Has made a breakout from the Symmetrical Triangle (continuation) Pattern
The news> volume surge and price action
• Forgent records revenue jump...
• Forgent shares rally; co. swings to profit in first quarter...

They own the patents on JPEG/images
DVR's is another plus 5 years from now. Deal with google should be interesting, since its non-disclosure for all these patents claims, never know how much each one gave FORG, but earnings should give a decent picture.
Now, Forgent has litigation pending against 12 companies in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas in Tyler for infringement of another patent.

Thanks for combining threads. Accidentally "smited" you for it but made up for it with a hefty "applaud."  Thanks.

Don't know how much more FORG has left but volume suggests more.

Looking for an entry tomorrow around support which is near the 1.34 where FORG  closed Tuesday, if the steep trendline is to hold.

Keep climbing those Steps.

[kslifka]

Darn...missed this one this morning even when the MM's dropped it to 1.25.

Looking good though

Oscient Pharmaceuticals Trading Volume Surges As European Marketing Opportunities Expand


NEW YORK (AP) -- The following companies showed unusually heavy volume in Friday afternoon trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market. Higher-than-normal volume can indicate increased activity by institutions such as mutual funds and insurance companies. Upward stock movement on such volume can show higher investor confidence, while selling can signal pressure on a stock.


Oscient Pharmaceuticals Corp. traded more than usual after it said it amended a contract for its Factive antibiotic with LG Life Sciences Ltd. to include several European countries in the licensing agreement. Trading volume increased to 2.6 million from a usual daily volume of 110,000. Shares added $1.12, or 27 percent, to $5.32.

ZI Corp., which makes text-prediction software for wireless handsets, traded heavily after it said its board now includes Milos Djokovic, Donald Hyde, Michael Lobsinger, Donald Moore, Robert Stefanski and Richard Tingle. Volume increased to 2.3 million shares, contrasted to a usual daily volume of 246,000, while shares rose 38 cents, or 19 percent, to $2.43.

Forgent Networks Inc., which makes scheduling software and data compression products, saw its trading volume surge seven times its usual to about 4.8 million shares, moving on no immediately available news. Shares added 32 cents, or 23 percent, to $1.69.

Beacon Power Corp. traded four times more heavily than usual, with about 1.9 million shares moving, after the company said a preproduction unit of its new storage and energy delivery product malfunctioned. Shares fell 12 cents, or 10.7 percent, to 97 cents.

I certainly agree that today's is an inverted hammer.  Yahoo and stockcharts both show it touched 2.0 today.  However how much volume was traded above 1.8?  I have a feeling it was very little volume - almost like a market maker shafted someone on a market order.  So the inverted hammer may not be as bad as it looks.  Sorry I don't have any data to back up what I'm saying it's just a "gut feeling" I have.  If anyone has data to show the volume of trades above 1.8 please share it.

Today really was great though!  I entered this morning at 1.45 just before it really took off.  Let's hope it holds the gains and then some.

Dutton Associates Announces Investment Opinion: Forgent Networks Speculative Buy Rating Maintained By Dutton Associates

EL DORADO HILLS, Calif., Jan 30, 2007 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Dutton Associates updates its coverage of Forgent Networks (Nasdaq:FORG), maintaining a Speculative Buy rating and a target price of $2.40. The 11-page report by Dutton senior analyst Richard West, CFA is available at www.jmdutton.com as well as from First Call, Bloomberg, Zacks, Reuters, Knobias, and other leading financial portals.

Forgent Networks' successful program of licensing its intellectual property, generated revenue of more than $122.0 million in fees over the past five years. Since our October 10, 2006, Research Report, Forgent's Intellectual Property program has suffered some setbacks and is now waiting upon possible settlements in the outcome of the pending trial for the '746 patent. In the face of the uncertainty surrounding the '746 Patent litigation, we lowered our rating to Neutral on December 1, 2006. However, considering Forgent's cash position, the Court's denial of a motion to stay the '746 Patent litigation pending the outcome of the US Patent Office re-examination of the '746 Patent, its maintaining listing on the NASDAQ Global Market Exchange, and that its common stock has moved up from the first of December price of $0.50 per share to its current level of $1.60 per share on heavy volume (3.2 million daily average shares in the month of December), we reiterate our January 3rd rating of Speculative Buy with a 12-month price target being set at $2.00 per share. We caution investors to consider the risks of the unknown results from the '746 Patent litigation, which is scheduled for trial in May 2007.

May 18 (Reuters) - Forgent Networks Inc. (FORG) said DirecTV Inc. agreed to pay $8 million as part of a patent lawsuit settlement related to a computer controlled video system that allows playback during recording.

Forgent agreed to grant a patent license to DirecTV and both parties agreed to release all claims against each other as part of the settlement, the company said in a regulatory filing.

In July 2005, Forgent, a maker of scheduling software, had sued 15 companies for allegedly infringing upon its patent.

In April this year, the company said it settled the lawsuit with nine out of 15 companies and would get $20 million from them. (Reporting by Shikhar Balwani in Bangalore)
