    Swing trade 2 to 3 weeks max
    Stop 7.37
    Targ 8.91+ (10%, not greedy)

  2. Interesting. What made you buy a falling stock with a risk/reward as bad as 0.9 ?

  5. Pure speculation. I frequently get the urge to catch the knife and I have learned to scratch the itch (infrequently) with a few small positions and money/tick management. It works for my psych management, but certainly don't recommend it. No double downs, revenge etc... stop is stop and I move on. I lose 4 out of 5 times, but for me that actually helps me not revenge trade ES, CL and other equities I trade based mainly on PA.

    I sit out mostly on Options Fri. hence the itch.

    :D

  6. BAC is doubling down on their vision. Ken Lewis said after he bought MER that the combined company was going to be a thing of beauty

  10. So, you wanna go long BAC? Well, before you do, please do the following:


    1)Open a checking account at BAC.
    2)See how the staff treats you while there.
    3)Overdraft the account by $3.60
    4)Pay the $400 over draft fee.
    :eek:

    5)Realize that if this happened to you, how many other people it has/will happen to.
    6)Go to an ATM. Pay $3-4.5 ATM fee.
    7)Talk to other customers about, and realize how much they HATE Bank of Satan -- I Mean -- Bank of America...
    8)Find out where people are running to and invest in THOSE companies.

    or

    Look at the chart and realize that this company is a deadman walking:

    Now, this post may be tongue-in-cheek, but seriously: IS THERE ANYONE OUT THERE THAT LIKES THIS BANK? I have yet to find ONE person, and I would love to be proven wrong.
