17 Hot Energy Stocks aka Soon To Be Great Short Selling Plays

Watch these 7 free video lessons on how I became a millionaire

PennyStocking DVD students understand worthy trading opportunities only come about every so often—all the normal daily stuff is just too random/unpredictable—so by focusing on these few truly predictable situations, your profitability increases exponentially. If you can keep a cool head when everyone else is going crazy around you, this game gets much easier…that’s right, you 90% of trader losers out there, now is the time to try to recoup your horrific losses! (I’m talking to you, you sad little ETers)

I’ve been posting about PDO, MXC and FPP the past few days—even taking quick losses totaling $400 shorting FPP and MXC too early (wisely as it turned out, as those losses would now be pushing $5,000!! Uhh yeah $5k in gains from the long side, if I had any talent whatsoever doing that, which I don’t)—but only after we’ve gotten 3 strong up days are they prime for potentially predictable reversals, the extent of which we’ll have to wait and see…by now you guys should know the signs fo what to look for.

Since we’ll surely be missing them when they’re gone soon, I gotta link to every other site that’s featuring them HERE, HERE and HERE.

MXC ($10 to $43 vertical action, but its got some fluffy news)

FPP ($2 to $6 worth of vertical action, but its got earnings)

PDO ($10 to $23 nearly pure vertical, but its got earnings)

ROYL ($2.50 worth of vertical action to reverse into)

CPSL (nice sideways action, slightly negative close)

BWEN (waaay too vertical, but already $1.50+ off its high)

MMGW (50 cents to $3, no sideways action yet)

SOLF (nice sideways action, but already had some stop losses taken out, earnings today)

BRN (TheLion.com pump)

QTWW ($1 of vertical action to reverse into)

BCON (only up 50 cents or so)

CPST (too gradual)

NGAS (too gradual)

BEXP (too gradual)

OMNI (only first up day)

MPET (not up enough)

USEG (not up enough, too gradual)

No positions right now, just stalking…

  • wes

    Hey guyswhats your advice with using stops, stop limits, trailing stops on trying to capture some of these early morning spikes when your long and it gaps up?

    Yesterday I got stoped-out on MXC which severly limited my gains and even produced a loss onetime when my stop when off on a random gap dip which was quickly filled.

    If im watching these like a hawk in the first hour of trading for a potential exit should I just execute using market fill orders and have no stop order so I dont get randomly taken out on some random price gap?

    Im up 10% overnight on my FPP,PDO,MXC,ROYL long positions. So im just trying to get out with these gains.

  • JMoates77

    Hello all, my nickname has changed. Was JMoates77, now see above. Reserved 2000 ROYL and 3000 FPP for shorting today. With how high these suckers are going to open, we may see a complete breakdown. Tim, would you say a stock cracking is when it passes the threshold of where it opened or where it closed the night before? Using your logic, I would think its the latter. Just as Wes is pointing out, he feels okay about the gains he’s made, overnight so if it cracks the opening he may be less likely to sell immediately. The fear would set in once the thing actually goes red on the day which would be all the gains it made during the day and in pre-market. Your thoughts?

    It wasnt my plan to try to time the top, I was happy with my overnight 15% return so I got out, I saw volume fade for a bit and therefore I took that signal to get out. I ignored volume yesterday and it cost me my 30% mxc profit, I didnt want to make the same mistake again.

    Plus I had a target 15% return on all these plays, I saw 15% on paper, so I sold according to my plan. I dont regret it. If I had 25k+ in my acct Id be back in scalping here and there, but I dont so I have to take what I can get.

    Still, 16.5% overnight aint bad. Basically I just added 1k to my signon bonus (my equity im trading with).

    Hard to believe I’d say this, but for a stock that’s up 26% on the day FPP looks terrible. Granted I shorted WAY to early which loses me some credibility, but this is the most selling I’ve seen in the stock. And, this gap up just shows the real panic in buying, which is gonna subside soon enough. Looks like the newbies looking for a quick buck are all that’s left. I’m gonna short more later today if it continues to play out as it has.

    Missed the initial drop on MMGW as it moved too fast. Got in short at $2.93 when it snapped back. Looking weak now. $2.50 may be hard to crack though.

  • Matt

    Wes – Bulkowski has a lot of technical analysis about how to set your stop loss orders:

    http://thepatternsite.com/stops.html#VS

    You basically want to set them a little bit over the maximum swings the stock has made in the last few days. Like a lot of things, it is part art and part science – eventually you get a feel for the volatility of a stock just like you do with whether the stock is going up or down.

    MMGW down about 18% Tim…first day of a breakdown after a few days of a run up. What say you?

  • wes

    sykeshater – sure I made money but its only because the path of least resistance on these is up. I wont even think of shorting untill they have a RED day. Im not hating on any of these shorters like you are, without TIM’s site I wouldnt be making money cuz I wouldnt know about these plays. Mad props to you TIM.

    Quick question, and Im not breaking balls here: If you believe so much in Tim and his system, why dont you just give him your cash to trade?? Seems logical right mr fund manager?? Something tells me you all have the good sense not to do that, he is a loser who in the long run woll have no cash to show for it. He claims to be a millionaire, if thats the case why didnt he keep his “fund” open?

    Hater, you just made us all realize you are a fake.

    If you were such a succesful trader as you claim to be, you would understand right away that when you manage a portfolio cash adds up. And trading something with as little flotation as penny stocks you influence prices too much to make the kind of quick gains we discuss here.

    Get out of your mom’s basement and buy an economics 101 textbook. Smells like envy, can anybody else feel it ?

    Mike13th,

    If you have the day trade buying power, then going long and short on intraday swings works well. But for me, with a small account size and limited buying power, I might make 50 cent gains doing intraday shorts on these, versus multidollar gains by buying and holding energy plays for a number of days. So that’s why it makes more sense for me to do the latter
