<<Keith, Michael Watkins responded to me today or yesterday (can't recall which) with a chart that showed that if an investor (not trader) had proper protective stops in--at two months earlier price (which I suppose, would be like two ticks earlier on a 5 minute chart for a trader) he would've gotten stopped out at 4400 on the NAZ.>> I know, I know....I have been mooling over charts for weeks/months now.....my only problem was I never wanted to get stopped out near the bottom, and I have thought a bottom was in place so many times, I forget what the hell a bottom even looks like now <ggg> Thanks.....

<<Today you unload them and you're asking what to buy next. Is that a good approach?>> Actually yes...I am in no hurry to buy....have eyes on several companies...will wait on price to come to me, however.....is not now the time to be doing my dd, to determine when and what I buy? I'm not asking for anybody to tell me what to buy...just seeking opinions.... Part of dd entails seeking opinions from others....lots of people know lots more then I.....although I make my own decisions, I will always take into account opinions from others and then form my own conclusion. I have learned alot from folks on this thread...both good things and bad things....good lessons and bad lessons........one thing is certain...knowlege is free and you can never have too much....so yes, I am always intersted in what others have to say, .....whether I agree or not, I prefer to hear all sides to the story.
