Kacy: <<I believe "wreck" was the word>> It was indeed. I suppose "disaster" is slightly worse <g>. At least with a wreck, there is hope of salvation, which is some consolation for those of us who are long :^) I'm not saying that I'm pleased that it fell rapidly from $8.50 -- just that I wasn't surprised and that I consider this a buying opportunity, given my bullish perspective. And as you know, I'm not looking at this just from a technical point of view. Even if I was, I would argue that there are many different interpretations of the same data, and different possible actions based on the timeframe you're trading in. For example, a long-term trend follower can be very successful buying on strength and selling on weakness (i.e. breakouts), whereas a momentum trader can be doing the opposite -- and both can make money. As you say, none of us know what's going to happen, and the market action will tell us. Cheers, Howy
