I just download the latest wallet from the announcement page and the most current version of the old-style wallet (non-masternode) is v0.9.4.6-unk-beta

- download the latest wallet from the announcement page download section or this link to download it directly http://darkcoin.io/downloads/darkcoin-qt.exe

- backup the wallet.dat using the guide - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=621424.msg6885340#msg6885340

- Start the wallet, check it matches version v0.9.4.6-unk-beta and let it sync

but how do I transfer my DRK coins over to that wallet?
The wallet.dat file from your original wallet that you backed up is what contains your coins. If you are just moving the coins to different local computer, just follow the steps I posted earlier:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=621424.msg6885741#msg6885741

will that work if I transfer on same computer? from old wallet to new?

and you said I should wait until its synched before transfering coins but its not syching.. 1 drk coin to anyone that step by step me in PM

The wallet won't sync until you upgrade to the latest client.

You don't need to transfer the coins if you are just upgrading the wallet on the same computer. Replace the old darkcoin-qt.exe with the new one and start the wallet, that's all you need to do beside backing up the wallet.dat in case of the unlikely event something goes wrong.

i'd sell it all because its further away up and buy back when down

It mostly depends on your appetite for risk. However the problem with playing arbitrage is that it works, until it doesn't and then if the coin takes off, you are left on the sidelines with only a fraction of the gains you could have realized. DarkCoin is one of the rare coins that offers true innovation and development and is based around a concept getting scarcer by the minute, privacy. You never know what can happen. Just like I'm sure the the early adopter that traded 10,000 BTC for two pizzas never could have possibly imagined what they would be worth today. The way I look at it, if you make an investment that you believe in, why sell yourself short? I would hate to be like the pizza guy and BTC literally has thousands of early adopters just like him!

DRK is a BTC fork, it's not true innovation. I would hold long term a cryptonote based coin and that's still taking a huge risk.

That is incorrect, it's actually a LTC based client however it uses a number of innovations developed by and first implemented in DarkCoin. Among them the x11 algorithm, DarkWave difficulty retargeting and the new DarkSend protocol. That is already more innovation than at least 90% of the new alt coins released this year, most of which are nothing more than a 100% clone with different branding.

Like Monero, it's a 100% clone of Bytecoin with a different name..
