Recommendation
This company showed poor financial results for the 4th quarter and also they received a very disappointing reply from the FDA provided concerning their flagship AFREZZA drug. They came really short of analysts expectations but this seems to be a great occasion to accumulate common stock in this company. Call option contracts also seem to be undervalued for this company.
Entry strategy
For the cautious investor:
At the time of writing, it is suggested to initiatiate a long position. Keep in mind however that one should buy the stock for 4.00$ or less.
For the risk-taking trader:
The May 2011 5$ call option contract seems to be the right position to take, they can be acquired for 15$ per contract.

For the cautious investor:
Sell when the stock reaches 7.00$, or keep it until 9.00$ if the stock crosses the light resistance level.
For the risk-taking trader:
The contracts should be kept until the underlying reaches around 7.00$, as for the cautious investor.
