    Thanks guys...I appreciate the info (Dr.Evil voice).....I think i just revised my new years resolution to try and remove my emotion from this trading stuff.....and I have found that the more knowledge that i have the less emotion comes into play....thanks again.

    I guess you could keep buying shares in a declining market till the end of the month and stop when you get your 2 regular IFT's back...then let it ride into the new month.

    It's been that way since I can remember. Same type of problem with Stockchart's $EMW, only it doesn't store the volume.
    I'm looking for an entry below $EMW's 669, but I'll take whatever the market is willing to give.

    I am 100G and I am not as jumpy and cranky as 12:00 approaches.....I must not let myself get to comfortable with my 0.02% gains every day. This is so fun

    I sleep better at night knowing I'm sitting in G with 2 IFTs and I've done my homework.

    I am reaching the first test of my new resolve to remove emotion.......My emotions are telling me to jump into stock but my numbers are screaming " steady big fella".
