It depends on your intentions. I'm a buy and hold person and I don't use TA at all.. I rarely sell and prefer to build up dividend income to supplement my regular income. I'm not anti TA either, its just doesn't suit me. So whether you agree or disagree philisophically with my investing style hopefully you can see where I'm coming from.

I only posted (perhaps to my peril ;-) to this thread because I am in the ISP/Telco industry, have worked for small publicly listed telcos and I know about the VOIP and can deciper the fluff from the company reports. Not because I like or dislike the stock..

I was trying to offer a perspective in about the only industry I know anything about I recommend this book is you *really* want to learn about VOIP but trust me - you don't

So you may rightly argue that my attitude is a direct result of bad experiences in working in this industry - and you'd be dead right! Telco decision making goes like this.. "We have two options, A and B. Option A is half the cost of option B, but will not look as good when we announce it to the ASX, so lets go with option B"

In relation to your question of competitors, I did see just today that Primus are getting in on the act..
