Jeff, I read the "M" the same way you do. But when I see a stock running strong despite the market trend, I will buy according to O'Neill's principles. Only 3 of every 4 stocks follow the market (his theory) and I don't short or trade options, so that's where it's at for me if I'm going to trade at all. Regards, Lynn

Jeff, all through the past month, your response to an earlier post of mine has been running through my mind. I posted some optimistic ideas about short term investing in SEBL and BEAS based on William O'Neill's investment strategy. You asked me what I thought about the "M" in CANSLIM (translation, why the $^%#@$ would you invest long now, if you analyze the trend of the market?). I pretty much said that I was hellbent on investing right now, irrespective of current market conditions, and only 3 out of 4 stocks follow the market anyway, right? Having invested (and lost some money) following my own inclinations, I am ready to acknowledge defeat. And to say thanks for helping me open my eyes to a lesson I hope I've learned. Regards, Lynn
