10 Hot Stocks That Will Make You Tear Up & Be Unable To Watch FOX Biz

Tags: Hot Stocks, Manipulation, Potential Plays

Yeah there’s lot more, but again nothing ideal to short…yet…especially all these crappy oil companies, nothing like a rising tide to lift all boats

ASIA exemplifies a slow boring breakout of a real company…makes me sick to my stomach how slow these things move, no wonder why 90% of traders lose money trading these things…blehhhh….I’ll take fake companies that move any day of the week

FORC=KYUS=HYBR
as all three are known to have been sending out spam mailers to get people to buy their crappy stocks! C’mon guys, these companies are fake–ever wonder why I can say that and get away with it? Cuz it’s the truth and the fake companies don’t wanna fight me in court! I lost $400 shorting KYUS too early (detailed post coming soon)—not because I don’t think the stock is lower 1-2 months form now, but because I’m not gonna be around much today (working on a live version of TIMtv) so I couldn’t risk a big squeeze…yup, playing it safe to teach you guys a lesson!  

These 15 Hot Stocks Are The Sketchiest Group Of Characters Ever Assembled!

Tags: Criminals, Hot Stocks, Manipulation, Potential Plays

Horrible day yesterday, didn’t make any trades, missed out on great fades/plummets on UQM SSBX and of course CNEX. Now I’m singing the pump and dump blues…and none of the following stocks compare 2 u (CNEX)

Gotta grab those easy profits cuz they don’t come about every day…there’s no room in this game for hesitation, you short just gotta short a fading fraud, somehow slip into a coma for a few days and wake up with 20-70% profits…daily blogging probly doesn’t help, you’re too close to the flame.

FORC is just your typical $90 million oil fraud sending out mailers and PRs to anyone who will listen, you wonder why it goes so gradually higher all the time? Think back to the chapters detailing 1999-2000 in my book…yup, it’s called manipulation and it’s beautiful if you have the balls ride it long, glorious if you have the patience to wait to short and scary as hell for all the amateurs in between who don’t know what’s going on.

NYNY
has lots of rumors swirling who knows and who cares who to believe, the chart is a gradual wannabe cup and handle…don’t short until it gets too steep, even then be very very careful, somebody’s got momentum

UBET is the same kind of rumor-based runup and while its chart is steeper, it’s up a whopping 75 cents off its lows, let me know when it goes from $1 to $7, then I’ll get really interested.  

9 Stocks On Fire: So Many Plays That Are Surprisingly Borrowable To Short!

Tags: Hot Stocks, Potential Plays, Story Stocks, Supernovas

Plenty of stocks in play and surprisingly plenty of borrows today too! Only thing stopping me from reserving shares in every stock I want is my damn limited buying power! So, after being very selective, I’ve reserved 500 shares of CNEX, 2000 of FPP. Also got UQM and SSBX shares but I can’t have my orders working cuz of my tiny account. Wow, I’m down here at $18k voluntarily, I can always unleash $500,000 or so amongst all these stocks, but you guys, damn, how do you live? I mean seriously, how do you live?

Basically I’m still watching everything from yesterday’s watchlist and a few more/some updated below:

QTWW could/should breakout hardcore, but given that we’re talking maybe 20-25 cents of upside here, I can’t waste any precious trades/buying power on it…sucks!

Those of you looking to short PDO and MXC so quickly are just idiots. These things have broken out nicely and are squeezing the shorts and since their connected to oil prices, there’s no telling how high they’ll go. Remember how I said I don’t like commodity plays, that they’re not your typical pump and dumps? Again, I haven’t been in the game for this long and not learned a thing or two.  

10 Stocks In Play: Where Do You Fit Into The PennyStocking Spectrum?

Remember: just cuz I suck at buying breakouts—patience and actually being around to buy-wise—doesn’t mean you’re gonna suck at it too. It’s much much much easier to buy these suckers on the way up than is it to short sell cuz it’s more fun to party than it is to inform everyone that the bar is closing and that the strippers all have STDs….that’s basically what it’s like to short these dirty scummy stocks. Below you see a wide range of PennyStocking View definition in a new window patterns from which you could and should profit…really just gotta get grounded in my DVD course so you can understand all the variables at work so you can adapt to all the evolving patterns…obviously.


LGDI
VRML

Plummeted bigtime/nicely…despite my $1,000+ in gains between LGDI and VRML, holding one week longer coulda woulda shoulda been an extra $3,000 in profits at yesterday’s closing prices! Are you beginning to understand that as long as you short these turds just as their absurd Supernova buying firestorms appear to fade, even just a little bit, there’s a whole lot of $ to be made? (and despite my 56% return over the past 6 months, anybody who has a decent grounding in PennyStocking could should would be up 100%+ (See TIM results and Supernova slide above to better understand)

NNVC
PSTI

Already began to fade…missed NNVC, thanks a lot Chuckieeeeeeeeee, PSTI so gradual, anybody find any shares to short?  

