    Not sure what to do, any help appreciated

    It really won't make any difference since you're holding them for a month or so. Use limit orders, that way you don't care when they get filled, the important thing is that they get filled at the price you're willing to pay. Don-

    Looking for company to buy fast computer .

    The only thing that I would add to this is that Dell customer service absolutely sucks!!! All you have to do to find out for yourself is to call them and ask a simple question, that is if you can understand Hadji from his workstation in New Dehli. Don-

    Why do I cause panic on Nasdaq each time I trade?
