More news from COIN today, regarding trading emissions credits.
So, their business model is:
- get paid to accept organic waste,
- use it to create fertilizer,
- get paid for the fertilizer, and
- get paid for preventing the waste from sitting in landfills.
Welcome to the 21st century.

Due probably partially to being pissed about the option repricing, I dumped SIGM this morning at $42.40 for a 7.8% loss from my buy point at $46. At the time, it looked like the market was just bouncing from the low open, and for all I could tell, everything including SIGM would fizzle and run down. This didn't turn out to be the case, and SIGM is now back up nicely to around $45.50. You know what, though? I'm still glad to be out of it, because I now do not trust the execs to act in the best interests of the shareholders.

SIGM execs now claiming they are having to sell because there is a narrow window between option vesting and expiring. I have not read all the details of the SEC filings, etc., but this just smells to me. Glad that I dumped this for that reason, and also that it's now down to around $30.

COIN is a day traders dream altho I've only traded it once.

SDTH...#1 on the IIC 100 to off the list...Actually, I knew that would happen and I probably should've posted that altho it probably wouldn't have made a difference...Sorry about that if you were looking at the list

This makes twice for me. I really don't want to get stuck on the wrong side of this one.

No problem, Doug. I wasn't looking at the list.

Geez...Over 30,000,000 investors looking at the list each week...and you missed it...I'm hurt

Actually, I know ahead of time which ones will be gone or have major changes in the ranking...But it is not a paying job so I don't post nightly updates

if over 30,000,000 are viewing your list every week you should be actively marketing it as a subscription service. 1000 out of 30,000,000 at $20-25 a month would make you comfortable. half that would be a big plus to your yearly income. that's a big number Doug. are you absolutely sure of that 30,000,000?

Bought some EXAC at $26.90.

Bought some WATG today at 9.43.
Tried to get some for 9.20, but "they" started playing games with me.

Dumped this at $9.45 for fractional gain before commissions.
Just seems to be going nowhere and volume is drying up.

sirtuck, I don't know about ski, but I wouldn't. Even if they meet, estimates look to be for steadily decreasing revenue and earnings.

I've been raising a little cash yesterday and today in anticipation of an opportunity to jump into QID again for another leg down in the indexes. Hence the dumping of WATG, COIN and SDTH. Still holding a small position in NTWK, plan to be patient with it, and some QMAR until it gets within 5% of the acquisition algebra. The EXAC bought today doesn't seem to follow the overall market.
Anyway, the point is, I'm looking for the market to take another beating soon, and I wanted to raise cash a few days early if possible, so there won't be any trading restrictions on it.

This is a nasdaq chart that I marked up about a week ago.
The idea here is that the index is forming a symmetrical triangle with likelihood of a break to the downside once everyone realizes that it's not going to rally.
