htere you go with ..tooo pricey...its the the precentage of the move YOU are looking for..if it cost 2 bucks and goes up to 2.40 that 20% if it cost 80 bucks and goes to 96 that is 20%...so the pric of the stock is inmaterial..you are looking for placing your bet on the direction ..for you its long (you want it to go up), and what is the risk reward ratio..ive been seening stuff all morning , get your charts out and watch "your" favorites..tons of action tis morning..only to paraphrase R1.. "I woke up on the wrong side of the bed" ..that little puddle gusher gustav did exactly oppisite what i had bet on..so now down today for the moment..not a good start for the month..errr

typically..any move beyond 7% in one day is really good..5% is fair and above 12% is great..so there you go..oil is "plummeting" cause of the "puddle gusher" gustave..soo airline are booming..jblu and uaua (both airlines) was up over 10 and 20%...

i believe airlines are only up because oil is down - the minute oil starts to spike up the airlines will continue the down slide -

I played FNM yesterday from 6.60 to 7.15 and today I am just watching because I am out of intraday trades until Friday.
I wouldn't mind finding something to hold overnight, but I would be paying closer attention to the end of the day today.

I have a lot of balls. I guess I jump in big time. Well, I was down $1,500 or so at one point with AAI and now up $700. Had my sell set at $3.00. It hit $3.00 but didn't get anything sold. Still have 1 intraday trade available. So thinking I will sell it and flip something else.
SOLD!! $2.85. Took $750 and ran.

Good play on AAI. I was watching SCA as well, but watching it didn't make me any money, unfortunately.

Ok...Debating. Short SCA at $2.36 or buy UAUA at $12.46. Hmmm....If I buy UAUA....I sell at $13. If I short SCA, I cover at $3.00....$3.10

BAC...$30.21. I think it will hit $31 on Wednesday.
CORT...$2.05. Ride to $2.20...make 7.3%
CVP...picked at $3.64....currently at $4.144. Pays a 18.5% monthly Divy. Should get back into the $5.00 range....so still cheap.
VC....$3.36. Can get in cheaper but as gas goes down, should hit $4.00 for a 19% gain.
PTA...Picked it at $2.00. Currently at $2.21 so up 10.5%. I think its good for $2.50 so make another 13.1%
CVP....at $4.60. Almost there. I knew it was a winner.
PMI...Wow....$4.14
VC....$3.50

Your confused. You should of grabbed 500 when I was pissed. You would of made $150.
But Raj, add some more funds and get you a Margin account. Take your time with picks and don't rush. I can afford to lose $2,000, but you can't. Bottom line, take your time, be smart and don't rush. (Maybe I should listen to my own advice).
I will give you a pick so you can sit on it for a while and get your funds up. Give me a few days to find one.
Go watch SCA...about to kill the bid. Shorting at $2.42.....didn't click submit in time.....down at $2.35 again.
