RDN- not quite 30%, but it definitely shot through the roof after I took my loss on it. I am going to give up soon the way this is going.

raj..the..bam..man.. dude..with amount of capitol you are working with its tuff..but dueable..always remember..DO NOT be in a hurry to loose your MOLA..if you are working with 1000 bucks..only put in maximum 15% of your total principle into any 1 bet..(oh yes, buying and selling of these stock symbols is just a bet in cyber vegas)..so looking back..you swung for the fence and struck out..too much money at one time was the trouble..to take a real risk would be max of 25% at any one time..so the most you would put on a bet is 250 bucks..when you are tradeing..so learn learn learn ..im working with 75k..but this is MOLA that has taken a few years to build..and i very rarely put more than 7k into any 1 bet with no more then 15k in play at any 1 time..this is a percentage game..you want to catch the percentage of the move is what counts..NOT the price..well work hard scrimp and slave to the man and better luck next time around..because..oh yes..you will be back!!

SO Angel..hang in there bro..this is an up again, down again, game..the trick is to be on the correct side of the move and gain a "feel" for what is going on. and then just limit your bets to a percentage..another good tip from the Morpheus..wait for the "black Monday" drop and only then do you want to drop the bundle into a good symbol like MSFT or AMGN..cause these will come back quick for a 10-15% gain..thats always worked for me..its a good feeling when your patience pays you 7 to 10k in one week..i like the 4 straight down day with the dow game..odds are its gonna go up..and vice verse when short..but only quality companies

WM= quality X=Quality MON=quality MSFT=quality AMGN=quality CAT=quality UHAL=quality BZH=quality these symbols are associated with companies that will be in business for a long time..they do not make for a good swing trade, but when the big DOW move hits ya just feel good about dropping a bundle into them and wait..

Anyone have big enough balls to play with LEH today ? I have been very close to placing an order twice now, but backed away then both times.

r1..msft did not hit by limit order price.so im not in it ..i am in however..X 75 shares * 95.75 and WM 4000 * various prices i guess im averaged out a about 2.55 ..i know cramer does not like WM ..he never has..but i watch and listen to him and do the oppisite which seems to work for me..never really bought much of his recos anyhow..althought im watching REXX..and i made some good MOLA last year on MA..im alos averaged out on RDN 1000 shares * about 3.30 picked some up monday and then wen RAJ was bailing * 3.15..im also holking a pretty good long term in my kids account RACK..we picked that up about 2 weeks ago * 10.15..so ya might say I am long at this point in the game...by the way..UAUA had a nice reversal day would not you say??

I feel like I am the on holding the flag. I would go golf with you if you lived by me. Yeah, WM was sick today. I saw it at $2.25 and thought....DAMN!!! I almost took my losses and grab it. But still coward out. I have to be very careful recovering my losses. Ohhh, WM....reason it moved up IMO is they talked about it being bought by another bank which means PREMIUM price. Its always nice when you own when it gets bought out.
LEH........leave that one alone. I couldn't say buy or sell short. If I guessed, sell short and watch it drop farther. But my advice....look at me and leave it alone.
I still like VG. They always advertise on TV, they are cheap. Good service and no long distance charges. If I was home more, I would get VG for my house.
Well, off to play some games. Sister gets married Saturday so not working Friday Watch me make some calls and trades. Friday is RECOUPE losses day for me.

PS, I got bored and had a little fun with the SPAMMERS on HotStocksFreeForAll. Take a look....LOL
Note, if you check my posts from a few years ago, we had one of these pumpers on this trend and I called him out on it. I think we have some quality people on here right now but you have to watch out for these guys.

I grabbed 2,000 shares of F * $4.79. I think its going back to $5.00 easy. Maybe as high as $6.00 in the next few weeks.

Sweet video. I would give some of them 10s for the falls.
LEH has rumors of them trying to get bought out by several banks. BAC is a solo one. Then they had several banks trying to buy by combining funds. That is why I decided not to short it. I think Korea or China offered LEH $25 a share buyout 3 months ago and they turned it down. I bet they feel like those gymnists now.
F....going to sit on it for a minute. Oil is below $100 now so should give them all extra boost with room to run. Plus they get Gov. line of credit. Looks greak to me. Thinking of holding for $6.00.
CAT moved up $3.00 from when I was thinking of buying it. I didn't buy because I could only buy 180 shares and thought it wasn't worth it to me.
ONT....went from $0.35 to $0.42 today. Anybody catch a ride?
