Hey Terliso what you think of TARR today? Im targeting small to medium size home builders on shorting now.
Looks good null ;)
--- Created a Top Head & shoulders pattern --- around $6 bucks in play ;)
--- also broke the 200sma & 200ema (weekly scale) this indicates the stocks will go down further in the medium term.
good luck!!
You going to play TARR? Im going to try to see if I can short more hehe. I tried shorting 1000 shares today and could only get 400 from scottrade...
I don't know null, I'm heavily short right now... I have to free some of holdings first ;)
R u still in on AAPL look like ready to close the GAP?
YEAP STILL IN AAPL short ;).
TARR looking really bearish going to try tomorrow to see if there is anymore shares to short on this. >:D
Scottrade had 460 left to short today, I them an shorted at 10.00, TARR now trading below 10 >:D.
TARR continues the trend down >:D.
Finished shorting my position today shorted the last portion at 9.70. Now fully positioned in on TARR at 10.06 avg. TARR currently down another -3% today >:D, I cant see any reason to cover now >:D. TARR will probably drift lower by the day the longer they delay their earnings.
Here is a chart of TARR... man it doesnt look good for the bulls >:D.
I covered my TARR position last week around 9.50s for a nice gain. I was just scanning through my previous shorts I closed position in TARR and noticed that TARR has had a nice big rebound. This was after they released earnings, the earnings suprising showed modest gains and profit. Im now looking for a possible new entry on the short side, I will post some charts later and look more into TARR shorting again.
Keep TARR under the radar for a short. If it passes 10.50 I would definately take a look at shorting it. 10.60-11.00s would make a great short entry with a cover target in the 9.00s.
Would 3.37 be a reasonable long entry?
