Hdrjr. Welcome to the "quick fingered buyer's club." "You drop them and we pick them up before they hit the floor" should be our motto. gg

I don't think of it as painful. I am buying at level that creates serious upside or downside but also one that I can hold through any but the most drastic downturn. I think this is a decent risk-reward point and I'm not risk aversive. If the econ gets a bleaker outlook I will reconsider.

I confess to having no technichal trading expertise. When it turns, though, I expect it will turn sharply if we get some good econ news. The days when analyst hype could turn it around are gone in my opinion. Most of the hype now seems to be on the "sell me your stocks cheap" side.

Good luck. Ed

PS Kodiak, we never got to the "The British are coming" point today and we are almost back up to the civil war. I hope to see "back to the future" before the year is out.

PSS There's no such thing as "whiskey running" anymore and drugs are too harmfull so all that's left is stock trading in a bear mrkt for the adrenaelin junkies. By the way I give credit to JQP and Warp as our two riverboat gamblers. Please don't notify your wives of this reward. They may not see it as the honor it is. gg. Ed

This market is **cking insane. All of the oils are down......why......economy going into a recession...right?! Then what the hell is driving the likes of MOT, INTC, JDSU, SCI and BRCM....I won't even get into the "semicaps".

Hey Warp good job buying your JDSU

Wow! What a comeback. I was part of the "humanity" this morning, down big. Now I'm up marginally. Had I not cashed in on some techs, I'd be up even more. It's now getting painful to look at that PMCS I sold. I suppose there is consolation in noting that volume on PMCS, BRCM, AMCC and VTSS are middling to slightly lower than average.

I'm saying that I want another shot at buying low. Congrats to those who bought at the nadir of panic today.
