nah, not one of my better trades NOVL.. I dumped 1/2 at the after hours close but im going to keep the 2nd with a stop just under the offer price. NOVL has just been on my screen for about 15 years so the trade was nothing more then trying to figure out its personality ahead of time. I still think it does get a higher offer but like I said yesterday its a small trade, had a great few days so perhaps it was just a 'beer muscle' trade..
Who knows.. just glad my accounts sorta going in the right direction..
Also long USU, PSID etc etc blah blah.. Ok back into hiding I go... Ihub feels like a lifetime away these days go figure-just got tired of communicating during the day.. becoming a true recluse thank goodness : )
Seeya!
lotsa sellers in NOVL.. looks like I underestimated how many times its burnt investors over the last decade : )
Ill stick with my stop and see.. was my kinda trade so no regrets- no NOVL party!
NOVL- Seeing it push here? Im adding a bit more, but now im using 5.94 as my stop... It could be a headfake here but id love to see this fat liquid monster get some attention and jam it over 6.5. Im bored- finally had a few winning days so im doing a 'casino' play here...
NOVL - I dont even know all the facts yet? but I did take a small position here at 6.13
Ill add on the way up or take my lumps, who the hell knows where ill put the stop or add or whatever.. Might be smart to check out the facts first but NOVL I am confident I knw and I Think it will be trading over 7 soon..
this is about as honest a post youll ever see doh!!!! walking in blind : )
Yeah these solid fundamentals and massive recovery its amazing the maarkets not over 15k by now.. I think once we get the word that by end of 2010 all the debt will be sliced in half is also encouraging...
oh yeah also I heard after AIG gets this next 10 billion out of the way? both them and C promise they wont need anymore!!!!
Im long BIOD here at 4.25 for a swing...
edit- add CVVT to the long list...$12.47
I know those ads very well and know what? Those people should be lined up and shot too.. THey keep saying bankruptcy isnt the answer, ruins your credit, sticks with you- changes your life.. bull...
Try calling one of THOSE companies.. all they do is wheel and deal, and your credit still gets destroyed, you have to pay it all back and they take a nice fee.. Nothing but a scam.. Letsee- declare bankruptcy and start over fresh? or work out a 50 year payment plan where every gets richer but obligating you the rest of your life...
Not that theres much pride in declaring bankruptcy but sometimes its the only way out, and it sure is alot better then dealing with those debt solution jerks.. If I had 50k in credit card debt? after what they did to us? I wouldnt even feel the least bit guilty..
ot- oh I wouldnt worry about C... They no longer need a working business model nor do they even need to change the course they are on because taxpayers will continue to be forced to bail them out until we have another eco boom maybe in 10-15 years...
Its all a joke, but if I had someone to keep filling my trading acvcount anytime it lost money I sure wouldnt care very much about anything but getting that check..
...funny too? what happened to all these bank reforms...
Stole 3 trillion from us and yet the fed is still printing cash to buy up their worthless assets..
Banks like 'C' should have been closed years ago.. too big too fail my arse..
wow.. yeah, SEC is worthless.. Same thing with that GIFs I mentioned? They had been investigating them for about 2 years.. So to me? They are just as guilty as the law breakers because they watched as it fed off itself and people got lured into it.. Then once we all knew it was a scam and someone took a picture of the 'supposed' lot they were buying and it was watershed land? we all started bailing.. it was the so horrible because the people that couldnt afford to sell? they got stuck holding the bag when the worthless SEC and worthless FEDS closed them down..
Just like Picower.. The guy paid less in taxes then you or I.. He had Bernie write off fake loses so that almost all that 7.5 billion he stole was tax free.. I reported him to the IRS back in 1984 when he was stealing from the company pension and the kicker there was? THey agreed with me and allowed me to take my deduction on my $2000 IRA contribution? but they did nada to him.. nor did they do anything when his foundation found that cancer compound so to get around not benefitting from a tax free foundation? He simply bought a ton of shares of the company he was selling it to and profited 1 billion.. QUite a few whistle blowers notified the press and IRS and the IRS just looked the other way..
