<<That's a lot of commission for someone out there>> Not really. $12 a trade at Waterhouse. Yes, it was a fair amount of work, but I believe I limited my risk and profited nicely. If I had just held my core position the whole way up (originally bought at 30, then started playing short against the box games from 68 to 92 to lock in profits and avoid taxes)I probably would just be holding this incredible company at this point and not feeling the need the trade it so aggressively. Hopefully, I'll be able to establish a sizable core position at a price low enough that I won't feel the need to trade at all. Buying and holding is a LOT easier :) Jeff
