Just added 1000 FREE at a little less than $1.78 a share. I figure that 2/3's+ of the current owners are upside down and will be reluctant to sell.

Considering it. It's a toss up right now between getting in FAZ and super glueing my penis to my belly.
 
I am very confused right now. The USD index up up big today, back up to a 79 handle up 1.

On any other day the market would plummeting, and Shipping, ME stocks, and metals would be going down 2%-4%. Right now everything is ~even or up.

Very bullish if you stop and think about it. If when the USD breaks low again we should see a market bump.

I think something is brewing with HEB. The Hedge Funds have been trying to push this thing below $2.10 for awhile now and it just won't go there. They let it run yesterday (got to $2.30), only to pound it back down. It hit $2.10 again and just won't go below that. I am pretty sure major accumulation is going on right now. I think news is at most a week away here. Disclosure: Currently holding 15K shares of HEB at $2.14 (just sold a little bit at $2.15) as my strategy to to keep using these fluctuations to lower the price. I think I am going to change the next 5K to sell at $2.25 as the resistence seems strong at $2.10.

Is it possible HEB is diluting?

I'd like to fish for some opinions from you technical guys if I could (this means you Siff).We hit as high as 996 on the S&P today. If you look at the chart, this brings us back to the highs of 11/4 (1,006) and/or 10/13 (1,003). These are the highest of hi's on the chart after the market went south from 1,300 last September.I'd really like to hear some thoughts on what this means from a technical standpoint. What happens if we get over 1,006? Do we head back down if we don't and what the support would be....Seems like this is just as critical if not more then when the market was held up at 940ish.

Well as I stated above I don't quite get why we are up so much today with the USD up. That said - the S&P broke though the 1,005-1,010 level and we are above the high of last October. Correct me if I am wrong, but that puts S&P 1300 on the table.

Isn't it just a matter of quality money on a day like today, i notice everything on my quote list is up except HEB and EEE (evergreen energy at 91 cents).

I'd choose the latter. Take it from someone who essentially ended up short 100 shares each of FAS at 60 and 66 in the past week.
 
Sold off good portion of my portfolio today. Congrats to all those that made some coin on C. I sold 2/3 of my position there. +300% tyvm Jim Cramer for touting it yesterday. Made it very easy to dump it today. Missed the boat on CME after contemplating it for a few days at the 270-275 level. Also looking at ICE and JPM. Hoping for an entry point next week.

Getting a little worried about PRGN but i think/hope they can beat the numbers.

 
Market up big today, all 8 of my current positions were down. :hifive:

ETA: I think the shippers are about to drop a turd and Otis should liquidate.

Is anybody in NEPH? Right now looks like a good time to get in at 1.25. Recently received FDA 501k approval and have two more in waiting. Stock jumped all the way to 1.50 with the first approval and has pulled back. These approvals are not for drugs, rather a filter.

Good thing I listen to my own advice. I sold two days ago because I thought I saw a better investment. oof. Hopefully this jump wasnt because of a leak. Hopefully it is just a head fake and I can get back in after the sell off.

Why? The Feds are crawling all over their lending division. One criminal find and you're looking at half your original investment. Not to mention that they're already in deep financial trouble to begin with. If anything, their chances of securing financing are circling the drain.

After the 30% drop on the Fed news I was hoping for a quick in-and-out. But you're right, I suppose it's pretty freaking risky. I'll trade out of it Monday, hopefully in the positive (and hopefully before there is any news from the gov).

I dumped 1/2 of my PRGN. I already made a ton the last 3 weeks and I sort of have a bad feeling about earnings.
Click to expand...
I'm right there with you. Slowly selling off bit by bit at the peaks. I'm down to holding 50 contracts from my original 220. Have made a killing so far, don't wanna push my luck. Tempted to hold just a little bit through earnings, but we'll see.
 
The Ref said:
Dont know if anyone is in on FEED but there are some speculating that they will announce earnings tomorrow.

Been waiting for a chance to get back in, but it's been going sideways in the high 5's - low 6's the last 3 and a half weeks.
 
And like that, out of PRGN completely. The options ran up like crazy today, and I couldn't pass up taking 65 cents per contract when I had bought than at 15 or 20 cents. If it falls off at the end of the day, I might be tempted to pick some more back up to hold through earnings.

 
Also just got out of the CNB I bought on Friday, for a nice 8-10% gain. Pretty sweet day here at Camp Otis.

After getting absolutely demolished by those CHK options, I ran my remaining $3k up to $10k in a few weeks in these PRGN options. Pretty fantastic.

ETA, CNB still running by the way. Some folks are making nice easy money on this one today. Guess I should have been greedier.

+0.097 (19.90%)

What are folks buying/holding today? Where are the values? Are people still looking at FREE and OCNF? They haven't had the runup that PRGN has over the past month. Are they at good values now?

Where else should we be looking for value here? Someone please wake Dodds.

I'm tied up in FREE right now, but if I had cash, and wanted to put it in a shipper, I'd put some in SBLK instead of the 2 you mentioned.I'm still holding my PRGN as well. going to sell half tomorrow near the close, and the other half after earnings.

Paragon August 5 dollar calls getting alot of action this morning. At .20 right now. Should be a moneymaker with any sort of runup at a very cheap price. Goes against the grain of buying options under 5 bucks but worth a little risk. We don't even have to make 5.20 to make money, just need a good .50 cent boost.

Bought some. Now up to $0.25, already made 25% today!

Last sale at .32. Ask is .30 and bid is .35. My 30 legs have made 360 in a few days. When it hits .50 i will dump half my position in all likelihood. The rest i will sell 1 or 2 days after they report or put a stop in when it clears 6. My other options are SEpt. 2.50 calls bought at 1.50. I may take hold of the stock on expiration day with these and hold long term.Edit: Ask is .40 and bid is .30. wrong numbers above.

Last transaction = $0.35 :unsure: Edit: Now $0.40!
