I sold my RIG and reinvested the funds in CAM today, so far has been a good move. RIG really killed me. Thought about buying more TCMS but held off. Sold some of my EEX at 6 7/8 that I bought yesterday at 6 3/16. Something is definitely up with that stock, lots of big blocks cross at the ask lately...still own a bunch... Rory

Well, to be perfectly honest with you, I bought GLM at 13.94 at about 2.30 but sold it back at 14.06 late in the day when I saw crude falling back. On the buy, I liked that osx took out yesterday's peak but on the sell I didn't like the supposed reason for the rise in crude(iraq) and also didn't like how crude was closing. So, we shall play another day. Not all that adept at daytrading

re: .who sold today? Not me. I only sell on euphoria. If I was going to do anything, I would have bought more RIG. But the market can't decide whether to reestablish support at 25 for RIG, or continue sinking. Yesterday's move is shaping up to be a classic example of capitulation: slow drift down on low volume, then a final downward spike on high volume, then up. Remind me, if I happen to have a few hundred thousand shares of something to sell, not to use DLJ. If they had dribbled the stock in over several days, 25 might have held, and the customer would have gotten a much better price.

No selling, only buying today. Added a few more shares of APC and SFY.

Sell? "Not I", said the little red hen. So John, what really happened with FLC today - almost nothing. They've thrown the kitchen sink, the stove, the refrigerator, the color tv, and the living room furniture at FLC and what happens - down 25 cents. Wow! And after all that doomsday verbiage on the thread, CNBC, and in TheStreet.com too. All that really happened was that the stock went down to it's 200 dma and bounced with a typical reversal. What I can't understand is why no one wants to comment on the incredible resiliency of this stock in the face of devastatingly bad news. Hmmmm. Why wasn't this stock absolutely annihilated today? Why isn't this stock trading at $7 as of todays close? Interesting questions, don't you think?!

No selling today, but could not resist buying FLC at 9 1/16. Am now completely tapped out on cash and margin. Seriously doubt if many contributors to this thread were selling except to better position themselves.

Not I. I bought RIG yesterday on the selloff, and have been loading in OS as prices decline. Having been only partially in for being so cautious during the initial runup on OPEC repricing, I've "learned" and hope that I don't "learn" a different lesson. One thing that seems to hold (so far) is buy on negative stories and fear, and sell, if you are going to sell, when we are bathed in summer sunshine. So far, it's been quite a ride. Thanks to Slider for leaning against the tide during critical times--and getting me to sell (partially) while the band was rocking. (Although, there's been times when I thought I'd missed the boat for good by listening to his advice.) Lets hope that the "global recovery" story is reality, and it delivers an SUV in every pot.

For what it's worth once again I am locked and loaded with RIG, GLM, TMAR and FLC. All have touched off EDMA in the 25-50 class and I don't think we go down much from here. I currently have ( no kidding) $146.00 cash left in my account.( May buy some more FLC with that even.) hitsoft17