I think the amount of top dogs leading our country that were involved with Maddoff and Picower and that whole scam is staggarring.. I was stunned a few weeks ago when I discovered also that Picowers lawyer was one of the key people in prosecuting Anthony Elgindy.. Makes you REALLY wonder what happened there as all of Picowers friends were the very ones Anthony was exposing on a daily basis.. I remember he went thru all the names of the top dogs at the Nasdaq and I recall something like 70% of them had insider trading violations, some of them couldnt even trade anymore..
I post very freely now.. you know why? because I simply dont care.. Let them bust my balls.. I actually invite them to.. They are all pond scum.. They make Matt look like a saint..
Wow.. holy chit.. I had no idea.. and these disclaimers that contradict exactly what they are trying to do- it reminds me of cramers show 'for etertainment purposes' and yet he poses as the guy you should listen to above everyone else blah blah.. I dunno- to be honest? Im sorta insulted nobody has ever approached me to push a stock.. now im glad because greed might have taken over- especially if it was a tough market like it is for me right now : )
but I guess in all fairness? if the disclaimer is there? it really is buyer beware when you come down to it.. but with equities its such a fine line.. I lost a chunk of my Dads money 15 years ago by convincing Him to buy a penny stock called GIFs.. touted by Gayle Essary/waaco kid.. oh man we sold it at a huge loss 2 days befre it was halted.. thank goodness.. he was so pissed at me to begin with but seeing it halted a few days later turned me cold with fear- pure luck we sold it because back then I had no idea what taking a loss meant... I rarely play any pennies now.. I know some people legally make a killing with them? but to me why bother- so much easier prey in the bigger game..
geesh Gayle Essary.. last time I wrote about him in public he had his lawyer contact me- no kidding.. men and my mouth.. I remember telling I think it was Brad? on s/i? to delete the message and he tried to convince me not to.. but who needed the hassle.. Welp, Gayle is dead now so fark him... piece of crap.. sue <this>!
HEya Ico- sitting here catching up on things after a lazy week of staying out of trouble.. Reading the stories about good ole Matt and Evo heheheh.. Amazing how the SEC moves like a slug- this has gone on for nearly a decade and nobody can say they didnt see it but better late then never...
I wanna see him fry- but the fact that he pled guilty in lawyers terms that means Matt is striking a deal.. no surprise there- if you can front run and steal peoples money it shouldnt come as a surprise that hes willing to destroy a few more lifes to buy his freedom.. total scumbag matt is.. always believed that? now its just confirmed.. probably to help them find Evo and also roll over on a few more people.. They should stop that deal crap- its ridiculous.. Drug dealers get nailed with case loads of crack and theyll go free if they roll over on someone- better yet is like Sammie the bull that ratted out Jon Gadi? HEck, he deserve the electric chair but being ratted out by a murderer and then letting the murderer slip into the witness protection program? Wheres the justice there? and again- no surprise 2 years later Sammie was charged with selling ecstacy and heroin to an undercover cop... what a gem..
Hey- bragging rights here.. I was right about Matt all along.. Not hard to spot the rotten apples in a group. but what does tick me off is the SEC and the law is going to come down 10 times harder on these guys then anyone involved in the Maddoff case and THAT ticks me off something fierce.. The SEC should be ripped apart and replaced they are worthless as tits on a bull.. I just keep thinking of Jeffry Picower- 7.5 billion and he was able to die in his swimming pool, never charged, never scared.. So congrats to the SEC for nailing Matt and his gang? but shame on them for always going after the small guys and flat out ignoring the big shots that are destroying the lifes of hundreds of thousands.. Buncha worthless crooks they are too..
I think if someone did a serious investigation they would find alot of folks at the SEC should be in jail for life.. same goes for the IRS and all the otehrs that turn a blind eye to the big shots.. In the case of Picower- there is absolutely no way the IRS, FBI, or SEC didnt realize he was corrupt starting back in 1980.. The rot in this country is so deep im convinced its beyond repair... everyones stealing from the cookie jar except the people that really need it...
so there.. I vented.. again.. imagin that : )
fwiw- Im out of THOR a bit over 29 earlier on the push.. no volume, market sucks, and I still think it looks like a better short here.. short term of course..
Im flat..
Hey Hans- you enjoying sun still? are back to work?
