the first thing I do when commencing research on a company is check out charts of many time spans.it gives you an idea of where it's been and where it's going.to concentrate all focus on minute,daily charts is useless IMO unless your a day trader/scalper(I love a good scalp btw).

if you take a long position in a company,fundamentals are paramount.the aim is to buy low and sell high to make the real doe.

IMO,within the next 6 months the heads will be 10c+.

so the old TA vs FA battles will always be played out but IMO they both have there place depending on your time strategy.

btw,I've reconsidered partying like it was 1999(getting older lol) and will be buying a nice tranche today.good luck!
