fideltiy sends me a sp500 report every month or so.. im also using the Chartists newsletter for picks.. their latest purchase were emc, guidant, mbna, a 3 others that i cant remember. deep inside, im saying "screw the techs".. money can be made elsewhere. it's just too risky with techs imo.. one leader goes down, multiple repurcussions to other tech stocks.

Its important to consistently use one and try to optimize values based on the individual stock or index's apparent cycle and typical trend range. One idea is to forward weight a moving average so that you increase by a small amount the current price action. This will let your crossovers tip more quickly when volatility increases. Jim
