hi Stefan; OT Maybe that's why I keep mislabeling it M+S, don't want to remind myself of the Market's casual cruelty! (or, anthropomorphized, pleasure in inflicting pain & alas - presumably of those receiving it) >>>(consider myself still a beginner ) I don't even feel prepared to short, so you can imagine what I might consider myself (at times)! Have noticed you mention leaving money on the table. One of my problems is the opposite - trying to let the winners run which, in this choppy market, gives me instead plenty of losses to cut! It's like ouch, ouch, ouch. Am trying to work on this. Glad you mentioned RMBS & HIFN (doc's tax deduction; he needs one with so many winners, but by tax time it may not be a deduction). I went thru the additions at warp speed (in order to decide whether to add them to my database), duly noting I hadn't done a very good job picking up on the rip-roaring IPOs. Otherwise (at warp speed) there were quite a variety of chart formations. Have never traded RMBS, but i think it just entered an intermediate uptrend. That's a good time to be watching. rainy Sunday here - Dorothy
