Hahahah. I use GET too. I've also had that experience of forgetting I had something. I traded CNET dozens of times in the week leading up to its first split early this year. It put on nearly 100 points in a short period. On the day before the split was to take place, I sold at the close what I thought was my entire position. Lo and behold, the next morning, there were 400 shares I had forgotten about (200 presplit). The stock went up another 10 points or so and I sold those too. Talk about ill gotten gains!

Hi Richard Estes; Re the EBAY chart link you posted: mindspring.com I took one look at that, and started swearing. I think that listening to three audio sources, three monitors and a TV, and then trying to type faster than 22 year olds is easier than reading those things... Maybe now I finally know why I've never been particularly successful at chart reading. I've been listening to the audio chart links that have been posted with commentary on the S&P500s, and have found them fascinating, though. They say that scalpers almost always use the simplest charts. -- Carl
