    Traded out of AERTA today at 3 even (45% gain in 1+ month), moved more into GRRF at 11.95.

    MVCO is holding up.

    I am keeping an eye on VSTY
    I took a big loss on GRRF (12%). The numbers which are posted on Yahoo are incorrect. This company is not as good as those numbers make it out to be. I have learned my lesson... Yahoo Finance sucks!

    I took half of the cash from the loss on GRRF and I have added to my GV position at 1.45. The new avg. price is $1.3286

    The remaining cash was put into TCX at .83

    Current momo positions:

    MVCO, avg $11.11
    GV, avg $1.3286
    TCX, avg $0.83

    I am still waiting on VSTY

                  Well, I clipped too soon, but made a good move with TCX. USLM closed at 33.97!!! Good thing I still have the other 2/3rds

                    Current MOMO positions:

                    MVCO, avg $11.11
                    TCX, avg $0.84
                    USLM, avg $29.62
                    Sold 100% of TCX this morning at .95 another great money maker... 7%. I'll be holding cash in this MOMO account until some more positions come in line or another opportunity arrises.

                    Current MOMO positions:

                    MVCO, avg $11.11
                    USLM, avg $29.62

                    Did you know that if you get 6% return on your money every week, by the end of the year, you will have doubled the intial amount. Do you understand the real value of this thread, or does my "cockyness" piss you off?

                          It's tough to not pat myself on the back when nobody else does it for me

                          Your message of caution is appreciated... it's also something that I always keep in the back of my mind. A lot of the stocks in this portfolio are low float, low volume, low mkt cap and I always have to remind myself that they can go down just as easily as they go up. On some stocks, that is why I only take 7 - 10%. On others, I have a good idea that they will hit a target price sometime in the future (usually within 2 months... sometimes much faster)

                          I do not post my targets, as I feel that would give a unfair advantage to less ethical "investors" and may hurt my chances of reaching that target by being undercut by them before my targets are met- effectively getting my butt handed to me by the "market" I look at the market as me vs. everyone else, and I want to win win win

                          I think Grebnet and I like the same kind of stocks, but I'm not sure how he determines the entry and exit points. He is good at it, however.

                          hey... did you see what KMGB did? whoopee!

                                Volume....

                                WTG.... 12% on a month is a great play imo.

                                Peanuts, Do you intentionally pick stocks with very low volume?.... What (general) size positions do you buy in these low volume plays?
                                BEEF!... it's whats for dinner!
