These past two days have been raining gold for me. Lets hope I can carry this into the new year.
I was heavily long the past two days in the index funds in addition to the reg trades.
NDX did 1.6%, SPX 2.8%, and RUT 7%. I took these funds to cash at the close.
904-908 on the [...]

The market popped huge and the whole move was done by 10am. Then the selling began. Like a fool or at least I feel that way right now, I thought it was the breakout I was waiting for. In fact, it turned into yet another head fake. However, this round the picture changed on a [...]

In @ 5.2, has since moved 7 pennies.
Part of the biotech sector uptrend, nice daily breakout happening today.

I contemplated between adding to CALM or buying QCOR, and since CALM is acting $hitty, this is where I went. adding to sectors that are holding up.

It wasn’t a good trade, but it was a nice profit. EFU is breaking out and I sold into the breakout like a shmuck. I think its going a lot higher, but I have the patience of a hamster on viagra. I may buy it back. However, I’m still holding my watchlist picks of HOGS, [...]

I mentioned yesterday that I went short with a “medium” position. This morning I’ve added to the index funds in the RUT only. I also bought TWM and EFU (2x inverse MSCI etf). The EFU is a play on the strengthening dollar. If the US dollar strengthens, the emerging markets will go down. The weak [...]

I’ve been talking about retailers making a move in the last few days. TRLG is one of them. Plus its showing up on the same screen that was good for RTK, PWAV, SNTS, and LLNW.

I’m going to go and tag all those TRLG posts so they are easier to find. Back then (3 years ago) [...]

Biotech stocks brokeout today. Its official uptrend for biotech. From this point forward buy the dips.
This is the chart I posted on May 30th. I was saying at that time that there are signs of a move happening in this sector and that new up trend is possible. I said it in a shorthand version [...]

Nothing worked today other than keeping a positive clear head and figuring out what my next trade is going to be. That is up. I’m playing the bounce and I think its going to be a big one.
I bought some AMTD calls today because I saw the E-Trade chart and know that SIC hedge funds [...]

I bought some TOVC, a bulletin board stock, that I noticed starting to move on some news that they are working with Lockheed Martin on some military vehicles. I got in at 3.8 and the stock broke out of a 15min box to the upside. Currently up 9.5% since.
The morning longs in NDX and RUT [...]
