"this is not really the time to buy stock not unless you are a gambler and get a thrill out of losing money"
My percentage of winners to losers hasn't been this high in a loooong time. After being dogged hard work since Feb 2000, I'm finally starting to feel like its getting a bit 'easier'. It feels like a strong 'M' to me. And I'm reinforced in my view when MSFT can go up on the garbage outlook they gave last night - i.e, its nice to know that I don't have to lose sleep over broad-based panic selloffs.
Ian
PS - I 'bottom-fished' PENN at $10 just 16 months ago, and sold it for a wash, saying to myself: "bottom-fishing isn't CANSLIM, bottom-fishing isn't CANSLIM", in spite of their fabulous fundamentals at the time. The change in average-daily-volume since its real breakout at around $18 last April has been impressive. That's when I "should" have bought it - I suspect the fact that I'd sold it at $10 just 4 months earlier held me back - another valid reason for not bottom-fishing: it might effect your future trades!

Chris, if you all kicked butt on wall street-what has happened to that group??? personally,i like PENN, although it broke out this morning at 38.80. had a flat base than small cup with great fundamentals and high industry group. that being said-this is not really the time to buy stock not unless you are a gambler and get a thrill out of losing money. for every DFXI, there are many more that you will lose a lot of money on if you don't cut your losses. david -Original Message -----

Katherine, comments from a different angle, well put and you do make a lot of sense. I sometimes just get a little frustrated that we don't have a watch list, and we don't quickly identify breakouts to each other. Years ago I was part of another CANSLIM group and we really kick butt on wall street, we did have a watch list and we all immediately noted and discussed breakouts. I just have to realize that the dynamics with this group is different and not try to change things.
Your input is appreciated, Chris.
