Bo: Crummy day for my stuff, which happens now and then. But think I finally foundwhy I cant live with Intc.(and similar big stocks) Intc needs a long-term attitude. It only gets my attention after it has gone up steadily or has hot news items, and so I am too late for the trough. It is (IMO) under serious control by people who almost never lose- run it up and sell CC's, then take it back down a bit and repeat the sequence. My present problem is a mental one -being caught(in recent days) between winning money that is still invested, and deciding what to do with the winnings. Putting the money into stuff like Intc is not going to work for me, although I can hold Dell even if its slow. I wish there was someone in a (financial) position close to mine to talk about this, but there is no one I can find that is. And even if there were, his goals would surely be far different than mine. No one forgets the boom and the crash, which makes one worry about winning, and a subsequent loss. So KG$ is probably right about 2k and 10k being tough barriers to break. I happen to downplay market levels a bit,since I have been able to win regardless of the recent market volatility. So I played the safe " Pass" Line for two days,and rolled craps. Gimme back the dice so I can go back to betting four the hard way or play the Field (my favorite bet) Sig
