RE: "Do you use a special trading program?" Gottfried, No. I'm unsophisticated with my trading. I watch the daily chart. AdvocateDevil

G: when I move in and out quickly, which I do a lot, I use Schwab's "Velocity" program and watch their streetsmart pro for real-time quotes. Velocity is wonderful. It gets immediate response. It cost $10 per trade (up to 100 shares) if you are a frequent trader. I have been buying in small quantities with each 1 point drop and increasing the volume as the drop increases and sell when the stock goes up few points. Last week and this week I have been buying amat and mxim 100 shares each for one point drops and increase the volume as the stock goes lower. This morning I sold it all. This I do with less then 20% of my portfolio and when I beleive that market is stuck in a range. kdavy
