Thanks, nnuut, XL-endLady, and Countryboy.
I hope everyone took this as a good thing. That is how I meant it.

I like the idea. We are here to learn, to help each other, an to make money for our retirement. Thank you!
I am going to suggest something to everyone.
Around the noon time frame this site has a tendency to get very slow.
It is also the time frame that we have our last chance to make our IFT
move. I am talking about 15 minutes before our IFT cutoff time. 11:45
A.M. up until noon.
Can we out of common courtesy to these people that are looking for
there last clues on what they want to do IFT Wise not post anything that
does not pertain to the immediate Market Analysis and Situation that we
are all here for. Thanks. Poolman

Hi POOLMAN,
Common courtesy is always a good thing when I was growing up and for techies, sharing data is usually good. I feel that noone knows everything, some more than others and we need to keep our communication lines as open, useful and as functional as possible.
I always like to think I agree with the POOLMAN, and this seems to be correct, so it's another MUST, that I must follow.![]()
You think it's the postings that is slowing it down, P-man, or everyone refreshing every 30 seconds to see what your move is going to be for the day?
Refreshing here on msg board doesn't require log on, but in autotracker it does. I certainly can be logged out of msg board by 11:45 a.m. The autotracker may be a different story. Maybe Tom could inform us.
Don't you dare!I try to post my move here by 11:45a.m.
... And we appreciate that, Poolman! ... If Tom would
rather me not post my move here of course I will stop. ...
Poolman it's time to get rid of your dial-up
Seriously though, I've not noticed a change in connection speed during the peak hours, but I would be curious if Tom has.
I have, and have been trying to get my hosting company to test the "stress levels" between 11:30 and 12 noon ET.Poolman it's time to get rid of your dial-up

Good for you starcrwn! Welcome to the site!I'm shocked to say that I'm ending January with a return of +3%!

I tend forget during that busy time, but I saw this thread and am online with live help - but waiting for a response.
I've had to upgrade twice because of traffic increases, but actually I believe traffic is down since the limits kicked in last year, so perhaps it is a hardware issue?? I will look into it.
Thanks!
Hi, Poolman:
Even though you aren't happy with January, I have to thank you for helping me time things right. I'm shocked to say that I'm ending January with a return of +3%! This is after taking a 13% loss last year (which is't bad compared to a lot of people). Your comments and video referrals were instrumental in this happening.
Thanks again!

In the meantime, I will run an optimization routine on the database and see if that helps. Of course we won't know if it helps until Monday between 11:30 and 12:00. Things might be slow while it runs.Thanks Tom... That would be the Ultimate Fix...![]()

I did notice a little pickup after I ran the optimization script, but it was after 12 noon ET so that's not a great test.Everyone was very Cooperative to my Suggestion.
Thanks to Everyone.![]()
