Metro is the service I personally use, although I do not own (PCS) stock, It has been on my radar. Strong resistants between 11.50 and 12.50. I would think this is very close to the bottom. Buy in low sell high, Gain a couple bucks with in 30 days maybe 16.50 earn 4.00 dollars and press that button. It is like playing deal or no deal. Why did'nt I buy in.  Billions of monies, I am still a rookie. Give one to the beachboy, hey wait what about sprint. Billions! Is this seventy-five words yet.

Winning fans on Wall Street for its business model of flat-rate wireless-communication services with no signed contract, MetroPCS opened at $25.10 a share, above its $23 IPO price. The shares climbed to end their first session at $27.40.
