Pabst's Blue Ribbon Trades

Quote from kinggyppo:

Man give us a second, looks good so far. You are short from around $91.00 at the close correct? looks like it tanked to $87.00
and bounced. So you should take profits in the low 80's otherwise its Old Milwaukee for you. :)

MOS closed the NYSE session at ~88.30. Where are you seeing 91.00?

I don't get it, please fill me in. This post hit 4 minutes after the close with the stock at $88 and change. It looks to be up after hours. Next time get me in at $96.

I'm with you. I want to see a post where the price is where my post says it is, at a time when I can make the trade too. Otherwise who cares? Posting after the close doesn't hold water.

What don't you get atticus? mos is an earnings play. earnings come out tomorrow morning. Period.

I asked whether anyone wanted the play before 4pm, and you and everyone else didn't answer. So i did my business, and posted it the moment I could.
Again, mos is an earnings play, earnings come out tomorrow, my post came today. Today comes before tomorrow on my calender.

Understood, but the stock was trading 88.20 at the close only to shoot to 89.50 mid. I thought you had perhaps mentioned it earlier in the day at more favorable prices. As it stands, anyone taking it at your 4:04 post is underwater 1.50.

Tomorrow is another day and anything can happen when it reports. Good luck.

Looking at Yahoo, sorry on my laptop, will check it.

Closed at $88.37, and afterhours looks like $91.25. I believe the earnings are at 10:00 am so still time get on a position. Damn now you got me interested in this thing. POTASH!!

I know exactly how the stock traded today, it was my biggest volume stock. Do you want to know about how much I made on the stock today in retrospect? Didn't think so. So, again, i'm posting it as an earnings play, and earnings are tomorrow. Whether I posted this at 4:04pm or 10:04pm is totally irrelevant. The only relevance is that I didn't post it before 4pm, and with good reason.

Well, at 10:04pm it's not crossing on an ECN, but anyone taking the reco today at 4:04pm would find it relevant. Anyway, I'm not going to argue what's irrefutable. Good luck with it tomorrow and I hope it drops.

Gimme a break atticus, I asked if anyone wanted the info to trade, and not a single person responded. So I assume no one traded it. To me, 4:04pm, 6:04pm, or 10:04pm is all the same. If I wanted to give it during trading hours, I would have. Geez.
Quote from Bob Rowshan:

Actually, what I meant was..if I have a blue ribbon special earnings play that reports say...wednesday morning...should I dislose it before or after trading today? As long as people don't come forward and request it be made available before 4pm to trade, there's really no difference for me, since the earnings are reported the next day anyway. Either way, i'm posting the blue ribbon trade "ahead" of the fact.

After hours is completely worthless, it's a suckers market. The earnings news is tomorrow morning before the market opens.

mos traded over 2 million shares today, and I count about 3K traded in the after market. 1/1000 of the volume on no news.
Translation: the 2 people who bought 1K and paid $91 and $91.25 in the after market are complete suckers and the prints are worthless.
