No, the AOL reference was due to it's results being posted here. The article gives Dupont as an example.

TF+ gives one more flexibility than the ones I use. But I live with it, knowing it is not reality and it is relative only as a comparison of systems not the stock.

I would option for constant dollars if available.

Bob, yes, I did pick AOL because of its splits and trendieness over a long period of time. CSCO delivers even stronger results for the same system test.

It was all to spark discussion.

PS: Based on FA, there were plenty of times where I would not have touched AOL with a thirteen foot pole made out of non conducting material. Trading it unemotionally based on TA would have been quite profitable.

Would have / could have, I just use the tests to see if I'm headed in the right direction for the here and now.
