KM 14 1/8 for a position play ... several weeks risk:reward is good here risk 12.50 return 20 had a positive trend before the overdone correction. The last week it bottomed at 12.50 This am calls for a weak opening ... many stocks will gap down ... KM will probably be among those that gap down a little. If the market shows signs that it will be rebounding ... this will allow good entry in KM Watch for entry at/about 9:45 ... 13 5/8 to 13 7/8 (tentative buy target) ... as it rebounds quickly after the morning profit taking. disclaimer ... currently holding at 12 9/16 Sue ps. all bets off if the market does a tankola

Morning Gaps: None of the stocks I follow closely had clear gaps today. The following nets did gap down, but I haven't traded any of them since the spring (which is why I have enough money to play this game!) AMZN buy 74 7/8 short 70 1/4 LCOS buy 24 1/8 short 23 1/8 XCIT buy 26 1/8 short 25 Others on this thread: Please...if you pay any attention to my numbers at all, use them to learn from, not to trade on. Jay

Lastshadow, Regarding gap strategies... I must have missed the original discussions... can you point me to the beginning? I'd really like to understand how to play gaps but have not seen a coherent explanation yet. My basic reading (Elder) describes several types of gaps, some with expectations of continued directional movement, others expecting a reversal. Can you relate this to trading techniques at open or end of day?
