I narrowed by strategy by playing with the PE ratio. This time it selected ATRM and AXL (again). ATRM Closed Flat, which is understandable because of the low volume. AXL closed up 11% again today. I'm going to follow this strategy throughout next week to see if it will produce...

I know it's a little "after the fact" but I wanted to put my picks for the day out here for future reference. WRLS (Closed up 5.3%) HUSA (Closed up 5.68%) ASPM (Closed up 5.20%) CHIC (Closed down 1.2%) MWE (Closed up 11.45%) Here's the strategy that I looked at: For these picks, I...

Trading Thoughts for 1/19/09 Looking for a 5%-10% gain this week in these stocks. RRGB KV.A JAZZ FTBK DAN TUES This goes against my strategy in that I only wanted to pick one or two stocks at a time, but I'm still too nervous to "get back into the game" at the moment. Once I...

Can you explain "consolidation" in a little more detail?

Thanks again for the feedback. I really do appreciate it! So...what do you think about UYG?

Trading Thought for 1/15/09: UYG - I see this one going to 5.58 in the next 2-3 Days.

DWCH - "If" I had bought into this one at the gap up on 1/9, I still would have stood a chance to set my stop loss and walk away with 5%. ICOP - "If" I had bought into this one at the gap up on 1/9, I still would have stood a chance to set my stop loss and walk away with 15%. COOL - "If"...

Okay..not a very good day for this one, but I'm working on a 2-4 day holding strategy. I still think this is going to 1.59. Time will tell. By the way, I am not in this one right now. I'm just looking. :)

Okay, so I was thinking of this as a possible position at 2.10 and it's gone as high as 2.44 since then. Not bad.

Please don't mistake my enthusiasum for arrogance. It was just exciting for me to see a "no recent news" (at least what I could find) equity increase in price by nearly 10% based on elementary analysis. Trading thoughts for 1/14/09: SIFY - Sify Technologies Limited - My screener shows...

I guess even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while...TOMO up nearly 9% today!

Trading Thoughts for 1/13/09: TOMO - Looking for Close of 2.59 by close on 1/13.

You know...the thought did cross my mind today regarding VZ. I Bought in at 32.11 and from what I can see it looks like it should get back to just under 33 tomorrow. I'm not ready to short stocks right now. I need to get myself to a more confident level of seeing the upside before I try to...

Ended up staying away from the previously mentioned stocks. Currently, I am holding VZ, GM :confused: , and ANDS. Other than VZ, I really don't know why the hell I am holding the other two. Planning to hopefully break even (after commissions) on both early next week.

Trading Thoughts for 1/9/09: DWCH ICOP COOL I'm genuine when I say that I am looking for people to "shoot holes" in these picks. What is it that I am missing that would tell others that these would be bad?

ARIA popped 21.43% today. It appears that I just need to develop the stomach for my swing trading strategy. I opted out of the open above .86 yesterday. Then it closes at 1.19 today :eek:

I have looked at Erik's post each and every day since he started it. As a new trader, I like to research each stock and try to understand why he picks what he does. Granted, Erik's experience is far beyond what I have at the moment, but I have learned something about each pick. Thus far, I...

I have to first give credit to erikrkolodny because he mentioned this as one of his "trading thoughts" for the day. But after I looked at it, it just seemed like a good buy. TD Ameritrade Strategy Desk
