Guidelines new strategy: well, after selling off three different stocks this past month, then watching them run up to over 40% each - I am changing gears - I am going to stop trying to be a day trader and settle on stocks that I know are sound, prices are low, will definitely go up, set the sell orders for a reasonable profit (30-40%), stop futzing around playing musical chairs with tickers, wait for each position to go high and sell off. - enjoy more time away from this darn computer, my ADD is killing my profitability. This does not mean I will not play a runner, just going to place 60% of my bank on 1 to 3 week holds. I will keep everybody posted on how this is going for me. Happy weekend
