There has also been some good...
articles and live news feeds already coming out of Vegas starting yesterday. May have to get out there later in the week just to see all of the new gadgets and new things tech at CES.
Mostly video (and bandwidth) and mobile computing related stories so far - IPTV, etc.
Yes, and getting more interesting...
right now, this morning. After Cramer's speculative pick of the year Friday night, and especially the important article he just posted this morning titled "Level 3 Will Ride Virtuous Cycle".
Good Trading!
This could very well be...
a big story not that long from now (relatively speaking) so I've been watching and waiting.
However, the action was heating up Friday morning so had to purchase some shares. And I was really planning on waiting on this stock for awhile longer.
I usually want stronger fundamentals, or should I say much less debt, but, sometimes, you just have to go with the flow.
GL.
I had it on also...
just in the background, so I had to check the brief recap they post on RM.
It says he said it should go to $240 a share.
GL.
That said..
that was a really nice move off the 50sma, regardless of the catalyst. The volume turned out very strong.
So, now the dilemma - when to pick up some shares. Will have to watch the market along with this issue.
Also, besides watching the market, watch that ICE as well as some other market leaders for direction, and am also monitoring ISE, certain brokers, etc regarding some exchange plays.
I was lucky I had a position, and since I was out most of the day yesterday, I offered out some shares in the morning. Most of it got taken by the end of the day, so now will have to watch the market next week, and maybe offer out a little more if the buying frenzy continues. And then try to wait patiently for it to come back in. I will definitely reload at the right time.
GL & GT.
I did get his latest book...
and agree, good to hear LKOZ.
And for anyone else, as Cramer mentions and writes, he hates the buying surge beginning AH's after his recommendations, he implores everyone to wait and buy on weakness and not get taken to the cleaners, and has mentioned that he also sometimes tries to time his recommendations on pullbacks.
If not, and especially if you use market orders immediately after during AH's to chase his picks as Cramer chastises, he will often be right saying you will likely feel pain within days.
GL & GT.
Hey LKOZ, is that your boat?
The Big Board board.
To those of you who missed it, Cramer listed this his growth stock of the year last night. Hopefully, some of you have followed this issue or have accumulated shares before yesterday or in one of the other exchange stocks (or many of them!).
I'll try to post more on this later when I find some time.
Good luck and good trading.
Good article in IBD...
today on APKT.
Also, check out CSCO's PR yesterday on the Ironport.com announcement. IBD has anonther article on this acquisition on page A4. Very interesting...
GL & GT.
As I started writing this...
after 11 am EST, the Nasdaq is up 14, the Dow and S&P are down.
Intel up almost 4%, BRCM up 2%, even QCOM is up 3% today, and GOOG testing yesterday's high. Watching CSCO and some others this morning.
This kind of action is what you want to see for this market to ultimately go higher. The question is, will it hold today? And then can certain leading stocks start breaking through some resistance levels and do we start getting some real buying volume? Or do we have some more wild swings in store like yesterday.
Let's see how it closes today and this week and where the volume finishes, to see if it can hold. This market may need a little more time.
GL & GT.
Hmmm, why is this board so...
quiet?
Interesting news today on CSCO's reported fifth largest acquisition ever.
Checkout Ironport.com for more info.
And: http://today.reuters.com/news/articlenews.aspx?type=&storyid=2007-01-04T101856Z_01_N04449434_RTR...
And the stock stays at the high of it's range.
GL & GT.
This move and interest...
started with Cramer, but it is not ending there. You have the telecom equipment group and other related groups and stocks getting some interest and heating up a little. Again, I don't think these guys should really be classified as such, but, that's how people are defining them, for now.
I sold into the pop Tuesday after Cramer's piece and traded yesterday because the funds and other institutions that can move a stock don't buy like that - people watching the show do. However, I will likely get back in sooner rather than later due to the other related interest, because the funds and other institutions that can move a stock buy when related groups and stocks start getting interest and heating up.
