Thanks miningnut for replying.

My approach is so different from yours- - I hold about 80 stocks at any time and I'm in and out of them constantly.

I think my motivation is different -- I just want to nut out what makes prices go up and down!

i started off as a buy and holder but then got fascinated with trying to predict the ups and downs.

Both avm and psa have taught me lots about why stocks go aup and down!

I'm surprised you're sane after holding onto them all that time. You must have an incredible degree of faith and detachment.
