A month's work following A@P: The following is a summary of the investment results by following this thread by me ( an average investor?) , read it just for fun: Me and my background: I have a fulltime job; however able to check this thread every 1 min or so, I should be able to pick up A@P's posts in less than 3 mins. I have accounts with brownco, datek, suretrade, and citibank. If I can not short from any of above accounts, I look for options or leave it alone. A 100% of A@P's pick is about 30k for me. Up to this min. I am net up (deduct all the trans fees) $7.9k on closed positions and down $6.5k on open positions (omga/cyoe), which means if I had closed all my postions today, I am up $1.4k. I am sure this is much wrose than A@P's track record cuz I could not get some great picks. Picks I played: navr,cyoe,omga,jboh,mhmy,pdx,bfly,nite,visx,nxtr,ktel,wcti options I played: qmane,qnaod,qmaoe,vsqcn,pdxof Note: sometimes I cover before A@P's cover and sometime I can not cover at the same price as A@P due to various reasons.

Here's one for future reference... From Briefing.com 4:50 ET ****** (DAYTRADER): While researching a story on the number of perilous Internet initial public offerings that are scheduled to inundate the market over the next several months, Briefing.com stumbled upon a company that, if it successfully completes its IPO, is almost certain to signal the last days of the Internet bubble. Efox.net Inc. plans to participate in Internet mania by bringing itself public in a self-underwritten offering. That is to say, if you mail founder Joseph Preston a couple of hundred dollars, he will set you up as a shareholder in his fledgling enterprise. The 28 year old Mr. Preston describes his recently launched "porn site" as an Internet E-commerce men's entertainment destination for heterosexual males between the ages of 18 and 55 that will tastefully package heterosexual men's favorite pursuits: Ladies, Automobiles, Sports and Stocks (what it calls the "LASS" factor for its male-centric content). If you find Mr. Preston's IPO scheme intriguing, just wait until you hear his plan to reinvent the world of adult entertainment The company plans to revolutionize the industry by offering its models a comprehensive health insurance plan that includes dental, vision and prescription co-pay programs, in addition to a retirement plan. Efox.net will also offer the models an equity stake in the company. In addition, the company believes it will attract beautiful models because it will contribute 1% of net income to the company's scholarship fund. The company will also sponsor Efox "getaway weekends" that include golf excursions, sailing regattas, auto racing training schools, deep sea fishing expeditions and the Efox "Born Again Bachelor Parties." Indeed, investors will have the opportunity to get in on the ground floor. Launched less than three months ago, Efox.net has generated no revenue. But the company does have debts. The majority ($675,600 to be exact) of the $712,497 deficit accumulated by the company arises from non-cash transactions involving the issuance of stock in exchange for services rendered. If the offering is completed as planned, Mr. Preston plans to begin paying himself a salary of $100,000 in 1999, with a 50% raise in 2000. Of course, if interested in becoming an Efox.net subscriber (to the IPO, not the Web site), it is likely that you'll have to call Mr. Preston when you want to trade the stock, as it is doubtful that a firm is likely to make a market in Efox.net anytime soon.
