all this sideways action could result in a sharp drop to lower prices, and more sideways action there, constituting a pro forma loss, but could also result in a sharp climb to 50. 2/6/2012, price of 27. the chance for a quick gain is what i see here ... but i'd like to have a stop - loss to employ. anyway, it's a little off its marker lows, and coming down, so i'll just watch it here. 2/6/2012.

a price of 1.25 will signal an advance to 12.50 ... a ten banger. this is a year out, maybe. 2/6/2012.

if prominent earlier lows and a long gradual slide like this signal a sharp reversal, as i suspect they do, this should rally to 50 this year. but the slide to today's price shows no definite sign of approaching a bottom. I wonder if this might be available at $5 in the coming weeks. 2/6/2012.

by at 5, sell at 25. fairly high probability of success, just based on a subjective assessment of the chart.

another good situation, here, on 2/6/2012. a price of twenty seems likely in short order (a year?). buy at 5. observe the rules of diversification (see earlier posts).

due to the gradual nature of the decline in force, and the prominent nature of the 2009 low, i feel this will appreciate rapidly after it reaches 20 again.
i'm finding myself a little perplexed about what to say about selling. Phil Fischer writes about choosing stocks you will never need to sell. it's a very nice idea, but his methods for picking them seem to be beyond me. i feel confident this stock will tripple from 20, in short order. if it does, and you sell your holdings, which you acquired at 20, you have made good money. it might be the way to go.

this has the look of an extreme bargain. a short term down trend is in force, and you should be able to buy under $10 in a few weeks, so don't jump the gun. but the upside is pretty dramatic, with a big 1999 top marking the upside at $500. see Philip Fischer. 2/6/2012. again, this is not represented as a sure thing. maintain that diversification cushion. put a modest amount in this, keep looking for stocks with this kind of potential, and work on your analytical skills while you watch your picks over time.

it'll probably continue its upward trend (after returning to 45). 2/6/2012. since trending moves tend to be rapid, some might regard this as a timely buy. i myself am partial to extreme bargains, and thus stocks that are essentially down, not up. but let's watch it for future reference.

see, look, it's tracking sideways, but there's a major reversal at a lower price. chances are it will reverse again down there. again, no stops, no knowledge of the fundamental? your safety net is diversification. if your trading funds amount to $500, and you put $50 into this stock - at $10 - and ten others with similar potential, in this stock, you will make $150 or something, just selling at today's level again (feb6,2012). or, this could be a stock you'll keep for the long term, having gotten a bunch of it at a low price. to ascertain whether the latter is the case, you will need to study the fundamentals.

pretty good chance this will go from here to 60 this year. you need additional information to invest more than a small amount in this trade. there may be a high probability this prediction is correct, but there's no guarantee or assurance your invested funds aren't at substantial risk. a system that includes stops might provide you with that kind of security, and a deep understanding of the fundamentals would be ideal. i'm not in a position to provide you with either one.

prices are nestled up against a shoulder at 30, but I think they need to go sideways for a while, before they'll break higher.

we'll see prices around 10 again, in a couple of years maybe. it'll then be of interest.

the chart suggests a price of 10 will be seen again and might be a good play (haven't reviewed the long term. this is more of a short term idea.

long term situation supports above suggestion
