>>>I imagine you use the simple method I do - simply buy the stock. At the very least it's always good for 1/4 point drop. :-) not a problem ... as long as your stop is 1/2 point below buy point <bg> the VERY hardest part of buying any stock is getting over that bid/ask... I have found that if you are trying and able to buy a stock at the BID, then it is because there are sellers .... hmmmm ... why are they selling? so I look at the trades going through .... if they are small sellers (trades at the bid), but mostly buyers at the ask (bigger trades) ... then I also want the stock at the ask ... in other words ... I want a stock that's going UP = buyers at the ask. Sue
