Portfolio of the Week

[Milk Man]

Thanks for the replies guys. I might just have to move to the states- I reckon Kennesaw, Georgia sounds pretty good. A town where you have to own a gun. Do ya think they sell much tofu there? I dont think so..... YEEEEEEHAAAAW !!!!
N.B.- Tofu gives you man boobs because soy makes you produce more estrogen.
Itd be pretty awesome walkin around with a pair of 45's strapped to each hip. I'll have to bring my felt Akubra cowboy hat though- Id rather wear dead animal than straw anyday.

Now what about this data dump- what exactly is it and how often? Many thanks to Ernie for doing that too. A dump that dont stink; well now ive seen everything

SNAK disappoints after getting to +6% on me.... boo hoo.

I'll take EMC short right here thanks Lye.

Gotcha dude!...

How bout Ernie? Freakin me out!... I say he should sell em....

YO Spike.... Don'tcha just hate these market screwy toppy-schmoppy-tops. Your long plays fall and your short plays rise.... IT really SUCKS!!! I lose more money in these conditions than at any other time.... I think the only way to play these tops is to go completely contrarian, or go completely into cash.

all that said.... I'm REALLY wanna be bullish, I'm seeing some very nice weekly charts set up right now so I'm stalkin me some sold off goody's right now.... Might pounce today.

heh ya. I must be insane trying to short when I'm so bullish on the market. Oh boy. Glutton for punishment. Just bad timing I guess. I was so tempted to take OPLK long back at 14.95, but wanted 14.80 and then I saw cashmaker's post on EMC and it's bearishness jumped off the page at me so it was out of those two, whichever one gave the better entry and EMC won. Now of course OPLK is movin' doh!

We shall, and I just thought I'd post my uninvited opinion on your choice there. Hope that's cool.

I'd definately be sticking with UNH over SEB. UNH gap down on volume and now channel turn down is bearish. SEB might look like double bottom type support, but SEB's weekly is double top and the risk ain't worth it imo. UNH is on a weekly hunt for a boom I think.

But good luck anyway! Ha! The hide of me; criticizing one of the best POTW players when I can't even stay green! lol forgive me!

Oh I meant to say short SEB

I should have picked one of my other favorites MO, EMC or FLEX. SEB looks like all the MOMO all left at once.

[Websman]

CDV is killing my Vulcan winning streak. It's not looking good for me. I need a miracle from the vulcan Gods tomorrow.

But, at least my real portfolio is rocking!

Dude I'm lost on that.... Explain?..... (edit) Hey runner, are you showing a tripple bottom here or something? Don't know that indicator.

[IIC]

Just got back from the Trader's Expo a little while ago...It was OK...But more importantly...It was a nice mini-vacation...Shame though when your vacation consists of the stock market...LOL

Anyway, I'd like to say something that might be of some help to some...

I, like many, like to be in "Action" even when I know I should not be. Here's how I solved that problem:

If I just have to trade...which I've mostly gotten over...but sometimes I just get the itch when it's wrong(In my mind)...I just buy a small amount compared to what I normally trade...That way I'm still in w/ minimal risk...Just an idea for when you feel you just "Have To Be In"...Doug(IIC)

Lye, here is a link for info on the indicator. From what I've learned thus far it shows what is happening under the surface. Example market moved only a few points down yesterday but most stocks on my screen were getting smacked down.

I'm looking for a zero line reject and a possible pop today. We shall see!
