Thanks , the best to you as well. i like your style thought i would share my plays as well.
I would like to thank you for posting your picks and I wish you much success in your trades.
RIMM short 28 .50
AMZN shorted 14.35
QLGC looks broken now, will add on any pop short should be good for 5 points
might be good for a couple, i'll be hitting it short soon, good luck to you
should see a rampant cover rally into the close especially on the larger short positions
Going to cover my short in RIMM now for a loss and do the unthinkable. I am going long.
Shorted QLGC 31, and SPWX at 11.20
Shorted RIMM at 25 and FNSR at 11.
Closing out the SONS short at 19 and some change.
I close out this short yesterday at 18.10. I could not post here yesterday.
I made some mistakes with the CYGN short.
1. I did not check to see if the stock had a gap in it.http://www.bigcharts.com/quickchart/quickchart.asp?symb=cygn&sid=0&o_symb=cygn&freq=1&am...
2. I did not check to see if the stock was squashed. Also, I did not look to pick up long term puts in this stock. I think I am making the same mistake with the PRGN short.
Buy to cover at 6.18.
Buy to cover 16 1/16. This site is slow.
Shorted ITWO at 16 15/16.
Covered around 18.50. I ready to go to the beach. :)
Shorted OPWV for a 19.80 average. I might have shorted this stock too quick.
Closed out CFLO AT 5 5/8.
Shorted CFLO at 6.0
My stop loss on CYGN was taken out this morning.
Close out my TMTA short at 19. I broke ome of my rules about adding to a losing trade and this time it work. :)
Move my stop loss on CYGN. This stock is haunted.
Short sell TMTA at 20.25.
I am going to add some stocks to my long term paper trading account.
LLL 75 oct 75 puts at 9.
WMT a straight short at 47.
I sold my CCL puts for a nice paper profit (80% gain). I made a typo in the stock MER. I should have typed MRK.
A complete manipulative operation on the long side consists of three parts: 1 Accumulation 2 marking up and 3 distribution. In the case of a short operation the distribution comes first, then the mark down and the accummulation. Also, the manipulator must work with a large block of stock or the deal wil not be worth his time or risk.
Buying to cover RHAT at 6 1/32.
Shorted RHAT AT 7. I am hoping to add to this short later.
GSPN is making my blond hair stand up on my head. I have coverd most of my short below 22 1/2. GSPN has bounced off of 22 3/8 pretty hard. If I have to cover the rest for a small loss today, I will do so.
Shorted CYBN this morning at 6-6.5. Hopefully, I will cover this short in a couple of days
I am going to short GSPN at 22 11/16 for a day trade. I will spend some time on working with long shorts this weekend.
Please keep posting, I'm reading it Shannon... you're trying to develop a way to short, and use this board as your notebook, right? I appreciate your effort.

Three main types of volume-activity I need to test to see if they are right.
1.Increasing volume during an advance, with the intervening pauses or setbacks occurring on light volume. Ths is indicative of the underlying demand's being greater than the supply, and favors a resumption of the advance.
2. Increaded volume at the top of a rally, or of an advance, lasting for some time, with no appreciable gain in prices- an active churing of stock transactions without progress. This is indicative of a turning-point.
3. A"tired or strugling, advance when stocks creep upward on light volume and "die" at the top. This indicates a lack of demand(few buying-orders); and, selling orders likewise are light this action frequently marks a rounding-over turn which may be followed by increased volume on the down side. These struggling trends are subject t sudden reversals, particularly when they have endured for several days.
I took long term shorts in BA 56 MER 72 CCL 28 KO 47 using long term puts today. Let's see how the paper trading goes.
PD was downgraded today by CSFB.From hold to sell.
PD=Phelps Dodge Corp.
Going to spend some time researching the following stocks for long term puts. http://stockcharts.com/def/servlet/SC.scan?s=TSASAA[s0,20,v_gt_80000]![YB,0,T,1,3_EQ_1]
A couple signs on Distributiion of stocks by the major broker houses I need to test to see if they are right.
1.Stocks that are getting distibuted are fast movers up and down on large volume.
2. Increase in earnings.
3. The stock is reporting high growth numbers.
4. Special privileges to stockholders, which really is the bait that catches the sucker and in the end causes a big loss.
Didn't seem like SUNW followed nasdq like rest of tech's.Down only 3/8 for the day.
Nice found alexed... been making a killing by shorting all the daytrader's delight big board stocks...
Good to have a short account, the margin is not as scary as some might think...
