DAMN that looks good! HMMMM Wish I had some spare $$$$
Might have to find some somewhere
the impending R/S isnt until December so I think we have plenty of time for a good bounce. watch YRCW too. it has a great history of bouncing on pinches. Im hoping for a quick spike up on GNTA so I can exit before YRCW bottoms - looks like it has a couple days before Id consider a position. ONCS is another but low volume will probably keep me away.

Yea! Had my eye on GNTA but it didn't show any sign of a reversal until today...possibly. As long as it holds even or green today I'm in! Should be a good play!
Son of a! didnt see your post until just now. would have been a nice quick turn; that was nice! been traveling for work and dinkin' around with EVGI waiting for a pop - sold half yesterday and the rest this morning when BDPS didnt pump up the pinch. could be good for a re-entry later in a week or two but who knows. Watching GNTA intently though. had a couple good intra day swings that I didnt play - waiting for the daily for a double. if it closes even or green today I might just try it on. some of my indicators are turning. if the selling pressure stops from this financier selling his shares could be good for a pincher pop
Thanx very much for the reply and your time
Cheers
There wasnt much volume prior to this extended decline. It certainly is in a pinch but not one I would feel comfortable picking a bottom. all the volume has been in this decline so its not the typical bounce Id like to see.
Just finishing my big board pincher PCRX today sometime most likely. The pincher scan has been light over the past week or two after SO many around from 8/5-8/12. Id say watch PCBK, WWON, CYBE, CHRM, CHKE. Some are a bit light on volume but look really nice. also GNTA might turn into a nice pinch in the next day or two and both that one and AQUS might be good penny bouncers.
good luck on ATTD if you do hit that one. BC's Bouncers board - might be following that one too;
need to get back to posting on this board. I always get side tracked with work and start forgetting to!
Hey Cytis, what do you think of ATTD right now??
Thanx for your help

I am Fu*&!ing kicking myself right now; read the damn chart wrong and missed out on at least half my gain on LEAP. should have known especially with the crazy insider buying going on trying to get control of company- damn it
said goodbye to LEAP this morning. caught between two of my sell indicators and as I (re) learned last week with SPLM; lock in solid gains, dont be greedy. same thing happened and she reversed w/ a quickness on me. found 2 very interesting plays. one needs a coulple days to mature before I make a call on it, but exited leap and poured it all into STXS, missed half of today's bounce but she should be good through to the end of the week. Would like to see north of 1.75 but dont see any reason it doesnt hit 1.5. We'll see how the indicators unroll and update then.
Wow. glad I took half off the table last night. SPLM really pissed me off today when I got a chance to look at it. Been wrapped up in meetings all day dang it. not that I could have gotten the rest of my position out at any better price than I did today. I thought she'd peeter out today but thought it would be at least in the same vicinity as yesterday's high- geesh.
Perfect call on the SPLM! We had to wait a couple days before she came around but that was well played!
Haha yessir! Look at that thing go!! :)
We havin' fun yet!?
looks like she's coming around today though
Yea, I was ready for a nice move on SPLM but it's a dud at the moment....
after a little fake out on the 26th AMPE looks like its ready finally - SPLM is taking its sweet fu#&ing time which is driving me nuts; Id rather be sitting mostly cash coming into Aug 2nd...
Watching VRAL for a fast bump tomorrow...
Also jumped on the MTG train...got in a little late but it's lookin good!
Hey cytis. Just wanted to send out a super early watch on RDN. This thing has been pinching every month or so and it's about due for another!
yeah - dang huh; saw the triple dragon fly dojis and was thinking about it too; oh well.... cant hit em all
haha! yea I assumed so...guess I should rework my triggers then...
I was actually looking at GSL but didn't see a strong enough volume for me to pull the trigger...
Cheers cytis and thx for the informative reply
Sci-guy
This little bugger kind of ran away when I wasnt looking - thought the 8.15 bottomish area was going to stick around until the end of the day; came back from a meeting and it was in the 8.30's already- nice to see a strong close from there tho - if it would have dropped back I would have been a little peeved
Here are two other very similar setups I declined to chase today-
LTBR
GSL
hmmmm - thats a trade secret! lol! no, really though; its sort of chart recognition at this point. Everything for me starts off with the PPO/ADX lines and the MACD in some form or fashion for the buy and sell triggers.
it looks great but to be honest it kind of scares me at this point- the first pinch was awesome because there was still a *possibility of something coming in at the bell and turning it around; ie a competing offer...but at this point I think its pretty much done. not enough of a possibility to spark any sizeable rally; wayyyyy too much downside. I typically dont care what a company does, make widgets, sell do-hickies etc, but I do check their filings to make sure its not on the brink of a reverse split, or trading halt, or under investigation etc. Synth Trader (or maybe TycoonSoon?) brought up a good point a while back and I see many pinchers on chinese stocks, but they're too hot as many end up halted or some investigation reveals their balance sheets are actually empty or something like that. Pinchers are great, but not fool proof; a company that falls to zero will show a great pincher - doesnt mean there isnt a concrete reason its there. That being said, dont be deterred by bad news alone - many times these are the best pinchers; overreaction to some statement. the company comes back and clarifies and youre back off to the races! but Im pretty sure BGPIQ is done or close to it; but if youre a gambling man by all means....
Good lookin chart Cytis...what is your strongest buy trigger? Lately my buy triggers haven't been hitting but the pinch occurs...
What do you think of BGPIQ at this point?
Seems to be a double pinch hehe
Thx cytis
yeah - the low-ish volume was the one thing I had to get over. Hoping for big things next week from NLST and VLNC.
Agreed. The volume is a little low, but looks like it held strong today. Good call!
I know!! Wow...definitely didn't see BQI bumping like that today...didn't look like it was quite ready...oh well :)
got out at 1.24; a little off target but a good gain anyway. trying to get back to big board unless a penny looks real real perfect. gotta get back to deploying a lot of capital in one or two shots rather than splitting it up and monitoring these volitile pennyer lol! getting too hard to get out of some of these more -illiquid, low volume pinchers with any meaningful position
looks like BQI didnt hold its open price eek! looks a lot more attractive now though!
Yea. Oh and nice pinch on GMR! Somehow that one fell through the cracks in my watch list...
agreed! if BQI stays above yesterdays close; I think today is your confirmation.
looking to jump out of GMR today; really wanted 1.27 for a 20% rip on my buy but I cant get greedy for a point or two- watching closely.
Nice list cytis. Glad I found your board! Wanted to add BQI to your list. We have had some similar picks as of late...
need to put my head down and get to work here. back to bread and putter pinchers; not looking for homers; confident high volume singles and doubles will win the game. Gotta bring the big boards back into the picture.
Full watch list - charts to come on weekends again.

