Here's my reason for buying APSG last week (and a little bit more this week)... I saw support at 12, plain and simple. It tested it many times before yesterday's break. Another thing that prompted my attention was Lizzard's comments that he talked to the company and they affirmed that biz was on track. This was a major factor in my decision. I also liked the numbers upon due diligence research. ------------------------------------------------------- However, I think that even though SI is a great support group for talking with others about stocks, we have to be careful of reading too much into others opinions and trusting ourselves with the knowledge that we've gained through the years from experience, reading, etc. One of the biggest problems traders have is letting others sway their opinion. This causes indecision which is very harmful to a trader's psychology. Sometimes I think it's better for traders to work in vacuum. Simply hit your entry and exit points and execute without indecision. It's something we all have to work on. Paul
