Emotions:
After watching a webcast with Price Headley, he said that he likes to get in ONLY on %R retests and mostly those that occur outside of the accel bands. In this case, the stock closed inside the bands, but only barely...and it rebounded nicely the day I got in.
This so far is working out realy well as it bounced right away. The stock is in a very strong group and has solid fundamentals...the uptrend has been in place and is also strong.
