I hear Chuck P. is warming up to the name. My avg. cost is $28 and I suffered through a pretty big downturn. Sold Nov. 25 calls against my entire position and, to be honest, I won't mind getting called away. HYSL doesn't have the characteristics I usually look for and it was really probably a mistake when I purchased it. Too much competition, perpetual license model is unattractive, market is probably not of "mega" size.

Hi Dave, Yes, HYSL's chart is in a definite long term uptrend the last 2-3 months. Just when you think it is done going up - a big day hits, like the one described in your post. Last few days of sideways action held the gap and today we have pressure to the upside again. We could slip-side here for a while or we could pop again anytime, IMHO. In either event, I'm not worried about a major retreat anytime soon. What do you think of today's announcement re: CRM? I think that should keep the pot boiling. Last couple of announcements have helped. ed
