ALL: FYI Today finsihed at 34 7/8.. Enjoy (now you don't have to piss around with those delayed quotes) Wayne: I'm a bit pissed I missed selling my stuff at 35.5, but I'll settle for making money on my shares.. (sold my "trading" stock at 35 1/8, but then I moved some of the money into a couple of other stocks that just managed to break-even for me, so I'll see about tomorrow) Steve

I am using Schwab and wouldn't allow buy/stop on VIAS. I once tried to put in a stop loss on a y2k company ALYD and they wouldn't allow that so I inquired and they said companies must provide certain paperwork which allows for stop losses to be put in. If they were wrong about that someone please tell me as it cost me a lot of money not having it in place. perhaps buy/stop work the same way? By the way Wayne VIAS broke down after I posted so taking your advice and watching what happens when it sat at resistance all day without buying was good advice. Now I will wait until it breaks 6 1/2 before adding to my position. It seems contrary to what you would think to wait for a stock to move up before you buy. By the way I am not hyping VIAS to anyone so please don't take this discussion as such. It has moved from 2 3/4 to 6 1/4 in the past couple of weeks, but then you all have COMS so no need to make money elsewhere. LOL
