Five9, Inc. (FIVN)

[tapioca]

Can't believe what I'm seeing here...this has been walked down for the past week on fairly moderate volume. It's very very strange what has happened AGAIN...right down to the $5 mark..and right after it broke into the 6's. I wonder how many stop orders were executed on the way down. I guess my main take of all this is ..WTF?

[tapioca]

Another heavy correction here. Still hanging tough and holding every share. MM's need their shares I guess!

[tapioca]

Trading in 5.90s by Friday as I had hoped for. Looks like 6's next week. Volume has been way above average with heavy buying lately. Very very bullish now.

[tapioca]

Broke thru 6 today on a high volume news day but couldn't hold....looking great though!

[tapioca]

Yea, I thought we had said goodbye to the 5.60s, a little frustrating to say the least. A juicy piece of news certainly wouldn't hurt..

[Dagun]

Up on a down day yesterday and down on an up day today.

[tapioca]

There is this seller that comes in at the end of the day sometimes and bid whacks this back down right before closing bell.. Drives me nuts.
Yes I like the sound of 6's.

[diannedawn]

I'm hoping to break into 6's....
Then maybe we can put these 5's behind us
And chop around in the 6's for a few months
:)

[tapioca]

Been breaking through resistance levels, recently at 5.75 on above average volume. Seems to be plenty of interest in this gem. Would love to see it trading in 5.90s by weeks end...

[tapioca]

Yes indeed..ha. just eternal optimists.)

[diannedawn]

Yeah, I'm pretty confident we found a good one here...
and the BEST THING?
No Freakin' pumpers in sight!

or anyone else for that matter...LOL...
:)

Have a great weekend!

I should add though...I'm really starting to get a little peeved
with all the insider selling...
http://www.sec.gov/cgi-bin/own-disp?action=getissuer&CIK=0001288847

When a stock like bebe with 60% insider ownership has sells...
meh...
these guys only have a small % to begin with...

[tapioca]

It's held up very well here with a new base in 5.70 range and although it hasn't broken through resistance right above, it's bounced off the support level of 5.58 a couple of times.
Yea I think Aug.for the Q. It churned very nicely today and finished at HOD at 5.71. Great for a friday. I'm pretty happy with this stock as you can see...) Higher highs on the way.

[diannedawn]

Looks like we'll take another trip down...
I wonder if it will chop back and forth all summer?
Oh well...

is the next Q in August?
Maybe there will be a catalysis then to move us into the 6's?

[diannedawn]

Bumping up against resistance for the 3rd time...
will this be the time it breaks through?

3rd time's the charm?
:)

[tapioca]

Love these huge buys on heavy volume on this sweet friday. Maybe something brewing for next week. Great comeback!

[tapioca]

Tested that $5 mark and it barely held but it held. Looking for some stable ground here..

[tapioca]

Haven't heard of it, but I don't do the flipping of
stocks like I used to. I got burned too many times, and
I feel unless you're on the "inside" you're at a huge disadvantage.
I trade with Schwab and know that my order will go through as quickly
as possible without any curveballs.
I'm not in heavy anywhere either, but those nice gains we had have
been wiped out. Never thought we'd see this level again. Down almost
a buck from it's recent high of 5.94. OUCH. hope for better days next week.
Still comfortable with my 4.06 entry point.

[diannedawn]

YuP...

Just goes to show you we really have NO control here.

Just let them play their games and go with the flow...
It would not surprise me at all, if it dips below 5 to try and shake peeps out.
If I can free up some cash, I might add a few shares, if it dips that low.
Its times like this that I always kick myself and think ...
I could have sold and now re-bought...yada yada yada...
but hindsight is 20/20
and then you have the extra fees for buying and selling...
and my trading accounts are just my fun/gambling money
so that just doesn't make sense for me.
I'm not playing with huge amounts here...LOL...

Have you heard about Robinhood? Its a new FREE brokerage account you can get on your phone (at least iphone)...
I'm trying it out.
It really is free to trade....
there are some limitations...
I ran into a couple tickers that I could not place trades on.
Their charts SUCK...but I have my other account with Scottrade, so no biggie there.

I might try flipping more if I can flip for FREE!!!
:)
have a nice weekend

[tapioca]

25,000 shares just dumped to bring it from 5.18 right back
down to 5.10.. wow.

