I see the market becoming even more volatile, with "corrections" such as the October one, and "bull runs" following, coming much more often, than in the past 20 years. ... Why? Cause it's "easy" virtually "anyone" can do it, anyone can play the market. My plumber, my electrician, my Ford friend, my pilot friend, a night waitress, and over New Years Eve, "many" people that I partied with ... asked "How do I get started with online trading". I warn them all ... that they are "fresh blood" then I help them with an idea of where to start. A true addict here ... there is nothing I love more, than to talk about the market. Every weekday morning at 7 am, I work out at the sports center ... the TV's line the wall ... quess which station most are watching? if you guessed CNBC you would be right. momentum ... the number of new traders is growing ... good for those of us with some experience, who know when to take the quick loss ... they will begin by tucking their tails between their legs ... till they learn ... till they are broke ... or get very lucky with a "big" score. so ..... I am not so sure this is just a "once in a lifetime event" on stops ... thanks Ron for the feedback on PEP and HAIN stops, I have great respect for your views ... you see much more in depth than I ... something that grows only with experience. average percent gain for me from Jan 1, 5 trading days YEEEHAAAAA +48% speculative Penny account +19% Trading 1 to 5 days +14% Long have to boast now ... cause ya never know .... it may be the best time I am able to ... key word STOP LOSSES a toast to a wonderful 1999, Sue
