    Dr. Dave, thanks for your observation and input. Maybe I'm too focused on short term to fully envision or appreciate what you have pointed out. I follow your insight as I zoomed out to a year, but in reality I'm not patient enough to wait so long for payback. I'm actually quite a rookie in investing, and so far I've settled into short term swing trades as my comfort zone. I'll keep an eye on that developing cup and handle however, and make a play if or when I think I am ready (meaning confident and patient).

    Thanks again for your input.

    its running alright....it would be risky to jump in on this point unless you were just adding to a position though...its kind of on the "high" side of some of my trend lines...

    even though i do show it breaking out of a symmetrical triangle pattern (red triangle)...it also has decent above average volume on this breakout, a good sign for the short term......maybe it can reach for the top of the original retracement with this triangle breakout??

    Thanks for the analysis. I have a little for fun, up 28% in a couple weeks since I finally bought in. I keep saying this, but I may just hold it for a while and see what happens. The next Phillip Morris? LOL

Sorry to derail aapl talk.
    lol, man.... some of these guys took off and turned into DTs

    BGFV broke out, PLG ran big time, IVAN trucking, as is TA

    Oh well, I'm starting with a new broker here in a few days, so hopefully will repeat.

    Lol, yeah, even if you swing trade (which is 95% of what I do), you should always zoom out so you can see what's happening globally so you can refine what you believe the probabilities are for momentum and targets. A lot of folks do it backwards, ie. long term holders staring at intraday prices all the time (including pre- and post-market).

    I absolutely agree with DR Dave. zoom out to the 5 year chart and just see, it helps in case you get negative and losing on a swing trade to find your possible time frame to wait it out. And you'll see a support level so you know if you should just exit.

    Long term this stock should recover nicely, but IMO they bought in too early. Based upon the fact that the sp broke below the neckline of the head and shoulders pattern on high volume, the possibility that the sp is going much lower is highly likely. I'm staying on the sidelines until I see a technical indicator giving me reason to do so.
