Hi Peter,

On halted stocks the ruling made was we go with the closing price. In the case of MGN we would take $1.22 which was the closing price. I don't have a problem with people picking halted stocks whatsoever.

regards,
Al

Hi Peter,

Your in with MGN-t @$1.22 for 8,196 shares.

Chart for Magnotta Winery Corp.(MGN-t):

stockcharts.com[l,a]djclnimy[pc20!b50!b100!b200][vc60][iLl14!Lh14,3!La12,26,9]

Looking at the chart for MGN we can see this tightly held low volume trader has been on quite the tear in the month of May and is now trading well above all it's major MA's. The low volume makes the chart for this stock useless as any little price movement makes the chart indicators go ballistic. A stock in this contest that actually makes money is a novelty of sorts and with any luck on the news front with a $.13 profit this stock may not be eligible for this thread much longer.

Good luck with this pick,
Al
