Hot Stocks: A Bunch Of Mediocre Wannabes aka Stocks Not Gone Wild

Tags: ANALysts, Analogies, Hot Stocks, Potential Plays

No ideal trade setups, just getting bored by a bunch of mediocre chicks

(GOOG) Great earnings, gotta respect the after-hours stock gains, optimistic people looking for an excuse…but be careful–$200 million in one-time currency gains—without it, wouldn’t be such a blowout…too pricey a stock to matter to TIM, but just be a little weary here.

(FEED) Just cuz I said this is a typical smallcap raising capital at inflated prices, doesn’t mean those inflated prices will deflate anytime soon. Classic finance idiots gotta learn to read—what are you guys a bunch of typically coked out Wall Street ANALysts?—I also explained that whoever bought the $10 million at $16 now has a huuuuge incentive to pump the stock. It’s called a balanced blog post, deal with it suckas!

(MMTIF) Still watching this TRUE pump and dump, again doesn’t mean I’m gonna short it—pump and dumps can last much longer than anyone expects, as (MXFD) shorts have learned the hard way

(PWSV) Another pump and dump I’m watching, as usual shares are tough to borrow, but you still gotta try each and every day just in case it shows signs of reversing which oculd lead to the big (YTBLA)-like crack

(EDEN) When I wrote for TheStreet.com, they said no to articles about stocks worth less than $125 million…in featuring EDEN, a $3 million company, they either forgot the rules or just don’t care anymore…just like CNBC, this is irresponsible financial journalism from which you can profit, just gotta borrow shares and wait for signs of a reversal

(DGLY) Gotta buy this on the news-based high volume breakout—happened right when I was in the Buffalo airport—damnit! You guys shoulda been all over this.

(UFPT) Just keeps going, don’t short it you see the whites of their eyes, meaning the reds of their candles

(RDTA) One of the prettiest charts I’ve seen in a while, perfect breakout, higher highs, only problem is volume is pathetic…since it’s clearly not in play, not sure if I’ll enter

(VISN) Sad breakdown at the market open yesterday followed by a nice morning spike followed by gradual downtrending—ewwwww I hate the way these real companies trade, bring on the frauds!

(XIDE) Same annoying “real company price action” as VISN, just in reverse, blehhhhh

C’mon promoters, be useful, gimme something hot to play…WHERE MY FRAUDS AT!

    Pumpers tell me, ATNO is next big sub-penny play; STHG is being set up for a push next week, and if you can short BVTI do so, ABPI is the best short option, considering BVTI is same company, but ABPI is above $1, they just had huge news but it went nowhere on big volume…Why you ask? check insider transactions for BVTI over at pinksheets.com, 10,000,000 shares @ .60

    MMTIF wouldn’t be worth touching anyway. Right now the bid/ask 1.51 / 2.60 and the daily volume is minimal.

    I know I mentioned this yesterday, but I’ll put it out there again- is anyone watching RGN? The volume sucks, but it still sure to tank at some point..

    made some money on UCFC, checked on yahoo finance, and volume is terribly low for this stock,…. still able to cover with ease, and with pocket money

    Tim, at what price did you short EDEN? I bought at 2.42 to catch a quick gain on the spike

  14. 14timsykes

    April 18th, 2008 at 11:22 am

    didnt shor tyet, just reserved those shares in case it does decide to show signs of reversal, the first of which would be these big block sells coming in at 2.60 ish–now its gotta try to take out 2.55

    Been in DGLY since 8.05 Timmmy!! COT can kiss my ass. If there’s one thing I learned from that stock, though, is just because people with lots of money are heavily supporting a stock does not and I repeat DOES NOT mean that they have ANY IDEA what they are doing OR that the stock has ANY potential whatsoever. Shame on me for covering before their lame analyst meeting. Finally have time to read your book. I’m really liking it so far. I’ll send you a review when I’m done!

    Watch out for the weakness POZN has started showing, could be another leg down to $0.50- $1.00

    I’m short 1,000 EDEN at $2.55, article to explain why coming sooon.

    April 18th, 2008 at 12:15 pm

    I sold on my long position at $2.70

    April 18th, 2008 at 12:20 pm

    short EDEN @ 2.58

    seems like very significant overhead resistance + lack of serious buyers

    Tim,
    Is WIN worth shorting?
    For those who want to go long on nat gas, NBR broke out with volume.

  21. 21Wayne

    April 18th, 2008 at 12:32 pm

    Sorry, it is not WIN but WINS (typo:(

  22. 22Max

    April 18th, 2008 at 12:35 pm

    looking to cover 2.30-2.40 I think

  23. 23Wayne

    April 18th, 2008 at 12:44 pm

    Watch out of FEED, started a little bit weakness and chart looks it is going back down to $16 or below today.

    since the beginning of this year I aquiered HYGS, QTWW, CPST and DESC in that orther at the end of each month. I bought them because I believe in a better world, surprissingly for me my stocks went up 47% till now, thats an avarage much higher than all the market sectors I checked, including solar, which on avarage is up about 30%. I thought I was just a dreamer, glad I am not the only one.
