ahh..that makes sense

so in other words we have too many greedy players here...<ggg>

I recall we spoke of limiting positions for players so as to allow others to play...

as in my own portfolio...I usually buy a new one to replace a sold one....

I do not report the majority here...try to only include as a Z position .. ones that I feel will be 2 day to about a month hold.

Day trades, I keep off the board, as they are not too valuable to the lurkers.

number of positions held...
Bill 2
Darth 3
Dan 7
Larry 5
Paul 1
Ron 0 ... and for quite some time now
Sue 2
Tina 1

ps...we ALL need to use stops
my DDIM shoulda been stopped out...cause all it's doing is tying up funds. I know it will rebound, BUT, what a waste of buying power, for the ones that are moving...zthought and zpersonal thought. I will not take the loss on it here, as I still like the chart. May average down, with a close stop posted this time.

Sue

Portfolio thoughts:
thanks for the input ron. time to KICK OUT THE JAMS, MotherF**ker.
I propose we liquidate my OXY and that major loser BAY. Would like to hold CBS and LUV. Not sure about NSCP. Will set 22.50 stop on it. Like the idea of limit on number of positions per sponsor. That will broaden participation and give us all more trading ideas. I will do up a FA/TA on CBS, LUV and NSCP later and post by Monday morning. I am thinking of going with an automatic 8% stop on issues posted by me. Ron, what's your opinion on flips? It would be great to have 30-50K for a flip intra day. you ok with the paperwork? Larry

Z trade - ORCL.

Sold 1000 ORCL at 27 1/16. As posted over the weekend, I don't like the way the chart looks and the stock is weak again this morning. We escaped with a small profit.