Watch the market and other radar screens these other buyers are watching.
GL & GT.
Yes, he did a good piece...
on Friday. I caught the late version after hearing him mention it earlier.
However, I'm selling my remaining shares into the strength this morning, even though his influence on stocks is growing. Have to, until this market starts back up. And until the general trading patterns change (something to watch for if this market really takes off next year, esp with more anticipation later of a rate cut).
Sidebar - APKT was on top of IBD's Stocks on the Move screen this morning - which will bring more attention to it today and in the coming week(s) - since this week will probably be slow with the holidays. But, I still want to see more volume on a move like this even during a slow trading week.
Since recent IPO's are sometimes harder to trade, will have to follow this more closely as to when to reload and get back in.
One more thing, I think this is tied to more than just VoIP as Cramer mentioned. And I'm surprised he didn't mention more - like video, especially since on almost every other related recommendation he talks a little about growing video traffic and the future demand related to more video.
Take CSCO - yes, they have their recent iPhone news (ahead of the anticipated AAPL news). But, also think about CSCO's new slogan and their new video conferencing plans (TelePresence), that's a plus and a concern - as they have to somehow incorporate the SBC functions themselves or acquire somebody. Think video telephony (and related aspects) across many devices. I'm also thinking about different uses for interactive IPTV, VoD, etc. as well as related network and security issues - longer-term ideas as more bandwidth problems are solved down the road. Ideas tied to APKT as well.
GL & GT.
It's starting off pretty slow...
today. Seems many participants are already out - finishing up shopping or traveling (or stuck in the snow).
Most everything is still getting sold this week, like RIMM this morning. But, it's mostly light, on low volume, so am waiting for a bounce. Will have to see how the markets finish out through next week. I'm quickly losing interest this morning.
Happy Holidays!
Who makes the chips...
for APKT boxes, and other similar network / communications gear makers?
There's a couple, but one I started buying yesterday.
Do a little DD and you'll find them. I think the time is getting closer for these to finally start as well. Time to start thinking about scaling in.
GL & GT.
Hey Fish...
Most people, be it traders or in other fields still work for a living!
But, I know what you are saying!
Glad you got the book.
Also, I don't rely on boards for tips and mainly read them to gauge emotion of different groups, if I spend much time at all. Your time is better spent in other ways, like developing your own trading style and rules and then studying and research. The key there is staying in the game long enough at the beginning, so you can develop your style. Those books mentioned will help in that regard.
You have a bull market right now, and not sure when you started actively trading, but, things may be a little more forgiving currently (again depending on your style). The lure of trading is a fascinating phenomenon on it's own, not to mention hearing about those very top bonuses at GS.
GL & GT.
p.s. I ordered some Christmas books on Amazon on Friday, and had a similar experience. And on that note, I grow more frustrated week by week with the terribly slow page loads on Yahoo! - especially for photos, videos, maps, etc. Thinking may have to change my default browser home page - to Google as it's always faster (and it's been on Yahoo! since what '97?). I also use Craigslist a lot now. Sadly, Yahoo! seems to keep falling further behind and/or not executing.
However, the volume started falling off...
right after I posted that previous message, not only on CSCO but on many other issues too. Big difference compared to how GE acted today.
Will have to see how CSCO and the markets begin next week, our last full week until the holidays.
Time to start the weekend and start that Chirstmas shopping.
GT.
Look at that buying pressure...
on CSCO this morning, right through that 27.5 strike.
Same as what happened yesterday with a bunch of other big names in this market. Cramer wrote about some of the names and action yesterday, i.e. AXP, etc.
It's a bull market.
No problem Fish...
I'm glad you sound open to looking up Carter's book. It's sometimes hard to offer suggestions without sounding condescending. The only other thing I would offer regarding your reply, is I like to lean more conservative with an IRA, more towards the blue chip value issues.
If you find his book helpful, here are some others for later - all great reads with invaluable information on the markets (not in any particular order):
How to Make Money in Stocks, by Bill O'Neil (also check out all of his other books, get an IBD subscription, and Daily Graphs too).
