Feb 12 Watchlist

Dud of a day yesterday for me, just not seeing anything set up and then when it does I am too late..add that to the fact that I am busy doing other things while trying to trade means not much focussing..anyway will have to budget my time more efficiently so I can concentrate at least for a solid few hours each day on trading..watchlist for today: il daily longs: CIMT, MDCI, DMND, LPHI, ATHX, GV il shorts: CIMT anddddd time to focus!

Feb 11 Watchlist

Decent weekend, bit of golf, bit of partying and some relaxing..busy week for me got quite a few meetings lined up for various things..anyway watching the following today, looking for a solid week as last week was slow for me..il daily longs: CIMT, DNDN, MITK, PAMT il daily parabolic shorts: CIMT, CZR...there is also another solid pump and dump going on much like ECAU last week (I still expect ECAU to dump lower and be under $1 soon)..it is GNIN and the promoter behind it has had some pretty large promotions in the past that ran up nicely and then dumped really hard..much like ECAU I will try to locate some shorts to borrow but I doubt my broker will have any..anyway time to focus!

Feb 7 Watchlist

Not much going on yesterday, I had a small watchlist and a couple gave great setups but at the time I was occupied with other things. Really need to listen to my motto every day 'time to focus' and actually focus lol. ECAU was my only position and I shorted it at $2.14 looking for it to dump around 30%. These plays don't come around often, the classic 'pump and dump' (might only get 3 or 4 a month) however they pay nicely. Unfortunately, while the stock was shortable at my broker, I got a buy-in notice saying that by the end of the day all shorts would have to cover so I was forced to close the trade by the close (I only made a few cents on the trade). I am still expecting this stock to tank either today or tomorrow. It is currently at $2.05 and I would not be surprised if the stock is under $1.50 soon and under $1 not long after that. Or it could totally pop and rip a few dollars who knows but based on previous pumps like this, it will fold eventually. Anyway here's what I have on watch today: il longs: PANL, GNRC, EMKR, YELP, CIMT, CPSS...I am going to focus on these but as always, keep an eye on what's happening in the market too. Time to focus!

Watchlist for Feb 6th

Didn't trade yesterday as I was down the east end of the island (airport then lunch etc). Nice to spend some time over there as don't get east much. Watchlist for today is kinda small: il daily longs: SNSS, CIMT, CPSS il para s/s: SNSS, nothing on the ryoli or offshore but I do have my eye on a pump and dump ECAU..my broker has borrows available on it and if it can pop over the $2 area maybe 2.20-2.50 I will be loading up a sizeable position short expecting it to dump to around $1 or lower..this is a classic pump and dump and I love these types of short plays, however normally I can't get borrows on alot of them (might be time to open an accont at Interactive as they are one of the best brokers for shorting stocks under $1). Anyway time to focus!
