Had been eyeing this one for some time, trying to get an opportunity to buy at cheaper levels. Bought into QNTM at 25 3/4 two days ago. I like the prospects for the company, both short term and longer term. This is a great company and is in good position to continue its successs. Even though I have a quick $4-5 profit right now, I plan to hold on. If we hit mid 30's I may sell a portion of my position, but I plan to hold on for significant gains in the years to come. Good luck QNTM'ers. L4P

No paradigm shift. TA has always worked. Buy and hold based on fundamentals has always worked. They both still do. Nothing has changed. And I doubt you will find many technical analysts that will claim that fundamentals and/or buy-and-hold don't work. It's not an either/or situation. Indeed, the ideal may be to use TA on stocks that are fundamentally strong. It's all a matter of style, how much information you have, how quickly you are able to trade, and how cheap it is for you to trade.
