Hi Stranger :) I have no idea where Susan is. We communicated for a bit after she quit posting, but haven't heard a word recently... Fred

I'm still here : ) So is Bob, we've just become lurkers for a change! Victims of SI burnout I guess <g> I do still post on Lee Lichterman's marketswing.com thread once in a while, and read the entire thread daily...the information posted there is invaluable, and contains posts by some of the finest traders and technicians around. But it's sure nice to see you and Bobby back - it's been too long. For you especially, it's been forever <g> I miss both of your posts. At least Lee and Fred and Connor still post : ) Even if it is about horseracing LOL. I've been mostly swing trading, sometimes holding futures contracts for weeks at a time. Only scalping when the action is ripe, and worth sitting in front of the computer for. Staying away from 5 minute charts and following dailies and even weeklies helps a lot as far as getting shaken out of a position is concerned. I have a wireless lap top now and often trade with a friend who's been trading the SPs for years. What an education watching him is! Bob's been very busy last I heard, probably, well, you know <VBG> Burjis I hear from regularly too!! Always with something to make me smile. I decided in order to have more time for myself - more of a life - that I had to give up something, and that was posting so much and following so many threads and websites, posters and opinions. I can't give up doing and looking at charts, as that is too important to my trading, it's my homework. So I update my public chart list regularly on stockcharts.com, and that takes enough time. It's even too much, I watch way too many charts, but it's a sickness I cannot control <VBG>. Since I trade on instinct more than indicators, I find not reading so many opinions - and just forming my own by watching charts, reading news and some newsletters, has helped my trading quite a bit. So has the relaxation, free time and SLEEP I gain from not posting all night long. And for a while there, I was the only one posting. That's not much fun... But if you guys come back and start posting again, I promise I'll stop by too. And maybe we can even get Bob back : )
