Hi Sammy, I was using Steve's MVP for a short time and got burnt by cross-opening prices and have been just mostly licking my wounds. I have watched NERS and many other short time systems and tried them in the past and have been trying them a little since the cross-opening fiasco.
I am about ready to bite the bullet and try MVP again. I really don't wanna switch brokers, BUT, I might have to. I like TDAmeritrade because they have a local office. I feel like IB and others may be more likely to DIE, if brokers are tied into the mortgage crap. It may be a false sense of SECURITY, but I have more faith in TDA than some others.
The Ifs, Ands, and Buts, always seem to catch me!! Gleno, Freemarkets, AND MYSELF are always Bad Omens when we follow some system or whoever. I usually start to follow a system just as it HICCUPS or tanks. I was afraid that I would tank MVP, BUT, MVP did OK, I just got tanked in spite of MVP being a winner.

EDIT: TDA insists that they have hardky nothing tied to subprime BEAST -- MAX of 3.5% in some money mkt funds, and none otherwise. Just have always trusted them in those regards.
