here are some helpful hints to remember! <G>

.12 does not equal 1/2
.14 does not equal 1/4
.18 does not equal 1/8
.38 does equal 3/8- sorta kinda
.58 does not equal 5/8
.34 does not equal 3/4
.78 does not equal 7/8

So how many trades have you screwed up because of this?

Me about three so far, but still playing tricks with my head for quick math.
