Anyone buying or watching any stocks
 

Markets been dropping down, might be some good deals on stocks out there.

up 250 one day, down 250 the next...fun rollercoaster

Kind of crazy to get into stocks as a main street investor with all the computer trading nowadays.

I like QRM at around $4 and HOU at around $5

I like EPASS at $50.00 and IBILL at $75.00






.

Yup, by putting a relatively small amount of money into options on these dips it's hard not to double your money in a week or two. Unfortunately I had to cash out last week otherwise I'd be all over this today.

yeah not bad at all..

I was looking into HIMX recently, seems to be at an all time low. I'm new to this though.

Unless you're a full time day trader with balls of steel and money to burn do not touch Horizon Beta Pros, they are full of shit and will rob you blind.

Buy AUY,GG,SLW,SSRI... :)

And load up on krugerands, and junk silver...

What makes you say that? Not disagreeing just curious

I have studied financial markets obsessively for over 5 years. Just passed the level 1 chartered market technician exam this past spring.

For the average investor looking to make above average returns I would say CANSLIM is the best methodology out there.
You can learn it at http://investors.com/education , or the book is "How To Make Money In Stocks".

This methodology was developed by researching what winning stocks had in common before making a big advance.
Check out the reviews on Amazon about this book to get a good overview.

I believe anyone can learn this system but only if you are willing to put in the study time required.
There are even Meetup.com groups which help teach this methodology.

thanks for the link

Hard to guess if they go up or down. It is very risky .

After loosing 30k trading over the last few years, the next time I buy would be buy/hold for at least 10-20yrs.

If you can forget about them for a couple of years buy into LONHRO (LONR) in London
Currently valued at a little above NAV, making good aquisitions in Africa. Africa is where the growth is going to be over the next decade.

I don't :pimp

I'm doing the marketing for a book titled Laughing At Wall Street. It was written by a friend of mine who averaged an annual rate of return of 775% from 2006-2010. In 2010, his portfolio was ranked #1 among all those with a value of $250K+ on Covestor. Here's a link to the website for the book. It literally just launched yesterday and more features will be added in the coming weeks

If any of you have a mainstream site (or sites) which you feel would be an appropriate venue to do a review of the book, send me an email ([email protected]) with the the site info. If suitable, I'll have an advance copy of the book sent to you on 10/15, which is more than 3 weeks before it's scheduled to be released to the public. I've read it and it really is a good book.

As far as my personal investing, I have 60% AAPL deep-in-the-money LEAP Calls and 40% EEM shares. Every month I write covered calls on the EEM and do calendar spreads (pretty much the same thing as covered calls) on the AAPL. Easy money. Especially lately with all the volatility.

Thanks to CS-Jay I made out like a bandit with SATC this month.. bought for a buck sold for $1.15, then bought for 98 cents, sold 1/4 of it at $1.30 2 days ago. Will prolly buy more on a drop.

Other than that I'm holding
AAPL
GLD

then picked up some cheap 10%+ dividend stocks to hold long term:

WIN
NLY
APU

In this market you need to be a day trader to make your 20% for the year.

If youre buying for the very long term, it cant be a bad time to pick up some really nice dividend stocks because youre being paid to wait for prices to recover, so its a good place to park some cash.

FTR (Frontier Communications) is on almost 11% dividend.

TOT (Total SA) is on around 7% dividend.

I particularly like Total right now as its in the worlds largest 30 oil & gas companies and its pretty much diversified across energy as well as being very geographically diversified. They should find it quite easy to increase the dividend in future too...

I'm watching TSYS right now...I made a buttload off of LVS when I bought them around $6/share close to two years ago and sold at $42/share

yes I buy all the time... when it does a correction down, but is in bullish trend, I buy and when viceversa I sell..

stocks are a great way to make money and don't depend on traffic, sponsors shaving, shitty webcams not converting at 0:15000... you can control your money and you are in full control.. If you make a mistake you have nobody to blame.. but when you start understanding the market you start winning 80% of the time.

The best part is that you can make 10K in one single trade in 1 day.

Something impossible for any average affiliate in this business who does that in 1 full year of work.

Fuck stocks, they stock up my ass.
