CMGI.. so you're long CMGI? finding it from the list could not have been that easy. I'm wondering how to make a list like that, Can't I just take the top 40 stocks from IBD's most active list from Friday? Pretty much same or better results.

Lastshadow or Jay,

I've read through the principles of the gap trading methods. i would like to paper trade it to learn a little more through practice, but would like some advice on: how do you determine the selling point? do you hold for more than a day? is there a ranking of the gap methods in terms of preference or profitability?

Thanks.
