Hi freeus,
First, you should probably just ignore OJ...I do

There are a couple of reasons for the discrepancy in the readings. First is that P&F does not gauge time, just direction. So it is very difficult to predict "when" using solely P&F.

Second, DELL's chart is a little schizophrenic right now; it gave a double bottom sell signal followed by a double top buy signal. It is now bumping its head against resistance at $68. So the trading range reading still seems accurate.

Put it into the context of the market though and I get a little bit more positive. Both DJIA and NAZ broke through resistance yesterday. I would also expect to see some strength based on christmas buying (or at least the belief that people would be buying computers for Xmas).

So, if it was my position, I would hold. However, I have been known to take unreasonable risks at times and have taken losses as well.
