Hi Tom, Steve, and All As we like to say at the shop, you can be so busy reading the instruction manuel that you walk off the edge of the cliff. i have tinkered with increasing the spread called for on the next buy. An example would be if the last buy was at 27, and the next buy was called for at 26 !/2, I would double the spread and place the buy GTC at 26. I would then change the buy safe to reflect the new price. This worked (and still is) with some and unfortunately I started too late in other AIM accounts and ran out of cash anyway. In my LTV account I was so busy calculating the buy points, I followed it into Chapter 11, for the second time. I don't know if this puts me in line for our coveted trophy or just a permanent sign on my back saying KICK ME!!!~ Just some thoughts. Scott
