Should we start calling you the FAST Q?

Why did they call you “the Kentucky Kid”?

hh,

Did you miss me?  I guess I found a perfect time to get away and enjoy the life away from the trading world. 

I left a lot of gold option calls while I was away, and they did fairly well.  Gotta get lucky in this market grin

Now, I am back to work.  Trying to figure out what is going on.  I probably have to look for shorts.

You have to hold my hand next week until I figure out how to trade again.  With my old age, it is hard for me to remember how to do simple things after a week of absence.

Qman,

I just listened to your video tape, and it sounds like I need to go back to my vacation grin

“Sell in May and Go Away!”

I might try to get some XLF option calls on the long side.  I have to watch how this ETF trades tomorrow.

Quint is from Lexington, KY as I understand it or went to school there I believe.


hedgehog's avatar hedgehog location: none specified

Anbion,

I missed you like a toothache bro wink

It twas a wild week.

Louise Yamada, the matriarch of technical traders was on TV last week calling for Dow 10K. Yikes.

I still have to do some homework for tomorrow. However, I see some things that suggest some downside action unless we get a post-options expiration bounce.

GOOG and BIDU acted terribly on Friday. There was reversal action in the ag/fertilizer comples the last 2 days.

More to come and glad you are back.

Anbion,

I sent a message to you last week with my email Shoot me a message if you get a chance. It may allow us to share info/ideas periodically.

quint:  nice job on fast money.

Quint -

Congrats on the Fast Money gig. I was pleasantly surprised to see you out there. I know Pete is big, but don’t let him push you around. smile

Hedge - I have three positions in my portfolio right now.... NCOC, NGAS, DUG, HEK. I actually did “okay” on Friday.
The market is looking pretty scary right now.

Good morning all,

Cp, Camera or no, I need to get out and drop a few lbs, no question.

Lapri, I am located in Kentucky

Anbion, Ya, charts aren’t very appealing out there.

Cobra, Thanks!

Misterc, Thank you.

07:47 SQNM Sequenom files for mixed securities shelf offering( 14.25 )


anbion's avatar anbion location: none specified

SQNM very interesting.  I think i might start a position above 14.65 today.


cpgone's avatar cpgone location: none specified

BQI on fire. ( I owned it before cramer)

I vote for a general stock discussion board.


misterc's avatar misterc location: none specified

I didn’t know Cramer recommended BQI. That is usually the kiss of death. BUT...I do like that chart. I might have to give it a try.

Anbion - I got lucky with SQNM. I bought that one at 10 and sold last week at 14. I am watching for a new entry point.


misterc's avatar misterc location: none specified

My NCOC position is acting really well. The coal stocks seem to never let up. I am not quite sure when to take profits on NCOC

My DUG position is driving me nuts. Just when I start to get excited about it, it pulls back!!! I will let all of you guys know when I capitulate and sell...that way you can know when to enter. smile


anbion's avatar anbion location: none specified

hh,

Thanks for mentioning SQNM this morning.  Grabbed it in the pre market.  It is my biggest winner today.


cpgone's avatar cpgone location: none specified

misterc,

Its kinda strange.People love to hate Cramer.
His analysis of BQI was spot on.
I have gotten an easy double when he rec. PCU.
He is correctly calling to avoid financials.
If he was a CNBC shill , he would repeat the drivel of “have financials bottomed?” BARF
I know there are sites like boyahhboyaudit and so on .
IMHO.. lots of it (IM not saying this about you)
is sour grapes.He is a million-aire and the bashers arent.


anbion's avatar anbion location: none specified

all out of SQNM.  Gotta scalp in this market


cpgone's avatar cpgone location: none specified

Check out ABP and AEZ.
Both are going to be added to the Russell 3000 friday.


anbion's avatar anbion location: none specified

mister good job with NCOC.


anbion's avatar anbion location: none specified

Should have listened to hh and held SQNM.  Oh well.