This is one tough market, at least for me.. For the first time in 10 years trading? Mondays holiday I was actually happy the market was closed.. in fact, so happy? that Im taking this entire week and doing no trading.. Just the swings Im keeping since thats an ongoing process, but no stress for this week.. Got knocked around too much the last few weeks and even some demons crept into the picture so time to catch up on some eating and drinking.. : )
My biggest swing right now is THOR, but I have a feeling I should have kept it smaller as the volume wasnt that great the last few days so I have a stop for 1/2 of it to go at 28.24, and the rest ill dump under 27.5... Maybe it will surprise me? but for now if it cant get over 29 it looks more like a short damnit....
Heading down neck for lunch today- Sangrea : ) : ) Im realizing finally that if I dont trade? I dont lose.. so in some sense even if I just dont feel like it? Why do it.. I sure wish I had the ability to really just sit and watch and maybe take 1-2 setups a week.. The problem id have there is if both those turn out to be losers id have a hard time not trying to force another... freakn demons..
My swing account is still doing great- I gotta say? Rev Sharks site was the best investment I ever made last yuear.. in fact, I just paid them off for the entire year and subscribed to both newsletters.. I seem to get a LOT less emotional when Im just mooching the trades!
geesh- first great mood I have been in all year.. maybe ill just take the rest of the winter off.. letsee, beer, pizza, gain 20lbs and then come spring ill turn a new leaf.. : ) right...
awww cmon NOA...
still in with a full position.. Huge seller, but nothing but buyers for 3 days now.. Someones gotta blink..
: ) needs to break 9.2....
Baaaaaallliiiiizzzzzaaarrdddddd : )
Hey.. did I mention its a blizzard over here???
They can take my money.. they can take my health.. but oh man nothing in life compares to the fury and beauty of mother nature.. I live for this.. It honestly does alot for my soul and I mean that.. The simple things in life.. Honestly? the single only thing in my life at this point that makes me even consider a god or higher power is the perfection that is a good ole storm... I have literally sat here all day staring out my window- just like I did when I was 5 years old for chrissake... its just so freakn beautiful....
Geesh and I havnt even started to drink yet.. high on life baby : ) hehe.. seeya tomorrow..
Maybe next year we can make him man of the year like time did with bernanke...
Funny country we have here....
gapper - NOA
and the reason? because im fully in.. 8.8 stop...
Piece of crap seller.. but hes gone now, maybe just long enough to run everyones stops but im in.. lock and load :(
Tanks Ico- lets get oil heated up a bit here.. still cant get rid of this seller at 9 on NOA.. zzzzz
Snow really coming down again.. maybe ill go build an igloo and live in that for a few weeks- save some cash on heating..
:P ) think its a joke??
Such a brutal market- you wont be seeing me scream 'My accounts at an all time high!' anytime soon hehehe.. but I suppose this is all part of the game, it just gets frustrating.. On NOA? I honestly am perplexed because there is a huger seller at 9, and its not a short but rather an institution unloading (well, this is my assumption based on how hes playing it).. but what keeps luring me back in is theres huge buyers sitting hidden just under 8.9... If the stock can clear 9 on a closing basis I will jump in with both feet..
CATM another one- it was upgraded, did a swan dive and now its just sorta lingering..
MCZ blast from the past- but once i saw it was still under a buck I took it off the screen.. these guys were saying they were 'getting it together' about 3 years ago... zzzzz
Push NOA over 9 please? I never understood instituion/large sellers... Theyll just unload all week until they are done.. No concern about the price- just getting a fill is all they care about.. had this guy moved off the ask the last 3 days the stock would have cleared 10 by now..
Wish my power would go out- then at least I can enjoy my day! oh boy its nasty outside but i cant go anywhere.. beer in the fridge tho.. letsee how my posting gets slurred this afternoon :0
We have a blizzard warning now : )
So cool.. all my life the best we ever had here in northern NJ is 'blizzard like conditions'... They now just officially called it a blizzard warning..
So im losing tons of money lately but I got a super storm to keep me happy.. Yehar!!!
No surprise too NOA came up, grabbed my stop and then retraced..So now im loaded with NOA- will stop at yesterdays low.. this market sucks lately...
Long NOA again and break over 9.1 ill double it..
LEts try this again.. : )
NOA - long at 9... I think if it can clear over 9.1 its off to the races...
