Some Decent Stocks To Play, Nothing Great, Suxxxxxxx

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

HOKU looks like it could take out $6, major 2 year support…either crack or bounce, either way a good potential trader

STXX was such a perfect short, I hope many of you got in on that, read about my still profitable trade and see why I’m a friggin blogger instead of a fund manager

COIN Everybody—all the pumpers—want this to bounce, it has a bit, but methinks this is a bear flag…but I’m biased cuz I’m still suing the last company their PR guy represented, just ignore me on this one

CHQ getting close to breaking out, it can really run so watch it

BWEN Not my kind of play, but I can’t help but think it’s gonna try to form a W here

GST Never short a first day breakout…you’re only scalping and then you’re a risk-reward loser

SORC is a great 2-day winner, early shorts getting squeezed, adding to their positions

HYHY can’t keep going on spam fumes forever, then again, it hasn’t shown much weakness yet…stocks like this have a tendency to tank hard and fast then rebound—see LAUD so you just gotta watch ‘em

PGOG is still a waiting game to rollover, people with balls are buying, I like my balls, I won’t risk the getting chopped off

    it does my heart good to see YHOO going down (just throwing that out there, did not have a position). selling out XNL after a 10% pop in less than an hour, using profits to load up on AUY long-long-long.

    HUSA is breaking out recent high of $8.00 today. And also if you pull up a weekly chart you’ll see it’s breaking out on a 2-year timeframe! Good volume, moving slow and steady. Could be a multi-day breakout.

    HUSA has no sellers in sight. Still good risk/reward IMO.

    Oh and BIOF from that same post wasn’t shabby either on red,was 4.96 at time of post.
    Sits at 3.12 at close today.
    There was a bunch of cash to made on that one also.

    Look at MYSL chart,was a pump few weeks ago and is now getting that “manip” look, the one where the white candle have no top shadows meaning it has closed at hods the last 7 days, just like LAUD did.

    P.S. to all those who are short FRBK, I’m in too so I’m feeling the pain with you guys if you’re still short and refuse to cover. I’m starting to get impatient with FRBK, it’s taking forever to decline, not as fast of a fall as the typical spammer fraud stocks or insane rises like STXX, oh well, either stay in or take the loss huh?

    Got some good LONG ideas too, let me know what you guys think: UAUA, NWA, DAL, LCC, AFCE, IMB, XJT, MGI, WM, XIN, ABK, MBI, SCA.
    Yes, most of these are real companies influenced by macro-economic news, so if that’s not your cup of tea then don’t bother. I already took a fat -$1,400 loss in WM so I’ve learned another harsh lesson about trying to call a bottom so if picking bottoms isn’t your thing, then these might not interest you. I like these because they’ve struck bottom so many times that it’s now becoming very improbable that they will continue to strike new bottoms. You can read more of my thoughts on my Covestor.

    Ben_Bien,
    LCC I am in right now long, @ $2.70 and $2.51 I tried to catch the falling knife on Thursday, bought in up-ticks just was not up-ticking enough (opps). I bought in for the bounce and could have sold this am for nice profit but, think there is much more.I personally think they will rebound much higher. Even thou they have been trending down for some time. Had up-grade today and seem to be trying find anyway they can to cut costs. Even closing some of their clubs and raising booze prices on the planes from 5 to 7 bucks, Now That SUX. But, then it’s not the booze on the planes that is expensive. It’s the $200 in the bar waiting for the plane! Ha

    UAUA No position at this time but, have been watching. Feel the same as LCC, AMR falls in there also. (If you look at all 3′s charts for Thurs and Fri hard to tell apart) Also I have not looked yet, I would bet there is still a fair amount of shorts on all the airlines, so more then likly there would be a squeeze coming soon for an up bounce..

    IMB,WM,ABK No position at time. SCA (Very Small position from a mistake months ago). The Financials are in the shitter as if you did not know. Would only play on day trade with news or major volume, long or short. If the market keeps rallying, I think most of these financials will see some upside. FYI some of the big brokers report next week, if their numbers are bad, all these banks are going to hurt.. The tide theory.. If they are good, we may see some Supernovas build for the short side!?!? Now that would get Tim Excited :)

    XJT, had position a week ago. I think they will will come off the bottom too. Just sign contract that will keep them flying. I have played them a few times. Very news sensitive and has some nice swings. Price of oil has not messed with them nowhere near as much the majors???? I have been watching this for another short term trade. But don;t know if it is really going to get big bounces since the buy-out offer is off the table as of last week???

    Going Long or Short. DO Your Homework,

    Good Luck, hope this helps a little.

    I liked the Livestock, but it was funny that you kept complaining about no plays, you should have stayed in greenonthescreen some more several people found some good ones. So my 2 improvements would be more chatroom following to call out good plays in real time, and more hot girls.

    Not your fault, but I found out from you that Russert died, so it ended on kind of a low point.
