    aha, a challenge

    That's OK, I'd rather interact with critical thinkers. Would you care to do this publicly or privately? I'd prefer privately because some of the trades I make are on low volume / low float stocks and the price can be manipulated by others. Some think I'm crazy for thinking this, but I feel more comfortable about my trades when I keep them to myself. Maybe another thread should be created for some of the others (rather than use Stenzrob's thread)... I'll let you create the thread if you want.

    You're probably right. Some people swear that fresh ideas are needed and innovation and expansion are the best ways to maintain that cutting edge character to some of the top entities.

I'm operating with a decent amount an I know where every penny is at every moment an all the particulars that go with the trades.
    I don't know to what you are referring. Did I say that I forgot something? All my trades are documented in my Ameritrade account. I do my own taxes each year, so I know what my capital gains are. I'm impressed that you know where all your money is at all times... I don't do that, I'd probably lose my hair at a much faster rate if I did. Like I said, I have a real day job, so my ability to watch all my portfolios at the same time and know what's going on with each stock is a tough thing to do. Some intra-day trading opportunities arrise and I'll take time out of the day to do that, or if I'm not too busy at work, I'll come to this site and also periodically check my ST and MT accounts. Trade triggers work well for me.

    HAHAHA Thanks for the words of encouragement. I hear that Starbucks give benefits for part time workers. I can pour coffee just as easily as I manage the sales for my co. Trading each day might not be best thing for me (the extent of my family), but a man can have dreams, right?

    • So, back to MY positions. News from FTEK today about more orders in the US. This is in addition to their burgeoning business in China and elsewhere in Asia. Looks like this will open up. FTEK is currently my largest position.

        looks interesting. I'll be cautiously watching it. Looks like a small gap way back at 11 and change, but I'm not sure if it's on its way to fill that gap or if the news will catapult the price.

            Jumped back out of SIM again at $7.10. 4.4% in one day. I don't like the way the volume seems to have completely dried up here. Made three round trips in the last two weeks for gains of 5%, 11% and 4.4%.

            Would have been nice if FTEK had held onto those early gains, but I'm not trading that one.

              Stenzrob,

              I am now trading on PACT. Nice volume, big price swings, good company. I'm in at 7.60 today.

              Like SIM, it may also look good as a LT investment

              • FTEK is moving nicely. All my stocks are up today except PARL, VTIV about 1%, CRYP about 2%.

                Just bought some PTEN for $31.20. My value screen shows this severely undervalued, and the chart shows MACD crossover and increasing volume heading up. Oops, I forgot to check the TRIX!

                      Stenz,
                      Cramer was heavily touting FTEK on Mad Money last night.

                        Thanks billyjoe. I still like it anyway.

                        • For the unusually curious, my current approximate portfolio weighting:
                          25% FTEK
                          20% PTEN
                          20% VTIV
                          15% PARL
                          15% CRYP
                          5% stranded in GMCC that I forgot to sell before the SEC shut them down.

                            Speaking of stranded stocks, check out DHB.. It's been halted for a few days. Looks like the CEO is about to get his reward for ripping off the shareholders.

                              Stenz,
                              I'm not a big fan of Cramer's, but I wrote down 6 symbols he was high on yesterday at 6 P.M. Here's what they did today. I'm not cherry picking, these are the only one's I wrote down . The first 5 he called his top orphan stocks. Hardly covered by analysts.

                              BOOM +17.87%
                              ELRC +4.06
                              NTCT +6.13
                              LAYN +10.30
                              EGY +11.48
                              FTEK +4.85

                                Nice work BillyJoe.... Looks like they all gapped up this morning too. Some continued upward and some sold down....

                                Now we need a "Crammer Watch thread" so we can daytrade Crammers picks. Remember GEHL after it gapped up when he mentioned it as an ethanol play?lol.... Would have made a great short about two days later.
