Thanks Blue, but one thing i have learned in trading over many years is that, the more you know, the more you find out how much you don't know ... this is a humbling game, there is no fool proof formula, sure things go south, stocks wake up from long sleeps to huge momentum swings. There is no such things as worthless information, you have to take in as much info as you can to make your best guess on what's happening next. While you hope to make an educated guess, its still just a guess. Beware the voice that believes it knows everything, its either making bets with your money (broker), is trying to influence a stocks PPS direction (this happens alot in pinky land (either pumping or dumping)), or is too inexperienced to know better yet. Dabreeze hit the nail on the head when he said "There is nothing to say until a deal is announced." ... i wish i had more discipline and listened to him and sold more than i did on the last run-up but i got greedy!

Sulax, i will continue to support Knot's right to post what he wants without being bullied to stop. I think your idea of posting your Finra explanation immediately following is perfectly fine also. How do i use Knots posts? Well a quick explination is that i normally trade in 15 stocks daily, (tovc is by far my worst performer to date, and the one that frustrates me most). I use Knots post as a quick barometer for the day. In these quiet periods, i check out his post, if his numbers trend normally for the last week or so, i move on, if there is a spike, i chart Torvec a bit more in depth and see if i think anything is brewing momentum wise. That in a nutshell is what I use Knots post for, but others may us that information differently, information is power my friend!

Go TOVC! GLTA
