CF came up in my scans too. Ended up placing stop entry orders for PGR, BHP, VIV and GLNCY. Hope their ~ linear uptrends continue/resume...

Good luck with the live trading and the new thread.

Thanks Slope.
CF can be pretty volatile, so I gave it a lot of room on the stop. But I may be risking a bit more than I want to for now, so I might sell a partial position, shortly, just to take down my risk as % of capital.

How about your other holdings?
