Thank you Katherine.  Your comments are very helpful.  Interesting to =
follow stocks with stronger technicals than fundamentals (based on =
CANSLIM criteria).  I suspect that ttype of stock does better than one =
with strong fundamentals and weak technicals.

    Subject: [CANSLIM] AUO: What to do


    I recently discovered AUO and it appears to be an interesting =
investment opportunity.  AUO makes LCD displays for consumer electronics =
including notebook computers, desktop computers, TVs, etc.  The =
company's sales and profit margins are expanding as the demand for large =
panel flat screen TVs increases.  The technicals are solid but the =
fundamentals are weak from a CANSLIM perspective.  It's also extended =
from it's pivot point of 9.75.

    The chart appears to have a staircase quality recently. Recently, it =
bases for a month and then quickly moves upward only to base for a month =
again.  There's no real CWH, just a series of flat bases connected by =
breakouts.

    So that's my question.  Is this "staircase" pattern an acceptable =
basing pattern where you can buy the stock after it breaks resistance =
for it's current "base" or is it wiser to wait for a CWH pattern to =
emerge?

    I know that the fundamentals are not stellar but they are improving. =
 But that's not my concern right now, I'm just wondering if there's an =
empirically sound strategy for entering a stock with this type of basing =
pattern.  Also, am I interpreting the chart pattern correctly.  Thanks.

    Bob Hodes
