GeneM: I ran a number of portfolios designed off Graham's simple low p/e and high dividend approach for years. It proved to out perform all the indices year after year. Still the best way to go for the long term equity money IMHO. Cheers!

Gene, I appreciate your expertise and if you can expand a little further about using just 3 MA's, 5 day, 10, day and 50 days.Do you look for them to cross or are you just looking for tops or bottoms as entry points?? Currently, I use Worden's Telechart and have my settings on 5 and 7 day stochastics with moving average's of 20, and have 2 envelopes set at 10 and 20.I also have my TSV set at 12, as that is where institutions have theirs set.I know that these settings work for longer type transactions, and usually buy at the bottom, get a little run up, and then sell covered calls against the stock.This gives you a realistic return per year of anywhere from 30% to 50%, which is fine for anyone with enough money,but is not a very good method for daytraders, and since I'm planning on daytrading soon, I'm trying to gather all the information available. Thanks in advance Buzzy

GENEM: If you're as good a trader (and I would bet YOU ARE) as you are articulate in explaining a difficult subject . . . in a very easily understood illustration . . . I have no doubts that you are one of the most accoplished traders I will have the pleasure of bumping into. If I may impose upon your generousity once more . . . ? I would like to ask you where I could find a site that I could use to plug in a chart with the 3 MOVING AVERAGES: 5DAY, 10 DAY, 50 DAYS. And perhaps what software, if any, do you think I should take a look at? Appreciatively, Jaytee

Hello Gene, Have you tried 17 day timeseries MAs? Regards, Bill PS Or, God forbid, 144 day timeseries MAs?

Gene: Very impressive with your three MA technique. Would you please point out what kind of prices you used, high, low or close? On the other hand, is it a right entry point for RADAF? I have tremendous position in this sock. However, I intend to add more due to the recent volatility in the high tech sector.
