Roebear, Thanks for sharing that strategy. I do tend to focus on the short term. More of a swing trader myself. My best trade this year was SSRI. I remember holding it from 2.9 to 6 and change. It took a very few days but I was SO tempted to get out way before I did. I know that kind of move over so little time is rare but I was proud that I did not give into the temptation to sell and pocketed most of the run. If I had that frame of mind during the I-nut boom, I'd be retired instead of taking paychecks. I do think I'm getting better though. Been holding XTO for almost a month now. You know what is going to happen now! Give me strength. Good Luck, Jim
