I picked up a trade idea here and will give it a go on Monday as long as VHC doesn’t open below $28.90. One buy, and only one buy, and it will either stop itself out at $28.90 or I’ll let it run to $37.90. If it gets stuck in the middle I’ll close it [...]

I covered the RIMM and sold my MNRO early this morning. I locked in 5-6% on both of those. My 401K rollover also completed today. All of above gives me some extra cash across the Rollover IRA, my Roth, and my trading account. After a quick chat this morning I decided to wait until after [...]

I sold about 2/3 of my EK for around a 20% loss. It’s not working, and I don’t want to take a huge loss. I left enough there so if it does pop back up I should be able to break even against my original goal. I also shorted RIMM while looking for a name [...]

It was harder than it should be for me to find a printable one page CIDR table today. I shrunk, copy, and pasted this one into a size that should print on one sheet of paper. Click the picture then print. Enjoy!

I picked up some AKAM today. Looking for $45 before taking any sell or let the profits ride action. I also picked up my last block of EK @ 2.7195. That trade is just a bingo longshot hoping for good news in the lawsuits that locks a gain above $3.40. My avg s now $2.86

I’m not going to pretend I know anything special, I’m just following along as far as my GLD strategy goes : “@JimCramer – Sell 25% of Gold, Hold Rest” I suppose another way to put that is that no one ever got hurt locking in a gain! I started my gold position with a chunk [...]
