Dick- Thanks for the input. I'm still having a hard time figuring out the difference between a shakeout and a true buy or sell. I asked about waiting for the days print to finalize because the other day I made the mistake of buying BLDP near the end of the day because they had reversed. I figured they would be in X's. Well, you guessed it, it broke a box below right toward the close and stayed in O's. When it gave a sell signal the next day I bit the bullet and sold for a loss. (of course it has now recovered some, but I realize I never should have bought it in the first place). I'm still learning, but it's all starting to make sense. As a big risk taker it's making me more disciplined. Jeff
