always consult with a licensed professional financial adviser before making an actual transaction

this is looking like the start of a bear market to me

could be totally wrong and we will know by end of Sept but be careful

we get big up days followed by drip drip drip drip down days

Dean- what do you think ?

is your legendary and rare "inflection point " coming to the general US equities markets soon ????

wow-

I am getting some EXTREME fear indicators the likes of which I have never seen.

the means that folks are pooping their pants they are so scared of losing money.

this may all come to an EPIC conclusion very soon - the FED meets the 16 and 17th of this month -so we have one week.

look for an extreme move down if the Fed raises rates and a rocket move up if they dont.

neither way will give you much time- I am talking close to 10% moves in a few days

looks like we are getting a "pop" from a oversold short term condition.

we might get a "hope" rally going into next weeks FED on the basis that they would not dare raise rates now with the trouble in China.

of course if they DO raise rates .........................you know what happens !

ok - no fed hike.

my call is that the market will like it over the next 2 weeks even tho we were very volatile today

looking for a 10% up move

Dean-

gopro is down 10% today - that's the problem with catching a falling knife

 

folks out there  - just because a stock crashes into the abyss does not mean you can just jump up and buy it.

if only it was that easy !

That depends on the reason for the drop!  With the fear of interest hikes, I'm only going to go in when we actually see an upswing at open.  With all of this selling, there's a lot of cash out there to push stocks high fro a day or two.

That's why I took only a third of my position yesterday, and another third today. And if it goes down another 10%, I'll take my last third.

And you don't judge a trade after 24 hours. Let's see where GPRO is in a year. Looks like a great takeover candidate here for one of the big boys.

I've got an order in for tomorrow morning for my last third, if it opens slightly lower still.

Then I'll put a stop in and wait and see. If it's a loss, I can use it to offset some gains in AAPL.

GO PRO DOWN HUGE AGAIN !

 - 8.0 %

 

Dean - that was a foolish trade

 

Risky - yes Foolish - ???

I remember some rather negative comments from you about AAPL when I got stopped out twice before catching the low as well. And while GPRO is no AAPL, time will tell. My gains on AAPL today were 3 times my losses on GPRO. So it was a good day, profit-wise. And I bought some more GPRO near the close. But I do have a tight stop on it now.

And yes, I could lose some money on the trade. But I'll try and keep the losses low, and let the winners run.

I am not like you. I can't pick winners every time.

you cant pick winners ever time but the strategy of trading against the  current and against the trend is one of the basic "no-no" s

sometimes it seems that no matter what happened  - you claim your choice was the right one

this is not my rule in any way - it can be found in the most classic of stock advise / trading books

you are better off to trade up - paying more for each third then - doubling down

I know that my word is taken as hogwash here so I recommend folks pick up a few stock trading books- it will be in there

i outta here  - good luck

have fun

Bought more CHK ...... it's a gamble....but unless it goes bankrupt....could be a big winner if oil/nat gas turns around in a couple of years.

How come you only mention moves when they are down. GPRO is the same price it was 10 days ago - the last time you said "down huge."

Dude-

its down 4% again today - give me a break !

It almost seems like you enjoy pointing out when I lose money. Perhaps a bit of schadenfreude?

But don't worry. My gains in AAPL today more than cover for it.

Yep - now I'm only up about 85% in 2 yrs. instead of 100%.

That's some tasty crow.
