    On Friday right near the close I wrote this:
    <b><a href="http://livevol.blogspot.com/2010/09/chtp.html">Chelsea Therapeutics (CHTP) - Bio-tech Stock Pops</a></b>.

    I noted a wild pop in CHTP out of nowhere. The Tick Chart from that day is included (<a href="http://livevol.blogspot.com/2010/09/chtp_20.html">in the article</a>):

    Today we finally get the follow through on the news. The Phase III results were positive, vol is gone, stock is ripping (though well of the day highs. The Key Developments snap from Livevol Pro (from Reuters) is included <a href="http://livevol.blogspot.com/2010/09/chtp_20.html">in the article</a>:

    Hopefully some of you made some money on this. I didn't.
