I'm not a exactly a day trader, but I do day trade once in a while..
most of the rules I read on your thread can be extrapolated for
position trading..
----
I still work and make more on my job than I can hope
to make in the market, but I enjoy trading when I have
time.
----
My style developed over time and it's not some real hot
get rich thingy.. some of it is a carry over from the years
I spent at the dog tracks ..I even have my own way of
looking at the odds offered on my longer term stocks.
----
The last real good odds I got was during the OCT panic..
----
Well I got called on my XOM today..by rights I think I should
get the dividend..it went ex today..and being it won't settle
until the 13th..I see myself as the holder of record ..I guess
I'm going to have a shitfight with Waterhouse.

Hi Eric:
Although I'm not a great contributor to this thread as are those you mentioned, I'm still here. I remember the thread dinners you organized at several of the Online Expos - Ontario CA and NYC come to mind. I hadn't been to any of the shows for several years, but did go to the show last month in Chicago. I found it more upbeat than I expected. I didn't run into too many of the old timers I remember, but did manage to have short conversations with Tony Oz and Toni Turner.

Best regards,
Alan
