It's time... March 31, 2008
After the close I noticed that RAI is at the bottom of a 22 month range, closing near $59 Monday. I'll be taking a position in this tomorrow below 60.

I've moved up my stop (21.87) to protect gains and am ready to close out this trade when intraday action gives me a reason to. Why? Because it's move has been very fast and has outpaced the advance of oil. I don't follow oil directly (or any other commodity) so I don't know what to expect there. Also, the general market is at a critical level right now,......
