I might’ve told you once, twice, three times a lady…I have some big plans for LiveStock…but to pull it off, I’m gonna need your help cuz the fun really only starts after I get enough viewers/sponsors to make this thing into the interactive behemoth it’s meant to be.
To start, click the link below to embed the LiveStock video player in your Facebook profile
http://apps.facebook.com/mogulustv/?channel=livestock
It’s just like embedding a Youtube video except the Mogulus video player is better cuz this one player plays and archives all future shows….yeah, it’s cool. And, if you wouldn’t mind sending that link to 1,000 of your closest Facebook friends, I’d be much obliged…really gotta make this thing go viral as then the possibilities are endless…
And LiveStock even has its own social network which you can check out right HERE and join right HERE. I encourage you all to join—and to send to your friends to join—because that way everybody can submit questions and tickers ahead of time and I can let you know of all the crazy stuff we’re planning to make this the single most exciting thing in finance (not that it’s very tough considering my blocks-of-wood-like competition)
LiveStock is just the next step that pushes us far far beyond that of all these random BS stock picking websites and sites that focus on researching companies’ fundamentals. Here I want you to learn/understand all the variables and players cuz they’ll keep doing their thing and once you truly understand the basic set of rules you can minimize your risk/losses and profit repeatedly. Just take it one trade, one pump at a time…
Now you can Twitter any questions/comments to TIMhelp and obviously you can follow TIM on twitter too!

OME another of my faves for an upswing trade, at/near 52 week high, looking to break thru $15 resistance, if it does should be looking for $20 soon, IMO.
AI you’re being attacked because you’re trading like a newbie. I’m seeing a lot of newbie type trades here that should not be happening based on Tim’s teaching mixed with your own experience.
Going short ACOR at 28 because it was up 7 points on the day isn’t smart trading. GMXR was up 7 points on Monday followed by 5 more yesterday. Today it’s flat. It’s a natural gas play. Just proving a point that just because something goes up parabolic you don’t short it.
LGND had a consolidation day yesterday. Even though you might have scalped a few pennies on a short it wasn’t smart to be on the short end of a stock that won FDA panel approval 16-0. MXC short because oil is down. Stock has low volume and oil plays aren’t hot today.
LGND over 4 tomorrow. Mentioned it at 3.35
MXC under 36 by today. Mentioned as a good short at 39
JRJC was never a buy last week even though it beat earnings because the stock didn’t close at the days high. I remember it was me bringing this pick up here and sadly a few people bought intraday.
ROYL could go either way at this point. The money as I said was made buying 1 minute before yesterdays close and selling today in the morning. Wouldn’t short or go long. I suspect it will have another run but it’s really just flipping a coin and trades shouldn’t be based on uneducated guesses.
DGLY another upswing trade, bought 90 @ $9.52 yesterday. Sorry I don’t have the short picks you guys want, but it’s been a good day for the sniper6 so far and think this one wants to break out too. Next stop $15 if it cracks $11.00
ICO another of my fave upswing trades, looking to break out, all of coal is on fire (pun intended). Good Luck everyone!
OK that’s all I got for now. Somebody throw me a bone… c’mon! Looking to short into an afternoon fade.
Hell yeah my trade was moronic, my timming has been exactly opposite on everything long or short the past week, sucks. time to watch the dvd over again. my overall losses are 3.5% from the end of may when i started shorting until now… i guess thats the only good(ish) news
If IMB hits 2.05 it’s a buy. It’s a few pennies away. Could be a gapper. Will get even more pumping at the Lion now that it’s got momentum. A dozen people buying a few K shares will expand it on the radar screen.
NOG, QRCP, HKN could all run if they take out day’s high
I”m long all three. AM I DIVERSIFIED?
ACOR hits 30. The majority of traders here called 30 for today. Congrats my friends. If we work as one unit we become very credible. 2 points. If you bought 1K shares before yesterdays close that’s 2K in profit. You make 1 trade like that a week that’s 100K on the year. Yes, chump change to many of the big traders but that still puts you over 95% of the population.
Don’t trade for the sake of trading. If there isn’t a play do nothing. Sometimes you’ll go days without having a solid opportunity.
The best trade in the market right now is LGND. Talent to being a good trader is seeing something develop before the herd. 3.86 is the big break out number for my pick.
