I have dicovered ADAM on Dec 19, around midnight runing my search engines...Got in at market open, and now I am enjoying this ride.....I would not short ADAM, as long as stock is "green" on this kind of  daily volumes...

I have made "presenation, short analysis" for my guys....I will post that Presentation...It was done on Dec 20...Here we are:


Now I would like to present to you my analysis of ADAM....

In general, this is a small cap company, considered to be in the  internet health care business ( IT health care ), so not cyclical, steady growth, solid revenue, and EPS....Last earnings report ( November 1 ), was very solid, and they just got "good news" on December 14, major contract with Baylor Health Care System...Their web site is:http://www.adam.com/

1. Fundamental analysis: very good, all GO

-ROE + 76, ROA + 54%, profit margin +82%, PE-9.2
-  ultra small cap 65 M, float 6.9 M
- EPS up, for last 8 consecutive Qs, revenue, as well
- istit. ownership at 16%, 20 institutions, excellent!, last three months ALL  buying, almost no selling
- no insider activity, almost non-existing shorts...

2. Technical analysis: excellent, all GO

- long basing pattern ( around 10 months! ), and NOW at breakout point....
- appears like "perfect cup", with handle that just happened two days ago..
- ALL moving MA ( 10, 20, 30, 50, and 200 days ) are ALL lined up..
-  28 days MA took of  ( on the beginning of November ) above 50 days MA
- 50 days MA "just" touched 200 days MA, and went up...
- price rules are giving "buy signals"...
- last four days significant increase in average daily volume!!

3. News: very good, all GO

- very solid earnings report
- new contract with Baylor
- positive article in MF
- there is Yahoo MB, not that great, but the board is very serene, no hype, no
 shorts....

Now Panta is right. From TA point of view,  ADAM had entry point two days ago. Yesterday long doji, on very big volume...Not good signal, it means a lot of opposite views. I thought one possibility: a lot of day traders taking profit, and a lot of others taking long position on news two day ago...( What is doji? Doji is a candlestick signal, that happens when open and close price of the stock are the same in one day..Meaning? Most of the time: reversal of trend...)

What made me buy this stock today? Fundamental analysis! I am "confident" that this stock is very good...But I had my stops today, just in case that I am wrong, and my analysis was not good...

PS: I will not use trailing strops till price hit 11.90, or daily volumes get significantly down....

This is another growing company---

-- Low volume (out of wall street radar) -----just like HANS 3 to 5 years ago...
-- We got Ascending Triangle Breakout
-- 52 week high $8.77 yesterday.... today closed @ 8.44
