Tip of the Day Buy RAD and short CVS. You know that I am not in the habit of giving tips, but the above is exactly what I am thinking about now. Take a look at the 5 year chart of these two. It is astonishing. As is where RAD stands today in relation to its recent performance. So the questions is, do you think the above approach is a good one? ST

I believe you can upgrade your version either free or a minimal fee versus buying the new program outright. Current version is 6.52 and I love it but I may be easy to please. As you know TA is 90% the operator and 10% or less the software. Put 100 TA guys in a room and show them the same chart and you could get 100 diffrent interpretations. The main things I like about MetaStock are that it draws my forks for me easily. It used to be a chore for me to do it on my old software. What you are using now is probably as good or close enough as far as doing scans since from what I have seen, they are all pretty much the same. Still I like that I can have numerous scans available at the click of a tab and that they aer all programable. Short on time as usual and have to run, PS - I got a class 3 buy on our favorite beat up IT company, nothing to get too excited about but it is nearing a bottom IMO. I may dip in a little soon despite my view of the overall market. Not sure if I will go stock or calls yet though. Lee