I am weak.. I just couldn’t help it…
Shorted ACOR at 30.14…
Look at ROYL pop again. Up 90 cents in the last hour. I had a hunch this was going to do a U-Turn back up. MXC and PDO scewed many shorts during their big runs. Patience is key. Don’t short these hot plays during the first few days of their spikes.
If you want a solid short for today the two best fades will be LNG and MXC. You cannot be hurt shorting either. I’d put a stop loss limit at the day high though as nothing ever goes as planned. The minute you get cocky in the market is when you get sucker punched. Fear the market and she shall treat you right. That’s not to say you should trade scared because if you trade like a whimp your portfolio will show it.
GRO has the signs of the next supernova. Keep on eye on the close. This flirts with the high you could be looking at a 10 stock tomorrow. Massive volume…..
can anyone tell me the cd# and time for a fade on dvd pennystocking?
TT, thanks for the heads up on GRO. Looks like a solid breakout. I may buy into the close but I’ll wait and see how it’s doing in the last hour
After this morning’s flurry, NTI’s been totally dead. No trading for the past hour.
I stand corrected. Just had a little flurry a few minutes ago. This thing just wants to hover around $14 and not make a move either way.
ok. newbie question., I’m looking at GRO chart and T&S, .. how do you guys see a breakout.. what do you see in order to tell that a stock might break out or not?
i’ll take a stab at that one TomT, and please anyone correct me if i am wrong! I think first it is a pump on another website. second volume is up, and i think that the breakout above 2.05 is the most important… WAIT for the break out is key… don’t anticipate… W A I T. I think. Right? Wrong?
GRO is hitting 7 times average volume. Stock is up 35% in the last 2 days. Experience is the best teacher for potential breakouts. Even if GRO closes at the day highs on volume this doesn’t mean it will continue its spike up tomorrow. Many times these get sold off next day which is why if things don’t go as planned you sell immediately at pre-market or at open. A good sign if a stock will continue its rise into tomorrow is AH action. ROYL was up 80 cents afterhours which was a positive signal going into today.
OOOps! my bad,,, wrong stock. AHHHHhhh forget i said anything about GRO… Sorry
Nobody’s playing SPDE? Come on people, somebody give an opinion. This thing is up over 100% and I have shares borrowed. Anybody have any ideas about how far up/down this thing is goin?
brent, were you talking about IMB?
y
any comments on ENT, guys?
SPDE is the type of pump n’ dump that could be a multi-bagger in a very short period of time with a 10 million cap. Good alert.
I suspect the stock will close in on the day highs and get major momo tomorrow. When the markets tumble I notice a spike in low volume pump n’ dumps. Traders have to play something. These are given more attention when nothing else is going up.
SPDE, looks risky to play right now long or short. No edge either way.
We’ll see what happens with SPDE. It peaked at $3.25 but has faded all the way back to $2.50 as I write this. A lot can happen in the next few hours, but even if it did finish strong into the close near its high, I’d be too worried about a major selloff the next morning. This thing nearly doubled in a single day.
It’s hard to call Icahn a moron but he is on in his older days. The greedy SOB expected to buy 60 million shares at 25 average through european leaps that expire in 2010 via ML then replace the Yahoo board with his own to accept the offer for $33 that has been pulled by MSFT. Talk about getting senile. He’s hit some clunkers lately. Motorola and a bid for Circuit City. He definitely has lost his touch as has Kirkorian with his Ford offer. MGM is getting ripped this year. Kirkorian also made a pitch for 20% of TSO for $70 that was rejected by their board. LOL TSO traded at 23 a few months later saving him hundreds of millions by accident. Don’t follow them just because they are billionaires was the purpose of this post. They can make big mistakes just as your average retail joe.
Thx - TommyTim .. and brownie point for brent for trying..
LOL thx. i needed that lol
Just took a closer look at GRO. These guys have a bunch of lawsuits against them.
NTI, still barely hanging onto $14
YngvaiMalmsteve.. what would that mean.. whats ur input
seems like i am the only one (short) in ENT
News may not mean anything. But I’m on the fence about buying the GRO breakout, and learning about that tips me in favor of not buying and finding a better play.
Tim, chk the chart out on SPDE, does this look like a good short?
ACOR $31s coming!!
afternoon squeeze on royl?
pulled the trigger and got 150 GRO @ $6.85.. holding overnight.
Nice squeeze here on ROYL, watch for HOD to see if it can break it
GRO looking solid. Tomorrow should do 5 million plus shares and touch 10. Making new intraday highs last hour of trading. Last 5 minutes is the most important though.
