Ann thank you for you response.  I have seen that you are very =

  Nancy,

  I have felt the way you are feeling, and you are not alone.

  When I first joined this list about 1 1/2 years ago, I had very little =
idea what people were talking about, even though I had read WON's books.

  At times I would ask questions if I felt there was a remote chance of =
my understanding the answer, but a lot of the time I lurked. (And a lot =
of the time, I didn't understand the answers I got to questions--and =
still don't always!) Being a teacher and writer, I don't have much time =
to spend on investing, so my learning curve has been rather shallow.

  But I would just delete the messages I knew were beyond me and =
concentrate on the ones that were at my level. Keep reading WON's books, =
the lessons on ibd.com, Investors' Corner. I made a little CANSLIM =
notebook, with a section for each letter, for charts, industries, =
market, buy/sell rules, trading, and added to it whenever I had time.

  Now I have some idea of what people are talking about some of the =
time, but it's still not 100%, nor does it have to be.

  The more knowledgeable and experienced members of the list are =
incredibly generous with their time and knowledge, but they can't know =
what our background is. Also, we have to do the "footwork" ourselves.=20

  I love being reminded (thank you, whoever posted this today) that it =
took WON 3 years to get the system!!=20

  Don't give up!

  Ann

    Katherine-I know I said my last post on the subject would be my =
last, but please let me respond to your post.  First , you know I =
respect your knowledge greatly-as do others on the board and I hope you =
see this post in the spirit it was meant and not argumentative.   "need =
to develop mining skills"  That taught me a lot.  "many ways to mine"- =
that taught me more.   " tools and methodology are discussed"- almost =
always I do not understand.  When Gene sent his list today - once more I =
could not get it to show up on my screen and as always have not a clue =
why. " Veterans wouldn't use it anyway"  I can really see the importance =
of all the veterans ignoring each others work  even if the newcomers =
would eat it up and learn a lot from it -a definite waste of time.   =
"Did not filter"  - what the hell is that.  "Uploading" what the hell is =
that.  Linking mechanism and no longer build an auto link"  since they =
go hand in hand-what the hell are they.  I don't mean to be =
disrespectful-If you feel that I am, you already have an apology of mine =
on file.  I just want you to see, one time, what  this board looks like =
through my eyes. I'm pretty sure that Chris and I are not the only ones =
in this boat because you say three hundred people are on this list but =
the same few people post over and over about stuff that I guess  they =
already know because they don't want to even discuss other peoples =
stuff.  Please forgive me but I am not an engineer, or a lawyer, or a =
stockbroker.  I'm just a plain ordinary girl trying to learn a trading =
system and I am really thinking  I am  way out of my league on this =
list. God Bless the ones that   got the brains because apparently I am =
not amongst them.  From one of the other 275 people.  Respectfully- =
Nancy

      Thanks, Gene....glad you feel that way.

      I think the folks that would benefit most are the newbies (new to =
CANSLIM, that is)....but they need to learn to develop their mining =
skills as part of learning CANSLIM, so I think a weekly list would be =
more of a crutch than a help. There are as many ways to mine for stocks =
as there are fish in the sea, so finding a path that fits the person is =
far more powerful. There's often discussion on the list devoted to tools =
and methods for developing a personal watchlist and in the end is more =
productive than simply posting a list.

      The veterans have their own methodologies already in place and =
wouldn't use it anyway. I don't pay attention to any of the lists that =
are posted, but do get something out of the discussion on individual =
stocks and more general CANSLIM and investing topics.

      I've posted the hunting list several times before, but until the =
7/22 list, did not filter it for RS and relationship to 50 and 200 day =
moving averages before uploading. More than anything, the list was =
designed to provide links to charts and the CANSLIM evaluators and to =
provide a starting point if anybody wanted to start their own permanent =
personal watchlist. Unfortunately, IBD has changed their linking =
mechanism and there is no longer a way to build an auto link to each =
individual stock. My intent on 7/22 in filtering further for minimum =
technicals was done as a way to create some focus on what *might* be =
working given there had been some discussion on the list about that very =
topic and that the market appeared to be groping for a bottom.
