Steckler's Star Studded Stock Picks

Nvr

It amazes me that a $750 - $800 stock can move 3% - 5% in one day.

Goog

Probably know by know that GOOG missed...quite badly it appears. Sold my BRCM purchased a little while ago...not gonna chance how GOOG affects the broad mkt and techs...but futures are way off

[DSteckler]

GOOG halted AH.

Really? If ya wanna run with the big boys dontcha gotta accept these things?!? hehe

[spikefader]

Ya, GOOG could get uglywuggly this week.

[Websman]

Down over $67??? Sure makes for a great day if you're short.

[DSteckler]

A 60 point move was anticipated. Please see my post in the GOOG thread.

stp - again?

Well, looks like STP "broke-out", but how high or far? Perhaps it's a short, based on hardly anything being said by Bush in his speech. Part of this "alternate energy" runup has been the upcoming State of the Union speech, which sounded like a whimper.

<< Today there was a harami bar (in Western terminology, an inside day), which signals indecision between buyers and sellers. It will be interesting to see if tomorrow is inside today; if so, that will make a symmetrical triangle.



The above was from a few days ago.

Since it closed today above that 40.15 mark, are you expecting it to go higher from here? >>

Since Day 3 was not an inside day, there was no symmetrical triangle. It's now range trading so a breakout above 41 or below 35.70 will be necessary to identify direction.

One to watch

ISIL - has formed a flag after last week's gap higher. ERG a nice 262.

[DSteckler]

Wait for the pullback

VRSN, SEPR, ATHR. Large gap open higher on the last two yesterday and all three closed strong. If the market overreacts this morning and pulls back sharply, any of these three that pullback maybe worth considering.

SIGM breaking out

Mentioned this one yesterday or Monday. Volume is well above average for this time in the trading session.

Heads up on RTP

Upside island reversal pattern today. RTP is a metals processor: Au, Cu, Al, iron ore, coal and other raw materials. ROE is a sweet 33.6% and institutional holdings are only 7.8% of the float - there's plenty of room for the elephants to jump into this pool.

Fuel

A buddy told me about this one. Pretty tight range for a couple of weeks now. It's in the hot sector, too. Extremely low PSR of 0.20.

Fuel

Might want to be careful with this one Dave...this HOT sector looks to cool off today, and possibly further, after Sen Spector is beating the drum calling for excess profits tax and more regulation on the oil business. Nat gas dropped over $1 from its high today...oil was at 69 earlier and closed near 66. Big drops in energy today....caused by Washington rhetoric....but you just never know how much damage can be done by politicians
