Good luck to you. Might get another shot in the 20's, though personally, I'd like to see 25 before it dives again.
It's gotta get through this level, or we could be revisiting 20.50 or even lower. Place your bets...
Or stupid. Sometimes they're the same thing.
Haven't seen the dump volume we've normally been seeing here at resistance. Doesn't mean I'll wait for us to break through for long, though.
FRPT
As Zeev would say, bang me on the head with a 2 x 4. Just bought a bunch more at 22.
Just joking ;)
I took off the sells in FRPT. Don't see a dump here, but if it happens, I'll take what I can get.
That's what happened to me with ELN. Sold a bit more of that this morning at 22.50 with order to buy those shares back at 21.95.
OT
I rear ended a car yesterday. I tell you, it was a REALLY bad day!
The driver gets out of the other car and he's a friggin DWARF, stood 4-foot-nothing! He looked up at me and says "I AM NOT HAPPY!"
So I said, "Well, which one are you then?"
Nice trade. Can it keep going?
There you go. Still no big down volume, so I'll stick with my order for now.
I think you'll get it today. Not sure about mine.
Had a sell for FRPT at 22, but moved it to 22.25. Could be a mistake, but seems to have some strength to this move.
I think we are closer to a bottom than to a top on this one. I put a bid in for 20 and now I'll go back to cutting rocks (Kinda like prison, but with power tools). I really don't need any excitement this afternoon...
Later,
Jay
Don't blame you one bit. AH, I will have a significant bid at 20. If I get that, I will have a very full load.
Well, there we are. Nice bounce so far.
Have a bit of DXD, more of an insurance policy than a trade. Might be the only green thing in my portfolio for a while.
You'd think that'd give FRPT a little pop...
Maybe I'll get more at 20.50, if it gets there today (again).
Hey, I know how that is. Got to choose your entry very carefully, as you will be forced to live with it a while. That is where I'm at in the Fido account and why my bid is just above 20. I think I could live with that a while...
I don't think FRPT is really a big risk, hence the trade. I don't mind holding it if I'm wrong and it continues down. The news from the company is really good. Eventually it will take off again, but like all stocks, it needs to base a while. In the mean time, I'll take what I can get, but will probably hold on to a position as long as it is way down at this level. They announce a contract after hours and this baby is at 25 like that!
Good to have at least a token position if that happens.
Actually, I do well enough in his account that it messes up his taxes something fierce. I only trade his account when I'm consistently winning. When I start losing, I quit trading there; hence percentage wise, he has a better return than me.
He and his wife have no idea...I try to explain and they just say, "Keep doin' what you're doin'. Must be a gift..."
Anyway, it will get his girls through collage.
Thanks. That happens sometimes. Tried to put my buy back in at 20.50 in that account, but no buying power. Still, able to do it in my brother's account.
Let's try this again.
Out of them at 21.
FRPT
Got 20.50 shares. Next level: 20 (bid is just a tad higher).
Not a real high volume bounce off that last low. More down, I think.
I have bids in at mid 20s. Might change that depending...
You may very well get the chance. I will get even more.
FRPT
My guess is you will have another shot at it below 22 this morning. I don't think you will have any regrets selling.
ELN
Yes, I may regret selling those shares (still have some). Still, this one tends to trade up in the morning. Since it is based in Ireland, any news is out at 2 or 3 in the morning, my time. My hope is to get those shares back at under 21, and perhaps more trading shares too.
Hope we can bust through 23.50 on FRPT.
If I had TASR, I'd be selling it now, hoping to pick my shares back up for cheaper after the first half hour of trading. Probably that would not work well here.
Mornin' Guys
AH trading: Picture someone tossing an anvil off a 20 story building, and all the people who are suppose to catch it have gone home. There's just a few of us there to break the fall. Least that's how I felt when my sale went through at 21. Glad you guys were there to pick up the rest. I hope you got some very nice profit from that trade as you both deserve it. How much would the stock have fallen had those shares been put out during market hours? A dime maybe?
I participate in this early morning and evening stuff to the limit of my available time, and as a general rule, I have found that selling during those times is most profitable. It doesn't even hurt to sell a core position and buy it back during regular market hours. Buying, on the other hand, can be a dangerous game, but you guys played it masterfully, selling before the end of the day. You can already get back in cheaper.
Me, I'm going to see what happens at 23 and just maybe it will bust through (but I'm certainly not counting on it).
Again, well played. Hope we can do it again today.
Jay
Yup. It's about all I can stand. Rain has stopped so I guess I'll mosey back outside. Catch you guys in the morning.
Jay
Wonder what all that was about? Well, I expect we will test the 23 area again very soon. Guy could make a living this way.
You know, if it hadn't started raining here, I'd have missed this. Sure, I'd have gotten the shares at 21.50, but not the bunch at 21. Shows you it's better to be lucky than good.
Wow! Lookin' better by the minute. Trading at 22 which is higher than the close.
Then we are just a couple of blind squirrels, looking for our nuts.
Hmm...this is looking smarter by the minute: 21.51 x 21.69
Good luck to us all. Hard to make out what is going on in AH. The volume does not tell the tale. We will see how smart we are tomorrow.
Well, got a bunch at 21.50. Blew through me like grass through a goose. And now I just got a bunch more at 21. Don't know what is going on, but at least I have a cushion from this morning. Don't plan on doing anything else this evening.
Just put my order back in. Look's like you probably got your second order. Good luck with it.
Back to cutting stones.
Later,
Jay
My wife's w/Scottrade and it works for her. She always knows where she stands.
Mine is with Fido and it is a mystery until you get a letter that you traded with funds you shouldn't have. I like their platform, but they can sure piss me off!
Mostly IRA money. Makes it a bit more difficult, as I have to wait for the trades to clear.
Nice pickup in volume here.
Don't see anything to stop it yet. Still have the order in for 21.50.
If they announce some order after hours you could get a nice pop. That is why I don't really like being completely out, but I'll stick to my guns for now.
If you really wanted it, you should have put your order in for 22.0072 ;)
