Is it true that it is only morally ok to short sell if you do it through a hole in a sheet? :)
Sorry, that was my idiotic question.. I’ll come up with something real in a few..

For tomorrow:
What is the best way to find fluffs before they skyrocket? Do you look on thelion.com? Read other blogs? Then who to believe other than Superman (look at his NTI today). I love your strategy but isn’t there we can go long on fluffs and then short when they are ready, it would be great to find double dipping method!

If your 500K was in your account to start the year instead of the 13K how much do you feel it would have been up to?

Besides the Supernova what, in your opinion, are the two most reliable patterns you look for in a chart?

Tim, as a student of yours and a big follower I have watched the DVD and listened to most of your advice along the way. My question for tomorrow’s show is there are so many charts and low priced shit stocks around how do you really narrow down which ones you’re going to play ? For example almost everyday you list around 10 stocks or so on your site but inevitably you only play one or two if any that day, please explain how you narrow your focus.

Are you actually taking serious steps to try and lobby the SEC to change their day trading policies? In my opinion it would be easier to lobby them to lift the time limit for traders that have active account for more then 6-12 months or something instead of trying toget them to completely remove it. What do you think?

How about HEK, anybody looking at it, lot of buzz for buying a $ 600 MM bottled water company on china…. looks like a supernova to me, waiting for first down day to short.

Besides looking at yahoo’s daily % gainers and the message boards at investorhub and thelion.com; how else are you finding stocks? Are you using a custom scan? thru clearstation?
How do you sign up with all the stock promoters so one can also get spammed with their junk? Who are some of the prominent stock promoters out there?

1)How can you tell a breakout before it happen? and how can you tell when to get out after teh breakout?
2)TOS is there anyway to set up a screener, since account under 25$k is not allow to use Etrader pro?

Hey Keith, when di you short RUNU, I like to short doubling stocks crap as well, however, it is different from supernovas addressed here, in the case of runu I shorted at 0.50 covered at 0.30 and never looked back, you are a brave soul to be shorting stocks under $0.10.
I shorted a little bit of UOMO, their pick for this week, it ususally moves within a range, previous spike at 0.80, then the y move in a range and faaaaddeeeee away.
Moving to more exciting stocks, any take on HEK?

Hey Mike_13th, are you around? I was wondering what your take on PCYC is? Do you think it’s going to fade this afternoon, do you think it will be up on the day, maybe gap up tomorrow?
What do you think is going to happen, or what are you expecting. I picked up some shares and have a mental stop, but I’m wondering if I should lower it or maybe even raise it…

for tomorrow:
finding supernovas is easy, entering and exiting them intraday seems to be my challenge. what intraday patterns are you looking at before entering a short position, intraday short squeezes? I seem to be catching the intraday on the way back up vs on the way down… that a patience issue or is my timing really that bad

I didnt short it I bought it this morning @ .06 and covered @ .09 on 10000 shares, net $278.00. I received a fancy brochure last week when it was .50 and I have followed it since. Been burned in the past trying to play these brochures.

HEK doesnt look like its gone far enough for shorting. Lots of support below especially just below 9.00.Means limited downside I think poor risk/reward.

Easy to feel good on a day when the bulls are running. May I suggest you go long DAR if you have sufficiently profited from your shorts today 8>)

June 5th, 2008 at 2:12 pm
novalis I am…I’m not sure where it’s going though, it has met some serious resistance between 1.40 and 1.45…I was trying to get Mike_13 to comment since he was talking about it earlier…he appears to be MIA.

June 5th, 2008 at 2:15 pm
Sniper, good job getting into SATC at 2.35…it’s sticking right around 3.09…why the hell can I not pick a stock to go long on that will give me a respectable gain…ugh.
How did you find that one before it went up .70?
34sniper6
June 5th, 2008 at 2:21 pm
jesseb- gotta realize it’s steady climber, not a spike up, stay long. Giving props the The Fly for putting me onto that one, but do your own research once you get a list of about 10 or 12 names, pick one or two of ‘em. Also like WEL long.

MIA, LOL. Yes, he mentioned it this morning. Heavy resistance, but stop is in place and we will see how it plays out. Still first day of its breakout move…

Since you have a taste of making considerably large amounts of profit ..50k in a day like you stated on wsw. How are you feeling about what your doing now?/ what do you miss? How do you plan to make that type of money again?

pink mist, purple haze, green clovers, blue diamonds, seen it all. Last time I saw the pink mist it was all over the inside of the mark’s driver side window. Messy. Chin up, keep some cash/margin equity handy, and the proper opportunity will present itself.

GOt fucked big time on NTI, bought the dvd, should use it more.
Crappy oil plays all over the place, lost 25 cents on fpp short but made 69 cents on cred short.
Scary shit, will let the smoke go away before reshorting.
still short on ptek here, since yesterday.

I really need to just get enough that TOS will let me short…I’ve seen tons of opportunities for shorting, easier to play too because it’s easier to tell when it’s going to drop, as opposed to when it’s going up…
I still have 1500 shares of SPNG, hoping some day it will go up a few dimes :P

June 5th, 2008 at 2:50 pm
With the SEC limitation on day trading (is it 3 or 4 per week?), IF a day trader has multiple accounts (ie: brokerages) technically he/she would increase the # of days trades they could do per day… because the SEC day trading rule applies to accounts, not the person… right?

how much money do you need in your account to short stocks? I realize this is stock dependent, but what is the min $$ for shorting a stock?
I know this question has an obvious answer, but I like random feedback… helps me think outside the box.
