If you are buying a stock strictly because you believe that it's going to go up 1-2% and this makes you happy then you really need to re-evaluate why you are in stocks in the first place.

You sound like the guy that said he would hate to be the people that shorted a stock after it goes up 1.2%.

You're doing it wrong.

23 cents now for the $18 4/8 call. Kind of tempting, but I really should stay back and relax. Just started all of this a month ago and not wanting to get crazy yet.

EDIT: Sorry, 27 cents ask. Price is 23 cents.

You're the type of guy that's so greedy he ends up losing everything because he couldn't play it safe. Yesterday SIRI went up 4% and I sold it making about $2k. Had I kept it thinking it would go up even more I wouldve lowered my profit because it went down 1.2%.

No necessarily so. It has to do with preference and appetite for risk. Some people want to buy and sell in order to make a few percentage points. Others won't even consider selling until higher percentages. It doesn't mean one guy is playing it safe and the other is being reckless.

You're right. I'm greedy and I don't play it safe so I lose everything. Man, the truth really hurts sometimes. *kicks self*

So AMSC fell another 8%. It's lost half its value in a week. Why?

Hmm. That's a lot but I wouldn't go into it unless I see some rebound. Something falling by that much means it could be going down; permenatly. This 8% drop after it fell 41% yesterday isn't a very good sign. But if it goes back to last week levels again then itd be a great trade.

Did you read any of the news on it?

[VenomBMW]

Ugh. The IRS is imposing even stricter rules on my brokerage account with Fidelity, along with everyone elses. Now they'll get as much taxes from out investments as possible; they've made the strictest regulations on investment accounts to date.

Too risky to touch now but it was good for those who bough earlier this week when NVDA was down.

So far this morning Asian markets have held their recent gains so I reckon the DOW will see more gains this week or next prior to earnings reports. Will have to wait and see how Asian markets close today.

$.04 away from $40

Looks like Silver will see $41 soon which is SLV at around $40 then. For those that missed the ride up you may want to take a short term short position on SLV with some puts once Silver hits $41 or SLV at $40 and then I expect a 5-7% pullback before climbing back up again.

So glad I bought those April 16 calls at the $39 strike price. I bought around 20 contracts I believe.

Been checking out LVS for a while but I don't know if I've missed the train already. What do you think? I've read some articles mentioning it'll rise up to the mid $50s.

Hmm.... looks like it'll be time for me to sell soon then!

[stylinexpat]

$40 cleared and tested $40.3 in Asian markets today.

If market does not tank or crash LVS will see $60 this year and possibly $80 after.

They should be rewarding. Book profits before they decay.
