Lye,
CYBE, not to be confused with a couple of IBD past and or current favorites CYBS and CYB. Why is CYBE lagging so far behind in price compared to it's peers ? It seems to be superior to them in revenue , earnings growth , and lack of debt. Doesn't make sense.

Lye,
I'm sure you're a wonderful son. Just questioning why CYBE isn't priced higher.

Thanks Billy.... I'm sure you're a wonderful Mutha....jejeje.... JUST KIDDING!!!!!

Maybe CYBE is just a good value? Here's a (V-Vest) list of all the stocks in the group sorted by GRT (GRT= growth rate). You'll notice that CYBE tops the list. Look at NEWP's chart lately. I think CYBE's a better company, now it's ten times smaller, but it's better in other ways imo....

But Lye,

Doesn't that red S mean sell?

This chart looks weak.

Covered ACOR at 15.15 and exited ECOL this afternoon at 21.20.
This port is in 100 % cash for the time being.

Ski, no changes for me. Ive only got MTW RES and F open. Man that CROX got me and that little shake out was an awesome time to reenter. Oh well no biggie. PCU I messed around and missed it. Happens all the time and this is water under the bridge...

You had a fantastic week the previous week. It all averages out. Just stick to your plan. It is water under the bridge, an except for remembering the trade for trying to exclude anything that you may have done that you shouldn't have done in future trades, it should be forgotten. You cannot have it both ways. There is always going to be the good and the bad and how we deal with both.
I tend to let my guard down after a gainer just because I feel good, think I'm invincible, and lose sight of who and what I am from that euphoric feeling you get after a big winner. It's human nature.

Not to many changes today. I'm out of the short play in ACOR and exited the long position in ECOL. Here's today's sheet:

Yeah, but I'm a contrarian....

Ski,

Since I re-read your message about long term plays I've had to reconsider... anyway, drop TGE and TIII from my list because it looks like they will be LT for me.


Today, I decided to sell short SIM, and I did so at $18.31. I have also decided to take the big loss on SNTS, so I sold that piggy too. (I needed the funds to short SIM)

Ski,

I forgot to give my exit price for SNTS, it was $7.53 Seeing today's movement makes me question my decision. I wonder if I should have held?

Also, you might want to drop TGE and TIII from my list as they look to be long term holdings

It's no problem removing TGE and TIII but removing them from this short term trading portfolio doesn't relieve the loss from your point of entry and I'll put yesterdays closing price in as the exit point, even though you still own them in your long term portfolio and they are still active long term holds. Just for a point of reference and not to start a precedent of sorts. I'll give you yesterdays closing price on the both of them or if you wish whatever the time of sales price was at the time of your post if that is what you would like to do. In that case you'll need to supply me with the time of sales prices for them. I'll plug in the 7.53 exit price for SNTS tonight when I do the ports sheet. Thank you.

Sentiment Change?

..looks like it to me. The "market" was more optimistic about the election outcome judging by the rally over the past 2 days. I think reality is setting in and watch the mood of the market get much more bearish going forward into the end of the year. I'm basing this on the premise that the "market" is republican.

The sure sign is how the market will react to bad news going forward. Over the past few months nothing could get it in a bad mood. If the sentiment has changed, a loud fart in the middle-east will spook it.

that's why its very hard to trade successfully over extended periods of time, if you let your guard down for a second, you pay for it. As you say, a trader's worst enemy is him/herself. A model helps (trading plan) but its too easy to override a model. I believe the most sucessful hedge funds let their computers do the trading and try to remove human judgement from the trading process. But these guys hire the smartest, nerdiest math wizards from ivy league schools to set up these models...how do we stack up to that? I'm an engineer and had to suffer through many semesters of advanced math...there was always one skinny, pimply nerd in the class that was bored because the stuff was too easy. Now he's probably running a hedge fund somewhere, had tons of plastic surgery and is a babe magnet.

I don't think gaseous waste will offend anyone. Good point about the market being Republican. I think it takes on the slant of the party running the show. This will now be interesting as it will definitely affect Bush's power base don't you think.
