Margin Accounts and SAR: All my accounts are margin accounts, and have been for years, so I apologize if my response to the question earlier on confused anyone. However, under the cash account rules, as long as you can buy the stock with funds other than from the sale of the same stock - that is if you had enough cash in the account to have bought it again without selling it, then you are okay I believe. Someone correct this if I am wrong, please. The Parabolic SAR is a Stop and Reversal pattern used when you are always in the market - either being long or short at all times. The 'parabolic' part comes from the shape of the curve. If the stock is priced under the curve, one should be short on it, and if the stock price is over th curve, once should be long on it. Most decent TA systems have this as a graphable function. If you have it and never used it, change the defaults from whatever they are to 0.005, 0.005, 0.5 and look at a few charts. lastshadow
