buy stops most of you know that I like to enter a position using a buy stop in order to hit one that is moving up but, I don't like to put the orders in prior to the open so that I don't get trapped in a big gap up; usually wait till 9:45 or so to see the tape then enter the orders also, if the are a lot of prospects I would not have enough buying power for all the possible orders and don't want to go in a lot of stocks at the same time to avoid all the above I set alerts on my list so I am "called" when my target price is hit or near; then I can quickly look at that stock and decide if I want to enter an order a few for today if anyone is interested: ALK 34.75 AXP 70.25 FDX 49 FNM 58.125 FNV 42.125 GE 78 GM 56 JPM 86.50 LSI 12 3/16 MER 56 REV 35.375 TBR 51 TDW 25.125 TRV 40 TXI 33 VLSI 8 VTS 17.125 WLA 69
