Your post makes for an interesting read but it's a departure from your usual method.

Be careful with that.

Looks to me if I trade I'm going with the usual plan; wait for the rally to peter out and sell it for a scalp. I don't have time to focus on a Total Day strategy but in a few weeks I will. (Lots of golf & trips on the horizon for a month).

<Not sure why you are trying to file 15 years of paperwork.....>

I have positions going back to the 1970s. I sold a few things last year from the early to late '80s; finding the basis was a major pain. As for putting all this stuff in a box, well, when the time comes I still will have to sort it all out so I may as well continue organizing it now. Besides-----Man, they are playing "Mission Impossible" while showing AG walking down the street on television---- Besides, if I pass away without filing it they family will have to pay an army of clerks to sort it out anyway so I may as well put some order into the mess.

SI problems appear to be too difficult to overcome this morning;

Perhaps I will be able to post later, I have been trying to retrieve messages for around 10 minutes and still cannot. I had to "back up" to post this one.

Presuming I will be able to post this one, that is.

This, "SERVER ERROR; Server has 'freaked out'..." message is getting a bit like a summer re-run......
