Gene,

would you mind also sending me the St. Louis notes that you mentioned some
post earlier?

Thanks
Yien

tracked, charted, and analyzed stock after stock.  I poured through IBD,
jotting down numbers meeting my criteria.  I sifted through my stock
analysis service multiple times weekly (daily, when I could).  My fruits?
I was happy if I could make a couple of hundred on a stock after holding
for a couple of years or more (mind you, I usually just had 100 shares of
an issue).

watching one of her favorites, WMT, for some time.  Finally, when she noted
a short-term trading pattern and was fairly secure with it, she bought a
few hundred shares and sold out on a small move.  No long hours pouring
over all the numbers and details and everything else.  I couldn't help but
shake my head in wonderment.

We currently have positions in just two stocks, neither of which are
CANSLIM candidates, I'm sure.  We'll hold minutes, hours, days, or weeks,
depending on the movement.  At any rate, doing this, I usually make much
more in a trade than I used to holding on for years.  I don't have the cost
of various subscription services, and I don't spend overwhelming hours
pouring over charts and information (I never minded doing this some, but I
liked to see some fruits).  Of course, we couldn't do this a few years ago
before the discount brokers and internet access we have today.  But, they
are available now, so we try to take advantage of them.
