the action after hours shows just how difficult it is to figure out this stupid market
on the initial csco release it ran mid 19's
and all the rest of the tech world ran up 5-10% with it

then with little forward outlook csco fell to the 16's
below the close
and the techies all dumped with it

PS to TT
agree that the WW is the best on the tube
actually something written for viewers with more than one functional brain cell
that open back black dress did detract a bit so of course I looked away during that segment

"real Zport trade"

I might do that ...
but
after due consideration, my attempts would most likely cause Dan to relinquish the book keeping duties back to you ....

I really know YOU know this
but
for the others on the thread who don't ....

here is my method of trading .....

a) set a stop
b) buy
c) move the stop, as frequently perhaps as minute by minute
d) stop is NOT set as MIT
e) set an ALERT figure as a prestop kinda dealie
f) alert stopper IS set as MIT
g) IF stop is hit and holds there or below for just a tad
------ THEN aa) sell
h) IF stop is hit and does NOT hold there or below
------ THEN bb) the whole position is put on RED ALERT and ANY signs of weakness makes for a sell

A) losses will be many, quick, and small
B) profiteers will be let to run -
------- BUT AA) stops will move UP with the profit
------------BB) and profits will NEVER be let to turn to losses

and
this can/will/would pose an accounting problem for Dan

I am considering a posting a separate Zfolio and me doing the bookkeeping stuff ...
but
don't know if I'm willing to do the work myself, to tell the truth .....
or for that matter if I'm online enough to make it function .....
