    Bought EZEN at about 2.30. BB stocks normally give me a lot of pause, but this one has a rapidly expanding revenue and earnings clip.
    Poorman was right on with that trade. I'm impressed.

        Here's a chart:


        I wonder about this one. I've seen hotter charts. Runner, what do you think?

          Can you give us the dope on EZEN please? Love this company? Or not?

            I'll probably buy EZEN if I can get out of my MCZ trade without getting hammered too bad.

              Ezen

              Well heres my take. As I said earlier I am not in this right now as I pocketed a significant profit and am hoping for a further pullback.

              This is a small company : $8 million revenue in 2003 , $10.4 million in 2004 and
              $ 3.1 million in 1st qtr of 2005.

              They have over this period reduced costs so that profit is creeping up.
              They have no debt an $ 0.48/share cash.

              Of concern is they are a one product company:

              "InfoWorkSpace product related revenues accounted for approximately 92.5% of total revenues "

              Thats all I know, just my DD.
              good luck

              p.s. Websman
              I also have a large position in MCZ( AVG COST OF $1.45... I think it is dead money forup to 6 months but it will eventually pay off. I plan to average down at some point (I know .....that's a whole other thread discussion)

                I got in MCZ at 1.25, so I may try to get out at just above break even next week and get into something else.

                  EZEN not too good today... Took a 7% loss on the chin. If it holds $2.00, I may consider a re-entry. The only problem I have with the BB stocks is that you cannot stop. If you could, the loss wouldn't have been anywhere near 7%.

                    On a tip. No way I could have found it on my own. Bad day for it today. May get down to 2.00 before long.

                    Sorry I didn't answer you right away. I've been out of town, and am just now catching up.

                      I'm showing $2.00 as the support on EZEN. I'll be looking to get in between $2.00 - 2.10.

                        Too late...that should have been today. It dropped to $2.05 today, and then bounced off support.
                        The entry point for tomorrow would be $2.20. That's where I'll set my limit order for tomorrow.

                          How'd you arrive at the buy point Webs?

                          I'm still a little weary of this one. Even though it bounced, it still closed below the 50 DMA. Still worth watching I guess.

                            You do have a good point. I was using analysis from this site. http://www.ddmachine.com/ Also, it seem to bounce back from support today.

                            Before I actually place an order though, I want to see what Bruce's analysis is. I'm still quite the amatuer, and am trying to learn as much as I can from some of the more experienced guys like Mr Market, IIC, Bruce, etc...

                              My slop chart on EZEN. (Intra day 60 min)
                              Does it make any sense? Some shorts that bot in off MSH might not panic until 2.50 gets taken out.

                                Yes, Runner, makes sense. What does MSH mean? Midnight Star High or something else?

                                Could be worse. Consider the guy who bought at $2.95. Hope he's already out.
