Hey Mates, I'm back, hope regular members cannot read this but I write a daily newsletter for stock plays and trading tips and thought you might want to keep an eye on this one. I'm not saying to buy it, that is up to you:

Note: This is not a recommendation.

Today we bought VLPI @ 1.88 due to the fact that they are scheduled to appear on CNBC tomorrow, plus two postal workers lost their battle with Anthrax today plus the below news release. We normally do not buy a stock that is already up 33% and has just now pulled back below our purchase price. This is a play based on news and momentum and we will cut our losses if it does not pan out. Note: it closed at 1.76, Tuesday will tell.

TIP

For those who like to "swing trade" where you hold the stock for 3 - 5 days looking for a minimum of 5% gains, keep these pointers in mind: First use the MACD lines to find a stock that is trending upward; second, watch for it to make a new high; third, watch it closely as it trades lower for 3 days in a row; fourth, when you see the first signs of a reversal, jump on it and buy.
