My Stock Value Strategy Starts Now (3 Viewers)

David Dodds said:
If Paragon gets to 4.75 or above, I am going to start selling here. I still think it's going higher, but a weird dynamic is in play here.Namely, if I bank the profit I will feel GREAT and secure a huge win. But like what happened today, if this thing slides lower and I don't sell then it hurts a ton (even though I still have a BIG paper gain). If the stock has early momentum, I will see what makes sense.If the stock slides lower then I am waiting for the earnings. I really do think fair value is at least 4.70 so will chance things before selling at 4.5. Now if OCNF can just get going here (I see it's at 1.70 in after-hours trading. Please stick...). I am going right now and enter a sell for my 15,000 shares at 1.68 just in case it can trigger at the opening.

Repeat after me, the conservative stock player: "There is nothing wrong with taking profits."I would rather take profits, kick myself after an increase (please see my transaction on FEED), and then find something else... a new bloomer... rather than play a woulda, coulda, shoulda game after a decline in equity price.There is nothing wrong with taking profits.Rinse.Repeat.

Might be a bad day for the shipppers. DSX announced a surprise secondary equity offering at around 16.75. TBSI had bigger then expected loss. EGLE met earning expectations but I think some people thought they were going to beat. I think carriers that did not lock in longer term contracts last year are hurting.

Anyone think DRYS has the possibility to climb back to the 80s where it was a year ago? I'm thinking of grabbing some shares of this and PGRN in the morning.

 
VNDA popped a wee bit after hours with FDA approval of a schizophrenia drug.

Only up 824%. :lmao:

That would be like hitting the lotto.

 
BTW, Kudlow is sinking to a new low in stupidity, if that is even possible. Here we have the biggest cheerleader of the stock market bashing every Obama move. The market is positive for the year...as opposed to the 8 years of zero gains under Bush. Not that they will stay positive as this is going to melt down eventually in a correction. But if a republican was in office, all the moron would be doing is screaming buy, buy buy and capitalism, capitalism, capitalism. Someone really needs to put a hurting on that idiot.

I don't think so. The BDI hit 11,000 last Summer as a combination of lack of ships and high demand drove prices through the roof. Lots of ships are now in the pipeline and demand is much weaker so I doubt these stocks will ever recover from the highs of last Summer.

Yes nervous on some of these after-hours movements. TBSI's report was HORRIBLE. Like the management team was completely asleep at the wheel.I am actually warming up to OCNF and think it could be a takeover target with low market cap and bigger ships. Maybe DRYS will buy it with the cash they now have. I am hopeful of another big BDI spike tomorrow
 
Well

Looks like ill either be doubling my money tomorrow or losing 40%

Bought VNDA during the runup after hours. It went up within minutes, of course i got in at the top. $10. within the time it took to place the order it went from 6 to 10 bucks. :D

my first time placing an after hours order. :hifive:

Wish me luck!

Go Schitzos!

I used to hate Kudlow but I think his act is mostly schtick. He can hardly keep a straight face with some of his comments. There is a lot of money to be made in being a right wing bulldog. Ask Rush Limbaugh.

DSX has such a nice balance sheet that the secondary surprised everyone. If they announced it in their cc and if it was at market it would not have been a big deal. They could say they are trying to take advantage of market conditions. Now shareholders are talking lawsuit. Their management, like DRYS's is shady. I have a decent sized position in DSX that I am/was planning on holding long term but I don't like lying management.

Jesus. FAZ bloodbath. Why did I think this would be a good idea? Down 11% premarket, while all the banks, C, BAC, etc., are up 11%+.

This market is nuts.

I think I'm going to hop on the PRGN wave today at open. My first trade ever, lets go PRGN

Up nicely in premarket -- beyond the point where Dodds said he would start selling. Does he have nerves of steel? Find out after the break...

You don't want to save 500 shares for Monday's earnings?

I think that we will see another pullback this afternoon or tomorrow.Also, we aren't even sure earnings are monday for sure.

I saw pre-market hit $5.....Dodds referenced that at being a big hurdle because of institutional limitations on buying stocks under $5.....Could get interesting...

and out of OCNF at 1.72. Thank You. There is money in this stock, but I am not a fan of the management group and am going to pass.

 
Sold 20,000 PRGN at 4.94. Holding 5,000 for after the report or 5.25. Too chicken at these levels for me.

DXO is back up above 3.50. Thoughts on oil? What's a good entry point to get back in? See if it dips back to 3.25 on Friday?

 
Dang I wish business hadn't pulled me away from the computer.

Just sold 1959 shares at $4.75. This pulled back fast (thanks DD). Funny thing was I only got conform for 14 shares yesterday and don't know where the other 1945 came from. They were bought at $4.51 so I figured it was found money and I should cash out. $4.90 would have been a much better price. Still hold 2000 shares.

 
Taking the money down today:

Profit on 20,000 PRGN = 1.31 / share = 26,200 - 24 = 26,176

Profit on 15,000 OCNF = .09/share = 1350 - 24 = 1326

Still holding 5,000 PRGN

 
and just like that my trailing stop at 4.63 hit and I am back to 100% cash. I had hoped to ride this through earnings. I may try to add some shares if it drops any lower here

Sold 5,000 PRGN at 4.63 - Profit = $5,000 - 6 = 4994

 
Year to Date Profit = $88,491

Today's Realized Gains/Losses = 32,496

PRGN = $31,170

OCNF = 1,326

Unrealized Gains/Losses:

100% cash again at the moment
