Hi Rashid,

That was quick - 2 points from FLSH today, but before I could switch to other brokerage where yesterday's FLSH was bought, we were back down a point. So rebought today's position @ 13 7/16.

INAP entered at 9 5/16 - lot higher than I'd planned last week, but doesn't look like I'll get my < 8 entry soon.

Still in PSIX (fatal attraction?), WAVC, SBUX, BMCS.

Like you, my scans generally filter out NYSE issues. It's my recollection (which may be incorrect) that each NYSE stock has one (or sometimes a couple if very big cap) specialist that is required to "make a market" matching buyers and sellers or taking the opposite side of a trade when needed so order flow is more "controlled" than NAZ as there is not a plethora of specialists (like MMs) in a given stock. The addition of 3d markets may be defeating some of this order.

NYSE stocks that are trending strongly do make for good LT swing trades with less fake outs and head shakes. I've been in BA, WM, and PNC since early last summer and was in BSC LMT PSD and SPC but exited when trend slowed. (Should be out of BA, but I've too many friends that work there who keep telling me how good things are getting.) Was also in BLS, which had a "bad surprise" day that cost a lot of profit. Didn't worry much about the daily entry when I bought any of these. As the Beach Boys used to sing, "Catch a wave and you're sitting on top of the world" - <VBG>.

Peace and Justice --- Patrick

Rashid,

One more note, eSignal will be RavenQuote compatible soon.
See the following posts:

On the eSig thread:
Announcement - Message 15228710
A question of when -
Message 15230382
And the answer -
siliconinvestor.com

And on the RQ thread:
Message 15227878

IMHO, this would be a lot better feed than ATFI, but then I'm quite happy with eSig. Data is fast and clean. Support is very good. And just for any lurkers, I'm not a paid shill, employee, or anything other than a paying customer of eSignal, and probable customer of RQ <VBG>

Peace and Justice --- Patrick
