This still looks good

Come on AAA, the Saddam/WMD threat was a canard and anyone with a modicum of political and historucal savvy knew that. The Administration had to find a way to get a big military footprint in the Middle East and Saddam was the ticket. They needed to fight militant islamic fundamentalism at the...

Is this schizo or what. THis is why am wary of holding a small cap biotech stock for more than a couple of days. They are so news driven. Potentially good news drives the stock into high gear. Anyway, this might take a bounce here.

THe gap down two weeks back was closed within one week then set off a good short. THe stock has since trade down to its .382 retracement of its July low - where it slingshotted up, to its high in October. Today it bounced off that retracement and I think it is worth watching to see if it resumes...

Republican Conservative You have two cows. Your neighbor has two cows. You run for state senate and re-zone the land. Your neighbor is now in a non-farming zone. He attempts to start a new business but fails. You pass a bill cutting funds for public assistance. He falls behind in his taxes...

America America, God said these words to me "Next year crown thy George so ye shall gorge From sea to shining sea. America America, God said these words to me, "Feed all the liberals with poison pills And take your land's wealth for free."

Your points are well taken, but my point was in response to the context of AAA's statment where he laid greater import to the politcal machinations in Washington now than to the war on terror. And the since ther have always been groups of politicos for whom power is greater currency than public...

I am up about $2500 since starting the thread. Starting this week, with trades commenced today, I'll post a recap at the week's end with P&L in an excel spreadsheet, or some other easy to read form.

THis has slowed in its ascent. Each of the last few legs up has been smaller in % terms and it may be topping out or at a plateau. As so many stocks that have had extensive moves up have dropped and hard, this one may have a fall ahead of. Maybe a H&S setting up. A break of the longterm...

This has been strong lately, and now it has pulled back to the 10 dma, where a lot of sharply uptrending stocks have found support in the last several months. Might hold tomorrow and reverse. We'll see.

This is true. But has it ever been much different since the birth of our Republic?

Not much. Except honest and forceful criticism could be too easily deleted in a self moderated journal. If you want to keep the journal and control the entries, why do it here? Isn't the point to write for your own record and invite the replies of others, whether you like it or not? This does...

Because it is, that's why. You want a closed journal, do it at home.

I had mentioned this and had been watching it but missed the trigger this morning and passed it up at 39.7 but decided to buy near the close at 40.67. I think this will continue up in the weeks ahead.

Got whipsawed and stopped on a couple of entries: Bought NFLX at 47.45 stopped out at 46.85, re-entered lon 46.20 holding net -.10 Stopped out of NTES 42.9 +.10 Stopped out NVEC 40.70 -3.75. This was difficult. I had re-entered this long at 44.45 after 2 separate gains almost worth 6...

Inandlong: About 2 hours a night looking things over. TraderKay: Yes, but if it gets more extended i'm happy to profit. If it pulls back, i'll look for a different trigger. I think the sum net gains have been about $2.5K

It'll be interesting how Maverick74 and his brothers spin this one.
