Or maybe buy a YHOO $27.5 straddle for a safe play on GOOG earnings? Calls are at 0.25 and puts are at 0.15 (ask price). YHOO should make one dollar move up or down on GOOG earnings. 10 calls and 10 puts cost $400 toal. If YHOO makes $1 move from 27.60, the calls or puts could be up to $1.

PNNT IPO starts to trade 14 to 14.47. Possible a good play. PCS IPO opened early today, PCS did very well after the IPO started to trade.

Here is another strategy to play GOOG earnings if you think its calls are too expensive. If you think GOOG will beat and move up on earnings, YHOO should bounce from 27.60s here. Buy some YHOO April 27.5 calls at 0.25- 0.30, very small cost, could go double if GOOG/YHOO goes up after the...

ISIL broke the resistence - breakout - ascending triangle is the best chart formation I like to enter a trade, with a stop below the trendline.

Certainly frustrating right? That's part of our life - sort of like running a small risky business, low on working capital. I think I'll trade even less with the new broker because of higher commissions. Again, I've to be goal-oriented. If I made my daily goal in the 1st hour, stop trading...

Here is a trading opportunity, ascending triangle... ISIL..

If I can trade today and tomorrow, I would trade GOOG - pre-after earnings.

For some reason I've a hard time to access ET today, always gave me errors. Our tax payments were sent to IRS and the state on Tuesday night with two empty checks (for a total of $9000 Federal and state). My wife was worried IRS would deposit the check immediatly. I wired out the tax amount...

YHOO's trading range: 28.20 to 28.4, not much room to play unless trade with a few K shares. Short-term might still favors long for upside break, 28.40 resistence is heavy. http://charts.dacharts.com/2007-04-18/smallcaptrading_99.png
