Guy,
I agree with you on FTL. I have it on my watch list. Our channels are
slightly different since I use Candle Volume charts, but the story is the
same. I had it breaking out of a short term down trend channel in early May,
then move up and sideways to where it is now at the bottom of a new short term
up trend channel. This looks like a good entry point, but I'm fully committed
now and don't have room for another stock. Just sitting and watching
everything go up (I hope <G>).

Take a look at Fruit of the Loom (FTL). The stock has been on a
short-term downtrend since the high of 3/20/97. It has come down to
its long-term uptrend line. =20
I draw the long term uptrend from 11/21/95, through 7/22/96, 5/8/97,
and 5/16/97. This line almost exactly overlaps the 200-day Moving
Average. Unfortunately, that line is violated twice. First, for two
days in the July 96 sell-off, and again for two days in the March 97
sell-off.
As an alternative, you could draw a line through the lows of 7/16/96,
and 4/13/97. This line is parallel to the 200-day MA, but just a
little lower. =20
If FTL breaks through the short-term downtrend line, we should see a
pretty good move up. I have a buy Stop order in at 37 1/2 for today,
which I don't expect to see executed. Tomorrow, I will place one at
37 1/4.
