DS,

That chart makes looks like NTAP is poised for a big move.

Up or down is the question. I see the a "w" formation or a potential "double top"

BTW, congratulations on you "cool" post designation <again!>
Enjoying the technical discussion.

DS,Your post hits a key point - valuation. How do you determine an appropriate valuation for a high growth company like NTAP ? At which price would you buy it, at which would you sell it right now?

Is it price-earnings-growth rate, multiple of revenue, market cap compared to competitors or something else?

Without having a method for valuation I believe it may be a great company but one has no way to determine to what extent its bright prospects are already (over?)reflected in its price?

This aspect is the only part missing IMHO to an otherwise excellent discussion that I have been enjoying for a long time as a lurker. Or am I missing something?

Congratulations to all contributors.

Sam
