Jenna- Long time reader, first time writer....got a question: >I have to say I would not get in now but I still think there is >upside left. Exactley what does that statement mean? If there is still upside, as you suggest, why WOULDN'T you but it? Check me if I'm wrong here, but if I am sure that "there is upside left", then the best move is to buy it. After all, we still buy low/sell high -- correct? Why the ambiguity?

Jenna Hello; It helps a great deal when you say "buy Signal" like with BKE for those of us who are learning,we can compare the charts at the day the buy signal was given, and umm make money too :) And of course track them, very educational and profitable, hope you give buy signals and sell signals when you see them , It helps! also when you decide to stay in overnight by letting us know before the market closes, again we can look at the chart and see (or try to see) what you saw. Like when you see strength.. great work thanks sandy

By now you all see the strategy of selling BEFORE earnings (BKE,ANF,PSUN,IFCI).. having made between 10%-30% should really be enough for a 'pop' and that is what Market Gems is focussing on.. ONE pop. You can get more than one.. Once they reverse, I'm usually out especially if I've already got a profit accumulated from at least 3 days to 1 week. I had 2 pops on STRX already, but getting back in a second time or holding through the beginning of a trend reversal is your own decision and based on your DD. One of my positions trades AMCC has made yet another gain and I'm considering closing this one as soon as the uptrend reverses. VRSN, one I've held a while was a 'closure' today as well as it started down from the morning and kept on going south. Another postion trade closed after profit taking and change of trend.
