TSCN looking strong -Up 1 7/16 Starts trading on NASDAQ tomorrow! Also, TSCN I.R. told me to expect coverage from Monee, Crespi, Hardt & Co within the next week (NY firm). The CNBC.com site is up and running in beta form and will soon have their full launch! TSCN will receive 25% of the revenie from the site. TSCN will also have their proprietary trading technology out and running by next month. Globalnet will be using it in the U.K. (via Freeserve.com), Italy, and soon in Germany & France. Things are looking good! Also, the company had a nice MACD crossover, which reaffirms the buy signal! I am a newbie and have enjoyed your insight immensely. Keep up the great work.

Jenna-thoughts on when to sell? This is my toughest issue. I find it easy to have the discipline to limit losses. I also try to set 5-15% target prices and then the question is do I take the money and run or let it ride. I have sold early a lot and missed runs. What makes you hold an NDB for 60% over two-three days? At 25-30% I start to feel real greedy. I know that the basic principle is momentum--if it's there why sell. But momentum can change so fast, I feel a need to pocket the gain...sometimes that turns out to be sooo smart---sometimes sooo dumb. Having trouble telling them apart in advance. Have done very well as a Gemmer, I must admit, but know I could be doing so much better! TIA for your help! Jim
