For those interested in volume and patterns of trading, here is something lifted from Yahoo. Scroll to the bottom to see the bullish signals being reported from the BOP numbers - I assume someone here knows what BOP numbers are? Also note that the last-minute tick to $22 closing price was achieved with three very small trades: ____________ **********REPORT FOR FRIDAY********** by: go_with_throttle_up (52/M/Houston, Texas) 11/13/1999 12:37 pm EST Msg: 114537 of 114546 <<<<< HERE IS THE VOLUME SUMMARY >>>>> Total Block Volume: 8,519,400 Total Block Trades: 272 Total NonBlock Volume: 6,684,900 Total NonBlock Trades: 9,137 Total Volume Traded: 15,204,300 Total Trades: 9,409 Block Trades Of 100K And Larger 1,834,600 @ 22 3/8 Open 09:30:21 100,000 @ 22 1/8 Ask 09:54:03 179,700 @ 22 Bid 10:09:06 126,000 @ 21 7/8 Ask 10:15:39 100,000 @ 21 5/8 Ask 10:40:33 100,000 @ 21 11/16 Ask 12:13:30 Note: There Were Numerous Block Trades Of 50K And Larger At The Ask Throughout The Day!

Moderate/Strong Buying Pressure! (The Only Other Computer Company With Green BOP Is Gateway) Money Stream: Bullish! Well Above The Moving Average With Slight Downturn! OBV: Bullish! -- Confirming Price Movement TSV: Positive!OPINION: This is the first day of green BOP since 6/17/99 when transitioned from a long decline under red and yellow BOP and we closed at 22 1/2. That was the first day of numerous days of green BOP which took us to 28 on 7/14/99. One day does not a trend make; however, a day of green BOP almost took my breath away when I saw it. Many indications are identical to 6/17/99, only now we have a new CEO and a new Compaq! I hope this means that we are poised for a nice end-of-year run, and hopefully a great January Effect . Long and Strong: CPQ!....."Compaq, You Are Go At Throttle Up!"....."Roger, Go With Throttle Up!"