Tools and Tactics for the Master Trader, by Oliver Velez & Greg Capra (check out their recommended reading list in their book too).
Any and all books by Fontanills (to get you thinking about options while also learning more about stocks).
The Master Swing Trader, Farley
Option Volatility & Pricing, Natenberg
Real Money, Cramer
How I Made $2,000,000 in the Stock Market, Darvas
Reminiscences of a Stock Operator, LeFevre
Any book you like on TA (that is right for your level and easy to understand for you - some are pretty dry and/or rely on a good prior understanding),
a good starter is "Getting Started in Technical Analysis", Schwager.
To see what really goes on behind the curtains, check out:
Cramer's "Confessions of a Street Addict"
and then Dan Reingold's "Confessions of a Wall Street Analyst"
and last but not least "The Smartest Guys in the Room" (about the Enron debacle).
These are just a few favorites of mine. They will lead you onto many others if you're interested.
There is a lot of other info online like you mentioned, and in the form of real-time trading rooms, sites, newsletters, seminars, etc. - some that are linked with some of the people above.
GL & GT.
The Human Network...
Cisco's new ad campaign. This and all they are doing is discussed in IBD today, page A4.
Separate, Cramer's article " 'Tis the Season to Keep Buying Tech" this morning.
GL & GT.
Prudential and Time Warner...
is what Cramer talks about today in his piece titled "Cable Will Keep Running".
Worth noting as he mentions TWX, CMCSA, VZ, T, the business space, and Prudential's recommendation.
GL & GT.
Not sure where you are at...
but, those first 2 to 5 trading years are the toughest, and everybody has to go through them in this game. And most everybody goes through many trades like what you described. But, if/when you have a substantial drawdown hanging over your head, that's when it really helps to have some drawdown rules. They help keep you in the game.
Otherwise, you can get yourself into what others have called "the revenge trade". Those don't usually lead to gains, not when that bitterness creeps in.
It sounds like you're doing well with it, notwithstanding. It can help clear your emotions by doing what you did (exiting), and those strong emotions never help. If it bounces back now without you, just take the lesson from it for the next time.
It's still a bull market, but, it still requires caution.
Good trading to you!
Hey Fish...
sorry to hear about NMX. Unfortunately a lot of people right now are left in a position similar to what you described, even though it is still the best IPO performer from it's price range for 2006 - probably because of it and all the hype it got.
Heelys did well last week too, but only 7th best opening performer for the year. APKT is still number three.
IPO's do require some extra attention to trade, and I often wait awhile, but, have been in APKT, DIVX, and a couple of others this year.
If you are kinda bitter about NMX, and I'm not sure what percentage loss you are talking, I'd highly recommend John Carter's book, Mastering the Trade (if you haven't read it yet). He talks about trading rules, business plans, and specifically drawdown (and profit) rules every serious trader should have outlined.
I've found his book to be tremendously helpful to my trading and investing.
Separately, Bill O'Neil's advice on IPO's hasn't changed much over the years from his different editions of "How To Make Money in Stocks".
GL & GT.
Watch for this...
one to go. You have AKAM going, and FFIV starting up today, wait for CSCO, and then be ready for this to follow.
Just watch your buy point and volume and the market when it's ready.
GL & GT and have a good weekend.
Nice posts LVLT...
Good info and links you are providing.
Best of luck with your position. I don't own it yet, but, have been keeping an eye on it for awhile. I'll have to make this a place to check in on too.
GL & GT.
About APKT's industry group...
When I previously noted that they could be classified in a different industry group by IBD, there are positives and negatives about that. The negatives are - it is placed in a poorly performing group (133 out of 197) and a lot of leading funds won't even venture looking at it too seriously at first because of it. There would be a whole lot more interest right now for APKT if it was in with the Internet Network Solutions group and a whole lot more buying pressure and sponsorship automatically because of it.
