Yep, it was getting ready....to drop on below target earnings news the last week of Sept. I added to my position that day right at the bottom and lowered my average. It has since bounced and today it filled the gap. I am in the green so far on this in the last few days. I am hoping for this to work it's way up to resistance at the upper trend line (7.75 area)and possibly consolidate some before setting up to break out. Watching to see how this plays out.
