• Going through my screens each morning as I always do, I was becoming a bit discouraged, because I couldn’t find anything really enticing, and then Roundy’s (RNDY) came into my life and made everything a little bit better for me.  Honestly, I had no idea what I was getting myself into with a name like

  • I went into today thinking that if the market can pop off of the morning lows, that would be my cue to get long 2-3 more positions. So far I got two of them, and one of the others happens to be SINA that I’m watching closely.  The two trades that I took, Fortune Brands

  • Great trade setup this morning, compliments of @thetradingwife via the SharePlanner Pro Trading Platform this morning.  There’s a clear resistance area that the stock has managed to break through this morning and you can simply put a stop-loss below the previous higher-low on the daily chart at $33.59. Since late March it has been on a

  • I would love to know why a company called “VCA Antech” gives themselves a stock symbol of “WOOF”. There has to be a million other letter combinations that gives a better impression of being something more than a dog kennel for goodness sakes.  Thank goodness I don’t trade off of company  perception because I’d sell

  • I wasn’t planning on doing another post – but I found 3 very tempting setups to jump in – and yes – I just took a position in Affymax just moments ago at $17.26 as a long play. All of these trades I consider to be swing-trades. I’ve noted the entries and targets for each

  • I’m a bit bummed out that I didn’t get in on the Ball Corp (BLL) breakout today. But I am quite happy about the chance that was presented to me with Redhat (RHT). I actually traded RHT earlier this month in the $55’s and it is no doubt higher since I got stopped out at

  • Usually my swing-trades out number my day-trades by about 5 to 1. But thanks to @Fuinahz I’m short what I believe is a nice setup off of the 5-minute chart of Cabot Oil & Gas (COG). As you’ll see in the chart below, this thing has a beauty of a head and shoulders pattern, one of

  • Every time I trade Estee Lauder (EL) – which is more times than I’d like to admit, a bit of my manhood gets flushed down the tubes. Yet again, I find myself today crossing gender boundaries and getting sucked into another EL trade. Basically its outcome boils down to this:  Who will rise victorious at
