Being long. Not listening to noise. I went on a little tirade yesterday about noise and how it affects trading. From alot of what I was reading, people were expecting fire and brimstone today and for the market to drop, not breakout to new highs. I was very confident this wasn’t the case. If they [...]

Being long stocks. I was actually long the indexes, but I chumped out and sold into this mornings weakness. It was a mistake because the difference between the NDX and RUT would have yielded a profit of 1.64%. F$%^! Just a really bad trading decision. If MU trade doesn’t work out tomorrow (I see its [...]

ICOC - Sold for 8.75% gain
SMDI - Popped big for 6.5%
ONT - Continues to run parabolic. Up 100% in the retirement account with ONT.
TIVO - Went into TIVO last Friday and up 3.3%. I think the gap fill of 7.5 is in its future. For the first time since early October TIVO closed above its [...]

ICOC - The stock I picked up yesterday did a nice 4% pop today. Todays move looks to be a breakout clearing both the 2/15/7 highs as well as the spike made on 2/8/07. More upside coming here. Weekly chart looks hot. This really the only position other than laddering into some shorts that I [...]

Spec buys: BPA, ONT, GTW, and TGB. As well as the YHOO Feb 30 calls which are currently down a little bit. Small call [...]

UCTT is looking to close at a new all time high today. On the daily chart its a breakout from the October consolidation, but the day isn’t over yet and it will need to actually close positive. If UCTT closes at its current price at 13.73 it will qualify in my book. Volume is already [...]

I was iffy on the SIRI chart based on the action during the day, but the chart finished up being ok. I held the calls in SIRI and am looking for a move like RAD did today. A breakout. I don’t want to speculate, but SIRI can move counter trend to the market direction, so [...]

Well, I really bought Crocs, the shoes. My wife and I both. However, I have been scouting buying CROX the stock because of its cup and handle formation. In fact that was the reason for buying the Crocs shoes in the first place, was to check out how they are selling in the stores and [...]

All systems go for long. The NDX barely closed up today after very nice morning price action (Which is where I sold). I went long again eod today in Rydex.
Kirk apparently feels the same way and his quarter hasn’t been that hot, but thats probably because of what I posted about over here and at [...]
