Technically, you're way over the top. Look at RSI, MACD and Momentum. Look at the fact that this stock has gone "straight" up for about 3 weeks, effectively doubling it's price.

By my "rules" I now recognize that I clearly got out too early, Ron got out at probably a good time, with a terrific gain.

However, this is in the hands of the momentum crowd now, so you're comparable to an "inut", which behaves with it's own set of rules.

I'd re-enter with a retracement into the mid-high teens. It probably won't get there. It now becomes a trading stock because there's a lot of downside risk, IMHO.

Maybe I'm conservative by some standards, but 100% in 3-4 weeks is pretty nice work, and time for profit-taking. I only took a 17% profit, but a profit nonetheless.

Regards.

Rampant,

You maybe the smart one holding RIM; should be great growth for 5 quarters or more. I just thought stock price got ahead of itself. With all the hiring in this quarter [130+ new employees], & R&D expenses, against hugh sales of pagers (4000/day ?). But, it's too hard too call with the NASDAQ action. I been selling over the last 2 weeks, - I have held since IPO; & a few short-term/day trades this quarter.
