Will be watching CHKP closely for a pullback, from March to July a Head and Shoulders pattern was formed.

CHKP reversing a bit after it gapped up into all time news highs following better than expected earnings. fibo levels .5 or .61 would be a decent level that I would consider to add to my exisiting position.
expecting prices considerably above 100 if market stays strong. max stop remains pivot level
If this stock would break through the Level 87-90, a cyclical longterm buying-wave can be exspected. Target of this wave could be 110$
Trading below 75/71 will break the trend.

With yesterday's bar being very bullish (on higher volume) the uptrend looks set to continue....
