Jan & Ken - Go out and buy next Tuesday Investor Business Daily, Page A29, (at least that is what my copy shows) is AD for Jeff Cooper's "5 Day Momentum Method" Order the book, cost $55. including Ship & handling. IMO you will find it well worth while. He also has trading software ($50.00) for Omega TradeStation and/or SuperCharts. There is also a web site that has his books etc, available at mgordonpub.com He has another book called Hit & Run Trading, but will not be worth while to you guys since you can't day-trade. Happy trades,

Hi Jan... Everyone can't be daytrading, can they? The topic says "Trading For A Living". Are you and I the only ones not daytrading... I doubt it.<G> I work away from home, myself. But, I have lots of flexibility and can pop back home 3-4 times a day, if I want to. One mile between office and home, and I'm in my car most of the day. With my cell phone I can check prices at every red light, if I wanted. But, I don't. I have used the phone to enter and exit trades while I'm going about my day. Do that a lot. I spend quite a lot of time each evening with my charts. I'm experimenting right now with the latest version of OmniTrader as a "prospector" of better trades. I also use Windows on Wall Street as my primary charting software. I just moved my account (still in the process) from Ameritrade to Trading Direct. I couldn't live with A-trade ignoring me half the time. My last trade there was a month ago. Took 15% out of EGGS in 6 calendar days. That's what I want to do about 3-4 times a month. Ken
