We all have followed more or less of those below in the last week or two, and they are in the most up list on our Qcharts, but I can only enter stocks that I have on my watch list and prepared an entry (blueprint) beforehand. We don't want newbies to think they can just enter whenever and 'make 18%'.. easily. I got into CLRN very timely in the morning and still did make make the entire 19%.. waiting for a buy trigger took 1 1/2 point, same with the rest.The secret is finding the ones you can 'hang onto' for a while without seeing them in that other list. IIJI is the only regret I have since I really liked it from last week, all the others popped up but I was not able to enter them in a timely manner. Today I was careful, I chose the ones I mentioned in code at the beginning of the day when entry was still timely. This list can easily end up in the Most Down list tomorrow and my watch list as well. It is mandatory to have a 'game plan'. Points of entry, stops for short positions, historical price patterns (for the ipo's its harder), reading about the niche they cover, etc, 1 month, 10 day, 15, 5 and 1 minute charts. Realistically, you have to take one stock at a time.. I have about 9 positions since 10th of August and older positions from before. They are mostly others are more 'sedate' stocks that were earnings plays like ADIC, CAMP, NCOG, LBRT, RIMM, ARTC..etc or in my husband's portfolio.. The OCLI's and EMLX's are now gone, the PHCM's, NTOP's, RHAT's, BRCD's, NTCT's all came and went and did not stay. If I bought all the stocks below I'd need about $1,000,000 just for today!! And if I bought them all before they were up 12-15% I'd already have another million by end of the session. For all we know there might be hefty millionaires out there doing just that. I don't know if I mentioned but someone wrote me telling me they bought 25,000 of a certain stock I had called.. sounded nice.. I never bougth that much of anything except maybe yen when i was in Tokyo.
