Jumped 20000 places today in the CNBC contest.  Only 200 more to go. Grin



If only I knew how to follow currencies too; then that part of my portfolio wouldn't be dragging me back.

Nice chart on AAGC.  Just be careful for any sell off as it takes little volume to move it.

Contest is a bit buggy - not super high on my priority because the server keeps crashing.

Meanwhile, into FAS at $12.78 Smiley

Into FDMF a bit at .0078 (couldn't fill lower).  Momentum is strong on this one, at least for a few minutes. Tongue

Watching PSID and CWTR right now.  PSID just started shooting straight up so I'm hoping for a pullback.  CWTR had a sell off yesterday so I'm seeing if it holds support.

Markets are back above the 30-day SMA on daily.  SMA is also flattening out, so this might be good for longer term; need to see if the next pullback stays above it to confirm.

Will definitely get into FAS or URTY on next pullback.

Was hoping for more strength going into mid-day here (when stocks usually dip).

FAS needs to break this upper resistance (across several days) to keep going.

Got out of FAS on its second bounce down from resistance.  These swings are getting smaller, as noted previously.
Edit: Nvm, got back in on pullback after it started surging up again. O_o Triple top if it fails to break 12.80 again though.
Edit2: Out at 12.70 - no greediness. Tongue

Into FAS a little bit here incase it reverses.  Needs to break the upward resistance to confirm though.
If it breaks support instead, I'm flipping completely and buying FAZ.

Might get into FAS if it dips under $12 again.  The last run was short though, so it's getting a bit riskier - will get out immediately if the support at 10.95K falls for the DOW.

RYUN jumped briefly to $1.60 and back down to $1.50 now.  I think it was just one guy buying a lot though, so I wouldn't enter too quickly.  Will buy if I can get in back towards the $1.40 range.

MACD is negative though (bad for multiday), I'll buy in more when/if it crosses but just in half for now.

Looks like it's going to be another spot on with the market ETF.  Grin Right now my tentative target for SRTY is 28 but I'll see how bad it gets.

Also watching CRWV for possible entry at .86

Out of SRTY near $27.

CRWV hit $.10 but is meeting resistance; might get in if it can pullback nicely to .09

Weird spike on the market.  Don't think it'll last though - back into SRTY at 25 (but not holding overnight).

Into JCOFD at .505

Think it's a safe play near the bottom here, lots of bids stacked at .49 and very thin ask on level 2.

JCOFD

On SRTY - looks like I'll hold after all, but it's forming a triple bottom so I'm not too concerned.  If it breaks that, it'd just be a small loss.

Here's a slow and steady stock for those who like week-by-week instead of daily.  Haven't seen a nice chart like this in a while, but I'd wait for pullback to the 30-day SMA.

Volume and bid size is increasing by a lot on TSTRQ.  I think it'll finally break .0168 here -there are few sell orders after that until we get into the .020 range (based on level 2).

But this is also the 3rd time it's testing .0168 so if it doesn't break, I'm done.

Looks like we might get a head-and-shoulders formation to confirm the reversal on the DOW to a downtrend.  Got into SRTY a day early yesterday but ah well Tongue Guess I'm used to penny stocks where the results are more immediate.  Averaged into SRTY at $24 now.



The MACD is also crossing downwards on the 30-min scale, which came right before the last drop for the DOW.
