The question is can you make $700 every trading day consistently. Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. You should re-read my post. I said I average $700... I have taken all costs into consideration. It is real simple... get a table of the open and closing price of MSFT over the last year. (Yahoo has it for free) Make a simple spread sheet that subtracts the opening price from the previous days close. You will see that MSFT gaps up an average of more than a point a day. Buy at the end of the day (actually at 9 mins before the end of the day) and sell at the open. It does NOT average out flat. Not even close. I also believe in long term holding of MSFT. AS in today's WSJ-- "A Microsoft Investor Proves That Buying And Holding Pays Fred Housel bought a few hundred Microsoft shares more than a decade ago and held on to enough of them to make himself a millionaire today.
