I have 22 consecutive profitable trades of 15% or better. How is this possible? Every day there are hundreds of stocks setting new highs, no matter what happens in the overall market. Many of these stocks are still at very reasonable valuations. Afraid of buying stocks at their highs? Think of it this way: a new high is really a future floor for companies with solid financial underpinnings. Quantitative momentum modeling makes it easy to identify stocks that can continue this upward momentum trend. Why does this happen? It's really very simple..ask me about what investors and cows have in common. I am $$$ MR. MARKET $$$. I AM HUGE!!! Bring me your finest meats and cheeses. You can join in on the fun.

Oh man I thought HOV was cheap at $1.30, today it's at $1.07. Will they go BK? Looking at my portfolio it's like looking at a boiling lobster (all red). Yike!
[QUOTE=wooish;111187]NYB tanked after earning report.
I've been watching it make a base along this recent level. It could be forming a cup base as a cup and handle pattern and if this is the bottom, which started back in August, it probably is a good time to start looking to make a entry and pick some up. But it's a very volitaile market now and you cannot count on anything.
My little neghborhood bank, FCZA, has sent me a letter saying they are resuming a dividend payment after a 3 year absence. Maybe that explains the 12% gain this week.
NJR is rocking today. up 1.12 @ $46.52. If it keeps this up and gets around $48/50 range you can expect another 3 for 2 or 2 for 1 split. That would bring it down to around $25-26 range and another great opportunity for an entry. I'll keep you posted. This is as good a stock and trade opportunity as I have every had and have made a ton of money on it over the past 30 yrs. or so. I've always implored my friends to start accumulating it right after a split and it's getting ready to do it again. Worth a look guys and never to late to start accumulating and setting it up in a drip. It's been almost 35 yrs. for me now and with it in a DRIP account I have been letting the divys ride and turn back into shares. Never once in 35 yrs. have I taken a nickel out of it. It has created quite a pile for me. Every couple of years it splits and then runs back up again to split again. Just like clockwork and as close to a sure thing as I know.
Great news, Ski. I should have bought when you first mentioned it, but I'm also raking it in although 30 some odd years behind you. Why can't we find 4 or 5 more like it?
I haven't been trading as much as I usually do but I have been tracking a few stocks. I mentioned one in particular awhile back when it was around $1.07 / $1.10 range. Closed Friday at $1.58. That's a 45% gain to date. Here are two more that I have been tracking but have not bought yet. But I think come Monday a.m. I will get my feet wet with both of them. GCA and TASR. I'll post a chart on both later on tonight or tomorrow. Here's another sure bet. NJR is up over $47 again and getting close to where it will split again 2-1 or 3-2 usually. Buy on the split and put it away somewhere dark and wait another couple of years and do it all over again. Ask Billyjoe how good this one is. Strictly a looooong term hold for the retirement acct.
Ski,
As of today my two accounts holding NJR, both retirement accounts, are up 42.46% and 47.32%. These numbers don't take into account the number of free shares earned from reinvesting dividends. For example, another stock paying over 11% dividend, IDE, in my retirement fund is down more than 15% from my purchase price and shows a loss on the books but with reinvesting I'm actually to the good.
Check out the two charts I posted on GCA and TASR. I like them both but TASR looks like a great longer term trade. And both are quite cheapo right now.
