<< But keep in mind that the results are based on bid price, not close. Pick may not have moved today, and yet one shows a loss. After the first few days this initial anomaly will correct itself except for slow movers w/ wide spreads.>> Lesson #1: don't pick slow movers with wide spreads Lesson #2: don't short the big cap tech stocks like the Bald Man he shorted CSCO, DELL, INTC, MSFT - sounds like suicide picks. Lesson #3: pick KTEL Lesson #4: pick winners like Mr. Goldman
