PCTL Allan, Here's the deal on PCTL. On 4/7, it became what's known as an Estecat, so-called because a former cat-fancier, Esteban, insisted that a gap followed by a close-to-close loss of 30% or more was just as good as a stock opening 30% or more lower than the previous close. We disagreed, I was right, he was wrong, and then I went to his house and killed him and had sex with his dog. In any case, he hasn't been seen since. PCTL is very playable: bigcharts.com It gapped 9.5% on 4/7, but it finished the day down 34.something% and has behaved like a nicuns little pusskins ever since. BTW, I'm currently playing an elongated version of a similar chart: bigcharts.com though I think I'd rather be in PCTL. Good find, and good persistence, BTW. I tried to talk you out of this one, but you were right, and I was wrong. But if you come to my house, please remember: The dog had nothing to do with it. Ivan
