    Hi boys

    I disagree with some opinions here that you should bail now just because you are down big. However, I think it will test below $5. I would get out on a rally, and buy back below 5.

    Jesse Livermore's trading

    with the bullish engulfing 2 days ago on high volume, and the high volume small range today, I would have to guess the stock is going to be volatile tomorrow. Perhaps it will do a large gap or an extended move. It also looks like it could get a whole lot more volume as well.

    100% CPU SPIKES ARE FROM YOUR CHARTING SOFTWARE. PULL UP YOUR CPU ACTIVITY MONITOR, THEN RUN YOUR MOUSE OVER YOUR CHARTS. this is due to some shitty programming. alternatively, u could have an oem motherboard, if not make sure your bi0s settings for grafik card is set right.

    What's the dumbest thing you've done?

    Early last year I put on a bear spread on GOOG @ 140. It gapped to 170 and then 190 in 2 days. I held. lost 7k I was doing it because I just couldn't see how a search engine could rip so hard.

    What is your single biggest fear in life?

    yes, I know my fear lingers. But, I live with 3 dogs. They are 1/2 pitbull and 1/2 something else. They are obedient, and nice dogs. I've also had a brown doberman with floppy ears and a long tail. my point is that its hard to know right away what a dog is thinking, unless you have been...

    What is your single biggest fear in life?

    Seems to me that this type of attitude is reckless. Fear is an emotion which is important to survival. To answer the thread, I'd say I have a fear of dogs. I think they will attack me. A small dog attacked me when I was 5. However, I wouldn't say this has had much impact on my...
