Just some follow up. Remember HSVLY???? Another all time high today. This stock is probably going to the moon for two reasons.
1. My original finding of the stock based excellent fundamental reasons. Then actually purchasing it. Finally talking endlessly about it then selling it and currently not owning it. Probably the most important reason.
2. Like [...]

I talked about the confirmation that the EOY rally is underway around noon yesterday. Today we got more confirmation and you can replace COMPQ with SPX, RUT, INDU, and large number of ETFs, and stocks. The pattern is the same.

Being long worked today. Managed 3% in SPX, 2% in NDX. Missed out on 5.5% gain [...]

ATVI - Nice move today that rocked the options into profitville. I’m still waiting to hear if the options will be repriced with a better close, because I definitely got the shaft. However, the selling of the calls in the morning was a great move regardless because 85% gain in a dead position is better [...]

Bought HSVLY back today. Daily trendline break, weekly pullback.

Buying long this morning. The profit was minimal by the time the close rolled around, but profit is profit.  I added to those index longs at the close and it looks like its going to be a good trade based on the way INTC and YHOO are trading afterhours.
My SMH call options are probably going [...]

I think the big drop in the NZ dollar was the reason for the decline in HSVLY. Gains of > 20% deteriorated rapidly on the positions I had left open down to 4.5% gains.

Sold HSVLY (still have some in another account) and sold VSCI (still have it in my strategy account). Took 15% gain in HSVLY (gave up 10% over the last few days) and 5% gain in VSCI.
Bought more GSS. My IRA is overweight GSS now.

UVE - Continues to perform.
BWLRF - Started out the day with an erroneous tick. I was shocked to see -31.5% . Shocked to say the least. Ended up 4% on the backs of the commodities being strong all day after the FOMC minutes were released. Up 22%.
EGI - A gold stock and longer term hold [...]

Being long. The indexes still continue higher. The NDX had a late run that bumped up to new highs. I cashed out Friday morning, but went back in Friday afternoon with the SPX and NDX. The spread between the two was .32%. Nothing great, but still a gain.
ABAT - Turning into GBT tomorrow, ROCKING. Up [...]

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 [...]

Happy October. What worked today was obviously being long. I was long the index funds, but didn’t have a full position on with those. It was still a huge day because the RUT put in a 4.8% day and the NDX did nearly 2.5%.
The SMH calls were a great overnight trade of 28%. I will [...]

SVA - Up about 18% in a matter of days.
NDAQ - Continued to ramp on the Dubai - LSE deal. However, faded a little after Bush said he will “investigate the deal.” Either way up 6%
HSVLY - Continues to march quietly - slowly.
I actually took some index shorts at the morning prices and made a [...]

Being long, but in stocks not the indexes. I covered my index longs yesterday in case the market gave a little back today. It didn’t A mistake? Maybe, maybe not. Just lowering my risk because I was fully invested. I’ll be getting back in very soon into those index long positions. I’m just hoping we [...]

I sound like a broken record because I have bought HSVLY before, cept this time I will hold on. HSVLY is the Vanadium and Steel company out of New Zealand. I used to get quite a few New Zealand visitors to SR when I talked about HSVLY before.
The stock trades with a PE under 7 [...]
