    UNwelcome TA

    Yup. I know it. It's unwelcome. But I can't resist posting on PARL's FRI action.
    Burnt toast, ya know. Smoking in the toaster right now, and it won't pop up.

      No dude! I ain't in denial about any stock. You'll recall that I sold PARL a few days back. Great call btw NBB! You-Da-MAN!!!! You are HUUUUGE!!!!

      Now I'm worried about SIRF. Very dangerous to hold this puppy thru earnings I think....

      Plus I see a "tweezer" intraday bottom. hmmmmmmmmmmm. Comments fellas on SIRF short right here?.... (reports tomorrow after the bell)
      BEEF!... it's whats for dinner!

        Lye-Baby:
        PARL--I know you aren't in denial about PARL . . . just thought you were in love, that's all. No, seriously, PARL's a great short right now.

        SIRF: support is extremely strong at $35--unless earnings are absolutely horrible, I don't know if she'll bust it. . . I am long the stock with $35 calls sold at $4.40--that's $39.40 for it . . . if support at $35 fails, no problem. Sell the $30 calls and clean up I just couldn't bring myself to short this one right now. But you could do this: the $45 calls are selling for $50--and this thing isn't going to take out the $45 marker without GooG style earnings. JMHO>

          When are you going to start "restocking" the portfolio?
          I hope to post something new soon....

          I sold ECOL too early.... I hate it when I do that.

          I'm spooked by this market Gator. I'm afraid to be a bull and I'm afraid to be a bear.... I HATE THIS MARKET RIGHT NOW!!!! Reminds me of 2000. I'd love to see a rate cut.... but on the other hand oil prices are driving inflation and I don't see a cut while that's going on. AND earnings are still coming in strong driving the market upward. This is just screwed up! I feel like becoming a day trader here.

          What's your take on this?

          I guess if ya want to play it safe.... Ca$h is a safe play dude.lol

            Covering SIRF (short) @ $37.56

            I'm out of this trade too. My gut says don't hold thru earnings here. I'll post details of all my closed "featured" trades as soon as I get time.

              Lye,
              I feel your pain. I'm sitting on 10 winners and 2 mini losers right now. My question is can I go all to cash and duplicate this performance starting from scratch or will I be kicking my own but for being so stupid.
              In the early 90's all my $$ were in mutual funds , as the market continued to rise I was getting jumpy. At DOW 3500 I called my rep, but they said to hang on and at DOW 11000 I was on top of the world. The "correction" following cost me about 40% of total holdings. HELP ME LYE !

                Lye,
                How about creating the Lyehopper Bad Times Portfolio? It could contain stocks that will thrive when everything else is going to hell. Let's see, some gold, oil, pollution , security, weapons, nuclear energy, elecricity. What am I missing?

                  And the problem with a correction in this kind of market is.... It'll hit ya quick and it's hard to react.... Ca$h BillyJoe.... Ca$h.... OR at very least, get the heck out of your margin.

                    Relax guys. Just short the QQQQs. BUY the JUN $45 puts and watch her fall down. Go pass go, collect $200

                    SHORT GM. What a dead dog.

                        CEDC? You and I both made a bundle on that one a few years ago, didn't we, Lye? Is it looking strong again?

                        BTW ... check your PM's, dude.

                          I second that opinion. I'm about ready to run for cover.
                          Just call me wimpy.

                            Sirf

                            Aren't you glad you left SIRF? You'll be more glad when earnings come in because, the way this stock is acting, it is going up.

                                Featured pick #8.... ACTU (long) @ $4.35

                                I have been buying this stock for while. I just added shares @ $4.35 so I'll make it a featured pick here. I will be holding it thru earnings tomorrow.

                                Rob just sent me a custom program to keep up with my picks. I'll post them in a few minutes.

                                Rockin'Rob, you are HUUUUGE!!!! Thanks Again!
