i don’t have the cojones to short CRM.
June 30th, 2008 at 1:09 pmI hear you.
Meanwhile, ICO heating up.
June 30th, 2008 at 1:22 pmI’m in MA puts and it’s starting to look good…
June 30th, 2008 at 1:46 pmShorting CRM right here @ 68.64, with a stop @ 69.05.
June 30th, 2008 at 1:46 pmBoca, I will join you.
June 30th, 2008 at 1:48 pmi like the WFR short right here below 62.
I also am short EBAY via puts. below 27.2 is bad for ebay.
June 30th, 2008 at 2:07 pmCajun, are you going to hold your MA puts overnight? I don’t want to get an itchy trigger finger and leave a lot of profits on the table.
June 30th, 2008 at 2:08 pmyes indeed, setup looks too good! fun times.
BTW, CRM next to fall.
June 30th, 2008 at 2:12 pmGunners, WFR looks ready to DIE.
June 30th, 2008 at 2:14 pmthere goes CRM.
June 30th, 2008 at 2:16 pmA very good day indeed. BTW you deserve big props for the MA idea in your video last night, thanks.
Gunners, I have WFR puts too.
June 30th, 2008 at 2:17 pmThe beauty of this thread, all stocks mentioned in comments were on the top ten list.
Time machine?
iBC wins again.
June 30th, 2008 at 2:18 pmHell, I took notes on your video and then checked all the stocks out. Give this man a medal or something!
June 30th, 2008 at 2:22 pmRC,
I’m trying to demo Think or Swim’s paper trading web-based platform, but it seems really buggy and slow. Do you use the web-based or desktop platform? Have any issues with either one?
June 30th, 2008 at 2:22 pmThanks Boca, where’s Hybrid 08?
Pro, i find web based a little slow myself. I only use the desktop, which is superior and lighting fast.
June 30th, 2008 at 2:25 pmCajun, if you saw a chart like GU, wouldn’t you short the lights out of it? Still holding long? if so, why?
Thanks.
June 30th, 2008 at 2:34 pmGreat job, RC! This place is quickly becoming one of my favorite stops! Keep the coin coming….
June 30th, 2008 at 2:38 pmThanks, RC. I’ll have to see if I can figure out tunneling…
June 30th, 2008 at 2:46 pmJuice,
I’m still long, and although it looks like a short, volume is so thin that any good news could send it 5 points higher.
I went over the last quarter and everything looked great, record numbers, sustained growth, ect. I will continue to add to this position until i see reason to sell.
June 30th, 2008 at 2:57 pmNote: GGB ripping.
another watchlist victory.
June 30th, 2008 at 2:58 pmGGB really looks good, the whole steel sector is smoking. What do you think about MTL (Stalnaya Gruppa Mechel), which looks more like a short, but considering the steel sector performance should push higher?
June 30th, 2008 at 3:12 pmEarnings for steel companies out next week, I think SCHN is up first. This should give another boost to the sector.
Don’t ignore GGB here!
June 30th, 2008 at 3:14 pmRC,
How are your commissions with Think or Swim? Know of any other brokers with low commissions? Thanks.
June 30th, 2008 at 3:27 pmI put in one of my company’s proxy servers, and the ToS desktop app can connect! WIN. Now to just figure out how to use the thing.
Jimmy,
Totally depends on how often you trade. Zecco is free for 20 trades per month, IIRC.
June 30th, 2008 at 3:31 pmadded to GGB at the 20 MA (5 min)
June 30th, 2008 at 3:35 pmCagey — one caution on GGB. Starting about May 19th or so, it looks like one of those “widening bullhorn” type formations — higher highs, lower lows. In a schitty market, those can end in tragedy.
Also, BRICs will shit a …. well, you know, if the dollar continues tankage.
June 30th, 2008 at 3:37 pmagreed. However, I have an exit nearby, the 50 day.
Stay tunned.
June 30th, 2008 at 3:39 pmThanks, Pro.
June 30th, 2008 at 3:50 pmICO does not seem ready. yet.
June 30th, 2008 at 3:54 pmNot sure why I came out as “Anonymous” above, but that was me.
June 30th, 2008 at 4:14 pmNRP with a healthy gain, considering it’s “all assets/no operations” safety level.
June 30th, 2008 at 4:49 pmHybrid’s right here bitches
The gains today were minimal at best (from top 10). 1 and 2 percent is small time. Talk to me when your up 10% plus on trades. 25 cents here and there isnt getting anyone rich.
Cajun, Ill go headed to head with you next week on a top 10. Person who has the biggest percentage gain on all ten combined, wins?
You want some of this? Lets throw some cash on it.
Here the deal: you cant use any picks that were featured this week on this blog or OA blog. THe only stocks you can use are what s put up on Sunday night-cant add stocks during the week.
You gonna step up or you gonna back the fuck down?
Dont get me wrong, I appreciate what you are doing and I think you have been on a little roll.
