George,
Hope you are correct! I was reviewing Alexander Elder's book 'Trading for a Living' over the holidays, specifically in regard to the 'head and shoulders top' that is quite prominent in CPQ's chart. Elder said that if the neckline is pierced that the downside target is then equivalent to the distance between the top of the head and the neckline. Well, my figuring says that would have put CPQ at around 17 bucks a share post split! Then again, Elder says if price action does not confirm the head and shoulders top, that sends the 'Hound of the Baskervilles' signal, (signal given by lack of expected action). Elder goes on to say that an aborted head and shoulders top often leads to a very strong rally, especially if prices rally back above the head.
