10 Hot Stocks To Watch, Mehhhhhhhhh

So everyone in the microcrap space is whining about how boring it was out there yesterday—not enough big movers nor is there enough big volume. Hey, deal with it you lil bitches! Hot stocks come and go, market environments change, sometimes there’s just nothing to play…remember, this ain’t the real trading world like Forex or RIMM/AAPL, there’s not always gonna be something volatile/liquid enough to merit a trade…sometimes there’s just scalps…and as PennyStocking DVD students know, now is the time to just sit and wait for ideal trading opportunities to present themselves. So don’t be afraid to go outside and get a tan…if you’ve been profiting like you should, you can afford a few days off.

The good news is that unlike the rest of Wall Street, the summer isn’t necessarily slow as stocks can often become quite volatile with the right amount of manipulation/lack of volume…here are some potential plays, nothing ideal, but then again, ideal plays like we’ve been having are very rare…don’t get spoiled:

MYEC is a DoublingStocks.com pick, let’s see if anybody can get any borrows to short this pig

ROYL did a financing at lower prices, but spikes, then fell…damn this stock moves like a real company, blehhhh, filling the gap sooo slowly

PCYC had a weak continuation rally…boooooooooooo

ULGX vertical alert, vertical alert, won’t collapse quickly

HEPH is another vertical stock chart, although its retraced a bit already–why won’t any of these piggie fly past $5 so they’d be really worthwhile!

FLMP has gone vertical, god love ‘em for it, didn’t even slow down last time it went up a lot, it just went horizontal, let’s see what happens this time around

SOIS this was a potential short on its first down day, but I hate trying to squeeze a bigger drop on stocks up less than $1/share, the bounce shows you why

TAMO wants to breakout, it’s sooooo close, watch it

SLAT is a tried and true spammer, how much further can it go before its time comes, anybody find shares to short?

LGDI had a bigtime breakout, if I wasn’t filming all day today for LiveStock, I’d probly have bought some before the close yesterday for a probable easy 25 cents/share

Small cap oils may try to breakout today. Not going to chase in the morning. I’ll wait to see if they can show strength in the afternoon.

8TomT(TIMBUCKS: $56)

Shorted CBAK@ 5.12 and WM @ 6.15
9JeffMoates(TIMBUCKS: $258)

June 10th, 2008 at 9:34 am

Who was it yesterday that said the solar plays would rebound? I seem to remember he bought in to TSL @ $40 and SOLF @ $19.20. I feel sorry for whoever that was.
10Kris(TIMBUCKS: $66)

June 10th, 2008 at 9:34 am

11Adam

June 10th, 2008 at 9:42 am

did anyone get in on NTI’s drop this am? the ask was .75 less than the current price after it just went up 1.00! of course i missed it ;) that doesnt follow any rules talked about on here but i was pretty surprised by how easy that one was

SLAT CPRK shortable and falling
13sniper6

June 10th, 2008 at 9:44 am

Ryan- SHFL is also on my radar as a prospective short, has been for weeks, it is a casino-related stock in the PTEK vein. Maybe the spike will put it in play. Been a falling knife for a long time, IMO it needs a serious run up before I’d short it, count me out for now.
14Kris(TIMBUCKS: $66)

June 10th, 2008 at 9:44 am

DARN!! that SLAT! good name slat! lol
15JeffMoates(TIMBUCKS: $258)

June 10th, 2008 at 9:47 am

Damn, I am not good at the big stocks yet. Just shorted WM @ 6.56, covered at 6.65 for a $300-ish loss.

June 10th, 2008 at 9:49 am

17trader@MIT(TIMBUCKS: $164)

June 10th, 2008 at 9:49 am

Why would you ever short into that pattern?
18Timothy Sykes

TOS will reserve shares?
21JeffMoates(TIMBUCKS: $258)

June 10th, 2008 at 9:51 am

because, no matter how many times I tell myself to not do it, I always try to catch the morning spike at the top rather than shorting into weakness. Boo hiss on me…
22JeffMoates(TIMBUCKS: $258)

June 10th, 2008 at 9:52 am

Another good reason, thanks Tim.

Just received another email PMTI short recommendation.
25Rambone

June 10th, 2008 at 9:58 am

If SQNM breaks 12.05 I’m jumping in the short side. Holding steady on my PTEK short and TSL long despite the gap down solars are going to recover today.
26JeffMoates(TIMBUCKS: $258)

June 10th, 2008 at 9:59 am

FINE!! I finally bought the DVD…Thought I could learn it without having to pay the $297 + SHIPPING?!?! You can’t even pick up shipping?!? Just kiddin, I know your a capitalist-SOB just like the rest of us. Enjoy my $300, I’m sure it will bring you just as much happiness as it did me. AND that book better be signed with a nice little message too! something like…”JMoates, you are the coolest trader on my blog except for Tony Ellis. He is the shit, but you’re cool too.” -Sykes
27Kris(TIMBUCKS: $66)

June 10th, 2008 at 10:01 am

PMTI chart looks appealing to short, received an email recommendation, it is showing weakness, what is your opinion?

37Mike_13th

June 10th, 2008 at 10:18 am

Kris,

I short low vol ones as long as I see the spread is kinda tight, and have done well with them so anything over 30k vol i’ll short
And IB has almost all shorts i want

They even had CPRK which i shorted
if you saw the other thread i said got a pump on it last week
38Kris(TIMBUCKS: $66)

June 10th, 2008 at 10:23 am

June 10th, 2008 at 10:27 am

Yeah, he can…that’s why I hopped in long at $14.67. I saw his post on the Lion.

isph should be breaking down again, has a lot trouble holding the 4.90 area
44Anthony Brown

June 10th, 2008 at 10:36 am

Stay away from NTI! If you just watch the trade history, you’ll see the scam in action. They are all about killing shorts.
45Al

June 10th, 2008 at 10:41 am

shorted 1k PFE @17.97 PPS is at lowest of the year. It looks like it wants to go a wee bit lower.
46JeffMoates(TIMBUCKS: $258)

June 10th, 2008 at 10:42 am

Hurry up and get that DVD to me!!! I just shorted SQNM at $12.16, I just can’t help myself!
47trader@MIT(TIMBUCKS: $164)

June 10th, 2008 at 10:46 am

0.10 is negligible pain
48Adam

June 10th, 2008 at 10:47 am

Anthony, correct we’re making money by shorting the squeezes

June 10th, 2008 at 10:49 am

Tim I couldn’t find an an email address to send this to. Just wanted to see if you knew someone named Carlin or Carlia. I bought your book off ebay and in the front cover it says

“Carlin, Glad you liked the book. Here’s the final copy. Tim”

Wasn’t sure if it was your writing. Just made $315 off GGLB. By the way your book is wildly entertaining.
