Hey CR, how about tracking the famous "Sell in May and go away" adage. Sell at yesterday's price and buy back on November 1. Should be easy enough to do with your spreadsheet. Might be fun to see the adage results vs the full year.

I don't prescribe to the theory. Anyone out there follow it?

Butt,

I'll see if I can fit it in between the OFR*s most epic world cruising blog and the world's most exciting investment contest known to (27) man/men. Not to mention the three-year pool saga whiner's thread.

I use Schwab, Interactive Brokers, and Fidelity. I inherited Schwab from the TD Ameritrade merger. I much preferred TD over Schwab.
