    BIG 20 list

    BillyJoe,

    Every scan I run, LCAV comes up.

    Well, I think that in two weeks time, the whole Big 20 will be up again.

    BillyJoe, what do you think about LSCP? Has it made any of your scans?

      New-born,
      For some reason LSCP didn't make my screen, but it must have been close. All earnings and sales must be increasing at an increasing rate compared to previous quarters just to keep my list from getting too big.LCAV has been on the list for months. It looks like they had a split along the way.

          It is going to be a HUGE year for all of us on this board. We suffered thru another down day and the late day selling was a real bummer.
          With a positive attitude and support from each other on this board, it will all work out for the better.
          Live long and prosper Websman.

              Webs...IMO you are a good guy...Good Guys/Gals know they are good...You don't need to be told.

              I know there are many women here at Mr. M...you may be offended by the term "Gals"...No offense intended...It is a habit...My wife is from Belize..."Gals" is an affectionate and respectful term there...habits die hard after almost 20 yrs.

              Guys...well they don't care...One of my 3,156 "Sayings To Live By" is " I don't care what you call me...As long as you call me"!!!

                Webs, IIC nailed it.

                And while I think of it, I mentioned LU recently. Oh what a few days can do

                  Thanks Spike. We will wait a day or two to see what LU does. Maybe we'll get a bargain price!

                    LU and Jim Cramer

                    Webs,

                    LU is a Jim Cramer recommend. That means he's down on the stock from where he bought it, and is pleading with the public to buy the stock so he can get out.

                    One thing about LU: people trade the stock. What is the daily volume, 50 million shares or so? Another SIRI. At least it is liquid.

                    Best of trading to you. If Spike gives us the call, I might jump in there with you. Misery loves company.

                      LSCP: Was a cup and handle pick I had that jumped up $3.30 on Monday, another $2.65+ on Tuesday, and has since plummetted all the way back to $30 yesterday and today. There is a way to play these failed breakouts: it is called the Turtle strategy. Wait 20 days past the breakout day, and then trade in the same direction as the stock is moving. This system takes into account that most breakouts are failed breakouts.

                      • Breakout system only works well in bull market. That's the biggest lesson I learned last year. Buying support (like Spike's system) works well in weak market.

                          Today I bought AAI. Airtran is a discount airline company who's stock has been beat down since December. Realizing that this is a risky play, I took a small position and am setting my stop at 5%.
                          My buy price is $9.59 and my 5% loss point is $9.11. If all goes right I will sell AAI at $11.02.
                          Whether I win or lose, I have a plan in place and will be happy knowing that I followed that plan. With a 5% stop, I will not take a significant loss. $11.02 gives me a 15% gain and will be a fair profit.

                          I will keep the rest of my porfolio in cash until the market straightens out.

                            AAI afterhours action sucks.... We'll see how beat down it gets tomorrow. I'm looking at the bright side though. If I have to sell at a loss, I'll have one losing trade out of the way. The winners will come!

                              Yes, afterhours may suck, but I do have some good news!

                              From weather.com boat offshore forecast...
                              "SUNDAY...SOUTHEAST WINDS AROUND 10 KNOTS. SEAS 2 FEET. BAYS AND COASTAL WATERWAYS SMOOTH TO A LIGHT CHOP. .MONDAY...SOUTHEAST WINDS AROUND 10 KNOTS. SEAS 2 FEET. BAYS AND COASTAL WATERWAYS SMOOTH TO A LIGHT CHOP. .TUESDAY...SOUTHEAST WINDS 10 TO 15 KNOTS. SEAS 2 TO 3 FEET. BAYS AND COASTAL WATERWAYS A LIGHT CHOP."

                              What does this mean for Webs? This means a day on the Gulf catching Grouper big enough to pull you over the side of the boat. 70 degree weather and calm seas. The weekend is looking good. Time to gas up the boat!

                                Webs,

                                Did you read the analysts' recommends at Yahoo finance on this stock? Downgrade on 5 Jan 2005 to sell by Merrill Lynch. Sorry.

                                On the other hand, I told Spike about the downgrade of one of Mr. Market's top five, and it jumped up .22 on the news . . . . And it was Merrill Lynch that downgraded SIRI . . . .
