Bulletin:  Here we go again with some new CANSLIM tactics springing from =
WON's perfect hindsight in today's WebLink on HOV.  I quote:=20

But on May 8, the stock notched a new intraday high on quiet trade and =
finished lower that day (Point 4). New highs on low volume are one sign =
that demand is waning and pose as a key sell signal. However, given that =
the stock was only in the 10th week of its advance, it can be worth =
waiting to see if a rally still has juice. Over the next week and a =
half, Hovnanian fell hard and clipped its 50-day line on heavy trade =
(Point 5). On May 16, the stock closed below its 50-day for the first =
time since November. But from the next day, it began clawing its way =
back above the key intermediate trend line.

The first new lesson (to me, anyway) is couched in the statement, "But =
(operative word) on May 8...a new intraday high on quiet trade...a key =
sell signal."  When I look at the chart on May 8, I see something =
different:  It tells me the stock closed down that day on low volume.  I =
thought this was a good sign.  But now its a bad sign, because it =
reached a new "intraday" high on light volume.  Maybe I was in the men's =
room during the advanced seminar when they covered this.  :)

My point is, if you new about the "intraday high on low volume sell =
rule," wouldn't you have SOLD the next morning at the open?  (If you =
didn't, then today's Investor's Corner is for naught.) =20

But wait a minute, lo and behold, yet another new rule surfaces:  =
"However, given that the stock was only in the 10th week of its advance, =
it can be worth waiting to see if the rally still has juice."  Where in =
the 24 Rules is that hidden?  I searched the whole Investors.com for =
"rally juice" and nada.=20

In hindsight, the fact remains, if you held HOV, you would be wise to =
have sold on the new intraday high on low volume. That is, if you knew =
about that rule. =20

I guess we learn something new every day, don't we?  Where oh where did =
I put that darn time machine! =20
