FFTI. Many EP's have started the day before earnings at the high for the day, only to fall to near the low for the day by the close. Just yesterday, this happened to CMVT, SOFN, and ADI. CMVT and SOFN sold off today after earnings, but ADI was up strong. The chart pattern of FFTI over the last week is most similar to ADI, especially the fact that they both peaked at the high for the week near the open of the last day before earnings. This is only one criteria to watch in deciding whether to hold through earnings, but it's the type of analysis I hope to be able to do more of in the future. (That is, in real time before the market closes and before the company reports.) John
