Im also feeling a little dip coming. Great timing with shippers going to be reporting. Im gonna hang tough with PRGN and might actually add to my position. I have 10,000 right now and might get back up to 15,000.
Well - I split the difference with my mind and my heart. I just sold half my PRGN. I now own 2,900 of PRGN @ $3.43. Figure this way I most likely come out a winner on the trade and I still have enough skin in the game that if it runs to $5 I won't want to hang myself.I might sell off half of my Emerging Market position in my 401K at the bell and lock in profits there. It's been a great run it would be a shame to flush it all away."I've made a lot of money selling stocks to early"
I'm on the fence between selling half of my shippers and adding more until we see how the earnings for the shippers shake out. If they come in as high as some people here predict, they have a lot of upside even if the general market starts to slip, at least in the near term.
I know you want to do it real time, but even posting here after the fact gives a lot of us here a chance to learn in something many of us know very little about.
yes this is going to be like this for a little while. Many people just got shares at 1.81 to 1.85 like me. Also some institution bought out the $1.80 shares and they could be releasing into the market too. I think we are going to have a week like this where this just holds between 1.90 and 2.00. I expect once we hit August though this will start inching up on the fundamentals.Looks like we have a boatload of shares to get through to move up past 1.92 on FREE.
Boy this one's getting rough. I'm never in the game if I don't open up with a 20% dip. Otis and I seem to have the same touch.
Thinkin I may hop in this end of day. Why did it tank today?Boy this one's getting rough. I'm never in the game if I don't open up with a 20% dip. Otis and I seem to have the same touch.
No real clue. The past few trading days it opens weaker to make a runup starting just after lunch through the rest of the day.Thinkin I may hop in this end of day.

Cash for clunkers. I do have to give them credit for hitting the mark on the pricing.
I got in @ 12.5. Every penny is 200 bucks. With only 2500 total money this could make or break me quick. Hopefully we get some up and downs and we can ride it.
Yea. I still like acls. Just needed the funds to try and make a quick buck. I have a feeling srsr will pop or some very bad news will be coming out. Either way it will be big.
In for 410 HEB @2.35.Got out of CNB @ .58 this morning. That's a 13% gain folks after commissions.I think I may take this dough plus the GGN dividend and gamble on HEB.
For your sake, I hope you are right DD.
Well it was suggested that I just put a "time stamp" on the posts. I did that for the rest of the day...on every trade...so those can be validated by just looking at a chart of those Futs. It should provide some validity to the posts.All in all a good day. Total profit was just under $900...amount from my account needed to make this profit today was about $5k...which shows the power (and seduction) of trading emini futures.EDIT: I stepped away at the end of the day...but came back and looked at some of the trades today. WOW! I was hitting perfect exits. For example in the last trade I was short the NQ at 1599.5...and called for an exit with profits of 5-10 pts. When I do that I set the exit at the 5 pt out...as in futs trade it is first order in...first order executed. And only if the market begin to pick up momentum and it looks like i can get more do I change that order. Well after flat-lining for a while the NQ traded down and my order filled at 1594.5...a 5 pt profit. But the low of that trend was 1594.25. (just 1/4 pt difference from my out) Essentially for this trade it was a perfect out. How can I explain that? How did I know from my open that it would go 5 pts? Am I just that good?The answer is...no I'm not that good...but for whatever reason...right now I'm in sync with the market. That accounts for a lot...because there are times I'm completely out of sync. But if you want the real answer...a lot of it is due to luck. Dodds: I apologize for posting this stuff here as it is slightly off topic to the original thread about your trades...but doing so keeps me sharp...if you want maybe I could just resurrect my old thread "turn $5k into $20k...and keep stocks separate from futs. BTW: ou've done an outstanding job this year!
Yeah, this could be bloody for me in that I now have 25K shares at 2.38. I will sell some of these starting at 2.50 (if it bounces back).In for 410 HEB @2.35.Got out of CNB @ .58 this morning. That's a 13% gain folks after commissions.
1 for 9 isnt badSeriously...throw enough #### on the wall and something will stick.
I then I realized a quarter of the posters on that yahoo board will hold based on that.
Let's hope there is a run.
Just read a post in the Google forum saying that the whole dilution process is still in play holding this stock to 4.50 or so....Didn't a few posters here figure we were past that already?:waitingtopulltrigger:
i added them this morning too.
