Sb2k, let me answer for Paul. You asked >Why would I
sell now if the stock is going to 48.
<

Good question. The last top was 47 [Point&Figure charting uses
whole numbers]. Now the price must go beyond the last top [to 48]
before we are confident again. There is no prediction whether
that will happen. Strict adherents to the PnF method would not
buy before 48. This would lose them possible gains, but also
reduces risk. The sell signal was given when price hit 41
going down. [it went lower than a previous bottom]

If you're interested in the method, there is an introduction
