    Why did stocks go up today?

    Bounced off Nov lows. Very bullish sign that chart traders swear by. So every body joins in the stampede. Also, Congress says they are on the brink of stimulus compromise. Also bullish as WS and banking has been holding its breath. Now we need newspaper headlines proclaiming passage to continue...

    im long some RIMM

    Over all this thing went up good but there was several good short moments, so I hope you cleaned up on them. The ovenight short would have been sweet, but who could have known for sure. But I hope it again makes a quick pitstop down in the 54s tomorrow. I could use a few thousand more. :)

    im long some RIMM

    Sold all RIMM on the second breakout, but bought the 1000 back at 56.75. We may be approaching selloff friday, but things are looking really good that it just may not sell off. Stimulus is down to 800 billions so a few Reps will probably turn coat. Meaning big headlines in the morning after a...

    There she blows.... Hope nobody's short.... Congress announced that senate may have a compromise as early as tomorrow, and we bounced off Nov lows. 2 big positive signs that lifted spirits and optimism. Didn't sell any NOK yet and at this point I will let everything run. The rally may be...

    im long some RIMM

    Out todays buyin at 56.40. Its a funny day with the infighting over the bank bailout. But monday will be the relief that at least something was decided. Leaving another 1000 for the up breakout. If it comes down, Ill buy more. NOK making nice gains too but not as much as RIMM but only ties up...

    I picked up 1000 longs in what maybe the last time we see in the 54s. Monday the Gov starts to announce rescue plans.

    Please explain "hedging" to me like I'm a 1st grader

    Sometimes, I go long and short same stock same time. Ill buy the trend. If market turns and makes stock head the other way, Ill buy opposite direction to stop my losses. When market looks to reverse again, Ill dump one direction so I can resume profit increase. This way I get maximum profit...

    im long some RIMM

    Welcome to the party. :) With Cramer continually hyping the stock, more and more people are finding there way here. Most certainly why its gains are holding up as the market wallows around. VZ and AT already reported and talked glowingly about their blackberry sales so we already got a sneak...

    im long some RIMM

    Dow is at a low so be carefull about a rally off the bottom in the last hour. If you shorts could drive it down a little more than 56.10, I promiss Ill buy more. :) Man this is a pretty strong RIMM day. Spent very little time in the 55s. We may be poised to run higher so always be ready.

    im long some RIMM

    Well this stock has a wide swing so people can make money up and down. But the bias is up, so be careful you don't end up getting run over. NOK moves slower so I play both sides of it. But RIMM is just itching to ignite upwards, so Ill just play the long side buying the lows. So far so good.

    im long some RIMM

    Ah, another headline, "heading to 7000 so start buying". I can comment on that too. True, downside is limited from here so smart buyers of good stocks shouldnt get squeezed too bad. But its the selling part that I have to really look closely at. At this point, from 14,000 high most sellers...

    im long some RIMM

    What the hey, things are flat so heres another post. In the past month this stock has gone from trading 38-44 to trading 54-57 and all month it has held those gains while everybody else is all over the place with the topsy turvy news. That is really bullish. And we still have 4 to 5 weeks to go...

    im long some RIMM

    Hmm, this is looking like a sneek attack rally. Quietly moving up, point by point, waking people up one at a time as more and more people join. Pretty soon we got altitude before people start to realize this is the upswing and things start to get crazy on the upside. I was already partly...

    this market is headed lower

    Uh oh, people are starting to talk bullish. Analysts must be preparing to come out tomorrow and downgrade GE. Somebody is bound to open their yap and mess it all up with some crazy announcement.

    Time to buy HOG

    Its no big surprize, pretty much all stocks are acting really crazy these days, and I dont mean crazy good. Stock value is not following company value, but rather market emotions. So he is investing in something he knows has real worth with a return that is negotiated before hand. I am...

    this market is headed lower

    Naw, shorts aint in deep trouble, we are in a trading range. Shorts may get squeezed some but we need big news to move up or down big. Wander down some, things just get so cheap people cant help but buy. Wander up some, people start banking the small gains to fizzle the rally. Obamas plans are...

    im long some RIMM

    Sold todays RIMM buyin for just under a point, (bummer) but got over 1/2 point on the half of NOK I sold (cool). Letting everything else sit for tomorrows action. The Gap up could be interesting if we could just get a bit of good news. Hah, look at those rimmsters covering their shorts. I...

    Hey guys, found you a new stock to short. Dennys resturant. Just got back from eating my free breakfast as seen on the superbowl. The line was out the door and around the building most of the day they tell me. Those that didnt wait got rain checks for another day. They also had private security...

    Once the DOW bounces off its low, wherever Rimm is at, is a buying opportunity. Green days are wierder than red days. When its red and rising, everybodys excited. But when Green, even when rising, its like its already good and it can only get bad from here. So got to wait later in the day to see...

    im long some RIMM

    Hey all, ain't this stock sweet? Bought the initial low and sold it over 56. Then I took a chance when it hit 57. It kind of hung there for a spell so I sold off everything. I was really hoping this thing wouldn't ignite and leave me behind. But I was thinking there were a few short sellers...