The positive is it does confuse people - this group placement, making funds and other investors much more hesitant, at first, to buy. It helps cool this issue down, even though it came out of the gate fast, gives it a chance to find it's level and show it's real character and strength and let some long-term big holders slowly accumulate shares (thereby also giving lots of investors the time to do some DD and buying of their own if appropriate). That type of action for awhile and those types of holders will ultimately make it a better long-term prospect when this area in the communications industry really starts to take effect and should they, in fact, lead it. Just remember, sometimes these things develop a little slower than anticipated (it seems this could be part of their forecast).
And on another note regarding the previous post (besides mentioning real earnings), LVLT has 20x the number of shares as a small cap like APKT - what's easier to move? Also, there are constantly better compression technology improvements (i.e. DIVX - I'm thinking the video side of things), there will have to be even more changes for the growing mobile field (again video and smaller screens and less data needed), etc. Not that "pipes" is the only thing LVLT has going for it. Do your DD...
GL & GT.
Cramer has been on...
a hot streak for awhile now, with this market. Is LVLT a good pick? Yes and no, but, the key word right now is "speculative".
I do like it. The company I used to work with did work for LVLT back in the '90's. But, I probably would not pick a LVLT over some other small-cap issues out there even as a "speculative" play of the year for 2007. Not when they still don't have any earnings, only debt servicing, and according to Crowe's comments, will be that way for another 4 or 5 quarters.
I mean, there are just so many other related plays even within or related to this network convergence theme right now, with solid earnings.
Yes, by the look of the chart and with the industry, economic, and market trends going on right now, it probably keeps going higher here. And they are an integral and big part of the all-things-network-related-bull-market theory I also believe. They are a network of networks. So, yes, I will likely consider buying some in the future, but just not at this time.
Just look at the data shown on IBD's Daily Graphs, and you don't have to do much digging beyond that. There are much better solid (not speculative) picks out there right now, one's with real, accelerating earnings in growing fields.
That said, so often, you read some commentary, or blog, etc. with some stated position, but, you never really get the full perspective of where anybody is coming from - not without a 15 to 20-page report. So, I must add, for some people, who are heavily exposed in other sectors like retail, biotech, oil, banks, transporation, chemicals, etc. sure, maybe a speculation play like this fits in perfect for them. But, if you are already heavily exposed in tech, and especially in this network stuff, like I am, then it makes sense to me to stay with the proven leaders, while keeping an eye on this one. Then in several more quarters when the turnaround is more clear, you can pay up and buy into it then.
Cramer also talked about APKT when a caller asked about it. Is CSCO the better play? Can't argue with that at all - the funds are buying it. But, I'd still recommend doing some more digging into APKT.
Also, check out: http://www.level3partners.com/index.php?page=site/build_it_yourself&nav_id=abee442c701b3c3641d41...
GL & GT.
What about the funds?...
What are most of them doing now?
There was a lot of good info in IBD yesterday in Section A about just that. And there's more out there.
And how about a little anecdotal analysis. If I remember correctly, Cody on RM yesterday was saying how upset he was that he missed this Monday's rally, and that he sold some of his CSCO calls the week prior. Hmmm, emotion cropping up. He's going to stick to his game plan for closing out the year, and protecting his profits, which is good. But, remember, it sounds like he is ahead of the performance curve.
Most funds and many hedge funds are underperforming at this time (and some still damaged from last summer). I think many have to buy more of the big names right now. And what about their emotions? Especially those damaged and/or with redemptions.
Expect some more volatility these remaining weeks, from that pressured buying and from some forced and protective selling (as well as pressured shorting from some hurtin' bears), but, I am leaning we still go out strong this year. And January should start out strong too.
GL & GT.
Good article in IBD...
in today's paper (and posted on 12/1/06 online) titled "Life in the Web's Fast Lane", see page A8.
Talks about IBD's best performing tech group this year, the Internet Network Solutions group.
The other article by Deagon also on that page is good too.
See also the other related story links online for more ideas.