12 Hot Stocks For Manipulation Monday, Wish It Was Supernova Sunday

Tags: Breakouts, Hot Stocks, Manipulation, Patterns To Buy, Potential Plays

PSTI
Everybody and their mother is contacting me about this pump and dump to short…now that I have some capital/trades available to me this week, I might short it, but it is down $2 in 6 days and there’s really only $1 of downside left

XRM
March’s big drop was due to its debtload, now a solid earnings report has brought it back up…not a pump and dump, I’ll avoid it…for now

SSBX
It’s a friggin Bancorp! That just reeks of boredom…barely up, let e know when it go up ore than 50%, or changes its name and gets into cancer research of wind energy

APWR
Speaking of breaking wind, this guy just broke out for a second time in a few months, seems ike forever since THIS post (why I’m anti-investing), although it was about as gradual as my descent into madness, aka not all. I trust this company about as much as I enjoy pissing into a wind blower, but I respect this breakout enough not to short it…yet

VRML
Watch, it’s gonna tank below $2.50 today just to piss me off. Beautiful thing about PennyStocking
is that despite my passengers-watching-an-Arab-on-an-airplane-like patience, the longer you hold these ideal plays, usually the better. I’m fine with my 20% profit though…  

10 Hot Stocks & Other Cynical Views On The Trashy World Of Penny Stocks

Tags: Hot Stocks, Manipulation, Potential Plays

VRML Still 1,300 Shares short @ $3.75
LGDI

Both are supernovas, LGDI near its highs, but VRML still up waaay more %-wise…both have fading volume, both can still squeeze shorts even though they’ll probly fail. I’m short VRML cuz it’s up on stock promoters, ill-researched media story and best of all the company is a truly failing biotech microcrap in the same vein as REED, VION, DARA and PSTI—each of which also jumped 200%+ and have now retraced ALL of their gains (PSTI is only halfway, but give its also the newest)

VRML coulda woulda shoulda gone negative on the day, cracking the key $3.40 yesterday, but they smartly issued a fluffy PR I won’t dignify linking to (they formed a committee)(you think they don’t know that would squeeze some shorts c’mon, this is the beauty of pumping–they don’t have actual business to tie them down, their business is getting the stock up!…still, after an initial spike, very nice gradual downtrending all day, great sign, sooner or later, we’ll get some panic selling

HDSN
You can’t stop this air conditioner play (seriously) after it just reported solid earnings…good for 25 cents/share intraday peaks and valleys, if you’re into that sort of thing

OIL
Woooo $125, I don’t care. I hope it goes to $1,000, then we’ll get plenty of great oil pump and dumps and our short selling View definition in a new window profits will be that much greater when the whole world is in the midst of a crippling depression!  

A Short Seller’s Dozen: What Stocks Get Pumped, Must Come Down, Usually

Tags: Breakouts, Hot Stocks, Impatience, Potential Plays

VRML Short 1,300 @$3.75
LGDI
SUNV

Getting up bright and early, I reserved shares in all three of these stocks to possibly short today, not knowing which I’d actually short. LGDI didn’t even trade for 5 minutes and when it did, it moved slower than an under-cooked lobster. SUNV didn’t breach the key $1.20 level until the afternoon (when I had no trades left), so it was all about VRML.

I wanted to short into strength cuz it was a classic short covering rally from yesterday’s $1.75 pullback off the highs…given the magnitude of the declines and that it’s still up 300+% in a few days—on an ill-researched story thinking this near bankrupt company will do anything but go under—meant short sellers would be aggressive. Afraid I’d miss the probable pullback, I jumped the gun too early, shorting 1,300 shares at $3.75…as I watched it hang around $3.90 x $4 for another 30 min, I wasn’t very worried as the big buyer blocks were only on the bids—the wall of sellers at $4 never in danger of cracking—a clear sign of pumpers trying to scare up buyers/short covering…inevitably, the volume faded, the bids disappeared and the stock spent the day chomping gradually away at its early gains, few buy orders at the ask. I’d call it a perfect crack of sideways price action in the $3.60 range, but it still managed to finish up on the day, so it’ not totally perfect…just yet.

Despite my poor timing, I’ve got a nice $380 profit so far, I let it ride overnight cuz I think it goes under or around $3 today or tomorrow, possible big stop loss panic if it take out $3, might get to cover at $2.60-$2.75ish if I’m lucky.

VNDA
Nice gradual fade, but not my ideal PennyStocking short, too tight a chart/variables not fraudulent enough to squeeze one in

BDCO
Everyone’s goin crazy over an 18 cent gain, leme know when it gets to $3, until then jewwwww noooo  

Timmayyy’s 20 Totally Tubular Tickers To Trade Through Thinkorswim Today To Thursday

Tags: Hot Stocks, Potential Plays

LGDI
Still on watch for a break under $4, gonna be tough to do from here, today at least, actually consolidated well until the last 5 minutes…still wouldn’t be surprised to see a big 50 cent-$1 upwards spike or at least that’s what I be praying for, oh yah man!

