the trading range was good while it lasted...I had two blocks of shares, one I kept and one I tried to trade. Actually made 200% on the shares I was trading, but then it broke out and I was not able to buy back. That's the problem with trying to trade the range. However, the much larger position I decided to hold has paid about 175% without any work at all. I haven't seen any evidence of a new trading range yet. I think the several months of trading range in the 6 - 8.50 area were caused buy uncertainty in the overall markets, but also buy an undercurrent of belief that the worst was behind, which is now common wisdom, and why we have had strength.
