re: Caution. Trading, especially on margin, without having a clue is a sure way to wave bye-bye to your money. Hillary is the only successful example I can think of. I don't/won't margin, did a few years ago and never got hurt real bad but got the idea I don't like the downside potential. I sold SNPX rather than give my broker the money to cover a margin call on CMAG I think, can't quite remember but ouch does that bring back bad memories, 1)broker(exactly what he made me), 2) CMAG, learning pain. Anyway after I sold the SNPX(now BAY) of course it went way up. I learned mostly through lost opportunity rather than loss itself but I learned. thank you for the help. jim
