OFF TOPIC Wayne: Thanks I am going to call schwab and inquire. I have a record of trying to put it in. By the way am learning by watching, and almost had a windfall this AM. I used to own MIFGY. Got out at 25 5/8. It's been trading between 15 1/2 & 20 for awhile. Up and down - up and down. Decided when it hit 20 I would short a little. It hit resistance the last few days at 19 so almost pulled the trigger yesterday, but decided to be patient. They preannounced last night and opened down over 7 pts. I guess it could have gone the other way in which case I guess your sell stop or stop loss won't do you much good. Risk everywhere. Watching VIAS again today. It has finally broken resistance at 6 1/2 but with a down mkt figure I'll wait a bit. I own some already so happy to see it moving up.

OFF TOPIC: Wayne, waited patiently for VIAS to stay above 6 1/2. Bought in at 6 11/16 and now it's hit 7 for the first time in a long time. Will be curious to see how this plays out. Will put in a stop at 6 1/4 as you would recommend I do as know if I put it in too close the MM will steal my stock. By the way you might want to look at SKYC. THIS IS NOT A RECOMMENDATION. I have been in and out of it for a while and have traded it as high as 14 It started moving back up from 3 1/2 a couple of weeks ago and now the volume and price seem to fall within the type of stock you like. Small float so very volatile. Curious what you think.
