Website But first - Sue, I sold TWA when it hit my stop loss, like I would with anything else. Better to be broke and disciplined I always say...I have been tempted to forgeyt my rules, but whenever I do, i get slaughtered, so I'll take a little pain daily instead I guess. I have posted several new files (the blue buttons are new)to the website at: home.earthlink.net Two of them are provided by Gary Walters, a long time net-acquaintace of mine. he wrote an excel macro/web query kind of deal for updating Mutual Funds/401k spreadsheets (MS Excel). I ran all the Macros - no viruses or bugs. Nice work. Also, I have loaded an explanatory document and a collection of about a dozen or so GIFs of the Mutual Fund/IRA/401k trading strategy I use. Basically it tells me when to move funds out of the market ind into fixed funds until downward correction is past. If I ever get the time, I will get the software finished that does this with a nightly download (manual, webquery or service download). I have a similarone for stocks, but its not finished yet. Basically, on 25 mutual funds it provided an average of 50% (high of 137%, low of 10%) return in 6 months - the funds themselves averaged about 31% on a buy-and-hold basis (high of 88%, low of -20%). Funds included were Vanguard, Fidelity, Dreyfus, Janus, ProFunds, Munder, Potomac, Berger, Benham, Spartan and American Express. Types were index, Growth, Growth and Income, Value, Bond and Specialty Sector (Computer and Health). lastshadow
