JP:
Way to take the profits. Sold GOOG for a tiny 1% but better than the alternative.
Just noticed SVM.TO This one has been whacked over the last 6 months I am trying to hold off buying the explorers till Mid-July but I couldn't resist. This is actually a producer.
This is a highly profitable Silver Play and China play. (.42 CAD last year) You might want to put some of this in the retirement account. Rode this on from about 2 to 8.50 (Pre Split) and have been patiently waiting for the miner summer doldrums.
I am hoping it goes down further so I buy some more. FYI, I am very patient with the explorers/miners.

Trout: Thanks for the tip, will add to watchlist...good job on GOOG. Take a hard look at CELG, it took out all of my moving averages today, the last time it did this was back in march 18th, a nice 18% move.

I only shared that last real time trade to add something to some other posts I've made across this board.
I'm watching the broad market like a hawk right now, I'm on high alert. I've found no better way to be in touch with the broad markets at transition points, than to be trading one of the broad market ETFs. I wanted to FEEL the vibe the last hour today after the FED, it was quite a ride. That was a real trade and exactly what I was trying to type as it happened.
I'm pretty close to a stop and reverse system with the broad market most of the time. I may however be a few days in cash before I reverse the swing.
I chart to be in the game, not to watch the game. The players get to play and make the bucks, the fans get to to pay to sit and watch. You must trade, and you must use money, the real kind to build the emotion stability to be a successful trader. How simple is it: Gee's, just use small positions until you master it. Master risk/reward and implement good money management on every trade.
I will draw my lines in the morning and the evening and continue to track with an active position until the price action reacts one way or the other. I'm not playing a day trade here, notice I held over night in the trades above. I want to FEEL the close and the open tomorrow. Test my emotions. Cool, calm and collected, playing the game.
78 cents a share ahead on DDM going into tomorrow with a doubled up position from the last hour of trading today!
What if it Gaps up, I'll sell and take the profits and watch for another buy if the Gap fills...
What if it Gaps down and stop you out, I'll buy it right back. I feel you Mr. Market and I got your number.
This can happen for several days while I'm in anticipation of the major move in the time I trade. And when it does, I'm in the game, I have internalized the broad market winds and I'll call up my RS all stars from the dugout and put them in play immediately, usually 5 to 10 at one time. Then manage the trades over several days and take what the markets give me.
Thanks for tolerating me sharing this way... Thought it may be fun to watch, but I'll save you the grief of the minute by minute from here on out... LOL... Thanks guys...

izzykabaka says: wazeeeyuuuuupy! pipo pipo.
a little reminder from the kabakanation, i posted here not long ago that Tgc tengasco was the golden stock of this year .(a.ka.a year of the kabaka). i also said something about getting a couple of thousands of them, well its been raining down here, but if you didn't get in then, izzy says haaaiiiiii! you'll never walk alone.
Again, get a few thousand now or in the next few days in your medium to longterm play. see you at 14- 18 dollars by year end.
