Dale: What do you think of PDSE ? It looks to me like a safer way to get into Pokemon. Very few shares, very small float. Not yet noticed, just moving right now.

Hi Dale, You little ole daytrader you. Curious. How are your in and out trades doing rel. to the long term holds in the +50% category? I wish it wasn't true (cause it's hard on the system. I can literally feel my heart rate go up as I decide to make the plunge and as I watch the ratcheting up and down), but I am doing far better on the short term trades . My longer term "investments" like ISLD and VMIX were losers--out of both now. When you had messaged me, I had already gotten out of GRIN in my IRA before the close. I left quite a lot on the table, but it was really something. I played with EELN today. Found it late and only made 1 7/8 points on it , but it was for quite a few shares so it worked out very well. I watched NTRO today. Didn't play cause I was still feeling bummed about my large buy and sell orders sitting there the other day and ending up wrong on both ends because the MM wouldn't take up the slack. EELN is what I like. You make your limit bid, even on what is a fairly large # of shares for retail, and--botta boom--it's done. Same thing on the sell side. BTW, I think EELN may run some more. NTRO too since the market it's in is really in favor now. I guess I guessed right, but just a little early. I thought it would rest more. I'm gonna be watching in the AM. Anybody get in on NTOP? There's another phenom. that's also in a great multi-day run. Jim
