AV -- we had a $12 LLT on WAVX from the newsletter which triggered the exit. You and I discussed this stocks and you had a lower price than I had so I decided to follow this down to the bottom and look for the uptick. The position is small but with it closing at $9, I have a LLT inplace at $8.50 just in case. Autopilot with autolock of profits. I think they were over sold in this last few days of market mayhem. Same holds true for BCST that we were watching for an entry at $120 or below. We waited and waited and finally today in dropped to $101.50 before turning, what seemed to be a corner. Entry at $110 looked good since it hit that level a few times. So, in for the ride. We had a sub $60 entry for UBID but most of us did not act on it, even though it dipped to $54 intr-day. for the most part we are being defensive and picking specific stocks that we have previous targeted and determined entry prices. Patience is paying off. AV

Wavx I have not checked into Stock Swap for quite some time. TraderX - you helped me make money a while back with PIXR, CHSE, MRVC and a few others. Thanks. I was pleasantly surprised to see WAVX as a topic of conversation. My first purchase of WAVX was in December, 1996 based on a tip that was posted on the predecessor of this board, Shaun Murphy's Stock Picks (?) thread. I would like to go back to the archives and see who made that tip. Does anyone know how to do this? In any case, I was fortunate to buy a lot of WAVX just after the delisting back in 1997. I am keeping 50% of my holdings long term, and have now traded the other half three times. So far so good, which is lucky since I am not a very good trader. Cheers, Daniel