[tapioca]

Bounced off the support level almost all the way to
5.10. Someone or MM's wanted it down. Everytime
buying came in almost getting it back into the 5.20's
it was dragged back down, and quick! I was gone for literally
2 mins and came back and there it was down to 5.11.
Just goes to show you we really have NO control here.

[tapioca]

Man this is being shorted to death, christ.

[tapioca]

This is oversold now...
Time to stabilize here...

[diannedawn]

That would be nice!

just need those
insider buys to reappear.

[tapioca]

I spoke too soon.. damn..

[tapioca]

Looks like the selling has finally dried up, just need those
insider buys to reappear. Waiting game now..

[tapioca]

yea, there is selling, but just enough buying it seems
to hold it in the 5.50 range. A nice piece of news could
bring it up, and it's only May, so I'm feeling pretty good about it.

[diannedawn]

Sometimes MS. Market is a batsh!t crazy B!
What's that saying about the Market being able to stay irrational, longer than you can stay solvent?
Not that we are in that situation here...
I'm just saying that I've given up on the Market being rational...
:)

Insiders seem to be selling right now...
and I understand that there can be many reasons for selling...
including to get the $$$ to cover the taxes on all those awards they pass out to themselves...
(another thing I'm not fond of)
http://www.sec.gov/cgi-bin/own-disp?action=getissuer&CIK=0001288847
It would be really nice to see some BUYING.

As long as this holds above 5, I think we'll be okay.
Since it didn't manage to break out on this filing,
I'm thinking it will probably stagnate for now...
and just chop up and down in this range through the summer.

I'd LOVE to be wrong!
:)

[tapioca]

No I haven't waded through it and probably won't.
They bore the hell out of me.
I know that the company is doing well and reducing losses.
We got a good kick up to 5.92 shortly after that release, but
it just can't hold those gains. Annoying. Someone is out to
get FIVN, or keep it caged. I don't get it, but hopefully it breaks
6 by end of summer. We'll see. Need those insider buys again.
I couldn't believe the huge buys pouring in late friday afternoon.
And then just as quick as they came, a seller brought it back down
so fast it was crazy.

[diannedawn]

Sorry...ignore that...was going to reply to you and posted that instead...
brain freeze...
different ticker!
:0

I'm still here...I have not waded through the Q yet.
Have you?

[diannedawn]

Where did he ever say this was set in stone???
I read...

Share price changes or trading volume increases/decreases can impact the outcome, but whatever happens, it would be very difficult to argue the deal will be done in MID-JULY, i.e. 3 months away and 4 MONTHS SOONER THAN INDICATED BY THE REALITY OF THE CURRENT SITUATION!

Sorry...but the esteemed Seth Shaw is the one with the faulty math!!!

Or was it intentional???

I tend to think it was...
I agree whole heartily with this opinion

Seth, Really? So what has been the HIGHEST DOLLAR VOLUME TRADING WEEK since the Typenex dump began on January 26? BIG SHOCK It was your selection to use an example...THE LAST WEEK OF FEBRUARY! The example is COMPLETE BS! IT IS THE MOST SIGNIFICANT OUTLIER! This is another "Stella-ism", i.e. treat the shareholders as if they are numbskulls, incapable of any kind of 5th grade thinking!

[tapioca]

I spoke too soon, as a big seller or MM dumped in
the last 8 minutes and brought it back down .07 to
5.52. Wish we could break out of this pattern in this
area. Trying to stay patient.

[tapioca]

some huge end of day buying happening on this late
friday afternoon. love it.

[tapioca]

Looks like I've lost you again. Good to see we
ended this friday on a green note, very good.
Big week coming up and it's just been a waiting
game here. If the report comes out as what's
expected, my guess is we'll see sideways or
slightly downward trading. If we get something
outstanding I hope we can finally break through
that 5.75 mark. Happy trading!

[tapioca]

I don't think they would have announced the date
of their Q1 nearly a month in advance if it was going
to be bad news.
We finally had a non red day on friday, and would think
we should see a reversal this week and an upward trend
again.

[diannedawn]

Yeah...

Have seen some good profits evaporate here.

That always sucks...
but I think as long as it holds in the 5's
it should be okay.
Still...You just never know...
We could get slammed with a crappy Q and end up back where we started.

