In hindsight if I had been watching ASIA on 12/4 I probably would have
bought. If you consider 11/27 to be the start of a short handle, the pivot
would be 17.33 and the stock could have been bought up to 18.20. In this
case, you would still be in the stock.

As for now, it's definitely a gamble. Personally I like the month-long
consolidation and the near record volume over the past few days, and think
that if the Nasdaq resumes its rally, there's a good chance ASIA will go
along for the ride.
