OK, ARYX, your gap is filled. Shall we try that again? Please?
Looks like ARYX is breaking the pinch today. PPO crossing. Yippee!
Should see some volume pour in as alerts hit the high-tech traders. hehe.

ARYX = morning gapper. Pinch pops today
I was a bit leery of PDGE yesterday when it bounced. It seems we've seen a couple fake breakouts lately. I mean, sure, it's nice to make money on those too, but I'm always worried of a sudden drop. Think HLXW or TGGI where it jumps up a big percentage, then drops right back down because the chart wasn't ready. Looking at PDGE, it seems the MACD and PPO have a long way to go before the "big bang". Maybe the hype can force this thing out of the pinch. I'll keep watching and jump in if it doesn't come crashing back down after this morning's action.

Maybe I should plan for an early breakout attempt on these tight pinchers? Plan to buy in early, sell the breakout attempt, then buy again for the later breakout?
Thanks Cytis! I've never looked on a 60-min chart for a pincher before. But obviously, it works. hehe
Yeah, I can see your chart. March 2nd? Is that where you see a pinch in the PPO / ADX ? I guess I tend to see the more dramatic, obvious stuff. hehe
Nice play today. And yeah, ARYX should pop tomorrow with a PPO crossover. NVLT has some time too-- green day today helps.
Looking at your chart, but still...PPO and ADX parallel (never pinched). PPO way positive. Got a great bounce off the 50-day MA support. Still, nice profit today. Congrats
I'm used to looking at "pinchers" more along the lines of the oversold, bottom bouncers. Clinical example:
http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=ARYX&p=D&yr=0&mn=3&dy=0&id=p68963334058
Check out the PPO / ADX on that one, and the RSI.
Am I missing something? I don't see a WDRP pinch on the chart. RSI was not oversold. PPO and ADX are running parallel (not pinching). Sitting on the 50-day MA for support (rather than sitting well below, like most pinchers). Looks like a bullish stock, but a pincher?

Got that right
That kind of drop wasn't an amateur running off to chase another stock. Did you see that volume? It was a BIG player bailing out, cashing in, or whatever.
Looks like somebody big just gave up waiting. Ouch!
Looks like HLXW is back in play. Time for some popcorn and a soda refill.

Can't you click on a user ID, then click to "ignore" that person? I haven't tried yet, but I think I will. Then, in theory, I won't have to see all the Q's and empty shells being pumped by those users. I don't mind when everybody is hyping legit stock plays...after all, we all get excited when something is on the move. But these boards can get loaded with the worthless posts you're talking about. How many times have we seen these 300%, 500%, 1000% spikes that last 5 minutes...
ARYX is having a nice day today too. The pinch is coming together beautifully. Check out the great curves

NVLT showing signs of life. Getting ready to dance.
HLXW...sshhh...don't wake the giant She's got a big day ahead and needs the rest. hehe.
Come on ARYX, bring it! Pop for me!
http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=ARYX&p=D&yr=0&mn=6&dy=0&id=p77558079059
Also holding TGGI. The real run is yet to come.
ARYX setting up for pincher pop. up 10% today so far.
http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=ARYX&p=D&yr=0&mn=3&dy=0&id=p27425269004
Got that right. TGGI entry now for coming pop.
TGGI = ouch again. Yep, unwise entry. I'll hold for now.
ARYX looks ready to pop from bottom now.
Beautiful pincher chart:

ARYX revving to go!

Also in pinchers: HLXW / TGGI / NVLT / BKPG
TGGI --> Back in at .02 and .023 this morning. Maybe not so wise, but with the acquisition PR, I thought it might get a little run again. At least I can hope this is bottom until the pinch opens up.
http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=TGGI&p=D&yr=0&mn=3&dy=0&id=p52908433951
Holding ARYX since 1.19 Looking better every day!
Loading TGGI here. It will run again soon enough

In small with BKPG on this dip.

Wow, I wouldn't have expected that movement from DRGZ. Didn't even take a PR to do it. It shot right up to that 50-day MA. Maybe this is the kind of play that was asked about SHIP? Where the bollinger bands come together? Seems random, but something had to trigger it.
The HLXW chart is more fun when you show the pinch:

We may get another CYRS bump tomorrow. Have a great night!
Sounds like you got it all worked out. And you're right about one thing...there's always another horse to ride
Yeah, I've usually done that. Pick the percentage I want and get out. But I found I was leaving a lot of profit on the table. CCTC for example, I jumped out after the first day, and then it went all the way to the 50-day MA. I decided I need to improve, so I went back and studied past pinchers and found that they often stopped at the 50MA or 200MA (whichever came first). Sometimes, if they were not tight pinches, they'd just bump to the 20MA. So, I thought I'd pick an exist "right before" the 50MA. I guess it is not an exact science. I don't get too emotional about it. I just want to find my cold, calculating way to get the best exist strategy
HLXW charts looks better after a green day. The next couple of days should be very interesting.
CYRS --> Sheesh, missed my sell target because it dropped early, before the 50-day MA. It could still go up tomorrow. I sold a few shares at .037 but held the others hoping for the .04's My biggest struggle with these pinchers still seems to be the exits. Getting in is one thing. Getting out at the peak is another. I still have a nice profit, but I guess I'm greedy. hehe
ARYX still on deck. NVLT still on deck.
HLXW chart is better than ever after a green day. I think there are a couple fun days ahead.
HLXW --> Agreed. A couple great days ahead
HLXW -- Agreed. A couple great days ahead!
I've not heard of watching for bollinger band pinches. That's kind of a new concept for me. All it seems to show me is that the stock is settled (not moving much lately). Sorry, can't help you with that one. Maybe somebody else here knows about that. I watch for pinches in the PPO / ADX with an oversold RSI.
I'm not the expert, but I love this pincher board. hehe When I look at SHIP, I see a pincher that SHOULD have popped, but didn't. See the pinch happened mid Feb. with PPO crossing. But nothing happened. The PPO pinch was not very tight (in the -20 range), but I don't know why the price stayed down. Unfortunately, the longer it has stayed down, the more the RSI has risen to adjust, suggesting it is not so "oversold" anymore.

Personally, I wouldn't jump in at this point because it's running too flat. I'd rather jump into some tight pinchers like HLXW, NVLT, ARYX, or upcoming PDGE.
