I Feel Myself Getting Cold

I’ve been wanting to buy GNK and CAAS all day, but have held back since they’re both low volume death traps. For the time being, both stocks are climbing and the market looks fine. But what if AAPL throws a grenade for earnings after-hours? What if the market decides to pause? There are so many ifs, not enough red bulls.

Either way, I find myself cold, searching for answers, looking for the truth in a sea of lies.

I am enjoying the pullbacks in both YELP and TRLA and can only wish they both drop 10% from here, so I can get back in. When in doubt about what stocks to buy, I like to default to my favorite story stocks. Otherwise, I’m just trading a bunch of crap, literally hoping and praying for a breakout.

This isn’t a rational way to invest.

The market is flat, but I am down 1.2%. Taking a step back and seeing how far I’ve come over the past 6 weeks, I’d be an idiot to press my luck at a time when I feel like I’ve lost an edge.

Speaking of which, the other day on twitter, post Davian fraud revelations, I haphazardly intertwixt Tim Sykes with the word fraud. This was an immature act on my behalf and hereby apologize to him for my indiscretion.  Truth be told, it’s very easy to just say things on the internet– without even thinking how it might affect the other person. This coming from me, a person who has banned over 2,000 readers of the site for talking trash, I should know better.

    Tim Sykes is actually a huge disgrace to my alma mater. Huge p*o*s who tries to play off his penny stock winnings back in the day.

    I find it hard to believe he’s so “successful” with all the trading programs/gimmicks he promotes.

        Thats exactly why I call BS.

        Im originally from Miami, and there are tons of frauds like him who rent out high end cars and hire hot girls for photoshoots. For example, my struggling lawyer friend Martinez does that all the time to give off the appearance that he actually has clients.

        The guy claims he’s up like 1000% every single day too.

    You posted a while back you haven’t taken a vacation in a couple of years. Perhaps it’s time to take the family on vacation for a couple of weeks?
