goldne lama award gets passed back to you I guess...of course we both would have adjusted our entrants by now if we had been playing this contest more actively.
ACEC...not too good right now...I hope to see it reverse and head back up, but not sure if it will... I am out of it for the moment.
Did you see my pick last week. I spend a lot of time in the long room, and I have picked two stocks so far and pushed them with some conviction. The first was AIRO when it was in the 9 and 10s, and last week I got some of the guys into SLNK before it ran from 9s to 15 on friday (finished in the 13s).
Two in a row, and for a while I am going to keep my mouth shut...what are the odds of hitting another one after two like that. I am just happy to be able to contribute something back to the group. I am really owing you for introducing me to Tonys group.
I hope Tony and Matt get over this problem they have.. What do you think will happen?
I got out of BEOS with a decent profit, but for a while I was sweating it.... I had to keep averaging into a better position, and it scared me to have so much tied up in it, but it worked out well in the end. The offshore account has been VERY good to have. Are you set up yet. I have had mostly good luck with #2 but you have to watch them. I got my first bad fill firday on SSFT, when I placed my ss order the bid was 13 1/16 and they did not get it filled for several minutes and finally did so at 12 3/16. My order was placed at 10:24. I have had to protest two other fills which they honored after I pointed out how long they had to fill them. I think they are understaffed and can not handle the action when it heats up.
But overall, I have not yet (knock on wood) lost money on a short done with them. I can not say the same thing for my long plays. Maybe it is because I don't call them unless I am SURE it is a good call, or if Tony called it.
I made good money on QCOM from 287 to 320 when tony called the sell, and of course the rest is history.. He had 5000 shares, and so from 320 to fridays close of 378 he lost a potential gain of 290,000. Wow, I thought I felt bad leaving behind my 200 shares worth..
Hope you are doing well in trading and in your personal life...my best to you on this beautiful sunday
