Robin, Sorry I don't know of one offhand. We use Quotron AE system in here. Many on here use SP or PCquote which offer ts&q, but I don't know a free site that does. Irby would cover this area much better. Regarding Don's comment about relatively young money manager's having not seen a bear or flat market, etc: 1. he's right, but add to it that even if you went back another 10 years to someone who was actively managing cash in the 1970's, you still wouldhave only faced one or two bear markets. The Crash of 1987 was erased in six months. Its about 6 weeks and we are getting back to previous highs. I am not saying the market will always move higher, I am saying that very few money managers have seen that many bear markets, enough that they have "experience" with them. As well, the whole economy, the technology infrastructure, the components of our GDP, our workforce, etc. have significantly changed since then. Bethlehem Steel is not what it was and Microsoft has a much greater impact on our economy that old Bessie. I know 40 year olds more green than 29. 2. Having faced or not faced a bear market does not mean that any of you or myself are not prepared for one or won't know what to do in one. That you don't respect and appreciate the potential for a downturn is simply bad money management. That you have misallocated your assets and are overly exposed to one bad sector is bad money management in a bull or bear market. The bull market just confused brains for luck. 3. The average age in the Marine Corp. is approximately 22. These individuals are trained, retrained and trained some more to handle multi-million dollar planes and to pilot multi-billion dollar aircraft carriers across our oceans and protect us at home. They are entrusted with protection a littlemore than our money, our lives. The best cardiovascular surgeons in the world are 30 to 34 years old, primed with the latest and greatest technologies. Don't confuse age with skill. Everybody have a good day. Regards, Steve@yamner.com