GL & GT.
A little caution...
still on names like FFIV, even though I like it. Because of the deep pullback this summer ($74 to $40). If I buy some, it will be with tight stops and also greatly depending on market performance - I'd really want to see some of the tech leaders/sectors perform well if/when we get this break(out).
GL & GT.
Some stocks to watch...
I like FFIV right here, but again, is it better to wait for a little better entry later this week, or is it going to go early? That's the question. Watch it close.
I like other things internet network related.
Gotta go, things heating up...
Watching this tape...
this morning. I like that S&P Smallcap 600 chart, it's about ready to go. I like the Russell too, but forming a high pause here.
The equity markets look ever closer to go - to finish out the year on a charge.
The million dollar question is whether we do get a pullback/shakeout later this week, or if enough big buyers step in early right here.
GL & GT.
Cleaning out the last of...
my various Dec calls, and starting buying further out MSFT calls yesterday. Wasn't sure how much more it was going to come in. Will see how today goes whether to continue or wait.
And, speaking of the communications and different networks convergence including cable and media, Cramer mentioned TWX yesterday. They are one more name in the space I think is really important right now.

Did some buying this morning...
and will be looking to add more on any weakness down to levels I like even better in a few names.
Although I usually prefer the small to midcaps, have been thinking more about some other mega-caps like AAPL, CSCO, MSFT - all bigger plays in the network stuff.
Still liking and trading the first two, and thinking about buying some MSFT if it trades deeper between it's 20 and 40 ema. Haven't owned it in years, but, think it's about time again. Will wait patiently to see if it pulls back a little more.
Come on in a little more...
That's what I'm hoping for on a few stocks, like NYX, etc.
I'll start buying some of that back around $98 if I get the chance & depending on the market. Maybe we'll get some other and better gifts too.
GL & GT.
It's all about the networks...
Networks of all kinds, that's what this continuing bull market might be based on.
Communication networks, is a better description, but that needs more clarification, especially where APKT is involved.
Telecom & IP communication networks - these are switching from the PSTN circuit based to IP. And, cable and bundled networks - several good plays here, too bad others like Cox went private. And then the convergence of voice (land & mobile), internet (data), media (cable & independent video). Think of all of the money being spent and look at all the stocks in this space and overlapping into this space.
Navigating through all this new networked content (the internet and these other networks now) - GOOG, BIDU, and others.
Social networks (Monetizing & Advertising) - Google is at the forefront of this.
Financial Networks - how about all of the exchange stocks (not to mention the changes, M & A's, and growth of all of the ECN's (Electronic Communication Networks) and the companies behind them).
Local Community Networks - Again, GOOG, and a range of companies from RIMM to GRMN that will help play a part eventually.
The other physical Community Networks - isn't this really what Starbucks is about (not the stores, but the brand, the people - you are the community network there).
AAPL - enabling access to all sorts of networks including there own (and should get even better early next year).
YHOO, TZOO, KNOT, TRAD, OXPS, TSCM, etc. - networks.
Gaming - networks more and more.
And I like those new commercials with the tagline "It's the Network" They (VZ and/or their ad firm) get it.
I know, a little esoteric, but, hopefully you get the message. There's a lot more to this simple list and a lot more stocks too.
GL & GT.
How much do you pay per month...
for communications?
Think about it, across all infrastructure, for access to networks such as APKT can and/or already has SBC's installed between borders/connection points between these networks.
Well, we have a land phone line (local & long distance carriers), DSL (with AT&T), satelite, internet fax, two cell phone accounts (more phones), Wi-Fi pc account, and various email access accounts (i.e. Earthlink, etc. from previous ISP accounts and web hosting account). For trading I'm looking into options for getting a second backup internet connection (we used to have cable before we moved out to the country). I confess, no Blackberry or VoIP for me, yet.
In the mid-nineties, I paid on average $40-$50 per month for a phone and a second fax line (held off on cable for a long time).
