Smith wiped out? Sounds an omen of what's to happen to TSCM... I never use margin. Shorters can thank the margin buyers, though.

Good advice Tony. Margin is like taking markers at a casino. Just need one margin call to change behavior. At least I had two other accounts. It is April Fools Day. I wouldn't put it past TSCM to run a joke to see the reaction. It would get alot of press and maybe subscribers. Jack

Anthony! Overall I agree with your advice on buying on margin but I've been extremely successful when I do it. I will buy only a co. that: I have been tracking for at least 3 months a NAS equity only when the NAS is down over 150 pts. in a session set trailing stops beginning one point above entry cost, which will get me my investment back less commissions note: greed will absolutely KILL this equation! STOPS ARE CRITICAL! Profit no matter how small is profit! Kevin
