    Hey, how far do you expect this to fall? It might be a worthwhile short if it goes back to where it came from.

    gotta take out 2-day support in the $4.35-$4.45 range, but if that happens, u could/should get a morning panic taking out stop losses at $4…i aim to cover in the mid 3s

    How do you calculate the cover in the mid 3’s, isn’t the next support @ 4 ish? Is it just a safe distance from the most important support?

    Hell, I know you don’t use fibronacchi retracements (they don’t fucking work anyway).

    NEED ADVICE - what brokers do you all have that let you short these penny stocks? Ameritrade almost never lets me short these dogs, the only one I got successfully lately was USU. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

    Might help having an FAQ page.

    Tim, you don’t need to be arrogant and insult others calling lazy. Do you remember your commitment to teach others though this whole TIM thing. You should make a page for FAQ to newbies rather than insulting telling them you have to repeatdly answer the same questions.

    there is an FAQ at the bottom, there’s also a search button at the top, it’s not arrogance me calling people lazy, its annoyance…this site has pretty much all the trading info it will ever have, now its just time for me to update based on current plays

    Ps i’m be committed to teaching, i’m just not the boring mild mannered teacher u’re thinking of, i’m a f@#$en trader

    If you can’t find the initiative to look for the information on this site, maybe this trading stuff isn’t right for you.

    I’m not lazy OH ARROGANT ONE, I did a search and only found ThinkorSwim, I think they’re pricing is high. What a bunch of PRICKS

  14. 14be-the-ball

    April 9th, 2008 at 11:07 pm

    LOL Val, who cares about negligible commissions and fees, u wanna short penny stocks, u short em…have fun at scottrade, saving your $2/trade and missing out on multi-thousands of profits

  16. 16What Bubba Found Out

    Commissions? Nobody worries that nowadays, do they? Think of all the calls made to customers by brokers with ideas about what the coolest option manipulation/position would be for the customer’s account. Think about the commissions those customers are paying. I’d rather follow Cramer’s advice. Yow-Zah! Like the book says: if it’s named after a critter, it probably ain’t got much probability for profit (altho the potential may look good on paper). Yow-Zah!

    Windin’ and unwindin’ keeps the old watch runnin’, don’t it?

PDO, up $4+ today, will teach you not to randomly short strong penny stocks, get in, get out then run...cuz sometimes they squeeze stubborn shorts to death!

No ideal short plays today, check out these 2 interviews while we wait for price action perfection

I wish I'd listened to my own rulebook, instead got squeezed for $400 shorting blatant-fraud KYUS too early...someone needs a refresher course this weekend!

I nailed NCOC's 20% rise today in my pre-market post, but I was too biased against buying little breakouts, learn from my mistakes!
