Looks like this may be setting up for another peak. Getting very close to the final phase and a product release this month. The show in Germany is December 5th through the 7th. Im expecting contracts with a lot of 000,000,000's soon. Volume starting to pick up a bit because of the anticipation of all the up coming events. I took good profits on the last peak and expect even better this time.
HSM has some good charts in the CFRI thread. I cant figure out how to post them here though.
