re; <<Hmmm... Just watchin' at the moment, but for someone like me who likes to fight the trend, AMAT looks interesting as a ST-LONG play here at $48.88, just a thought FWIW. >> Why not? Right on target again! damn, I am HANDCUFFED by this BS power margin call and have to just watch my long term hold erode day after day instead of at least having a decent chance on the daily action. By the time I can day trade again my long term 'conservative' hold will have my trading account crimped. Funny when it's a longer term play I don't put in the tight stops and then have to 'wish' it back up after it falls too far to be willing to book the loss since it is, after all, a long term play. May not be far fetched to agree with one of the feeling these days: 'long term holds with no stops in bearish market is for suckers.' thanks for the note! Good fortune! RO
