    It makes sense, but in reality how many people are gonna take the job when you say, "we'll give you a salary, and talk about a bonus in five years" Would you do it? I dont think I would. jim

    Trend or Range Day?

    I think #s 1 thru 6 are mostly true. The only reason I think this is because I have more or less read the same thing over and over for better than 10 years. Inside day, NR7, ORB. I have studied Crabel till my balls turn blue. I guess I am just looking for some proof. Does ANYTHING really...
