well, honor, i am new, but tim convinced me that it is good to have a variety of trading skills to be successful... some days seem naturally long days, and other days short days...

and then there are the position plays to hold and forget about... until they are halted!! <ggg>

it is important not to get into any one play too heavily... good to spread things out a bit...

so we'll see... just starting out, i'll let you know how it's going... but i will say that those i know who short seem to do very well at it...

kathy :)
