Dan, the following was taken from the January 2002 issue of AAII =
(American Association of Individual Investors) they monitor many trading =
strategies each year.... does this data say that they didn't lose a dime =
over the past 4 years???
Here's your data:

So far, the growth-oriented screen that follows the William O'Neil =
CANSLIM approach has shown some of the most consistently strong =
performance gains: 53.5%, 38.0%, 36.6%, and 28.2% over the last four =
years.=20

portfolio since March 2000. Even if they played it to the letter. I'd =

someone could run the bonefide break out stocks since March 2000 and =
we'll see what the numbers are. My moneys on more than 11% loss.

    David and all,

    Here's another statistic to add to the discussion:

    According to Bill O'Neil, "80% to 90% of investors lost 50% to 75% =
of their equity" since the bear market began in March of 2000.=20

    Ask yourself this question--"am I one of those statistics, or, as a =
result of following CANSLIM did I *keep* at least 80-90% of the value of =
my portfolio since March 2000" If you were following CANSLIM during the =
last couple of years, your answer will be "YES!"'

    I truly believe that the stocks you *don't* buy are just as =
important as those you *do* buy.

    Katherine

      since people are talking about honesty; is canslim the best =
system? that is what alot of people would like to know. that is why we =
would really want to know how much did you make using canslim last year =
or past years. i don't know if canslim is really the best system, i have =
never used it during a bull market. i have 7 figures available to =
trade-so i trade in 1,000 to 10,000 share lots. i might have made $50k =
last year but i traded very few days, cut my loses short, took small =
profits, and was lucky on most of my trades. actually trading mutual =
funds in past years have been easier since i could use all of my capital =
in one fund. talking about traders with large amount of money not =
trading canslim, how about WON stating in his seminar ads that his =
in-house money management team produced a return of 1,486% from 1998 =
through 2000. is this hype? i wonder how many shares of stock they trade =
on how much capital? when WON states that type of return--it sounds like =
canslim is worthy of the best system. i sure would like to see that tax =
