I don't sell before earnings, but I don't buy either. Why sell unless the
outlook is already poor? Many of the recent breakouts in this yucky M have
been on earnings surprises...just out of curiosity, how can you tell a
pullback from a b/o from a failed b/o?

Subject: [CANSLIM] Sending large files to the canslim group
Everyone,
There are times when you may wish to share large files with our group (i.e. gif, jpeg, spreadsheets, etc). Our list is configured to reject large postings (even if they are properly encoded) since the sheer volume has caused problems in the past. As an alternative, we have provided an anonymous ftp site. To provide your file to the group, please follow these instructions:
If you need some help doing this step, there are ftp instructions below.
2. Send mail to me directly at "owner-canslim@xmission.com" telling me the name of the file that you uploaded. I will move the file from the incoming directory, to the canslim directory where people will be able to download your file.
3. After I notify you that the file has been moved to the canslim directory, you should send an email to the canslim group describing your file, and its URL (i.e. ftp://ftp.xmission.com/pub/users/m/mcjathan/GreatBoom.gif).
Although this may seem unwieldy at first, it really isn't too bad and it solves more problems than it creates.
You should note that I do not monitor my email on the weekends as closely as during the week. Therefore, steps 2-3 may take longer over a weekend.
2. On the Netscape "File" menu, select "Upload File..." This will open a file selection widget on your hard-drive. Select the file you wish to upload and hit the "Ok" button. At this point, your file will be uploaded.
3. Eventhough your file has been uploaded, you will not be able to see the file in your netscape browser. The reason for this is that the "incoming" directory is set to write-only for security reasons.

From IBD's "The Big Picture" of 1 NOV: "In past years, a 1% move was
sufficient. But with the market's volatility and immense power of big mutual
fund families, you want to see a gain of at least 1.5%."
Has a seminar attendee or any others heard of this increased percentage for
a follow-through confirmation? Does "The Big Picture" speak for WON? Thanks
for your comments,
Best wishes,
Walt

No, and no, but I totally agree. That said, I believe Tuesday qualified as
an f/t day on most if not all major indices. Did they mention Tuesday?

Don't have the copy in front of me so I'm paraphrasing:
Yes, but did go on to say not to buy the farm yet as the leadership is in
many cyclical such a HMO's etc. Not the leadership one wants in a fresh
rally. I'm sure some folks here have and will do well this year on these
stocks but that was my take of the article
Perhaps there is an archive area at the website?
Picked up small buys of EDMC and MTH

IMPH, RY, SBIB, & MSS impressed me today. All too extended to buy now, but
these are definitely not cyclicals (nor are med services). Cyclicals are
