<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Re your first question do your homework
beforehand but go in with an open mind and follow the signals as they unfold. I
found that when I went into open with bullish scenario and bearish scenario that
I tended to try to fit the market action into one or the other.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Re your second question I'm a DTN user for 6+-
months and have been very satisfied until switching to cable. I have a DirecTV
system and added the DTN 36" dish when I subscribed. HOA forced me to get
rid of the DTN dish and I installed cable just to get C-SPAN2. Since switching,.
I've had interruptions and late quotes however I blame this on C-SPAN2/cable
company. DTN is currently testing transmission via DirecTV and I look forward to
getting back to satellite within a few months.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=System size=2>I've been working on a daytrading
approach for about 10 weeks.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=System size=2>the last two weeks I've been watching
a lot of good</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=System size=2>signals go by and questioning my
resolve. The interesting thing</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=System size=2>lately is how quickly the bonds jump
from one level to the next,</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=System size=2>where two weeks ago there was time to
consider things,now if</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=System size=2>you hesitate at all the train leaves
without ya. Am I imagining this</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=System size=2>or are the bonds a little more
aggressive lately?? when I started</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=System size=2>watching them intra day a month a go
they seemed a bit more</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
