Thanks for the congrats. I was glad I had patience as the only drawdown I experienced was about a point and that includes the 1/2 point spread. I did something last night, I have not really done and it is very very basic. I printed out a 2 minute (not a 1 minute as it does not fit on one page, but a 2 minute does), a 5 minute, 10 minute, 15, 30, 60, 120 and 240 minute SPOO chart and a daily SPX chart. While half watching a show I studied the charts. You are correct about the longer term trend being up. It was very interesting. Any of these down-turns on the five and ten minute charts hardly show up as a blip on the longer term charts. This is not rocket science type revelations here, but I think you are corect....sometimes it pays to step back and see what is going on. Unless I get play-off tickets and somehow the Pack gets a home field game I am done for the year. My big game was the San Fran game. I have the Milwaukee season ticket package which is one pre-season and two regular season. My uncle gets first choice as the tickets were my grandfathers and then I get what is left. He usually takes the first regular season game as it is during the warmer months. If I win the post-season lottery I will decide whether or not to attend the play-offs....or if someone else in the family gets to go. This one will be tough, but I think we might come out on top even though everything would indicate a Minn win. GO PACK GO! -Scott
