TIM $16,140, Up $134 I didn’t expect any trades today, but when COIN appeared in Barrons recommended by some “guru”, PennyStocking was on (crap company + fluff news + predictable chart pattern = my kind of play)! If you’ve read this blog over the past few weeks, you know this stock and I don’t get along at all—I’ve had nothing but losses (which I cut quickly) trying to pick its ultimate top. I think it’s a horrible company, but the pumpers are deep and knowledgeable and when they managed to break the stock above a multi-week base between $9 and $12, no matter the hardcore research and anticipation of a double-top at $14, smart were the traders who switched off … Continue reading

Thank You Solar Fun For Exemplifying the Pattern that’s Made Me Millions just as Oprah’s Watching!

TIM $14,301 (up $161 on the day) Short 100 Shares Solar Fun (Nasdaq: SOLF) at $24.70 This morning, I surprisingly awoke before the market opened, mainly because the University of Arizona was not the party school I expected it to be—at least not during finals week.

And, if you want to see my take on gold diggers, def. check out this new … Continue reading
