Hi Ivan, ACRT -- interesting you mention the $16 range; my system gave a sell signal Feb 10. (the signal is called TDPOQ -- Tom Demark Price Oscillator Qualifier; applied to TDROC-- Tom Demark Rate of Change oscillator...if you want the gory details on how these things are constructed and interpreted I'll be happy to provide them) -- at that point price had closed at $16.75. Glad you got out with only a 1/2 point loss. So far, that has been the last signal for ACRT. According to TDROC, ACRT is now in EXTREME oversold zone, which dictates waiting for ACRT to return to neutral territory, THEN register a MILD oversold signal before buying (TDPOQ just perfects the signal). So waiting on the sidelines at this point is really the most prudent thing to do, but I'm looking at my ACRT position as an up to 3 month long hold so the exact timing for me isn't as crucial. Just FYI here are the last 10 signals my system generated for ACRT -- you can see it has done pretty well: ACRT TDPOQ SIGNALS --------------------- TDPOQ Signal:[BUY] 970429.0- \| O:11.63\| H:12.13\| L:11.38\| C:12.13\| V:84500.0 TDPOQ Signal:[BUY] 970612.0- \| O:13.38\| H:13.75\| L:13.0\| C:13.5\| V:94900.0 TDPOQ Signal:[SELL] 970626.0- \| O:13.13\| H:13.5\| L:12.63\| C:13.5\| V:159300.0 TDPOQ Signal:[BUY] 970717.0- \| O:12.19\| H:12.63\| L:11.38\| C:11.5\| V:129100.0 TDPOQ Signal:[SELL] 970902.0- \| O:17.0\| H:17.25\| L:16.5\| C:16.69\| V:156600.0 TDPOQ Signal:[SELL] 970912.0- \| O:16.38\| H:16.5\| L:15.88\| C:16.0\| V:122600.0 TDPOQ Signal:[BUY] 971030.0- \| O:20.13\| H:22.0\| L:19.63\| C:20.56\| V:331600.0 TDPOQ Signal:[SELL] 980107.0- \| O:24.5\| H:24.5\| L:21.75\| C:23.0\| V:285700.0 TDPOQ Signal:[SELL] 980204.0- \| O:18.25\| H:19.63\| L:17.5\| C:19.13\| V:411500.0 TDPOQ Signal:[SELL] 980210.0- \| O:18.25\| H:18.38\| L:16.13\| C:16.75\| V:878300.0 This is also verifiying to me that I jumped the gun on buying ACRT. I bought at 12 3/8, 11 13/16, and 11 1/8. So, I'm close to even at this point. One that I'm in that I think has potential is ENPT. I see 10 3/4 providing some nice retest support. Pretty small float on this one too. miss talking stocks with you and Doug and Myron (and sergio, instock, jim, etc...) hope to be back soon.... -dave
