Iso.. As for philosophy here --- Having had the pleasure of running the '74 market, I'm using those dim recollections to play the "pops" in this market.. Buying very volatile stocks as close as I can to the most heavily oversold entry point I can find, and dumping into the big rallies.... repeat as necessary. My last major entry day was Apr 5th..... sample:

I added heavily to cash today in case we get something of a pull back that can be played for a trade tomorrow..
And I'll be pleased to be watching how you do ISO....which I'm sure is excellent, judging from the small amount of time I've had to check out the thread...
Continued great success to you....

ISO...Scallping is out for me, unless I can arrange a lower cost speedy way of getting trades executed. I have Schwab's "Velocity", and like the service, but not the cost. I'll upgrade to their "Pro" service with Lvl II and the fancy charting once I get a new computer with lots of RAM (and hopefully a higher speed line, somehow)(!)
Meanwhile, I have to make do with playing the "medium waves" in this cycle .... Oops --- just noticed that my entry date for this cycle was April 4th.... that other post on the 5th was reporting history. Here was my rationale on the 4th:

This was a nice little "bear market rally", was it not? --- Not as nice as the January pop, but we'll take the nickels as well as the quarters... <GG>
