CPQ: did you check the 50 day simple moving average SK? ahhhh... dell long broke it and thus it's rally of 11% cpq.. has yet to break it but it has tried on numerous times... now you know why 50 ma is so important?? it's a difference bettween a 3% vs 11% gain in one week.. now.. think again... what are the indexes (djia and naz) bounded by? the 50 ma!! that is why next week is crucial.. if we dont go above 50 ma next week, we will retest 200 ma's.. try this site and compare the 2 charts: dell vs cpq cbs.marketwatch.com be sure to select 50 simple moving average..

SK : (CPQ) i just saw that cpq's earnings are coming out this week.. a play that i would do (do your own research) would be a buy stop above the 50 day ma.. you know that 50 day ma is the "show-stopper" recently.. so if there is a pre-earnings rally, then you will be in.. again, when it comes to earnings, my TA goes a little bit haywire.. my opinoin: is that if there is a pre-earnings rally, then it's a good sign... but of course, it's not 100% true.. intc -- kinda rallied, but not spectacular earnings sunw -- good 11% rally, and good earnings cpq -- ?? just my thoughts.
