Why Low Priced Stocks Crush High Priced Ones aka I Love Frauds & Failur
2008-04-10 19:17:00 Let the records show (CRY) and (NOG) as Exhibits A and B, whose charts I’ve posted HERE and HERE, respectively. Both have gone in the direction I predicted—CRY higher on the breakout and NOG lower after going vertical—but I haven’t touched either one.

5 Stocks In Play Right Now: Day Trading Charts For One And All!
2008-04-10 14:51:00 Yesterday I posted charts I was watching without commentary, thinking–or hoping–you guys were beginning to understand this game…other than 1-2 correct answers, the lot of you are still lost…tells me I’ve got a lot more work to do! That’s fine, bring it, one opportunity at a time…here’s today’s watchlist in order of the likelihood of me playing them: (COT) Multi-day breakdown if and when it cracks $3.25, several failed tries now, scary scary stock to short…got me thinking that even if it does crack, it might still bounce…we’ll see (NOG) Who says the 3rd up day of a big runup is usually a down day? Well, I do…but not when it’s during a multi-month breakout on solid news with a solid base just $2 below…last time this thing spiked, it jumped 55%, that would put a similar spike at $11..before shorting, wait to see the whites of their eyes! … [visit site to read more] ShareThis More About: Stocks , Play , Trading , Charts , Day Trading
Hard To Borrow Stocks: Short Sell What You Can, Only When Key Prices Are Br
2008-04-10 01:44:00 All of a sudden there’s a ton of crap stocks looking perfect for PennyStocking: (AGEN), (COT), (PSTI), (GBRC.PK), (CNOA.OB) and (NCEN.OB). Why then did I choose only to short PSTI…because it was the only one with borrowable shares! As I posted towards the end of THIS post, PSTI’s pattern is the EXACT chart pattern that made me a millionaire by age 22 and it’s why TIM is up now 46% since November 2007. Can’t short more than 10,000-30,000 shares (this time around at least, liquidity willing you can sometimes get up to 100,000 shares), but ideal for smaller traders/investors in the $2k-$100k account size. … [visit site to read more] ShareThis More About: Stocks , Hard , Sell , Short , Borrow

Why Bess Levin Is The Only Financial Commentator You Should Ever Listen To
2008-04-09 17:59:00 Big Picture Barry Ritholtz likes getting quoted in the press…trust me, I know the feeling, I also went through that phase…but what good does it do? Everything the senile-old-man-esque financial press covers has soooo many variables, sooooo many moving parts, sooooooo many time lags involved and most importantly, can be framed any number of ways. It’s all just one big guessing game where you HAVE NO EDGE WHATSOEVER, so luck and leverage aside, you can NEVER increase your wealth substantially. You know my take, small investors and traders need to stop worrying about the news/macro/popular issues and learn to profit from more niche-oriented/inefficient hence predictable stuff like PennyStocking! That’s where the big % returns lie–no leverage needed–and if you really want financial gossip, don’t turn to CNBC, just visit Dealbreaker for some Bess Levin commentary…at least she’s funny. … [visit site to read more] ShareThis More About: Financial , Listen

The Most Thorough And Glowing Review Of PennyStocking Yet
2008-04-08 22:59:00 I know many of you wish I wouldn’t promote my book An American Hedge Fund and my 6-hour instructional trading DVD PennyStocking so hard, but then again, you’ve no idea the number of dumb/similar questions I get on a daily basis—which actually inspired me to get into this biz–so getting people to buy these products not only helps pay my bills (I have no problem admitting that because I believe it’s exceptional value in that it pays for itself in 1-2 successful trades), but it also makes my job explaining everything exponentially easier. So, my apologies to those smart enough not to need any background info./training, this post goes out to the many of those who do. Over the past few weeks, my instructional trading DVD PennyStocking Package—which comes with a 60-day money-back guarantee (minus a small restocking fee cuz restocking is a bitch) and includes a 220-page instruction manual and autographed copy of my book An American Hedge Fund—has gotten some damn...

