Thanks for your polite response, and yes, we are all a little suspicious after all the dubious folks that have come and gone on this forum, so when I speak, I think it's for the majority of us. Once we are confident of the character of a poster, we don't have any problem answering the questions we are able to.
I have found that news only really moves a stock up when it comes as a complete and favorable surprise to the market, so obviously this didn't achieve that for us this time. It also didn't sell off after the news either. I think Noront is sneaking through this zone of resistance in the $4.50 range very nicely.
Another thing I've noticed ( and I could be way off base here ) is that if you compare the daily chart of Noront and KXL ( as of 23/08/07 ) I see some similarities in the chart and the technical indicators. They both display what is described as a "megaphone bottom" which is very bullish, and the macd and relative strength display similar signals. I wonder if we'll get the same explosive breakout within 2 weeks time?
