Quit telling people not to panic!!
The key support was broken at .175 and the next support is .142 and if that is broken then your looking at .136
If you have a substantial gain, take your gain and buy in lower and you can buy more shares for the next run. Don't be stupid.
After hours does not exist..
Well the juevos are pretty big but...
I kinda like having money in my portfolio.... It's funny how people think this thing is going to run to $1.00 before ever retracing. I mean come on man.
Same here on the retrace
I'm a little leery to play today if this has a big gap up. Things tend to go wrong when that happens and we have no idea how many shares were front loaded for the pump by money runners and the other group. They could dump 5MM shares and kill this in a heartbeat.
A real life true story (Why I take profit)
I have only blown up my account once. I was invested in PLUG and I had bought about $6k worth when the price was pretty damn low. Anyhow, I was so excited about the future of PLUG and the stock was blazing along at break neck speed and every day I was more and more excited. I watch a few days where my portfolio was up 20k a day and watched as it hit it's 11.72 high. Anyhow once it hit the high I was up about 98k and then the hit piece came out calling PLUG a casino stock and the price started going down. I watched it go down that day by almost 50% and kept telling myself that at any moment it will go back up. Well I lost almost 45k that day by "Holding my shares". I could have sold at $11.00 and bought back in later at $5.00 and doubled my share count. I lost that day almost what I make in a year at work on a 9-5 job. Now does it make sense?
I'm talking in the next week. Yes I believe the stock will be upwards of $20.00 within a couple years and maybe sooner.
Who's pumping?
I have not said this is going to $10.00 or something stupid like others. I like the stock and have said as much but I believe in taking profits and not watching a stock drop. I also plan on returning if and when it does and am not ashamed of that. Too many immature folks on here betting on a zillion dollar return and holding way past the time they should.
HOLD YOUR SHARES... DON'T GIVE AWAY YOUR SHARES... HOLD UNTIL DEATH... Whatever
Shhhhh Don't tell anyone you sold!!
I got lambasted on yahoo boards for admitting I sold my position and would buy back in if things looked good. Said I should not ever admit to making a profit. What a joke.... Guess I should just hold until it corrects tomorrow and goes back to .14 and let someone else have the money.
Needs to pass .175 for uptrend to continue... Breakout from high tight flag.
STONG ASK PRICE IN PM
NM
SolarCity trades at 28X sales!!
I hope we can get away with that. If we can do revenue of 55 million per year we could trade at $5.00 and be at 27X sales.
OMG please don't tell me you were a CERP investor!! BWAHAHAAAAAAA
Good close above .158 resistance. Should test .175 tomorrow or Wednesday.
High Tight Flag breakout is 17.5
Price point is .235 for a stop.
If we can close above 15.8 it's clear sailing to 17.5 for our next resistance spot. Hopefully some news of a new contract, acquisition or panel MFG soon.
I'm sitting at my real job
Watching my brokerage account grow. Another 3 months before I quit my job and trade full time... Right after my Mexico Vacation.
Nice low volume upswing!!
Let's keep it like that until further news comes out.
Beautiful High Tight Flag
And it is flying proudly!!! Any positive news and this thing is going to go ape shit.
Looking at the numbers
With the winery contract of 3 mega watts of solar we will have huge quarters in the 3rd and 4th quarter. Commercial costs per watt of installed solar is currently running around $4.00 per watt of and 3 mega watts equals 3 million watts for a total of 12 million dollars. I'm sure part of this will be in the 3rd during install and the rest during the 4th since they calculate the completion date in November. Including the backlog of 10 million reported in May, this should be huge!! I'm going out on a limb here and going to say that they have over 100% increase in revenue and will say around 17MM - 20MM which would be 8MM from backlog (I'm sure some was installed in the 2nd), 6MM from winery and an additional 5 from new residential/commercial/agricultural during the 3rd quarter. We should have 10-20MM backlog in the end of the 3rd. HUGE HUGE HUGE!!! I have 150k now and I'm adding more on any dips.
PLUG was .12 a share nimrod!!
I should know, I invested heavily in it and already got paid. PLUG should have been removed from the NASDAQ since it traded below a dollar for almost a year.
Don't get your panties in a wad... Just trying to be helpful.
PLUG 5 posts today SLTD 29
Who has the juice now? Crazy that such a little solar company can garner so much attention. We are officially on the map.
That would be just like Marsh and PLUG.
Marsh puts out the PR stating that it hand finalized a large deal with Wal Mart but did not mention the size and the stock took off. Then to put icing on the cake, he held a CC and told everyone how many they ordered and it doubled again...
