A welcome to my readers...First and foremost I hope you are still finding value in my writings and want to thank you for reading. The royalties go to support the Max Wales scholarship at the University of Oregon. Max was the best professor I had...and this is just one way I have chosen to acknowledge him. The scholarship is to the School of Journalism so if any of you have kids going there let me know. Go Ducks!I have a new book out, "confessions of a tax rebel" about my 12 year battle with the IRS. This certainly was the most arduous chapter in my life so far. The battle as well as how and why I got into it is fully covered in the book. It is kind of Indiana Jones meets the Department of Justice...the culmination was trial last year that ended---favorably---on the third day when all charges were dropped.Wiley wanted an update to my 1998 book, "Long Term Secrets of Short Term Trading", that project was just completed and the new edition shud be out soon.Lots of market stuff on my web page Ireallytrade.com and I will check in here from time to timebest wishes to allLarry
