You can make plenty of $$$ on a .0625 profit(1/16)....if you have enough money to invest and the moxie to do it. S.

RE:Do you any of you believe there is enough of a daily spread to make
money on cpq?

Yes, but there are better stocks to day trade. HWP has been 60 to 65 for quite a while, Intel was trading in a range for a while until this week, up. If you don't really mean DAY trade you could have been in/out of CPQ quite a few times in the last month or so. I haven't traded but have seen it go from 60 to 67 to 52, back to 30(split) etc....maybe I will if it gets up a bit.

For day trading there are probably better stocks to trade. My crystal ball says tight trading ranges with limited improvement until the number crunchers finish. With the exception, of course of any announcements. I've made money on CPQ but not as much as if I held my original investment. My last investment in CPQ was at 70$. Seemed like a good buy then, and by the P/E I still think its a good buy.
