  1. emg,

    lol.. Yeah.. The bulls definitely isn't scared now.. I do still think that this move up is just a head fake to lure people into buying then crush them later..

    Just my opinion..

  2. Aug. 30/12

    Market Recap:

    Same theme.. The market consolidating and was just going back and forth.. I don't expect it to be different tomorrow and Friday..

    If something sets up then I'll give it a shot but I will be very quick to take profits and my stops will be very tight just because it's a holiday..

  3. Real Time Update:

    The market has a big gap down as I'm writing this and could gap right at the 20 MA..

    This is very important.. Watch what it will do.. I think we'll bounce up but if it breaks it then it's going to be a lot tougher..

  4. Real Time Update:

    I bought COG

    Entry: 40.60

    Stop: 40.51

    I'm looking for just a lousy bounce.. I think the market is gonna be in trouble today..

  5. I have already removed 1/2 of my position and my stop at break-even.. Be careful out there specially if your in buying mode..

  6. Lesson for the day:

    When I bought COG just minutes ago, I didn't have high hopes for the stock but even though I was pessimistic about it, I still kept 1/2 of my position just in case i was wrong..

    Guess what? I was wrong and COG kept going higher.. The lesson is you can always be wrong at predicting what the stock will do..

    Anyway, I still think the market is crap today so I probably won't be taking any other trades..

  7. Stopped out of COG for a .42 gain

    The market is tanking now so again be careful..

  9. Hi,

    I guess I'll post once in a while because what happened today is too important not to mention..

    The bulls are back.. They are strong and are here to stay for a while.. I want you all to know that buying will be easier now unlike the last couple weeks..

    Trade Well..
