Oh, really, Doc? Nice proofreading in the last paragraph, BTW. Meanwhile, as I stated in a prior post, but you seem to want to ignore, LGND is down 10% since the inception of the "Breakout!" thread, while the S&P% 500 is up over 20%. That's a negative rate of return of 30% versus this popular average. I expect this to be conveniently ignored by you. Absolutely true, that LGND has exhibited an "oscillating" pattern, unfortunately most oscillators go south. "same comments over and over and over." Sounds like posts by some of the "yea-sayers" on the board who have graduated from an undergraduate degree, to a master's degree, to a...

Henry, Would the price move from 19 to 11+ change be called a drop? Yea, I think that is the term we are looking for here. Yea,now we are on to something here! I looked it up, and sure enough, the word drop can be used to define the act of falling. So, if LGND was at 13, and broke OUT to say 19, and then oscillated back and forth many times to come to rest at say 11+, we could indeed then say the price dropped. If I can be of help with anymore of the technical questions that come up, please don't hesitate to ask. Rememeber, perseverance is called a virtue by some, Greg PS: Sigh :- )) I hope I helped describe the move from 19 to 11. I also hope that everyone that is big enough to buy a security, is big enough to accept the fact that they bought the security. No one but them made the decision to speculate on such, and if they want to cry to someone, maybe they should pull a box of tissue in front of the mirror with them and have a big pitty party with that decision maker!

No Henry, that just won't work for some! It would be too much for some to take responsibility for their own decisions. You really should have been recommending to everyone who reads the Ligand thread that they buy internets for the last 6 months. What were you thinking. Would it be too much to ask that you put your picture on this site, so we can actually see who we should blame for not investing in the stocks that have raised the most while we had our money in Ligand? It is time you were held accountable for not talking AMZN, YHOO, AOL, MSFT, etc., etc. on the Ligand thread.Can someone please call their lawyer. I'm surprised no one else has wanted to sue Henry by now for not investing our money more wisely!