We have more coming this wednesday.. if it misses us this time? im going to buy a snow maker : )
Lately im taking intraday shorts on WLT but its a real gator and it will take violent dives only to rebound just as fast but so far I have gotten a bit lucky and keep taking quick gainers.. would erally love to see it just collapse but there still seems to be buyers when we see capitulation.. REally frustrating because my longs are not doing well, but shorting still seems to be real tricky..
I was sorta hoping we would see a nice gap up this morning for some shorting but looks like for now its a bit lower of an open.. Im really upset with myself- I seem to have gotten rusty with my shorting with all this upside in 2009... My heart is forever with the dark side- need to resist all this rah rah positive ; )
:) I guess in some way I do have to admit im jealous of Cramer and alot of these guys.. May as well be honest about it hehehe..
Funnier still would be if I ever do run into him and he looks at me and says hey arent you that loud mouth whos been biting my ankel since the days I posted on the ASND thread? bam! breaks my jaw and then talks about it on his show at night warning future anke biters hehehe..
Biotechs sure are crazy- I had all but gave up on them especially after my constant yelling that IMCL would go to zero and then it gets bought out hehehe.. but the last 6 months I have been paying a monhtly fee for access to the biotech portfolio that rev sharks site offers and so now I do keep an active portfolio.. but its funny, even with a professional theres just endless pitfalls and surprises but I guess it goes with the territory? but without professional help that sector is like spekaing another language to me : )
speaking of which im down on this ACHN now, another one im kicking myself on because I have a pretty decent position and Friday it gave me a good hour to get out at break even.. I have a feeling my stop will trigger today under 2.3.. THOR I took 1/2 my position off and will stop on rest around 27..
wow its almost 8am.. where is the motivation going to come from today? especially after being cheated out of 2 feet of snow? knowing how much I love a good storm you can see why I feel my luck has gone bad.. That storm was literally 15 miles to our south.. if you get on the highway and drive south? after 30 minutes you immediately are sorrounded by 1-2 feet of snow.. I got 3 inches.. what a freakn bummer!
So true Sulphur.. The contrarian trade has been the play the last 18 months.. That rally at the close today was incredible, and more so when you consider it was a friday after a lousy week and the assumption was nobody would want to hold..
The biggest worry I have right now is that every 401k holder just had the buy and hold mentality reenforced and it makes me wonder if the fundamentals dont drasticly improve by 3rd/4th quarter of 2010 we might see serious capitulation to the downside..
but hey, thats a long ways away.. lets get a rally here and continue this party.. I dont want this to end : 0 Last few months have been a bit of a reality check- im thinking i need to go out and buy some more lottery tickets and see if I can get lucky again.. : 0 markets not cutting it : )
Id love to see a public execution.. live from vegas, the 'colorfull' host as they call him.. The most trusted man in America.. A slow painfull death over 7 days so tourist get to see.. Cramer..
He should take his harvard degree and use it elsewhere but instead he choose to prey on innocent peopels dreams and crazy hopes because he is intelligent enough to realize that was where the easy cash was.. but all those brains and he still cant trade so I dont care how rich he is or how many idiots follow him? I take comfort in knowing I can out trade him even while im drunk and stonned (actually I almost always trade and smoke,) so between that and Ill even give him a 30% head start on his yuearly performance and Id still whipe his ugly face on the sidewalk..
hate him.. with a passion..
Speaking of idiots- I was in a rush to leave today and I bought a little AMAG at 35.5.. Jumps to 35.9 so I put a profitablte stop in and they grab me.. Just got home and see it at 39.. so here I sit bashing cramer when I pulled a stunt like that? I think its because I was sober being I had to go out so no smoking/driving..messed up my zone damnit.. bah : )
edit- I just realized I dont post much these days.. Im sure alot of people are relieved to see that hehehehe.. I think I ran out of things to complain about, although cramer I wont ever get sick of bashing until hes pushing up daisies..
He does look like he might surprise- he has that 'tank' sorta look to him.. come to think of it? that head of his too.. Ill bet that can take a few direct shots before he takes a dive.. Maybe ill just be safe and use a tire iron, what the hell.. why get blood on my knuckles..
All in good fun of course hehehe.. HEy- for entertainment purposes! doh.. obviously this is all a joke.. Last thing I need is for him to wind up 6ft under tonight and theyll come knocking on my door..
