Manish, I'll get back to you tonight. Busy at work. I just cleared all my longs from yesterday. I've got lots of work to do and must lock in profit to concentrate on work. A good shorting opportunity should be coming up again, early next week. Long only LHSPF now. Clint

Hi Manish. >>>Are you carrying short term positions into the next day? I did on Wed. but exited on Thurs, as I posted. I expected a good market on Thurs so I didn't want to sell too early. True assumption on all with the exception of YHOO. Still good profit. Most of my trading strategy relies on timing the market. I think you can make good money in short-term trading if you can time the market and pick the right stocks. As a rule, when I am VERY confident that the market will be going my way I buy a basket of stocks. Otherwise, I just take one or two positions. If you look at my trading history, you will see the pattern. Also, when I get busy at work I try to stay off the market. >>>My tendency is to cut and run to avoid being blindsided by >>>some earnings warning. I have done the same in the past and I agree with you. Will do mostly the same from now on. On LHSPF, there was no news. I think they had kept it low for a while perhaps because of this: biz.yahoo.com I got in on Thurs at 49-3/4 and out on Friday at 55. Later; Clint PS, I read some stuff about CS a while back. I'll post later.
