Hey, thanks for that link, I never saw it before. From that perspective XYBR is clearly a sell, but those are not forward looking indicators, and don't seem to allow for divergences; a key indicator of a trend change. It would seem that XYBR is more of a buy at this level then a sell, if one were to look at past rally points, I recall 1 5/8 as being one of them; but another perspective is that it is back where it started before the run to 12 last year; and it tookthe entire year for the retracement. Stocks like these, you either believe they will be successful in the long run or it is a trading vehicle from these levels. As long term is relative, I will stick with trading vehicle for now until fundamentals improve. Disclaimer: I have no position in the stock, but feature the product on a showcase website at copower.com

Interesting link. Though I'm only papertrading this stock these days, I have a feeling that Xybr is at a near-term bottom. It'll be interesting to see which way this thing goes over the next few weeks. I still see the average going lower over the next 6-12 months. Xyber does seem to be in a cash pinch right now, but I see them pulling out of it with a reverse split to significantly reel-in the number of outstanding shares. I've got no experience in this area, but it seems logical. It probably won't happen for half a year, or more likely a year, but pulling a 10:1 reverse split will boost the stock price toward $10.00 and give the new offering some fresh value. This will allow them to properly tool up when it comes time to release a 'sufficient' wearable which will sell satisfactorily to industrial customers. If this imaginary scenario plays out, I expect I will be back on board when the new stock is released to the public. Plenty of technology should be available to build a good wearable a year from now. Again, this is only an inexperienced guess of mine, but I got the idea from a recent Raging Bull post. I've heard rumors of a pending MA-V. I wonder if this will be an upgraded Pentium machine or the Samsung Alpha-chip machine. Microsoft has apparently just dropped support for all Alpha-chip platforms, so, based on 'the luck of the Newmans', I'd have to suspect the MA-V is the fabled Samsung machine. It'll be interesting to see how this thing plays out, too. Shoe.
