And now Mark Barton has soiled the reputation of all daytraders.

Tom,

I am not a day trader although will do an occasional small trade to "live on the edge." I just find it amazing that the media blames the action of Mark Barton on day trading. I do not recall the name but a fello went into a McDonalds about six years ago and killed many people. That must mean fast food restaurants is a bad thing and not just for ones cholesterol count or weight.

Jan's trading probably markedly improves her overall performance, pulling up her long term portfolio! <g>

The male members of my family(a couple of them do have gun-collections) thinks that your investment strategy of "buying and holding NET stocks ONLY" is building one's future in the sand.
