Tim -- I agree. The SA thread has degenerated in the past month or so. I still pay attention to some of the "old heads" whose DD and posts I find to be quality, honest and helpful. Beyond that, it's getting to be just another penny-hype board. Don't know where all the new penny hypsters came from all at once, it seems.

Anyway, think I'll start '99 camping out here for a while. Seems like most of the "old hands" I referred to above have migrated this way. ;-)

Prosperous Trading!

Tim,

I know the internets are nuts, but I have done very well by them. But I have a very strict rule. Once a stock runs for a day I sell it and don't look back. I have missed some good gaps on that second and sometimes third day but I have also not been caught holding the bag - yet.

>>it's just to nuts over there, i feel like i'm standing in front of a craps table in vegas......this is not investing it's pure gambling and it will catch up to you...

Couldn't agree more, but it is fun to watch sometimes, never lost money just watching, but every once in a while a nice tidbit of info surfaces...I like to pour thru the messages for a few gems and act on maybe 3% of the tips, course I miss a bunch of huge run ups, but haven't had any significant losses either.

Happy Trading.
