Question that I have regarding the "great bull run" of certain stocks is at what part of the week did these stocks start to take off or make their move? Is there a pattern as to when they started to take off? Ie, in the beginning of the week, middle, end? On a tue, thurs, or fri? Get my drift? Maybe if there is a pattern of some sort, it might help some of us get on board or add to our postion(like me whose sitting on some cash trying to figure where it should go other using it to get a lap dance!).

Thanks.

How bout the great bear run of DURA today? WOnder how many people threw themselves out of their windows today because of that tumble?

> Tony, I agree if one could perfectly time the ups and downs,

No need to be 'perfect'. If you bought LGND at 10, sold at 16, bought again at 12 and sold at 15 (and bought back in at 14) you would have done much better than those who held during that short period. You could have done the same with only 1/2 of your position.

Will do.

BTW, Were you listening at $16 when I said it was going to pull back to $12? How about when I said that it looked like a good buy after earnings were released?

Were you listening when LGND was projected to fall below $10

or Biotechs in general weren't supposed to be useful for trading until August?

I just hope you (any everyone else here) were not listening when one of our threadsters told you to buy LGND at $18 ("cheap at this price").

$30 was expected two months ago exchange2000.com , missed that, so now he's expecting triple digits!

These unrealistic projections are nothing new:

Good Luck.

Although I consider LGND cheap at $18, I don't recall any post from any threadster indicating that LGND should be bought at $18. Maybe someone could provide a link?
