NXPI on fire today. My July 17.5 Calls are looking great
Insider
Yes I try to use this on all my Pincher Plays regardless of price. I will use the 100 MA for an entry and if I get in and it dips back below the 100 MA I use that as my stop loss. On TBSI I got in the other day at $2.99. If it can hold $3.00 I will stay in and if it breaks below I will get out. Nothing if perfect in trading but the 100 MA on the 15 Minute works for me most of the time. This will not get you in at the exact bottom but it will keep you from try to catch the falling knife.
Pull up REVU and look at the 100 MA on the 15 minute chart. In this case it worked like a charm.

This might be a good stock to buy Jan 2013 LEAPs and just let it cook for a year

ETRM out with a 9% gain
Insider
Nice trade. Take your 5% and get ready for the next one.
Insider
Find a nice profit say 7-9%
put your sell in and then just let it sit.
Insider
Yes we look at the float. All of our picks have to meet our float requirement, along with many other settings. Remember we buy all of our picks. Look at the results for the last 9 months, need I say more

You can not look back once you have sold. You made a 20% gain. Again making quick 8, 10 15 and 20% gains will add up big time over the long haul.

Same here , In at $1.66 and out at $1.79 for a 8% gain. No premarket. I bought in at the open

SWS
Picked up June $5.0 calls at .55

I like SNH as an Option play. I may pick up some Jan $22.50 Calls for $.20

MOSY sold some shares today for a quick 8% gain. Sold at $5.13

I do like Cisco (CSCO) but they are not growing at the pace they once had. Smaller competitors are eroding its dominant market position. Juniper Networks Inc.(JNPR), for instance, is just a fraction of Cisco's size but has grown revenue steadily over the past few years. Last month Juniper projected that fourth-quarter sales will be up at least 17 percent over the same quarter a year ago and Cisco is growing at about 5-6%.
I do like it as a long term play. Look to get long term option (LEAPS)if you want to play the stock. Buy the Jan 2013 calls and tuck them away for a year. If nothing happens in 1 year then sell your LEAP while it still has 1 year of Option value
Insider
As Losing stated I use the 100 MA on the 15 minute chart for an entery into a pincher. Pinchers can be a falling knife, you want to wait until they come out of the pinch. So I look for a crossing above the 100 MA on the 15 minute and I look on the daily chart for upwards RSI cossing the 30, PPO bars improving, and an increase in the Accm/Dist line.
I do not see any of those yet on TBSI. Play by these rules and it will help you to get a good entry. Do not try to find the exact bottom.
Insider
A break above 3.27 and I am in

That is pretty much raw insider data. We have tuned our software for almost 10 years now. Look at the results page, I think it is pretty dialed in.

No problem Game. The idea is for all the followers to make money. No BS around here just good trading ideas and strategies
Enjoy

Both. I will post stocks that I buy and ones that I am looking into. NXPI is one I have been doing my DD on and I thought I would post it. It needs a pullback becuase it has run up way to quick.

TBSI New from my scans.
This one was one of our Micro Insiders from Aril. Glad I sold this one for a quick 8% gain at $8+. It is now at $3.21 and forming a Pinch

NXPI
The nexus S phone is one of the first to have the NFC (Near Field Communications).
http://www.nearfieldcommunicationsworld.com/2010/12/07/35385/google-unveils-first-android-nfc-phone-but-nexus-s-is-limited-to-tag-reading-only-for-now/
In this article you will find the a company called NXP, they make the chip for samsung. They also make the "power management system" for the IPAD. The stock is NXPI and it has been on fire as news picks up about the future of Near Field Communications. The bigest feature will be the mobile payments capabilities
If Apple uses NXPI for it's NFC then this stock could blow up.
I just found this article. This explains why the stock has gone nuts lately
http://news.cnet.com/8301-31021_3-20013874-260.html
"Apple raised some eyebrows over the weekend when news spread it had hired an expert in mobile payments.
But now there's a report that says the company is already testing a prototype iPhone with near-field communication (NFC) chips inside, which could pave the way for using future iPhones as a mobile wallet.
TechCrunch heard from an unnamed source that on Tuesday Apple is testing an iPhone with NFC chips it's ordered from NXP Semiconductor. It's not clear what kind of tests, and it could be very preliminary in nature. But coupled with the hire of Benjamin Vigier from mFoundry as mobile payments product manager, it does seem possible that Apple could be planning to open up its premier product to the world of commerce outside of iTunes.
First, what is NFC? It's a technology that allows data to be sent wirelessly over very short distances, around 4 inches. It sends data from a chip inside a device like a phone, to a payment terminal, or even another device. While mobile payments is an obvious use--this is used in places outside the U.S. for things like paying bus or train fare--it's not the only one. It could also be used to transfer data between devices very near each other, say an iPhone and a laptop.
But using it for payments seems like almost a no-brainer for Apple, which has 150 million credit cards already hooked up to iTunes accounts, as CEO Steve Jobs announced in June to its annual meeting of developers. Plus, this is a burgeoning area of the wireless world. There are applications being built for iOS devices as well as Android and other platforms that enable mobile payment, so why not just build a contactless payments feature right into the iPhone hardware? (For an overview of the current state of mobile payments, see my colleague Jessica Dolcourt's post from Friday.) "

I bought the option the other day and it is on fire

I would agree, most of my trades are swing plays on Pinchers and Insiders and I will take my 10 - 20% . But on my long term option I will just let it ride.
Grap an Options book and give it a read.
Insider
I own the stock out right in one of my accounts and took some gains today. I also own 2013 LEAPS (long term options). I have plenty of time on my side. Do not get me wrong if this thing went up to say $12 I would sell my Calls and move onto another play.
Look at the Monthly chart. this thing is even a pinch on that chart. It is trading at a 10 year low. The stock is trading at book value. My bet is that with in 2 years it will at least recover back to $12 - $15.
One of the strategies is to find a good value stock and buy the 2 year LEAPS and just sit on it. If within 1 year it has not met your goals , then sell the Option because it still has value with 1 year left.
Just one way to play the game
Insider
I am up 25% on my DF Jan 2013 $7.50 Call and 36% on my NXPI July 2011 $17.50 Call today

DF up 12% today. I am up 25% on my Jan 2013 $7.50 Call today
Insider
You nailed it on the head. You get the same returns as the pennies but much better stocks.
Example.
I bought ZRAN Dec $7.50 Calls for .10 about 7 weeks ago when it crashed on earnings. I sold them a few days ago for .30. So I tripped my money on that play.
Insider
Thanks Rooster.
My costs are .90 .95 .99 and 1.03. I have sold out of the .90 and .95 for a nice gain.
Just wanted to get your chart opinion
Thanks
