PHCM up 18.. closed the position at the close (wouldhave sold at 15 but found myself falling asleep at the keyboard).. put in a stop with an order to sell at close. Even my NTOP was down on such an up day and RHAT looks 'good' to be down. ADIC, VNWK, DCLK, NSOL, KIDE all did great. We had wonderful day.

I've punched in the wrong keys, I even bought the wrong stock. HP I thought was Hewlett Packard about 2 years ago. It was Hemerlich & Payne, I think they are still around or merged, but that was my discovery of the oil service sector. Then once I saw PTVL on my screen last week early after trading began. I thought I remembered it from a former watch list so I looked it up and found PVTL, when I was calling the buy signals that morning PVTL was up 1 which was okay so I called it.

But then I noticed that PTVL was up 37% and PVTL was up about 1.. BOTH of them were up a little over 1 point when I called the buys signal for PVTL.. So in this case should not have looked at my notes. PTVL must have been in 'hot list' the first 3 or 4 minutes of the day because I had no alert on it which is which is why I checked back recealling seeing it in an older watch list (the 13th I think)... I soon saw my mistake when PVTL was up over 4 and PTVL was still up only 1, 1 hour later. That was a disappointment.
