    SIRI: is this a real short squeeze, or a trap?

    Inter-day noise. As opposed to intra. How many days to cover? Out of total authorized, how much is outstanding? Out of the outstanding, how much is floating? Given the fact that most if not all mouse houses have a $5.00 threshold on shorting, it's safe to assume all short...

    Only hardcore lifers left in market

    IF you two clowns wanna be (not to be confused with wannabe) effective name-droppers, THEN a modest suggestion would be (again not to be confused with wannabe) to spell your scapegoat correctly. Adds a touch of credibility. However, those smiley faces adhere to the adage "a picture...

    Point and Figure charting software?

    I personally use MetaStock but if you want a stand alone program: http://www.pointandfigure.com It'll be less expensive than Dorsey Wright.

    perfect time to short financials

    Perfect is a strong word. And elusive. 1. That neckline will be re-tested. 2. Since you used the word financial(s), that's plural. It's "easier" to short an individual issue than a sector. 3. There's no free lunch.

    "Made in America" comeback

    Yes, Harbor Freight's wares pale to Danaher, or Snap-On, but IF it's tools you don't use often or a one time shot, they are definitely a better value. In essence they have their place. It also reinforces that anything worth a shit, made in the US, costs and arm and a leg. Lastly, IF you...

    "Made in America" comeback

    Chronic weakness of the US Dollar is the wind at the back of exports (and conversely a slight barrier to imports sans Chinese) I will say a Bic Mac in Portland ME tastes exactly like one in Portland OR. It's down to a science. Not THAT'S manufacturing and why MCD is in the DJIA...

    Drc

    Dresser Rand (DRC) is a short. April 29th hit an all time high of $55.88 (55 7/8) and yet also hit an intra-day low of $51.67. High came first. That could be referred to as a bull trap. Or...exhaustion. Broke the potent $50 round number on May 3rd. Chart would suggest finding...

    CSCO prediction

    Problem? I've got many problems. Some I can fix. Some I can't. The problem at hand would be out of thousands of stocks, having to wade Cisco and John Chambers. Particularly after its run ended a DECADE ago (albeit I have socks older than that). Did that answer your question?

    CSCO prediction

    Yes, your last sentence "says it all" Analysts? They're just shills to move paper. There's no Chinese wall. Darn, I missed the posts about SLV. Might be more fun (and lucrative) if you wrap a scarf around your head, find a dark room, maybe some candles, and read palms. For a fee of...

    IF you have NO position in CSCO and won't trade in it, then WHY are you bringing it up?

    Identifying an edge

    Paitience. Waiting for your mark. Seasonality. Probabilities increase or diminish. Appropriate position size. Enough to matter but not enough to hurt you. Two overlapping spheres with a sweet spot. Unconventional tools. Relative strength for example. Creating a synthetic price...

    How do you choose a stock to invest in?

    1. Insider ownership. Skin in the game. Option flipping is a foregone conclusion. 2. Insititutional ownership. Discovered but not saturated. 3. Reasonable Price to sales ratio. Fuck EPS 4. A 52 week or All time high attainable. The difference from here to there is resistance. 5...

    Poll: Sell in May 2011?

    Sucker rally. Most speedy oscillators have flipped. ADX failed. 6th of the month, most insititutional inflows are in and summer doldrums not too far off. End of QE-2 is a toss up. Commodities breaking. 'Bout the only thing remaining is 52 week lows still below 40. The last...

    Bin Ladens death cost me thousands.

    1. IF you're participating in a parabola, then counter-moves should be no surprise. 2. Thee above quote, is the most stupid remark I've read in weeks. Thanks for the chuckle. 3. Combined, you're giving me clues, which is NOT worthless.

    Bin Ladens death cost me thousands.

    RIMM halted why?

    This is getting rich, you're not. A company would not benefit from "forcing out stops". An ax would. A squeeze would be the opposite from forcing out LONG stops. An entity would only benefit by the theoretical "maximize shareholder value". Then again it might enable insiders to flip some...

    Have we evolved at all technologically these last decades?

    "health"? The last major affilction that was "cured" was Polio in 1954. And..............that's a preventive vaccine rather than a medicine. The AMA is one strong lobby.
