    Andrew,
    Good guests/interviews. Regarding the stocks under $10 category, I heard that there were around 17 Dow stocks that didn't survive the '29 crash and subsequent depression. Looking at some charts like TXT and IP, perhaps there will be some vacancies again in the future….

    You mentioned giving guest suggestions, here are two and thanks for considering.

    1. Tom O' Brien of TFNN.com. (tiger Financial News Network)
    He has a great book called "Timing The Trade". It's a great swing trading approach buying retracements, (not breakouts ala Bill O'Neil) utilizing price & volume particularly at swing points, and he focuses on money management too, which we know is very important but often overlooked. He's especially adept in the gold market and mining companies and I believe he could provide specific education regarding that sector.

    2. John Murphy – stockcharts.com.

    I'm just 3 years in the market but doing well and seeking to learn more every day. Thanks for all you are providing to my continuing education and enjoyment in this endeavor.
