From the big buy to the first sell which was based off max green BOP turning away from the max green territory (the next day not pictured) gave a wonderful 67% gain in one month and three weeks. This was considered a Monster Stock despite the less than 100% return because it was such an easy stock to LOAD UP, the entry was perfect, and the chart is just stunning with its perfect beauty. However, it did return a full 100% as it gained 108% in six months when I made my second big sell and returned 126% in nine months and three weeks by the final top. I did not get the exact top but still took 110% at my final sell.
