I don't know why I picked Goldman over HHH. One reason is that I bought on two days that the DOT was taking a hit so I was confident that the Entry Price would be pretty good. Then, too, I own QQQ and SPY....I may have been looking for something slightly different. Finally the entry $$ was below 19 bucks each time, I was buying so many issues from $80 to $180 that buying something under 19 bucks was practically a relief in a way. I don't know what BRH is, it certainly trades a lot lighter than the others.....by a factor of 10 it looks like. You know that sort of thing makes me nervous. Certainly it could be because it's a new issue. I don't even have a name up on the chart though. (Which may be a good thing, sometimes it's better not to know anything more than the symbol and the chart.) But I'll take a chance-----what is it? The listserver that had a member discussing Profit on is RealTraders. If you join then you may want to do what I do; I filter all the incoming mail from RT to it's own folder because the volume of daily posts is staggering. Sometimes 60 to 100 a day. Alternatively you can get a digest version which means you get all the mail but in only one message at the end of the day. The link for the listserver is realtraders.com
