TIM $13,871, Down $156 on the Day, Long 200 SOLF @ $17.70.
Check out my review of WSW Season 2, Episode 1.
Small loss today is a small price to pay for furthering my education. Sooooo many tiny stocks bouncing, the problem is most are actually bottoming/not up enough to short yet. Trading is so much more difficult than investing because you’re not just judging the company, you’re judging a company during infinite slices of time—most slices are unpredictable, only 1 out of every 1,000+ slices has the right variables to be worthy of your money.
And that’s why I bought 200 shares of SOLF into the market close at $17.70. This is one of many solar plays that have gotten destroyed despite stronger earnings than most. This one had a nice afternoon breakout, 5 day breakout, strong volume and could have a nice bounce here. If it cracks $18 with any force, should go to $19 pretty quick. Down a bit afterhours, we’ll see how long I can hold this non-perfect play that has better odds than most of rising tomorrow.
LMRA, up 40%+, a good lesson in how pathetic companies that spike can squeeze shorts badly on contract news and then reverse.
SWHC, another successful Lionmaster pick, coulda woulda shoulda listened to him and bought sooner, you gotta listen to the Lion when he roars, or maybe definitely when it breaks out nicely at $4.50 today and goes straight to $4.80 within an hour and a half without any dips whatsoever! (Perfect filling of the gap down from a few days ago).
CBLI, a shame it couldn’t keep going higher, screw small moves!
CHQ, this is how a stock that’s gone up a lot and has faded into the afternoon is supposed to act! TIM Reader Brian D. nailed this one, remember this chart, it’s something we should aspire to.
ACOR, breaks down then spikes up and breaks out, but only for about 5 minutes, aka the perfect example of why you can’t trust morning spikes!
SOL, today’s solar IPO that can’t get no respect, I’m watching.
CLWR, takeover rumor pumped on CNBC, too scary to short right now.
RICK, a good lesson in how potential bottoms become definitive bottoms on news that SAC Capital takes a stake in a company.
TRMP, a good lesson in why you have to cover stocks you’re short if the breakdown doesn’t occur.
