Doug,

No. I got caught taking a long lunch (didn't check the market till 4:30), and had to spend the weekend telling myself, Everything's going to be alright.
Shockingly, so far it is. This may even do an SRV:

Throw down the anchor in a signal-defying way, and just go up in its own sweet way. Or it may throw down another gut-wrenching close. Or it may ... I'm so relieved to be alive, I don't know what to think about this one.

Doug,

So it goes up to 17 1/4, and I put a stop in where I bought, at 16 1/2. It immediately swoops down to pick that up, then starts running again. If I didn't know better, I'd say this stock is a BB impersonating an OTC. They're fine, but you simply cannot put actual stops in.
All's well that ends well. I've thrown this one out of the cathouse, along with MANU, which was also clearly manipulated. Sheesh.

CDN/CPQ

Doug,

CDN looks cool. Top of my stalk-list now has to be CPQ. True, it only did 22.4%, or 25.25% as an Este-cat--not exactly a roof-crasher--but the possibility of it turning into <<arrrgghhh!!!>> an investment has to outweigh the meagre #s.
After the roller-coaster rides I've been taking with the EAIIs and FVCXs and ESOLs of the world, I wouldn't mind a nice slow cat glissando up. Big-cat hunting has, generally, been a good way to go: ORCL and NSCP, e.g. In retrospect, OXHP and SGI look like no-brainers too, though they sure didn't at the time.
