Sue, Some on this thread are "full time" traders, who can post their moves as they make them. Others, like me, are occasional traders, and so timely posting is not feasible. I'm lucky sometimes to be able to get a trade executed in the middle of the day (and sometimes I wish that I hadn't <g>) Posting your trades can be helpful learning tools, but I always emphasize that one must have his/her own plan for entry and exit, to follow the actions of another is very risky. And I mean that with no malice towards the reputable posters here, like yourself, but let's face it, when one trades, one is trading with his/her own money, and one must make decisions accordingly. That being said, when I see a reputable poster here enter a trade, and my own review shows that it looks good for entry, I may very well get in, but it will have been my decision to get into the trade. And when I do not enter the trade and the stock takes off, I always feel good for the trader that put the trade out there for others to see. And even though I will have missed that trade, there will always be another one. Peace and good wishes always, David
