Will be a buyer whenever the price dropped to $1.80. Three months low is $1.70 (only one day), next low is $1.75.

Trading strategy:

"In around $1.80, out around $2.10."

shawFund,

I'm on my third re-entry into BCON since December 5.  My goal at this point is to hang on to some of the 14½% gain that I banked on the initial trade, and the last two re-entries, so I'll exit at 1.85, a break of the Ascending Triangle.

I hadn't realized until this afternoon that this could be a Bullish Wolfe Wave.  If it is, we could rally from today's fourth tag of the trendline at 1.85, or rally  off a Wave 5 "fakeout" to the downside, at your numbers, or below.  I prefer the former (hold at today's 1.85 low), since I'll be stopped out on the fakeout. 

I always can enter for a fifth time later on. 

Off today's 1.85 trendline bounce, BCON currently is BID 1.92...ASK 1.93

RALLY, YOU DEVIL

Hammer-time! Strong rally into the close on a nice volume pop in the last 15 minutes of trading. It's good to see buyers showing RESPEK for BCON's trendline.

Luke,

I'll say!  Where have those guys been?    

That's a nice Bullish Doji-Star Hammer, now we need some upside follow-thru.  Flirting with that trendline has gotten real tiresome.

Sorry, that's wrong.  This pattern can't be a Bullish Wolfe Wave because it has an upward slope, against the direction of the Lead-in, which was down.  Scrap that idea...we're back to the Ascending Triangle.

If 1.85 breaks, that's a violation of a re-validated trendline, and I definitely will sell that. 

NO MORE TORMENT, YOU DEVIL 

Melf - I can't take the torment any longer. I'm out @ 1.87. It has stayed above that $1.85 must-hold support line, but the thing is if that line doesn't hold BCON could crater in the blink of an eye. I also don't like the quiet slippage we've seen the past week below the 200dma. If it runs tomorrow though, you know I'll chasing it like a wild dog

Luke,

I can't blame you at all, and I agree that it could crater if support breaks.  If I didn't have the gain on my last three trades for some protection, I think I'd join you.   What a pain, watching this thing!

STOP THE TORMENT 

Hmmm!,their's that news!

Beacon Power Announces Successful Completion of Flywheel System Acceptance Testing by NYSERDA
Wednesday March 1, 1:53 pm ET
New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) and U.S. Department of Energy Approve Demonstration System Shipment

WILMINGTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 1, 2006--Beacon Power Corporation (NASDAQ: BCON - News), a company that designs and develops advanced products and services to support more stable and reliable electricity grid operation, announced that it has successfully completed the pre-shipment acceptance testing for a scale-power Smart Energy Matrix demonstration unit, built under contract to the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) and the U.S. Department of Energy. The acceptance tests were conducted at Beacon Power's facility in Wilmington, Massachusetts. The system is expected to be installed and connected to the grid at the demonstration host site in Amsterdam, New York, during March 2006.

"We are pleased that Beacon Power's Smart Energy Matrix demonstration system has completed factory acceptance testing, which is the last milestone prior to shipment," said Peter Smith, president of NYSERDA. "This project is part of NYSERDA's continuing commitment to identify and deploy advanced technologies that have the potential to improve the reliability and performance of our electrical grid infrastructure, for the benefit of consumers in New York State."

"Successfully testing and gaining approval to ship our second Smart Energy Matrix demonstration system is another step toward proving that our flywheel technology is viable for wider commercial deployment," said Bill Capp, Beacon Power president and CEO. "With one demonstration system already in California and this one soon to be installed in New York, we can show how Beacon's high-energy flywheels provide a cleaner and better-performing alternative to conventional fossil fuel-based frequency regulation services - and do so cost-effectively. The NYSERDA system was enhanced to enable it to also provide uninterruptible power to the site, as well as volt-amperes reactive power, or VARs, which help stabilize power to electrical equipment. Having these additional capabilities allows us to demonstrate that the Smart Energy Matrix can also meet the technical requirements for several other commercially viable applications," Capp added.

During the acceptance testing, the ability of Beacon's Smart Energy Matrix to follow signals required for frequency regulation and to provide VAR support was confirmed. Testing for these functionalities involved verification of key performance parameters including: system communications (with a new graphical user interface that further simplifies monitoring and operation); compliance with a range of application-specific charging and discharging profiles; and demonstration of normal system operation and shutdown modes.

In addition to supporting the system demonstrations in New York and California, Beacon continues its progress to develop its next-generation 25-kWh flywheel, which will be the core component of the full-power Smart Energy Matrix. That project remains on schedule, with a prototype expected to be ready for testing in late 2006.
