Alister,

I think CRAY has well-structured, beautiful looking chart.

The 1.98 gap got filled during the current Bull Flag formation.  The top of the Bull Flag on Friday, March 3 was 2.147.  The high on the day was 2.14, then CRAY backed off into the close.  That's the third hit to that trendline, validating it.

Volume was a little weak on last week's rally off the bottom of the Bull Flag, so we could "walk down the flag" some more next week.  I'd like to see volume come in on a breakout. 

If the Bull Flag gets taken out to the upside, 2.54 and 2.77 will be IN PLAY. 
2.75 was the reaction high in April, after the gap down in March.

uc,

CRAY might "walk down" the Bull Flag some next week, but the overall chart looks good.

In January, John D. Markman at the Street.com picked CRAY as one of his "10 Hot Techs that aren't Apple or Google."  Markman seems to have a good read on fundamentals. 

His picks are doing well, some of which were JDSU, PMCS, STX, BCOM, BWNG (had a nice gap higher on Friday).

Here are his comments on CRAY:

"If you want to look for some upside in a cheap tech stock on the move, check out Cray (CRAY:Nasdaq - news - research - Cramer's Take), the nation's leading supercomputer maker. The company -- which has disappointed optimists repeatedly in the past -- last week lifted its revenue estimates for 2005 and 2006 by as much as 32% because of new commitments by customers on three continents, including the Korea Meteorological Administration, the Swiss National Supercomputing Center and our very own Oak Ridge Labs. Earnings will follow, and the company is likely to emerge from a string of annual losses by 2007.

The problem is that supercomputing is not exactly a growth industry, and at home it is held hostage to a Pentagon budget that's straining just to turn on the lights. If you buy now, you might have to wait a while for action, but there's $46 million in cash that acts as a safety net, and the upside could approach $2.50 to $4 in two years, or as much as a double or better from here . The recent range is wide: It sold for 85 cents a share a few months ago and as much as $14 in 2003."

The high end of his target ties in nicely with the chart.  If CRAY can take out 2.54 (see my chart above), that will put about 4.25 IN PLAY, depending on the point of the breakout.  If we get there, that's a 101% gain from Friday's close of 2.11.

Good luck, uc!

uc,

Sorry, I typed the wrong symbol, probably because I hate that devil BCON.  >:D  ;D

I meant to say that one of Markman's picks was Broadcom (BRCM).  I typed it as BCOM.

PDATE 1-Cray says may revise 2004 results on accounting review
Fri Mar 17, 2006 8:50 AM ET

(Adds details, outlook)

March 17 (Reuters) - Cray Inc. (CRAY.O: Quote, Profile, Research) on Friday said its 2004 loss could increase by up to $3.3 million, and revenue reduced, if it determines that revenue from one of its product development contracts was inappropriately recorded.

In a news release, the company which makes supercomputers said, although no resolution had been reached so far on the issue, there was no impact on the company's cash or short-term investment position during 2004 or 2005.

Due to this, the company said it would delay the filing of its 2005 results and expects to file by March 31.

On a preliminary basis, Cray said its fourth-quarter net loss was $9 million, or 10 cents a share, on revenue of about $65 million. The results for the quarter included a $4.9 million write-down for impairment of core technology among others, the release said.

According to Reuters Estimates, two analysts expected the company to post a loss of 3 cents a share, excluding exceptional items, while three analysts expected the company to report revenue of $61.0 million for the fourth-quarter.

For 2006, the company said it expects revenue growth of 5 percent to 15 percent over the year-ago period. The company expects the second half of 2006 to be stronger than the first half, with the potential for 60 percent of product revenue to be recognised in the fourth quarter.

Hi,

I want to talk about CRAY because it reflect my actual trading philosophy and because news are not good but i am still BULLISH  ??? But with my money management rules, if i am wrong i will have no loss  :)

I have bought some shares on pullback at the beginning of october at 10.20..

But today i saw on Zacks.com a negative post :
"In light of the company's poor track record of timely launches, we remain skeptical that Q4 will meet expectations." and more...

My strategy :
Buy at 10.20
Stop-loss at 9.80
Target protection : 10.60 -> OK
Target profit : between 13 and 14...Not YET..

Why ?
1. Major UPTREND
2. Just 4 eliott waves
3. Good pullback at 10 - 10.20 => Support + 50%retracement + negative divergence
4. High probability trade : Reward/risk ratio of 28 (price at 13 -> minimal) / 4 = 7 !!!!EXCELLENT

GOOD TRADES  :)
