OJ, So now you are long BRCM at 44 and up to 47, and its down 5 so why are you happy? We are happy because traders bought the gap fill this morning but you who have lost up to 25% on your last few weeks holdings, why are you celebrating? The strategy is to sell the gap up (CALM, etc) and buy the gap down, as I've done during earnings season especially, and not buy the 2 weeks of downside and get excited about a point gain. You are playing these semis like you played TASR! Heaven forbid if we traders did the same! You told everyone NOT TO BUY RIMM and hold through earnings. On RIMM that is truly what you did say, and when RIMM exploded you posted "If you bought RIMM, you'd be rich!" so you show a conflict of strategies. If it goes up and you mention it, you take the credit even though many traders called RIMM just put RIMM in the search engine around earnings time and you'll see. So it follows if you bought the dozen semis which you POUNDED THE TABLE ON! you'd be POOR! You can't have it both ways, PAL! I think they need paperhangers in the West Philly area you might apply for a position.
