sell 10-20% and take a bit.........I'm going to doc doesn't matter what my gal says. The 12-18 month target is 45-50....by contrast Excites was 28-33.....they will be both in and out of those ranges during 1998 IMO.

I guess I good way to play them both would be to take profits in the ranges....and buy back more shares below with the same cash. I'm trading mostly tax free.....so that factor won't come into play.

But in Intuits' case I've had a heck of a ride up from 21.65 and your 28 for the time you've been in it, what a month, has been extremely productive on a percentage basis. I think it's prudent to take some of that money they've thrown at us....it doesn't get much better than that on too many trades. If you can average 50% a month doc....you'll do 600% next year.

You should open your window to include SEEK on you trading list...I've done extremely well with that one...basis orville redenbacker theory....I had called a buy on that at $8..48 hours before the big up-surge for some friends. However, as you know I couldn't play my own game.....I'm outa cash big cash until the 7th. But I am extremely happy for them..........they really needed a big one to close the year with good numbers.

Doc.........scratch what I said about selling any INTU.....LLLefty broke me up. I think what I'll do instead come the 7th is buy more Checkfree if it stays at 26-27. Then sit....and see which one backs off first...then just buy more. I just can't find a better long term combination. I want to plow at least 1/2 that land money in these 3.

I liked it much better when those guys were jumping all over me over there. But I'm also glad to see those that hung on get back into the money............. Do I doublespeak, gobbledgook?
