DavidG HAL was his own computer and runs in real time, That is tick by tick ! HAL is very simple in concept. HAL tries to catch mini-momentum moves in MU Let me give you an example If MU is going down And if SOX is going down And if TXN is going down And if the weekly trend in MU is down And if the monthly trend in MU is down And the US 30 year bond is going up And the Nasdaq is going down Etc,etc,etc....I am always updating this with new info , like CPQ has been going sideways for awhile,etc ............................................................. Then what is the probability that MU will go down 1/8 point, 1/4 point,etc,etc 1 point....and even 5 points ????? ........................................................... I try to play when the probability of winning is greater then 80% .............................................................. So as a good time nears I place "stop" "limit" "stop limit" or market orders. And the number of shares traded changes based on the probabilities. Now if everyone had HAL signals, HAL would not work. If I posted a message...go long at XXXX, my order would have to complete with everyone's order (g) So HAL must remain "not for sale" I feel the big houses like MER have programs like HAL. But I only have to move a max of 5,000 shares. Larry Dudash
