When was the last time $SOCL led a rally? I bought June calls on $MTCH, and am stalking $ANGI too.
More later,
OA

Today has been meh. Bought SCTY, PANW calls, AAPL puts.
Bought TWTR calls Friday, which are looking good.
PANW looks good here – low was 128.25 Friday, bounced off it 3 times today before moving decisively off it.
I like the way SCTY looks, but may be early.
HUBS is breaking out
How bout that Bitcoin!
Seriously. Glad I bought some on OAs post
Can I go back to the $ANGI well again? Has anyone ever traded her profitably twice? … in a row? Feels like tempting fate. Looking hard at $PYPL. Debating June or July expiry.
Is TWTR going to $0?
it’s up 2% today… what am i missing?
Seems like that is the sentiment out there. At what point does FB or someone else buy their traffic?
3.5 billion in cash. $5.14 per share.
Like ACOR and PFPT
Bios had a fast and furious runup. you don’t think a breather/pullback coming up here?
Just playing short term breakout from strong wedge pattern. But think BIO will continue upward trend..
Hefty candle in AAPL today
What components are taking up SOCL? TWTR only up a nickle, FB down, what am I missing?
LNKD is the biggest weighting.
I’ve been away from my desk, did today’s reversal come on any type of news? Or just last day of the month selling?
may be related to the big reversal in oil. the OPEC people came out and said something about oil output that sent oil negative for the day. I assume market action was related to that
Time to swap back to Long Gold : Short Crude? I am tempted to roll out to July TWTR calls if SOCL is leading…looking at the 18’s.
Impressive day in biotech. KERX ICPT KITE looking good.
haha. just friday everyone was saying 1200 gold would break. i guess that was your sign??
was getting concerned with the price action until the close – still don’t like how the day went and may be looking to rotate out of profitable positions this week – thinking the rate hike might be on play and cause some issues.
Freakin BABA
things are getting very interesting on the bullish side. China tech could be ready for a massive breakout.
I picked up shares in SHAK at the close.
Strong resistance at $38.42 for SHAK. Let’s see it break and hold. Hasn’t for 3 months. Though buying volume is a little stronger.
Fly signaling overbought. Time to get uber long
The Fly finally comes out of the closet over the weekend and follows it up by bringing back the most arrogant douchebag extant – Jake Jerk Off Giant. Amazing how quickly the quality of content on this site has plummeted…if IBC was raising cash today, it would be a down round.
Time to find some new digs…this site is headed down the same nowhere path as TSCM.
Next!
I tried, but there is nothing out there for intelligent investment conversation. Tumbleweeds… unless twitter is your thing, but its a complete circle-jerk, imho
This is a last refuge
Thanks OA
Ha, sorry to be a last resort. I suppose that means I ought to step up my game as well.
You are doing just fine, brother
No reason to overexert yourself – its a marathon, not a sprint… lol
Yeah, I’ve taken a backseat to the added workload. The analysis has been right, and I’m thinking I’ve helped a few make some money on this recent run. Less is more here, IMO.
I appreciate your insight. Only place here unfortunately w actionable ideas.
I think he was referring more to the regurgitated news from The Fly. Most of the time it’s a one or two sentence blurb from him followed by several times that amount of copy/pasted content from some other article.
Really used to enjoy coming to IBC and reading through all the content when I had a chance. Was especially excited about the addition of Macke and found his content very entertaining. Not sure if this is the reason he stopped posting here, but I wouldn’t blame him.
Now, if it weren’t for Jeff (OA), I wouldn’t even bother with this place. Been following Jeff’s blog(s) since 2006 and it’s a shame to see some of the best content on this site get buried in a sea of garbage you can find anywhere else.
OA, you thinking ATH’s in SPX this month or more chop/ consolidation?
Dow and SPX, yes…this month or next.
k cool. I’m not sure how we get there but I haven’t been this bullish in a while.
Anyone still watching $fro? nice move off of earnings
the BABA yo-yo continues short term heavy chop making life difficult
Long a single PYPL July 39 this morning.
I think the conversation about last refuges here is that succeding in the stock market is hard, and doing well consistently takes so much work that in order to have a successful site that gives good content is mentally draining, and even when you are doing everything you can, the market throws a curveball and takes an emotional toll. Now that the machines are involved, it has tilted the playing field and made it that much harder…I think The Fly recognized that and developed Exodus to use machines to base a strategy around that required little emotion. Trying to find stocks to trade is becoming a dying art. Most of my co-workers and friends don’t invest, and if they do, it is in the 401Ks and most of them think the targeted date retirement funds are the best choice…..because they are easy
“doing well consistently takes so much work that in in order to have a successful site that gives good content is mentally draining,”
I think this is the big reason these kinds of blogs are rare. If you charge for your content, you get thin viewership and without the feedback, the value drops significantly. If you don’t charge, then it the econmics of the time spent become harder to justify, especially when the truly skilled can make more money just managing OPM.
