Dan and scba, re:>>I am responsible for the down turn after the $77 buy you made. You see, I too got tired of watching CPQ go up at that time, so I purchased at $77 to make it stop going up and, in fact, force it to start to go down<< au contraire! It is my fault! I made a purchase presplit at $62.5 and then put a larger limit order at $58 thinking it would never be executed. Of course it was filled and then went up $10 making me look like a genius (or lucky SOB). Well I started bragging about my "smart move" (the kiss of death) and am now being punished. It's all my fault and i am sorry! i will never brag about an investment again If you need it to go up right away, I can always sell it. Just let me know. ;-) steve h p.s. It's still a great long term investment and i am willing to wait.
