Dan re your comments about shorting, the downtic rule, etc there are rules in place to stop people from doing all or most of those things but some brokers still allow it plus it is almost impossible to enforce when people use multiple accounts, say long in an IRA and short in a margin account, or use multiple brokers for the long and short you used to be able to short at will on downtics in the ecn after hours market but that has become more difficult with many brokers now in any event, someone will always find a way to circumvent the rules additionally I understand that there is going to be a trial on selected stocks to eliminate the downtic rule I have no details on that at hand

Dan, I have this thread bookmarked to see what you have to say. I find your honest opinions are more accurate than paid analysts. I don't want to participate in the Z trading but I like to read the thread for the valuable comments that get posted by you and others. Steve
