Waaay Too Many Stocks To Watch So I Resort To Telling Jokes

Tags: Breakdowns, Breakouts, Hot Stocks, Potential Plays

Acorda Therapeutics Inc. (ACOR) is not a stock I’d short right away cuz it had positive news, consolidated well and finished strongly…hopefully you dumb greedy bastards are in this so you can get squeezed, learn a lesson and cover to create a totally irrational price that would then interest me…possibly

Quantum Fuel Systems Technologies (QTWW) is still on fire, but it’s still moving slower than Miss Daisy, hopefully somebody can slip her an upper to get this rolling to mae it a worthy gap up play and inevitably a good short

Northern Technologies International Corp (NTI) is the one stock I did play yesterday, shorting 500 shares at $13.70, right before the market close of its first red day…experience teaches me the run is over…for now…especially with such fading volume, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see a spike attempt, considering how low the volume is…gonna be interesting to see how long I can hold this, gonna try for multiple days, but no promises…target exit will be to buy to cover into panic selling if it breaches $12.50…could drop to $11 rather quickly, c’mon morning panic!

Royale Energy, Inc. (ROYL) even though I featured this yesterday at $7ish, I waited for the confirmed breakout of the day high going into the close to place my buy order…limit was $8…it jumped too quickly, me being a cheap Jew, refused to chase to the $8.15ish…$9 afterhours, serves me right, no glory for wussies and this was a classic classic classic breakout of a Supernova, glad to see PennyStocking student Tony Ellis profiting nicely, pathetic that his teacher can’t…those who can’t do…

Mexco Energy Corporation (MXC) is another one I featured, but it’s waaay too risky for my little account, again, no balls, no glory

Fieldpoint Petroleum Corporation (FPP) is the same story, just not as ideal as either MXC or ROYL, but I warned you aggressive shorts last week not to hold on too tight

Capstone Turbine Corporation (CPST) wants to breakout bigtime soooo badly…maybe it will, it’s kinda sad to think that we already basically know this thing will be under $1-2 in a few years…but let ‘em put up a fight first, no little alternative energy wannabe company ever goes down without a fight

American Electric Technologies, Inc. (AETI) spiked cuz they “formally entered the wind energy market”…pleaseee, let the thing run, let Superman do his thing, this event is no more important than Puff Daddy changing his name to P. Diddy…gotta learn to buy into such shenanigans, if only for the entertainment value as you know they have more big-sounding-but-really-meaningless-PRs on deck…somebody’s jealous of the beautiful chart of A-Power Energy Generation Systems, Ltd. (APWR), they wanna ketchup

Limelight Networks, Inc. (LLNW) is the least Lionmaster pick to prove his dominance…that’s why I wrote about it in an AOL article…awesome job man, keep ‘em comin!

ABIOMED, Inc. (ABMD) got FDA approval for a pump (hmmm, why can’t stock promoters ever get SEC approval?), notice the immediate spike at the market open, not due to intraday message board hype…reversal unlikely

AVANT Immunotherapeutics, Inc. (AVAN) is another positive drug immediate spiker I ain’t touchin’

Broadwind Energy Inc. (BWEN) suck on that you stupid long-term shorts…I told ya, you gotta be quick if you’re gonna short these or else you get fried like your typical broker’s braincells cuz of all the coke

HYDROGEN HYBRID TECH INC (HYHY) has recently tripled, now making it a $200 million company that has $63 dollars in cash to its name–seriously, look–and $70,000 or so in revenues…oh and its getting spammed…any questions?

Kodiak Energy Inc. (KDKN) is now a $300 million spammer…chart’s not ideal to short…yet

SOLEI SYSTEMS INC (SOLI) is probly a pump and dump, but so what, as you’re seeing, these things can run fruther than anyone thins possible.

NANOVIRICIDES INC (NNVC) is trying to breakout and pull a Syntroleum Corp (SYNM)…the fact that it’s a spammer doesn’t bode well though.

