GVA.. Oh no.if anything this would be an earnings plays around November 4th. I try to make it clear that I don't position trade. Position trades or short term trades in the last 2 months have been a money losing proposition. I sold off my long term portfolio mid-september, as I posted, saying that I used 3-4 rallies to get back some profits and then I sold everything. I did have a handful of stocks during the two week rally in September but sold those off as well. Since then I sell positions at market close but kept about 15% for 1-3 day holds. In the last few days even 1-3 day holds have not proven that profitable. Now I won't even keep them overnight only under rare and special circumstances.
