AV--they way I see it now with BRKS is as follows: I was in at $19.50 yesterday where no one could react and enter with me, the stock opened at $20.13 this morning, dropped to $19.38, and closed the day at $20.88, a quarter of a point below its high for the day. Taking some creative license, I would expect that no one would have bought at the open, but if they did, they are in at, say $20. At the close, there is now a 4% profit for the day. A case can be made for a higher percentage but all that were interested in BRKS should be in a profitable position for the day, which is the point we want to make. This is good given the direction of the tech stocks today. Exiting now is not such a bad day's work<GGG> but we may have a timely entry for this stock to leverage future gains. We also have a cushion before we are in a losing position and can easily exit at break even. However, 1000 shares at $20 would have yielded at least a $500 profit for the day, after commissions. Therfore, and I can't resist, the price of the newsletter was covered in this one day<GGG>. I think that is why this "pay for viewer" has many satisfied customers<GGG>. BRKS should be very interesting to watch given other market factors. If I were not a gambler, I would take 15-20% profits and run, expecially if you had never heard of this stock before and were taking a flier on it. why not, it would be easy money. I thought you might like the charts on DPAC. while just a TA apprentice, it did look like you might give it your seal of approval. I also think it is timely but it is more technical than TA. We have to have market mentality on our side until it gets to $5. There is money to be made from its price now to $5, but the real money does not come in until the insitutions, brokers, and managers can recommend this stock to their clientele. Based on certain "rules" these sub $5 stocks are taboo. So as much as I have DPAC as a flier, I am not going to get excited until it passes $5.<GGG> However, if we mount a nice spam or pump and dump campaign, post something on business Wire, and put together a better website, we might get those people who were disappointed with not being able to buy Webnode.com shares, to run up this stock<GGGGGGGGGG>. DEAR S.E.C - ONLY FOOLING!!!!!!!!! Andrew BTW - even though MKSI had a bad day, I was able to talk to someone who spent a few hours talking to their CFO. This buddy was so impressed with what he heard that he is going through the motions at his firm to give MKSI visibility to their own clientele base. Just look at all the consecutive years of profitability.