Southwall Technologies (SWTX) is an energy-saving yada yada yada…can’t these guys come up with anything original? I guess you need to use the word energy to get the suckers interested, so I’m thankful these guys now what they’re doing…

Pinnacle Gas Resources, Inc. (PINN) has everyone getting all hopped up as if they were on Mountain Dew…chart looks more boring than most of these traders’ lives.

National Coal Corp. (NCOC) had a pretty breakout, especially when it got over the $7.75 hump, no doubt from fleeing shorts…weak close, still multi-day breakout, not a strong enough buy signal for me

    I was long NNVC at $1.16. Got out yesterday at $1.35 since it’s close to resistance and wanted to protect my profit.

    My TOS account is locked and loaded. Ready to trade with the big dogs now. Been playing with the software for the past week and I have to say I love it. Interface is tough to get used to, but it’s very powerful.

    Tim, you mentioned you use E-Trade Pro but place orders through TOS. Do you use TOS’s software or just use the trade desk via live support and stuff?

    Before I get scolded for random trade….

    Don’t follow new peoples - its a random quick scalp (how I play) - if I’m wrong I can cover quickly and just try again later…

    I’m waiting on a LLNW morning dip to buy in for a long. NTI I’m still waiting to move prior to possibly shorting.

    Shorted 300 more NTI at 14.79

  17. 17investorslive

    June 3rd, 2008 at 9:46 am

    ACOR can test $30 easily guys, be careful this has been known in the past for squeezing for multi day runners

    Shorted NTI at 13.85, but drooling over the current 14.79 price.

  19. 19Zykosis

    June 3rd, 2008 at 9:46 am

    nice spike? that’s a scary gap up…lol

  20. 20Webster

    June 3rd, 2008 at 9:48 am

  21. 21investorslive

    June 3rd, 2008 at 9:48 am

    Ouches Al, 1000 more today at $28.50 + 1000 at $28.00 - eeek, gotta cut the losses quick, $1500 not to bad but easily avoidable on a probably squeeze stock like this

  22. 22sonid

    June 3rd, 2008 at 9:50 am

    All out of my ROYL positon at 10.20 from 7

  23. 23sonid

    June 3rd, 2008 at 9:50 am

    NTI is a scary thing to short you all have some big balls !

  24. 24monkiman

    June 3rd, 2008 at 9:53 am

    beautiful PDO spike, shorted @ 10.22, covd 9.85. Good trade, since I was only monitoring it for few minutes

  25. 25JeffMoates

    June 3rd, 2008 at 9:53 am

    Covered ACOR at 28.90 for a $350ish loss…boo…I knew my post yesterday bashing Al’s move was based on something…what was it? oh yeah! REASON. Damn, break a rule-pay the bank.

    Come on NTI!

  26. 26timothysykes

    June 3rd, 2008 at 9:53 am

    good sonid.

    bad to all the people shorting NTI…u short into weakness, not strength

  27. 27investorslive

    June 3rd, 2008 at 9:54 am

    Nice trade Sonid - I missed yesterday completely otherwise I probably would have joined you

  28. 28JeffMoates

    June 3rd, 2008 at 9:54 am

    monki, PDO is nowhere near those prices…

  29. 29sonid

    June 3rd, 2008 at 9:54 am

    Tim, you DVD is finally helping me turn a profit! watched again over the weekend

  30. 30bullpicks6

    June 3rd, 2008 at 9:56 am

    Yea SOLI looks like a strong one, looks like after the big gap they pulled back to fill it immediately, and are getting ready to bounce now

  31. 31Webster

    June 3rd, 2008 at 10:01 am

    Covered NTI at 14.21 for a $250 profit if it goes back up near 15 again I may reshort

  32. 32Webster

    June 3rd, 2008 at 10:03 am

    Looks like I jumped out a bit soon, there she goes

  33. 33investorslive

    June 3rd, 2008 at 10:03 am

    bull - SOLI a bit to risky for anyone here, its a better under the radar style play… imagine if it ended up like SORD? now SRDG … eeek