Just so hard living in the same state as him.. whenever I catch him downwind : 0
edit- surprised I just realized ACHN didnt stop me, nor did THOR.. so im still long those.. even added a long in SPMD.. but nothing in size, and cash is king.. maybe (c)ramer will recommend something for me tonight..
: ) it would be so priceless... and of course, we all know about my infamous temper thats alienated me from like 50% of my friends over the years on Ihub so it wouldnt be a shock- but to see him come on the air the following day with a big shiner on his eye oh man..
I think if I get a good enough lawyer I can easily make the case that I followed him for the last few years and lost a ton of cash so I lost it.. Temporary insanity..!
I dont know of anyone on this planet that has it coming to them more then he does.. I just want to know how he sleeps at night in case I ever persue a life of crime id love to know how he can live with himself.. Entertainment purposes only.. riigghht IC!
I kid you not- if I ever ever ever see him again at that deli he frequents? im going to kick his ass.. it would be worth the jail time, you realize that?
I mean good lord.. the epitomy of the word a-hole
: )
I am the only being whose doom
No tongue would ask no eye would mourn
I never caused a thought of gloom
A smile of joy since I was born
In secret pleasure--secret tears
This changeful life has slipped away
As friendless after eighteen years
As lone as on my natal day
There have been times I cannot hide
There have been times when this was drear
When my sad soul forgot its pride
And longed for one to love me here
But those were in the early glow
Of feelings since subdued by care
And they have died so long ago
I hardly now believe they were
First melted off the hope of youth
Then Fancy's rainbow fast withdrew
And then experience told me truth
In mortal bosoms never grew
'Twas grief enough to think mankind
All hollow servile insincere
But worse to trust to my own mind
And find the same corruption there
Emily Bronte
PLXS hod.. they uprgraded it last week I believe on Friday and it so far has completely shaken off this selling.. amazing..
Im just afraid it will do a SPU on me.. very rare for me not to be chasing stocks but for now I just cant : )
ISRG interesting too...
well, lemme know if your bored? ill stop by and maybe 3 of us can go bowling or something : )
or the bar... or wait, both : )
Decided to change my mind and went all cash.. Going to be a spectator for a few.. why bother ; )
great home sales report hehehehe.. yeah, recovery my arse..
I now have a pretty decent position in SPU after friday.. hopefully that and some of my longs recover.. I think we are at a local bottom here, but..
Freakn Ameritarde decided to change the size of the description field so now my day is going to be hell trying to read the streamer.. great start to the week being ticked off before 8am...
ok, now heres a question for you.. What in the hell is skypeople fruit juice? hehehe.. Symbol SPU.. I think I talked to you about this one before- but funny this thing is just a straight line up.. I grabbed some under 7 today, and just bought more at 7.05.. Its quite a chase but I have a buffer from the last time I swung it- this one I wont hold if it takes out todays low but geesh what a straight line up??
Its making me laugh because this weekend I was reading where the Vatican added that new 3-d flick avatar to its banned list and the wording they used was 'The movie worships nature instead of the true SKY GOD'..
I laughed so hard I fell off my chair.. The sky god? what the hell is that?? I dont ever think I referred to the god of abraham as the sky god but hey it sounds cool... maybe pie in the sky god is more like it but geesh..
Geesh it takes me back to when I was a kid and believed all this junk.. My lord of the rings book collection was thrown out because the vati9can condemned that too.. Im glad they finally caved on the earth being flat and also being the center of the universe.. god needs to open a better line of communication with reality..
ok im leaving :) time for some spiked lemonade with jim jones... : )
Checkout this pork chop hehehe.. CHOP.. played this one before and its got some nice volume on this break..
So mad about that DXD.. woulda been a great day that I certainly didnt expect, but DXD took my profits.. I still think every broker should allow you to bust 1 trade a year... : )
I have a few longs I carried over from last week and those are keeping me above water- but real tricky here I cant seem to see much that looks attractive.. Geesh id go for a hike but the park is closed for deer hunting : )
Nice long lunch coming up, that will solve the problem..
Yeah, looks like you got your green! I took 1/2 of that DXD off, and the rest I have a stop at 27.84... will add back over 28 or just dump it all into the close and move on : )
GILD over 46...
