Good points; shows why having a watch list is of great importance: so you can know ahead of time what to look for and where to look (which stocks). Having a list (or in Market Gems' case, a series of lists from recent days, which are the raw material to draw from) allows greater flexibility so necessary in these markets. If you're not versatile you can't cut it, not like the old days. So much is preparation and then recognizing the trend and trading accordingly. Much for me to learn, intraday most especially, including reversal periods.

NTOP..great earnings announcement. Its up a lot in after hours, but probably has even more upside? Can this bode well for our other earnings plays? Well this could be a better break than all the limpid political news. We will focus on some of the other earnings plays tomorrow as well as some other new plays.

Today's Trading Day: THE BIG DIPPER: from last night's post: Dips are not necessarily buying opportunities.. dips can lead to tankings especially intraday. So logic is that dips are good for end of day to get a possible gap up in the morning. But that can backfire because no one knows what insidious news will crop of during the night or what company will be denigrated in the premarket or post market. Thre was urging buying the dips on Monday and last week but what about the dips that turned into Bigger Dippers.. Dips are just that.. a stock that is going down and that's all it is. We don't know how deep the dip will be. According to the Thesaurus we find the word DIP synonyms: DIP: PLUNGE, SUBMERGE, RINSE or IMMERSE.. So which dip are you buying? The plunge or immerse or the rinse? And how do you know if you are getting the little dipper or the big dipper?
