Thanks for the insight...I am trying to get into the
Intermediate term trading myself. I am trying to
implemen the Kuhn/Marder Course into my trading...I
actually did pretty well with a couple of trades
before the market went south.

To bad Greg Kuhn left TradingMarkets I use to enjoy
reading his commentary.  You cant take anything away
from Boucher and Marder though,both are great
educators.  I haven't perfected this CANSLIM stuff
yet, but am still learning.
