Another thing I forgot to add.

LF rating according to IBD
EPS Rate: 60
RS: 73
Industry Strength: C+
SMR: B
Acc/Distr: C+

Even given these fundamentals, do you guys think it is justiable to go
long on this stock just because it is breaking a pivot point?

Thanks

Yien

Today, LF broke out and by the time I was able to check the breakout alert and stock action it was already up 9% for the day, but not yet above the breakout price. I could have gotten in, and might still do that tomorrow if it pulls back, but I am frustrated that a stock, on my watch list, which I was willing to purchase, would run up so much before I could do anything about it. Therefore, I pose the following question:

Is it reasonable to believe I could have bought the stock yesterday to participate in today's action and still be following CANSLIM rules? I would greatly appreciate anyone's advice on this.
