Stock Picking / Re: DPTR – On High Alert !
May 08, 2009, 04:19:04 PM
Quote from: setravis on May 08, 2009, 04:10:19 PM
Right now short term profits is the way to go.  If you make a profit don't be shy to take it.  The market doesn't go straight up so any run that last 3-5 days could retrace.

I would also advise against holding stocks into earnings.  Holding a stock through earnings is a huge risk and not worth it. JMHO of course.......
I hear ya... the sell order got triggered a bit too early.  I ended up selling at 1.52, from 1.40.  Not a huge profit, but not a loss either.  I'l monitor and might get back in on Monday.

This is the way I am playing the stocks I get into at this time.
I will take a look at DPTR and maybe I can make some type of analysis that will help you out more. Be back here later...

Well thank you very much for that!!

Delta Petroleum Announces Pricing of 150 Million Share Common Stock Offering - PR Newswire

Pre-market is going crazy.  Over 6M shares already and it's barely 9 AM EST.  Yesterday's close was: $2.27.  So far, ask is at $1.46.  I know about the whole falling knife thing, but it's tempting to grab a few shares.

Set', any thoughts?

Edit (pre-market)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Order is in for $1.35.  I think it'll take a dip right at opening and (hopefully) recover during the day - or at least that's the plan.  This is a day trade for me.  I don't think I'll hold overnight (if the buy goes through).

Edit (market is opened)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I ended up changing my limit price to $1.40.  The order went through and I've got a trailing stop at 0.10 points.  I'm keeping a tight leach on that one.

set... I saw that one yesterday.  I got tempted to catch the falling knife.

You'd think I would learn!!!

I didn't though (buy it, that is).  It's very active in pre-market.  The temptation is there still.

Good thing I'm more interested in SCSS.  ;) :D

I heard about FinViz.com on Andrew Horowitz's The Discipline Investor.  I've found it very useful so far and just wanted to share.

So sorry to hear you feel alone set'!  I know there are a lot of people out there. Reading a lot, contributing little. :-\  I know, I do that too.

I passed on CNXT, had an order for DPTR at 2.43 (low hit 2.50).  Oh well!  I'm on to INSM now. Can't cry over spilled milk they say   :D ;)

I like the chart!!

Price goes up as volume goes up 4 days in a row.  Time for a retracement.

Placed an buy order @ 1.08 (I might revise that up a few cents)

CNXT popped up on my radar.

The reason behind this surge:
Conexant Systems Inc. Earnings Call scheduled for Thu, Apr 30

I'm keeping an eye out for it.
