Well, I am sure both you and Olu are right, and thanks for commenting; really! I am really learning here; got to start somewhere. Actually once I have a small short position (for stocks such as Amzn, and now Yhoo), I "dare" to trade against the short shares. Otherwise it's "very difficult" to just "buy" due to MO.

Regardless of the money involved, shorting a stock on a breakout is the worst form of trading. Dell, AOL, Cisco, Microsoft...none have reached new highs yet, but Yahoo has. Thank you! william. That's what I was trying to tell Jan. This morning was the easiest day of the whole year to make money!! AOL, YHOO and CMGI were layups! All breaking above resistance on volume!! --Olu E.
