    OIH Up, CL down ?

    I was expecting CL to go down and I still expect to see it below $60 in a week but my prediction for OIH was not right. However I believe OIH is overbought and we will see it tank soon. It should go down to $142 range by option expiry day.

    Starting a hedge fund

    Titanic I believe your edge or your marketing edge can be that you guarantee returns over CD rate which is 5% and anything over 50% will be yours. I remember there was a guy in the market wizards 2 book which was investing on mutual funds and he guaranteed that you would not lose money and...

    OIH is a short term short today

    Based on CL action today , OIH seems a good short with a target to cover of 143 or lower. I believe we will see oil at 60 or lower in less than a week. In tech sector SNDK is a good short. Look at the chart and do a tech analysis. Everything is favor of short

    Sometimes I wonder why ...

    In your tech analysis term, if a company pays %15 dividend in this market, it is like the chart is off its Bolingar band. You don't need to be in the exce team to know how they do it. It is just enough to know that %15 Dividend in this market is impossible.

    I am really sorry to see the way you are ruling everything with Technical analysis. My point was that if a company pays %15 divdend, there should be something wrong. The max divdend pay by utility companies are about %4. You can see this fishy thing in your technical analysis. You could not see...

    I am sorry for your attitude. They used to pay that dividend but some analysts were saying that pay can not stay. Yes now they are close to get bankrupt but 2 years ago that was a high flying stock. The fact that I predicted NFI can not stay at $40, shows that I am a market guru:cool:

    Sometimes I wonder why ...

    When I do my research on the stocks, most of the time I find some stocks that are unbelievably high or I am sure they are pumped.

    What is the correct answer for a trader?

    I definitely say 2.2% gain plus a valuable lesson that you have to watch your account like a hawk. Many people won't sell for 2.2% profit because they are still waiting for that 8%. You did a good job by taking that 2.2 % profit. On another subject, For those who have an account with IB, I have...
