<<I have not been whip sawed like this in years...>>> LG: On my end I can`t talk about years like you but I understand what you are saying. Since weeks I am doing ok with my little neuro program which works fine for me. So besides my long term gambles and speculations I am working on the YHOO spread every day. Yesterday the indicator for the low showed 95 and a high of 119 to which end I went short and started to count the beans as the day progressed.( 95 is way out of line with the normal program forecasts- which seldom exceed a 15 point spread.) I stayed short until I my head got crushed around 15:30 and I am still short. Now in my program I have a component incorporated which goes along the line "Think like a criminal " which in turn is tied to the movements of the COMPX. YHOO is married to that index but late today after a very good number of "sellers" did their deals and the stock reacted accordingly namely downwards. But when the index picked up speed for the home run YHOO did not follow in in a hurry as usual but instead idled around. After hour trades are not impressive either. Even so EBAY reported good results which should help. Now I am not asking you if I should cover or stay the course but simply this: "Is it possible that thinking like a criminal is actually not the way to go but presently one must be criminal insane to make a profit."???? or Or do I overlook something here? Regards, ED I think we are dealing with monstrous neuro network computers located in the basements of relatives of big AL in Chicago Heights.