3rd and 4th quarter should be huge!!

Looks like the making of a high tight flag
No tapering as you would see in a pendant, at least not yet. Very bullish signal on any level right now.
High tight flag forming on SLTD
If the bulls can stay in charge and offset any shares being dumped while inching this higher this could be a great trading signal to get in while the price is good.
.142 BID .143 ASK
We open where we were at the close or higher!
Who cares if Nelson sold all his shares?
It was 99,000 worth at .11 big whoop! He was given the shares for performance milestones and was free to do what he wants with them..
When did money runner start promotion?
Anyone get the original newsletter?
Have you thought that maybe this is his compensation? No sales since April and maybe because SUN can pay his salary.
Hope they grow PPS organically!!
Like PLUG did without a R/S
Solar industry rebalanced by pressure on China

The Little Solar Company that Could
I harken back to the days of my youth when my mother would read to me the story of “The Little Engine that Could”. If he believed in hhimself , he could accomplish whatever feat that was set before him. “I think I can” “I think I can” “I think I can”.
Solar3D is that little engine in my mind today, and to be truthful, I have not been so excited about the possible future of one stock and one company in quite some time. I typically do not invest too much in the small cap arena, unless I happen upon something transformative to the way we currently do things… but solar3D happens to be one of those stocks and companies I cannot ignore.
Solar3D for all intense purposes is a developmental stage company who is on the brink of no longer being considered developmental. Just recently, they completed the 3rd generation prototype of their 3D solar cell and are ready to take the next phase in finding a partner for manufacturing and marketing of the new design.
Dr. Changwan Son, Solar3D's Director of Technology, commented, "We are pleased to have completed our next prototype. We are very encouraged by our lab results and have concluded that it is time to prepare to take the next step toward commercialization by working with a manufacturer partner."
Once a manufacturer has been selected and partnered with, the next phase will be to create a working solar panel for field testing and then manufacturing and marketing of the 3D panels to the overall market.
Solar3D cell design uses principles gleaned from fiber optics in that it uses design features that allow it to collect light energy at a higher rate of absorbency then current 2D solar cells do. Current cells have not changed much over the last two decades, and for them to be econimocally feasable for the average homeowner or business, they must be manufactured with a lower cost per KW. The 3D panels from solar3D do exactly that. In trial runs, they have proven to be almost twice as efficient in collecting the suns rays from many different angles, which would prove beneficial in both morning, evening and during the different seasons of the year when the sun is not directly overhead.
Fundamentals are impressive
Solar3D just recently acquired SUNworks solar in January of 2014 and has just recently released their full 2nd quarter results with SUN factored into their revenue stream. SUNworks sales grew by 600% from the previous quarter with revenues of $7.5 million dollars resulting in profits of over $762,000. This type of growth is very exciting to see from a small company with asperations to be the fastest growing and most profitable solar company in the sector.
"We are thrilled with our second quarter results, which have surpassed our initial expectations," said Jim Nelson, CEO of Solar3D. "SUNworks' revenue and profit margins are outstanding — with sales for the quarter approaching the sales level of all of 2013, and profit already exceeding the previous year. Our future looks brighter than ever."
Conclusion
Indeed, this type of growth could very well put solar3D on the radar of many investors in the near future. If they are able to maintain their growth stategy, and keep costs under control they could be in store for a very good end to 2014 and have a bright future beyond. This of course is only factoring in the SUNworks portion of their business model and does not take into consideration the manufacturing and marketing of 3D solar panels. Both of those two combined could put solar3D into a place that no other solar company could compete with.
I tried to submit this to SA but did not meet their price/market cap requirements. Hate for it to go to waste. Comments would be greatly appreciated since this would have been my first SA article.
You have no idea in the world what you are talking about "day trading makes you more then investing" your full of it. You think buffet is a day trader? He is an investor and when you have his net worth, come see me and tell me about it. Now run along.
I sold PLUG at .54 50k shares and ended up buying back @ 1.75 do you think i wished i would have just held them? You should know the answer. Sometimes it's better to buy and ignore.
REMEMBER WHEN?
DO you remember when you said to yourself "Darn, I wish I would have known about PLUG when the PPS was a measely .12 cents and BLDP was as low as .60 cents"? Well, here is your golden opportunity yet again. Solar3D (STLD) is tradin at .10 cents per share and has just completed it's 3D solar cell and is now looking for a MFG partner. They already have a profitable solar business who is up 600% second qtr from 1st qtr. I just bought 100,000 shares today and plan on adding more on the dips.
P.S Please do not hate on me for telling you about a good stock with huge upside. We are all here for $$$