GRO surging…still might buy it into the close today
nHOD ROYL
Back in ROYL at 9.70 looking like a good move should be a hold overnight we’ll see how the last few mins of trading go.
NTI cracks me up….clinging by its fingers to $14
Tomorrows monsters are SPDE and GRO. I still stand by my LGND as a good 1-2 week hold. The other 2 are 1 day pump n dumps.
Look at ROYL squeeze the shorts. Followed MXC and PDO chart, same pattern. A fake fade then a monster surge.
I’m buying into GRO if it can surge past $7.40 in the last 10 minutes or so…just like ROYL surged in the last 10 minutes yesterday
First trade, in for GRO @ 7.26
Tommy Tim thanks for GRO, I pickup 500 @7.15. I was comtemplating ROYL earlier and held off and cancelled my order @ 9.62 because I had to leave. guess I shoulda left well enough alone.
I’m not buying into GRO. Don’t like the way it’s finishing off here
ROYL is the nest MXC
No plays for me today. Still holding my NTI short position.
QRCP HKN and NOG all closed @ HOD. QRCP and HKN have nice golden cross formations just like ROYL before it went supersonic.
Tough one on ROYL. Can’t win em all. ROYL was a buy on the break of 10.55. Good 5% return. The intraday high from the morning. If you follow the open, day lows, and day highs it can save you a lot of pain. You won’t time the lows or highs but you will scalp guaranteed profits instead of guessing red or black at the roulette table.
Call me crazy, and I didn’t buy the end of day close on ROYL, but this one could keep running.
Let’s watch the AH action on GRO. Hopefully it can trade higher than the day highs as a good indication for tomorrow. If things don’t go as expected have a price you’re willing to cut losses at. Don’t ride these down.
Whoa, bad negative action on ROYL AH. Yikes! GRO is up a little though.
Tim, I am really impressed with how fast you are improving your site.
One small suggestion that I guess is pretty easy to implement based on my it experience, which consists of excel and super mario bros, when we click any of your blogs, it only shows the first 40 comments, then you have to scroll down the page and click “see all comments” to see the last ones (that are most of the time more than 40).
Would be better to be able to see all the comments from the moment you first click on the blog.
Thanks for this site, who knew how many more years it would have taken me to find out what i am learning here (and on your dvd, you can hire me to do the spanish version)
I went into the close short 300 of NTI, 100 short of acor shorted at 30.14 200 fpp shorted a few days ago at 4.85 and 100 cred shorted few days ago at 15.75.
Beat me with a stick, but the oil squeezes are going to be over soon, oil is not going anywhere higher soon and there wil be no more fuel for the crappy oil hype, in the meantime I’ll seat tight.
Playing patient with NTI after its first down day and superman nowhere to be seen.
Next weekend I’ll have plenty of time and will start playing with all possible scan systems.
Market is closed, back to study.
I’m getting more and more picky about the trades I enter, which is a good thing. Just been burned too many times over the past month.
It will be interesting to see what happens to NTI tomorrow. Will it pull a KYUS with the red day-green day then tank action, or will it consolidate at this level?
Got some GRO as well. Hopefuly it gaps up. I hope the sellers finish with SINO soon. I want to hop in for another big run.
still around getshorty
if i post too much this thread criticizes me
if I am quiet this thread gets suspicious
i understand that you are all going for short scalps
hope you get them, doesnt change my belief in what i do
in many cases we can both be correct
Good Luck
wassup Superman.. like Tim said., we are honor that you visit us here.. so what is your call on Royl and SPDE for tomorrow. is it too late to buy in AH.
I wouldnt ever advise to chase……SPDE i was in at approx $2 average on the news……ROYL has been a great trader and it seems like it will gap….traded it a few times today but didnt take it home
Superman…I made a nice 2k today long NTI. I trade em both ways.
I had some thoughts of shorting 1000 shares HYHY into the close on its first red day…but I don’t like how this thing gaps up and down by 20 cents or so. If it happened to gap up on me in the morning, I’d be down $200 in an instant. So decided against it.
nice job Tony,,,,, I love the plastic waste to crude oil tech as well as the biodegradable plastics division……the corrosion division has solution to bug problem for the oil gas industry….alot to like and alot of green social funds may buy in imo
may take time to play out like TAYD,,,,I am sure there will be scalps both ways along the way up
TAYD had nice bounce back today - havent sold a share
Superman is right. Damn if you do and damn if you don’t. The top guys at the lion have a lot of enemies because of envy in my belief. Sykes had the same problem at elitetarder. They’d rip this guy to shreds yet he’d stay cool as an ice cube and respond back to the insults with class. This I have to respect as I respect how Superman has handled himself here in the face of criticism.
