Would this be a good time to buy VWPT?  It looks like it's breaking out after bouncing off support at 1.35 or so.  MACD and other indicators turning bullish.

Something may be up here.  Haven't seen volume this large on an up day in ages.  Volume nearly 5x usual.  Can't find any news.  I've followed this dog for a few years and IMO feel there isn't much down side left.  I've been waiting for a ray of light to re-enter.

Forgot to post the daily chart.  Notice the volume went crazy after 2pm.  May be an exciting open tomorrow.

Well, well, well.  Volume took off from 400K to 780K+ in a few minutes.  Up 10%.

Very unusual for this stock.  If it finishes up on high volume again I'd be afraid that the world will end. ;)

I know. I've held this one for awhile now, and the abnormally high volume (for VWPT) along with the white candle yesterday is encouraging! It has also broke its descending trendline, so we'll see how it handles the resistance at about $1.42....

It may be that I'll finally be out of the VWPT hole - or you could be right and the world is going to end!  ;)

thunderbunny,

I hope you get out of that hole.  Many people have been in it.  I lost a lot on this one over the years.  Now I keep some funds aside and wait for an entry point.  Sometimes they're months apart but that's ok.  When it looks good I get back in, like today.  Short term only, usually a 2-4 day run.  I'm wondering if there's a buyout in the works because I can't find anything going on for this action.

If it crosses the 50DMA at 1.46 I'm putting on a hard hat and sitting in a corner waiting for the sky to fall!!! :)

Go VWPT (from your biggest fan).

Won't post a chart as already done, but bought VWPT yesterday because volume and 1 day red candle showed me it was going to fill up to $1.50 zone. If the great vol continues and it should as this move will put it on loads of momo filters then i am looking for a spike towrds the 200ema $1.95 area. Some speculation that the contract for GE and Rolls Royce (huge fighter aircraft build) has had an effect on this run. Don't know myself, but the chart says up ;)

OK now we know why the volume kicked in on Tuesday. Might be an interesting few days trading on VWPT following this news. The new CEO's 1.5M options will be priced as at the opening bell Thursday. I have a sell around $2, will see.

Patrick Vogt Named Chief Executive Officer at Viewpoint; Board Member Takes Reins After Leading Sony, HP, and Dell E-Business Divisions; Company Schedules August 25th Conference Call at 10 a.m. ET 
8/24/2005 4:00:09 PM 
NEW YORK, Aug 24, 2005 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Viewpoint Corporation ( VWPT ) today named Patrick Vogt president and chief executive officer, effective August 25th. Mr. Vogt, already a member of the Viewpoint board, has run major divisions of Dell, Hewlett Packard, and Sony over the past twelve years, and is one of the most highly-regarded executives in the technology industry.

"I've been involved with Viewpoint for seven years as a customer, advisor, advocate and board member, and am ecstatic about the opportunity to lead the company, its employees, and its customers to new levels of success," said Mr. Vogt. "Jay Amato did a great job focusing the company's product strategy, while placing the company on a solid path to profitability and positive operating cash flow. Now we're in position to drive top line growth while maintaining focus on operating efficiencies, and therefore continue the trend to profitability."

Jay Amato, current President and CEO, said, "My two-year assignment with the company had several overriding goals: to find new sources of revenue that were scalable and predictable and to bring stability to the company's financial picture. Now, we have achieved those goals and we are well positioned to grow all lines of our business: online advertising through the Unicast Advertising group; the consumer side via the Viewpoint Search Toolbar and our new Fotomat photo service; and in our outstanding Creative Services team. Patrick's experience in online sales, advertising and marketing makes him an ideal candidate to take the company to the next level."

Vogt has more than 18 years experience managing, marketing, selling and providing strategic planning for the direct businesses of world-renowned corporations. Vogt joins Viewpoint after serving as the senior vice president and senior general manager for Sony Electronics Inc., where he headed the direct business for all Sony products across all customer segments, e-business for all distribution channels, and all direct marketing. Prior to his position with Sony, Vogt was vice president and general manager with the Hewlett-Packard Corporation where he ran the Americas' eBusiness Group, including sales, marketing, operations and the internet properties. Vogt also worked for Dell Computer Corporation where he was the head of Dell Online and general manager of aftermarket business. Prior to Dell, Vogt had his first stint at Sony Electronics Inc. where he founded and built Sony's direct and Internet business. Vogt earned a master's of business administration degree in marketing from Iona College and holds a Bachelor of Science degree from the State University of New York at Oneonta. Vogt is married with four children.

"I am very familiar with the company's products, technology, and business units from my board position," said Mr Vogt. "Working with Bill Mitchell and the rest of the senior management team, I expect this to be an extraordinarily smooth transition and am confident we'll stay on track towards the financial performance management has previously outlined for the rest of the year."

Mr. Vogt's new contract runs through the end of 2009. In connection therewith, on August 25th, Viewpoint will grant a total of 1,500,000 options to purchase its common stock to Mr. Vogt at an exercise price equal to the opening price of Viewpoint's stock on the date of grant. This grant was approved by Viewpoint's Board of Directors and met the "employee inducement" exception to NASDAQ's rules adopted in 2003 requiring shareholder approval of equity-based incentive plans. The options have been classified as non-qualified stock options, have an exercise price equal to the fair market value on the grant date, have a seven-year term, and vest over four years, subject to continued employment and other conditions.

Conference Call

To discuss the management transition, Viewpoint has scheduled a conference call and live Web cast to be held tomorrow, August 25th at 10:00 AM ET. Patrick Vogt and Jay Amato will participate.

The conference call will be available via the Internet in the Investor Relations section of Viewpoint's Web site at http://www.viewpoint.com, as well as through CCBN at www.companyboardroom.com.

VWPT consolidating nicely in a continuation flag,  lower shadows on the candles within the flag and volume contraction signify a set up for the next upward move.

Still in the continuation flag following todays pullback which was on low volume, on a market down day. Now sitting just at the 9ema, so, poised to move one way or the other can't be sure at this stage.
