Hi Dave,

Welcome to the CANSLIM group, sorry about the loss, and you may
want to go back and review HTMMIS on holding positions at a major
loss. If this market stabilizes, and turns north, you don't want
to have your capital tied up in losing positions unless they show
signs of leadership.

DGO is shorthand for Daily Graphs Online, the online version of
the Daily Graphs books, both like IBD are Wm O'Neil products.  It
is a subscription service, expensive if you are used to getting
everything free on the net, but provides genuine WON type CANSLIM
data on a daily updated basis.

Home page is http://www.dailygraphs.com/home.htm

Earl,

Thanks so much for the spreadsheets.
Obviously you're busting your butt putting this information
together.

I am relatively new to investing and new to CANSLIM. I've been
reading these
posts for about a month and have read HTMMIS.

I have found several members talking about DGO. Can you tell me
what the
site is? I am under the impression that it is similar to
stocktables.com and
would like to have a site available that sorts data like IBD.

In addition, I was attempting to analyze the numbers in your
spreadsheet and
would like clarification on a couple items.

What is the significance of the pivot, 5% and 20% down numbers?
Is the pivot point a point of resistance to watch for?

Thanks, Earl, I wish I had found this group before I invested
some cash in
April....I'm down 35% since mid March ...all tech stocks...

I think you said you were 100% cash, but I'm holding, hoping for
a rebound
this fall...
