What is they say about overconfidence? Picked up INGN yesterday and thought I was pretty smart...until today. I seem much better at explaining strength or weakness after the fact than predicting it in advance. I should've let this one go when it broke the 5.75 level this morning and walked away for a bit. My only consolation is relatively low vol on the pullback, but then this isn't always as helpful an indicator as we'd like it to be when holding a stock ;-) Always keep up on your comments on this thread. I'm learning a lot (notwithstanding sometimes stupid decisions I still make). Cheers WUWT