No ever went broke taking profits...
but like you, I do not have a whole lot of shares,
so while it would be DEPRESSING...
it certainly won't break me.

I WAS thinking I should sell and take my profits,
but then I started rationalizing with all the reasons why I should just hold...
LOL
I guess we'll see what happens...

BRING ON THE Q!!!
:)

[tapioca]

I read an analyst report on Yahoo, but can't remember
who wrote it. They picked 10 stocks that should move this
year, and I chose 2 that I could afford. The other one I got
into was GIG. In at 1.32. and is up a little.
I would like to see FIVN stop bleeding now. Seems someone
is knocking it down before the Q1 comes out. Been red all week.
Have seen some good profits evaporate here.

[diannedawn]

How did you find this? What report did you read?
I found it because I scan for insider buying...
and even though there is insider selling here too
(seems to be mainly Daniel and Michael Burkland that do the most)
I read a couple of articles that were positive...
http://www.marketwatch.com/story/10-nasdaq-tech-stocks-expected-to-rise-as-much-as-189-2015-02-26?siteid=yhoof2
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/five9-named-one-fastest-growing-131000741.html
and the chart seemed to point towards a reversal.

I really wish I'd bought it when I first found it...
but oh well...
They say you should strive to take a chunk out of the middle,
and not worry about catching the very bottom or top...

Seems I'm in no danger of ever catching the very bottom or top...
:)
I usually procrastinate, and don't pull the trigger...
or I want to, but don't have cash available!
As for selling; I usually hang on too long and watch my profits go down the drain.

Its all a learning experience and I'm getting a LITTLE smarter each year.

[tapioca]

Yea, I think May 12th. I'm the same on this.
I've got such a good position I'd hate to give
it up by selling, and yes would be great to
break the $6 mark in May. Hit 5.94 a week
ago and it's steadily backed up since, but
let people take profit; we both prefer that than
a nose dive. Onward and upward!

[diannedawn]

I'm still here...if you reply to a post of mine it will show up in my mailbox...
otherwise, I don't check on things that don't need checking...
:)

FIVN fits in that category perfectly, as it just keeps holding this range.

No complaints about this find...
It would be nice to see it break through resistance and into the next level...
but I can wait.

Looks like the first Q will be filed in mid May.
Maybe there will be something in there to push us up?

Funny that we're STILL the only 2 here...
but that's great too!
:)

[tapioca]

Guess you bailed. I'm still all in. I hope to hold
through the summer and beyond.. take care.

[tapioca]

Hey you out there?? How 'bout this stock! Still holding...

[tapioca]

Amazing, even after a downgrade, which seemed to be
planned to knock the price down for someone to pick up
cheaper shares, it never dipped below 5, and it bounced
back up to 5.50 range. They must be very confident with
quarterly coming up on March 12, to announce the date
a month in advance. Still holding.

[tapioca]

It was downgraded to "neutral" by Meryl Lynch
last week which brought it down. I'm hoping it stays above 5. Hit a low
of 5.12 today, and hope it sits for a bit here, until they come
out with some good news. I'm still all in.

[diannedawn]

Looks like they're trying to shake people out today...
I wonder if they'll drop it all the way to the 4's?
Maybe bounce it around 4.60?
Pretty low volume...maybe I'll just hold and try to free up cash to buy more...

I always say; I'd rather average UP than DOWN!!!
:)

[tapioca]

Hopefully, the company does have cash also. Nice recovery today.

[diannedawn]

Looks like the Q will come in mid May...
Maybe there will be something in that to propel us to the next level?

[tapioca]

Ouch! big correction here.

[tapioca]

Yea, just a two person party right now, which
is fine with me too.
Seems when a wave of profit taking comes through
it just bounces right back, so it is looking very healthy.
Another good piece of news may send it above 6, but
we need to break through the 70's.. we shall see.
I haven't sold a share yet either.

[diannedawn]

I'm still here and still in
Just been distracted with other drama lately
LoL
I won't sell unless it starts falling
So far it's holding up pretty well!
Especially with all the gyrations in the market...
Who knows? Maybe we will see that 9
:)
I'm perfectly happy to not have the "kaboom" crowd here
I really hate that crap...

[tapioca]

Guess I'm just talking to myself here!
