Hi galtinvestor, thanks for the comprehensive reply. I agree with you that one needs to create one's own parameters, but it is more than useful to see what others are doing even if what they're doing doesn't fit your own thinking.
It's much like have multiple people read what one writes, it's amazing what other perspectives help one clarify one's own thinking.
I confess, I'm a bit jealous that you managed to latch on Lichello so long ago and I was cautioned away from being involved in market stuff from one minor loss of just over $200 as I figured I didn't understand enough to separate the pump and dump types from worthwhile approaches and had no friends to ask at the time.
Best,
Allen
