Thanks for your interest Harry. My trading style is dictated by a small amount of capital. I need to make at least a 10% gain to cover commissions, taxes and a profit, or 5% if 3/4 of my money is margined. I have a day job so some days I can watch the market and some days I can't. So I do mostly short-term position trades. I'd prefer to daytrade but don't have the money yet to open a level II account. I have real time data on a free trial of IQ charts. So I currently watch the market with IQ charts open as well as 5 browser windows to access news, Silcon Investor, Clearstation, Company Sleuth, Jag Notes, my WIT Capital stock order page, and Quote.com to see the streaming bid/ask with the delayed charts. I just don't feel organized. I wish I could scan the market (maybe with TC2000 or web-based stock screener) and then have all the research I need in one place, such as watch lists that I could organize by industry AND a place to type in notes, news, charts, earnings calendar, analysts projections, etc. How does everyone else do it? Thanks in advance Ron
