I think its a littel much for me to try and catch break out spikes inerday------I do have a job to do and I can not do both.
I am back on the swing thing for this week.....playing breakouts for more than 10 min.....
new filter and am sure some has done ths before......playing the bounce on big gap downs.
I am going to check the news to make sure its not some kind of accounting issue.
