    How long to wait out shorts (on a stock)??

    I don't have any problem posting the specific stock - after all I am already long. But, it's not strictly relevant to the question - I'm looking for someone who has seen a similar situation in the past... (so it would just divert the thread into a discussion of that company and that industry).

    How long to wait out shorts (on a stock)??

    This has been going on for months with this stock. As of Feb 12th, over 40% of the float was short. That was a typical figure going back several months.

    How long to wait out shorts (on a stock)??

    I own a stock that is: - One of the highest rated by analysts ("strong buy") - Owned by a number of institutions - Great P/E ratio and PEG ratio - Has great prospects in a solid business - All of the shorts' arguments are easily countered - Beats the earnings predictions every quarter...

    CNBC ignoring sub-prime stock up 64% and rising

    It's interesting that - What's on CNBC affects the market (if they say "breaking news that X corp is buying Y corp" then you can see the stock of Y corp going up 10-20% within seconds of the CNBC statement) But What really affects the market is rarely on CNBC...

    CNBC ignoring sub-prime stock up 64% and rising

    I often note that CNBC will ignore big moves by smaller stocks like Syntax-Brillan in favor of reporting an 0.2% move by Apple. But, I'm baffled as to how they can ignore one of the most important stocks in the group that is in the CENTER of the news ?? Not listed in their "S&P Leaders"...

    TWS Charts vs IBcharts vs QT ??

    Hi ! I transferred my account and so I'm currently using IB's TWS instead of Scottrade Elite software. My main software use is charts for equities trading. While I find TWS a bit "clunky" in comparison to Scottrade Elite (which certainly had its own share of foibles and oversights), I...

    Level II Quote Summary ?

    Hello, I understand that it is helpful in some situations to have all the specific information of a NASDAQ Level II quote, i.e. the whole breakdown of the size of the Bid and Ask and where they come from. However, often it would be more helpful for me to have a summary of the Level II...

    Q on stock following index...

    Are you referring to the futures for the particular individual stock ? In this case, the stock pays no dividend (and never has), so I don't see any reason for a difference between the stock and a futures contract for the stock. (As you can see, I've previously only been involved with...

    Q on stock following index...

    So, what you are saying is that a lot of the purchases of the stock represent purchases that include a lot of the NASDAQ stocks - especially during those ten minute periods when the stock exactly mirrors the NASDAQ. Is that correct? That would make sense, because there was no news...

    Q on stock following index...

    Hello, A few days ago, I was looking at the 1 Day chart for a particular NASDAQ stock, a medium sized company (15 B cap) that is well known, but not something that ever moves the market as a whole (unlike IBM lately, for example). Anyway, I added the NASDAQ Index for the day to the same...
