Most Recent Note - 9/23/2015 12:58:42 PM Y - Color code is changed to yellow with pivot point cited based on its 8/07/15 high plus 10 cents. Perched within close striking distance of its 52-week high with today's 10th consecutive gain. Subsequent volume-driven gains for new highs may trigger a technical buy signal. The high-ranked Ireland-based Computer Software - Enterprise firm found support at its 200 DMA line during its consolidation since last noted with caution at its 52-week high in the 8/07/15 mid-day report "Reported earnings +83% on +24% sales revenues for the Jun '15 quarter, its 3rd consecutive quarterly earnings comparison above the +25% minimum guideline (C criteria). That helps it better match the fact-based investment system's guidelines however sequential quarterly comparisons have shown deceleration in its growth rate. Gapped up today hitting a new 52-week high, and no resistance remains due to overhead supply. Encountered distributional pressure following a technical breakout on 7/27/15, then found support above its 50 DMA line during its recent consolidation."
