Trippi, THQI this is one of my earnings play for this week. It's been in the newsletter for about 1 week already before earnings came out. In fact we had a good deal of our earnings plays this week buck the trend (and we only had 25 altogether averaging just 5 plays a day to follow instead of hundreds) and give good gains while the rest of the market was finding direction and other traders were 'sitting on the sidelines'..analyzing and contemplating if 'we had reached the bottom or not'. I find that if you can't play in down markets then you really not a consummate trader and missing out on gains you can make with puts, and/or earnings plays and news stocks. What would have ended up a lackluster day for people who 'wait for the market to come around' turned out to be a pretty profitable day. I also find that holding on to stocks for the morning gap ups (BYND,SONE,CMD,KING,ISSX,SCH,ABOV,DRIV,SELAY,IONAY,RINO,LCVI,WJCO, ROSI,BVSN,TAGS,VRSN,ADLAC for example this week) is infinitely more profitable than chasing the stocks throughout the day for the 1/2 point pops on stocks that have 5 point price ranges.
