Profitable - demonstratong the compelling value proposition - new accounts are created by viral marketing, not expensive advertising 3.

Robert, I hope now you understand why I came down so hard on your desire to short SLR. Update: currently out of CMGI with a loss of 4 points however, in place were 10 puts which have already given me back those 4 points and more. That is what is meant by a hedge.. you lose one for sure but you can usually make the profit on your other position. Besides that BVSN is doing well and I'm long stock #5 March 15 earnings play so I'm now long #4 (going on second week) from March 16, #3 March 16. I played those same three last earnings with the exception being I held #3 and #5 through earnings but sold #4 right before and this might be my strategy this quarter as well. When you've done this for 2 1/2 years you get a feel for the stocks that come back quarter after quarter.
