Stonehenge: I am just reiterating what you already know. I started watching minute charts of what I want to buy, when I have the time during my work schedule. Buying at the open is always high unless there was a bad news about the stock the night before. Selling at the open is one practice to consider. Around 11AM EST, prices settle down to more reasonable levels. Lunch time and the last 30 mts before closing are other time periods to look into prices. Sometimes these rules don't apply. When good news about a particular stock comes along during the day, I buy before market closes, because I know that the opening price for that stock is going to be high next day. Paul

Stonehenge, Funny, I did the same thing, only yesterday!! I think what Paul and others have said about timing of the trade has validity. I'm not really a trader (yet) and was glad for this info. What I did was put in a limit order for 77 1/2 around noon. Stock had traded just below this level earlier and was moving back up Thought I would not get filled, but within the last 20 min. it traded down, I was filled, and then it traded right back up! Was a little worried about the sell off so only went for 100 shares this time.