RFMD late day trading shows follow through of the thoughts below. Excellent for RFMD. I also followed up with checking tickers for semi conductor manufacturers with big Japan exposure in manufacturing and they all gapped down today -
http://www.prlog.org/11374320-japan-earthquake-might-result-in-global-semiconductor-shortage.html
PRLog (Press Release) – Mar 15, 2011 – Affected by the earthquake in Japan, in early today the trading semiconductor chip A stocks shares rose rapidly. It will also affect the whole electronic components industry supply.
Japanese earthquake might result in worldwide semiconductor shortage, lead to the volatility of semiconductor market prices, prices of electronic products. Japan accounted for 20% of the world's semiconductor manufacturing, micro-chip output value reached 63.3 billion U.S. dollars. Japan External Trade Commission issued under the investment information display, from the epicenter of the Iwate Prefecture gathered close to many major semiconductor manufacturers, including Toshiba Electronics semiconductor production factory, Fujitsu and Motorola's semiconductor plant in Japan's semiconductor factories. Insiders said that Japanese is the most serious earthquake in Iwate Prefecture and Miyagi Prefecture, the two regions is the headquarters of Toshiba. Toshiba's NAND factory and factory are located in the CMOS sensor (CMOS sensor would have to supply), while Toshiba is the second largest manufacturers of NAND, so the earthquake is able to drive the semiconductor chip prices skyrocketing, especially in memory chips.
Miyagi Prefecture is the northeastern Japan city of the electronics industry, Sony \ Toshiba \ NEC \ Fujitsu \ Motorola \ red appliances are semiconductor plant, which Toshiba NAND memory and CMOS sensors are factory, NAND memory is Toshiba's main product, the global market share of over 30%, follow by Samsung. Toshiba's CMOS sensor is located in Iwate plant is the only of its largest CMOS sensor factory. Once the power cut off for the semiconductor devices, the production line of products will be all scrapped, and need to re-adjust the machines. Sony has six factories in Miyagi, including automotive electronics \ Sony Chemical Business \ Sony professional television broadcast equipment.
LCD panel may also be compromised, Sharp's LCD home base in Mie Prefecture, Mie Prefecture in Japan, the most eastern part of the Kii Peninsula. LCD equipment precision exception, small vibrations can cause shutdown, re-adjust the machine. Japan is also a LCD glass substrate The main producing area, Corning and Asahi Glass substrate production may also be affected. In addition the world's first LED maker Nichia Tokushima Prefecture is located, may also be affected. Taiwan will be the biggest beneficiaries, including wafer \ Memory \ LED \ panel business.
Back from vaca this week! can only take so much beach. good to be back in my routine. RFMD had a good run on last pinch - took a position yesterday - got a little scared this morning looking at dow futures but she is positive on the day while the down is down 250+. good sign of strength and that this is a bottom on RFMD. lets hope that is the case.
should be a lot of new pinchers formed though on BB after today - might run a new scan tonight. timid mkt. still, Im surprised its taken this much chaos to start a little tumble. when/if the smoke clears there will be good gains to be had on many pinchers-
This nook is for the open discussion and investment idea sharing of all sorts related to different types of Pincher Plays; Weekly to Intraday.
Current watch lists, and indicators used for identification, acquisition, and disposition at a successful exit are all aspects of the pincher play process we can work together to optimize.
This board is being created for those who are already familiar with Pinchers; experienced in their own success and failures and have a more advanced grasp of charting and tech analysis.
Posters should try to preface or at least specify the play they discussing; ie a daily pincher forming on a XXX or an intraday 60min pinch on ZZZ. Please include charts/images when you can to accompany posts to reduce the time of the group in checking out the play.
This board is not for advertisement of other tech plays and/or other boards;
I dont intend on advertising this board; those who come do so out of their own curiousity - call it fate
