Watchlist for the 13th of December.

by on Dec.12, 2010, under Finance / Trading

THC – Broke out on positive (ish) news of them rejecting a takeover. Could keep going a little, but this is a real company, and very liquid. So it will probably be all over the place.

ZIXI – Nice little breakout here too. I took this trade not because I like the story or anything, but the risk is extremely limited. You could lose on this 100 times, and win on it once and make money.

INHX – 3.00 is the key here. Potential long if it can hold.

JTX – Lionmaster involved in this one, Lots of resistance at 1.50. Be careful though, he can manipulate this higher through his followers. This one also likes to spike up at tax season, so I am thinking he is using that as a catalyst as well to influence the dumb money. Potential short.

COUGF – Nice breakout back at 2.50, but this is a pump. Potential short now.

CAPS – Seeking alfa article spiked this one (surprisingly the author of the piece is long the stock. (and yes I am being sarcastic)) Potential short. Here is the article. http://seekingalpha.com/article/241102-capstone-therapeutics-looking-to-capitalize-on-the-growing-dermal-market?source=yahoo Seeking average is an awesome stock promoter lately, even though they don’t get paid. Gotta love it.

ACPW Spiking up again, but I don’t trust it. Waiting for it to act right so I can short it.

NENE – The old OCTL. Potential short eventually, no shares that I can find though. So it probably won’t matter.

CWST – Over extended. Potential short.

HHWW – Big old pump. Potential short if you can find shares.

Read my disclaimer. Currently Long THC and ZIXI.

Watchlist for the first day of the last month of 2010. 12/1/10

by on Nov.30, 2010, under Finance / Trading

HLYS and URRE – Bought HLYS, failed breakout, took my loss, URRE, failed breakdown, took my loss. Usually I wouldn’t take these trades, but I am only risking monthly November profits. Will be more disciplined starting today (12/1/10)

PRM – Up on thestreet’s positive review. Not sold on their story at all, Way overextended. Potential short soon.

CRWG – Took a small short position on this one.

AMOK – Potential short

WLOC, MONT, HHWW all potential shorts if you can find shares. I think these might run for a while like NXTH did though.

Read my disclaimer. Currently short 1000 CRWG.

Watchlist for 11/29/10 Go Seeking Average!!!!!

by on Nov.29, 2010, under Finance / Trading

Seeking Alpha doing a great job of pumping up stocks lately. A few of the stocks below didn’t take me too long to find some seeking alpha flunky talking positively about their stock (which they coincidentally own shares of). Gotta love the holiday pumping season!

DMC – Made like 5.00 after commissions. This thing was boring, and I had to work.

VTRO – Followed a timalert, I believed he was right for the same reasons, but I was ignoring the price action in the same manner he was. Good lesson, unfortunately it takes losses to teach those lessons. That lesson is: Make my own trades, and follow my own rules. You think I would learn :) Loss of around $200.00. Will verify it when I get home from work next week. Still a potential short.

AENY – Dead Pump Bouncing!!!! Potential short soon.

IGOI – Potential short term long. Seeking Alpha article spiked this a little. Hope they pump it up more. Will probably be a decent short when the pattern is right.

MRVC – Potential Long on the 1.60 Break

MITK – Wait for the hype to fade, and it will. Potential Short.

FTK – Overextended. Potential short soon.

AKRX – 5.50 break for the potential long. Possible swing, this one doesn’t seem too volatile.

HLYS – Potential long.

Read my disclaimer page. Currently no positions in any of the stocks mentioned.
