I look to see if it can consolidate above the pivot point, generally have a mild sell 
off, but I haven't seen much of that.  I guess something on the order of a 3 or 4 day 
flag-like pattern would be good (a several day pullback at that point would not fit the 
definition of a flag pattern I don't think, but a pattern of that sort is the idea).  Also, 
hitting the 20 day EMA is not a bad support level.

My activity in the market is pretty limited lately, like I said, I don't see all that much 
I'm interested in buying. CMS is breaking out today, speaking of breakouts, for 
anyone who thought it looked like a buy.