Hey SEC, Punish Stock Manipulators Like CNBC Not Small-Time Traders
2008-04-08 20:21:00 There’ll come a time when the SEC will do away with absurdities like the pattern day trader rule in favor of holding accountable entertainment-masquerading-as-reality outfits (WWE, CNBC, WSJ etc.) and their fake-stars (The Rock, Cramer, Journalists, etc.) for the damage their games cause…but it is not this day. For now, you must learn to profit from the circus that if the financial media industry…case in point, the CNBC-caused morning spike in (AGEN). After a brief TV mention and naively optimistic online article, thousands of CNBC-faithful bought in, thinking the cancer news (on which the stock was only up 20% on the day beforehand, aka not big news) was big-time. … [visit site to read more] ShareThis More About: Time , Stock , Small , Traders
6 Stocks In Play: Why Using Varying Time Frames Is So Crucial
2008-04-08 14:56:00 Here are 6 stocks I’m watching—notice the charts use varying time frames…in order to put recent price action into perspective and to better understand how/if history will repeat and get the appropriate resistance/support levels, you gotta see how the stock fared the last time it surged so quickly/neared such prices…judging by the looks of these setups, probly won’t be any ideal trades today…what’s a stalker to do?

How To Predict 10% Daily Price Moves With Relative Ease: PennyStocking!
2008-04-08 01:11:00 Some will argue that my top 3 weekend stocks to watch moving 10%+ in the direction I thought they would proves nothing. After all, maybe my blog is simply popular enough to help these patterns become a self-fulfilling prophecy. But when you throw in a decade of me making millions of dollars off these EXACT kinds of chart patterns, it’s hard not to believe that they are PREDICTABLE! Because they are shining examples of the plays on which my instructional DVD PennyStocking focuses. So just get it so I don’t have to explain/mention as often! That might’ve been rude…whatever, be cheap, sign up to my RSS feed and try to piece everything together. Enough blabbing, let’s talk shop: Top Weekend Pick: Short (SYNM)—I’d hope to short into another full day of gains, but the weak open (double top at $1.25ish) coupled with sad volume meant it was gonna tank, either hard or soft, no way of knowing…so when it went negative on the day, taking out big block buys at $1.21 ...

LongorShort Capital Earns Nickname: Pretentious Prick Capital, aka Matt Dam

Why SmallCap Stocks Rock: Logarithmic vs. Linear Charts

CNBC Has No Young Viewers, My Readers Are All Young, Hmmmmm
2008-04-06 00:57:00 Catching up on some somewhat-useless headlines…while CNBC’s ratings were up 20% as whole, their numbers for everybody not getting social security were down 20%. Where did those viewers go…obviously not to Fox Biz–not with their 10k daily viewers…sorry guys…and probably not to BloombergTV–that channel works better than Nyquil aka should never be watched while operating heavy machinery. My guess: those “young people” stopped caring about finance because IT BORES THEM! Insiders don’t realize it–they need to star on a reality TV show–outsiders understand nothing! It’s okay in bull markets because at least viewers are making money, but when bear markets hit, then they’re just confused AND poor…not a good combo at all. … [visit site to read more] ShareThis More About: Readers , Young

TIM Rips On Timothy, Two Verrrrrry Different Brands

Those guys give Timothy’s everywhere a bad name. Take one look at their mission statement and see that they’re total whack jobs: The Timothy Plan® is a family of mutual funds offering individuals, like yourself, a biblical choice when it comes to investing. If you are concerned with the moral issues (abortion, pornography, anti-family entertainment, non-married lifestyles, alcohol, tobacco and gambling) that are destroying children and families you have come to the right place. Their marketing materials probly should include pictures like this: Unsurprisingly, Morningstar rates all their 14 funds one and two stars because they get graded on performance, not morality. And yet for all their inferiority, cult company assets are pretty decent—no doubt religion is a mighty find marketing device. (damn, if I only knew ... More About: Brands