  34. 34Ben_Bien

    June 3rd, 2008 at 10:03 am

    I shorted ROYL at $7.17 yesterday, again in pre-market this morning at $8.80 and $9.40 and currently I am getting squeezed heavily. What did I do wrong? I shorted straight into strength rather than wait for a sign of weakness, right? Anyone have any ideas? I refuse to cover of course, because it would mean taking a -$600 loss right now and that would destroy 1/3 of what I’ve made so far! Let me know if any of you guys have ideas about where ROYL is going. I really am scared right now. Someone hold me… Or, please put enormous selling pressure on ROYL! I was an early short, and I am paying for it dearly..

  35. 35Ryan

    June 3rd, 2008 at 10:04 am

    Tim, what about your NTI short position? Didn’t you short NTI yesterday? NTI has more seller than buyer today, so no need to worry, it will hit below $13.25 sooner than you think.

  36. 36Zykosis

    June 3rd, 2008 at 10:04 am

    uh i dunno, looks like the next supernova…can keep running the rest of the week…

  37. 37Ben_Bien

    June 3rd, 2008 at 10:05 am

    Rest of the week, but it’s ONLY TUESDAY! that means 3 more days of pain?? haha, I hope you’re wrong Zykosis, but thanks for the input. Hey, if it’s the next supernova, why not buy?

  38. 38YngvaiMalmsteve

    June 3rd, 2008 at 10:06 am

    NTI would have to break $15 to truly keep running. $15 has been a huge resistance point the past 3 days or so

  39. 39Ben_Bien

    June 3rd, 2008 at 10:06 am

    P.S. nat gas up a huge 2%, might that be the cause? darn this is getting ugly! no worries, I did this to myself.

  40. 40Zykosis

    June 3rd, 2008 at 10:06 am

    i wouldnt be able to look at the screen if i was holding that lol

  41. 41monkiman

    June 3rd, 2008 at 10:07 am

    hehe, oopss, not PDO, but ROYL… sorry.. shorted it again @ 10.38, covd 10.24. Im looking @ 10 stocks, so forgive me for quoting wrong stock.. hav a good day

  42. 42Bob (VC)

    June 3rd, 2008 at 10:07 am

    I bought into LLNW to early 800@3.7 dipped to 3.5 and I almost picked up another 200 just to make my average a bit better. Still holding, and still expect a small profit, but my entry sucked.

  43. 43timothysykes

    June 3rd, 2008 at 10:09 am

    looks like manipulation on NTI to me…out at $13.76, 6 cent loss…lol… i don’t like it and i gotta go film, weird life

  44. 44timothysykes

    June 3rd, 2008 at 10:12 am

    bob never ever buy a stock like LLNW after it made a big move, u’re asking to getting whacked

  45. 45JeffMoates

    June 3rd, 2008 at 10:14 am

    Come on Tim! You got out?! Screw filming, start trading more!

  46. 46Bob (VC)

    June 3rd, 2008 at 10:15 am

    Thanks for the info Tim. I really thought I could grab the morning dip and scalp .20 to .30 of upside. I still think that may have been possible, but my entry would have to have been much better than it was. Now I’ll be lucky to get $50 or break even..

  47. 47Ben Bien

    June 3rd, 2008 at 10:15 am

    Tim, I’m getting destroyed in ROYL =(

  48. 48Ben Bien

    June 3rd, 2008 at 10:16 am

    Nevermind, here comes the SELLING PRESSURRREEE. Back down to $10 now! Wow this really was a beautiful lesson.

  49. 49TomT

    June 3rd, 2008 at 10:17 am

    I”m just small potato compare with you guys… I long ROYL @ $9 overnight..only made a small profit $125..

    and totally miss the short of NTI @$15.. had it reserve at $16, saw the $15.. but didnt’ change the order.. damn