In trading, everyone is comfortable with his own strategies. I personally wouldn’t touch NTI as a short. It’s very low float with a huge spread. You can’t really do massive volume and it has no direction. Seems to recover its losses rather quickly. To each his own though and GL to all.
Think positive in life.
encouraging post TommyTim, I appreciate it
OT - I own a Hummer H2 - feel like I am going to get attacked with all the negative press on Hummer today LOL….need to get a prius as a second car
But doesn’t the same argument apply to buying a low floater? They can recover their gains just as quickly as they can recover their losses. It doesn’t take much buying to prop them up, but it also doesn’t take much selling to bring them down. I’d be just as nervous holding a long position overnight on a low floater as I would holding it short. Because if the low floater tanks (like PDO), and you have all these sellers trying to get out at the same time (like what happened with PDO when it came down from almost $30), it’s like a ton of people all trying to get out a small door at the same time (as described by some one a Yahoo message board).
DAMn.. my TOS has finally done the transfer from my old account.. and now I’m frozen NOW.. DMAN DAMN DAMN….. now I can’t trade anything for tomorrow morning.. so I hope GRO will hold UP thur the day or day(S).. sux
YngvaiMalmsteve, In theory that would be true but the fact is that low floaters are more difficult to borrow shares against to short making it harder to get as much selling pressure as a stock with shares readily available to short. NO position got out today at 14.80 and don’t plan on re-entering.
Hi Superman, thats the course of being a superhero, you’ll be criticized either way…
I can see your point on that. On the other hand, the vast majority of the stocks that Timmay and others have shorted are hard to borrow, and they’ve been successful (assuming they follow the rules, that is!).
I agree completely, Tim’s strategy is like free money. I’ve made tens of thousands of dollars shorting these stocks. I’m just saying that when the momentum switches from negative to positive there is no selling pressure on these stocks because there are no new shorts and then shorts have to cover creating an imbalance. That is why TIM is so quick to cover. Be careful holding these stocks short too long. A small bounce can become a massive short squeeze. I’m speaking from experience.
I know… I know…. fundamentals don’t drive penny stocks BUT press and opinions do.
June 3 (Bloomberg) — Billionaire investor George Soros said the record oil prices weighing on the economy are the result of a “bubble” caused by speculation from index funds and a tight balance between supply and demand.
“The bubble is superimposed on an upward trend in oil prices that has a strong foundation in reality,” Soros said in testimony before the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation.
This types of news will make people get scared to put more money into crappy oil plays, those who short crappy oils would be rewarded…. Keeping crappy oil short position. Will double when there is a breakdown
Gotcha. That answer totally makes sense.
good debate guys, glad things didnt become personal..i just did a funny new post, cant link from this mobile phone though
getshorty careful shorting anything oil related. Oil isn’t even close to being a bubble imho. Just look at the chart, perfect uptrend with a few pull backs to trendline. Then compare it to the nasdaq in 1999, that was a bubble. Plus I’m sure President Bush would like nothing more than to go back to Texas wearing a J.R. Ewing hat touting that under his administration OIL was $200/barrel. He’d be a freaking GOD in TEXAS, Hell Jimmy Carter is and he only got OIL to $80. I grow up around the oil business and count the number of times I’ve heard these Oilman say they wish they had old Jimmy back in office.
Mark, regarding SPDE did you not read this?

I,ve talked about former 0 volume stocks a few times
SPDE is an awesome example plus I talked about
Mark ,
Where did you borrow SPDE cause I couldn’t find any on 4 brokers.
Thanks
Just took a closer look at GRO. These guys have a bunch of lawsuits against them.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
It’s a daytraders dream who really cares about any stinkin’ lawsuits?
“SPDE, looks risky to play right now long or short. No edge either way.”
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The risk/reward was huge after it crossed $2 at the open!!
Mike13th,
When I made that post about SPDE, SPDE had already made its run. Yes, SPDE was an awesome play at the open (wish I had been in your chat room to catch it). I was talking about later in the day. If you’re someone with a small account who has to limit his daytrades and be very choosy about his plays, playing SPDE later in the day was a lot more risky. That’s what I meant.