Now we pay approx $300 per month (low end range) for all of the above. And as all of these networks as well as all of the coming new interactive communication networks (think what's coming out in the near future, i.e. w/ AAPL, etc.) migrate and converge to IP based networks, do you think these type of costs will increase for most consumers? I do.
And where does a lot of this money go, ultimately? To upgrade and build new communication infrastructure especially if critical communications start to shift from PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Networks) and wireless services to IP networks. And a lot of this capital will find its way to companies delivering new valuable products for this convergence and shift, like APKT and it's competitors if/when that shift really starts to take effect.
Do you think CSCO (as well as some other big fish) is interested in all this? You should.
That said, even though it's a different business model and environment, look at what newcomer Google did with Yahoo and others in its field.
Anyone interested in any of this should talk to people they know in the industry, to hear what's going on behind the scenes. Or, you can monitor the stocks of everyone involved in this work and different industry groups and sectors to also get a feel for what's going on behind the scenes.
GL & GT.
p.s. Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving.
With CSCO & JNPR just ramping...
You have to expect more moves like today.
Interesting things about this issue. IBD has APKT in the Telecom equipment industry group (ranked very low). Whereas many of their competitors (except for Sonus) are listed in the Computer Networking group (ranked no. 3 out of 197).
And the major portion of their 80% gross margins actually comes from licensing their secret software used in their own boxes. What software group could come close to describing them?... Look at the sub-sectors to work on that one (i.e. security, enterprise, etc).
But, what about the Internet Networking solutions group - I actually think they could belong in there. Look who else is in that group and what they do. And the carriers (their customers) seem to prefer the SBC's separate from the routing equipment, etc. I think of APKT more of a cross between FFIV and/or an AKAM and a CSCO (w/ a twist) if I had to quickly describe them and catagorize the company into a group.
It's hard to place these guys, I like it. That confuses people. And I think having them listed in the telecom equipment group adds to the confusion. I like that too.
I also like what I've been reading. It's just that forecast...
I'll try to post some links before early next week.
Happy Thanksgiving.
Rolling, Rolling, Rolling...
A couple of good articles on basic/general options strategies on Real Money.
I noticed Cody wrote a piece yesterday about rolling up his call options and some basic strategies behind this.
I've been doing the same, however, I've been rolling out some of my calls which I started buying in September and which haven't moved significantly yet, but are now ATM - various Dec, and a couple Jan. Now is the time to start to plan as time decay starts accelerating (and if you set time stops).
Most of my other Dec calls I've already sold on spikes and have or plan to reload later with new ones further out and again slightly OTM if/when the stocks pull back. I'm still expecting further runs in the stocks I've been trading at least through the spring and on some even longer.
And just selling off some Dec GOOG and FMD calls today on the pops cause I've got a little too much leverage right now.
The other article posted today was titled "Options on Takeovers" by Steve Smith. Good points to consider and keep in the back of your mind given this market environment and if you are purchasing options right now on less liquid and less expensive stocks, ones that could be candidates for takeover. Even if there is a remote chance, you need to anticipate buyout ranges and keep your options closer to at-the-money or at least within your approximate buyout ranges, so if you do wake up one morning and hear the news, your don't find your OTM options worthless. I also adjust my timeframes shorter so less time premium is at risk. Even sometimes on larger names I do this, like MRVL last month when I was buying calls, with the rumors floating around (although I did buy a handful of LEAPS too).
Roll 'em up - closing your existing position and then opening a new position with the same expiration but a higher strike price.
Roll 'em down - same as above but at a lower strike price.
Roll 'em out - keep your position at the same stike price but roll out the expiration further.
Rawhide.
I was just checking...
to see how long these previous links were good for, and the link in the referenced post is now to a different (revised) article. Maybe the guy's editor saw some of the same mis-prints and/or typos I saw and also had him change the title.
I guess from now on, I should learn how to paste a screen shot when I want to reference something on this board esp regarding news articles.

Hope anybody reading got in on some FMD yesterday (from that IBD screen).