VRML
Mistake of the millennium yesterday, still gonna be volatile

ASIA
Now that’s a breakout…PennyStocking DVD student and upcoming grandmaster Tony Ellis kindly alerted everyone to this and then proceeded to make a quick $1,200 in 3 minutes…That’s right, the DVD preaches that you should these pieces of junk on breakouts, too—just as I did with COIN back a few months ago during a live radio interview

CSIQ
Trying to do the same kind of breakout—doesn’t interest me in the least, would require waaaaay too much precious buying power

SUNV
Finally a stock that doesn’t require much buying power—but it does waste a precious trade, a double jewww yahhhh f$%# you to my friends over at the SEC for that one! Volume’s fading though…gotta crack $1.25 to have any chance  

15 Low Priced Stocks: Buy & Short Sell Some, Avoid Most, Despise Them All!

First, let’s get the fun / useless guessing game contest over with—with YHOO’s $24.37 closing price, there were 2 winners: Ann-Nan Lo $24.50 and DarkMatter $24.24—congrats guys! (UPDATE: Ann-Nan Lo has been disqualified cuz her winning guess was her second…wow, my readers are on top of things!)

Now to business, stocks with predictable charts—doubt any of these topics will get 200+ comments, but gimme a few years to set you straight. Tons of plays, gonna be handicapped yet again by the SEC pattern day trading rule—all that handicapping inspired me to write one hell of a post, which I gotta vet with a lawyer…

VNDA
Yes its bounced, but its a ton off its highs and it’s an earnings play, still watching it, doubt I’ll have the buying power to touch it, f$#@ you SEC!

LGDI
My top play for today, made $350 ayer, look to make more if and when it cracks $4.40 to the downside, could / should move fast when it cracks as that’ll put it slightly down on the day, potential to go all the way down to $4, then it’s a game of whether or not stop losses can get taken out, $4.05-$4.10 if it holds, $3.60-$3.70 if it doesn’t…and this is all of course after the probable / hopeful morning short squeeze View definition in a new window, which could / should retest highs, pleaseeeeeeee…game of chess baby, I don’t know how to play, only game I know is PennyStocking where you gotta think a few moves ahead!

SUNV
Kills me I didn’t short into yesterday’s spike, read my twitter message about it (Follow me on there to get quick messages like that), I was all set! That calls for my second f$#@ you to the SEC in as any minutes.

FEED
Lesson in why you don’t scalp these range bound suckers, use my friggin experience to your advantage you dumb Jews!  

Why Dennis Gartman Is A Classy Pump And Dumper & Some Other Hot Stocks

Tags: Breakdowns, Hot Stocks, Manipulation, Patterns To Short, Potential Plays, Short Squeezes

COIN
Yup, that old “classy” pump and dumper Dennis Gartman is at it again—re-adding this company with ZERO revenues (and even though they have PRs for everything including partnering with charities but can’t seem to find the time to put out ANY quarterly earnings PRs!)….last time he recommended this in Barorns right around the same price, the stock spiked and he admittedly sold into that strength, c’mon Garty, do your little song and dance routine again so you can pump and dump one more time! (SEC: I gotta remind you underpaid overworked fellas that original Barrons article was such a blatant case of stock manipulation—COIN was the only stock under $1 billion in marketcap). At least true bottom of the barrel penny pumpers don’t hide what they really are—they know they are scum—Gartman does—that makes him a typical industry villain!

Shorts don’t even think about it yet, yes, you might be able to scalp it, but never underestimate a scam of a company whose charts has now determinedly bottomed at $8 and $9…just not much downside here…short-term at least

BSHF
Totally screwed this one up yesterday, went short into a morning dip, looking for an outright panic, didn’t get it, 2 hours too early, seriously, so close, covered for a $90 loss…detailed post coming…when you know you have a busy day, just don’t trade—99 times out of 100, trading takes priority, but since launching this new site today was non-negotiable (and as you can see we’ve still got a ton of bugs to work out), wasting a day watching this stock wasn’t an option…stupid trade, even if it is a great example of how well shorting spa stocks works

PWSV
A spam stock breaking out higher…great example of why I take my profits quickly and don’t stick around to wait for hte FBI to bust in (they’re slow)

VM
To prevent me from trading—yes, it really is that much of an addiction—I turned my trading software off yesterday afternoon, missing this stunning beauty of fader…never say my readers ain’t smart, resident wise ass Ben Bien nailed this in the TIMforums before it dropped big–too bad he didn’t have a Thinkorswim account to short it though! Brand the chart below into your brains. Summary: solid multi-day runner, big-time short squeeze View definition in a new window/rumors yesterday, you wanna short when that squeeze starts to fade (although I don’t like rumor stocks), in the afternoon when it cracks the $4.60 range

LNG
Another stock I missed rolling over, over the painnnnnnnnn

GST
Strong little sucker, remember, don’t even think about shorting until you see the whites of their eyes!

CDY
Spiked a few weeks ago, retraced, now it’s spiking even higher…gotta be careful with these, already sucked/squeezed a few short sellers out there

KTCC
Up on strong earnings, sure there might be some retracing going on, but I don’t short small stocks that put up big earnings, obviously the odds of giant success are still against them, but they’re putting up a good fight
