Hustle Hard

I am throwing up a post, mainly because I am stepping away and feel somewhat embarrassed by the “Fly Buy” post, littered with degenerate gambling stocks. Look, these stocks are not for everyone and are very risky. Basically, I am ignoring fundamentals and playing momentum, which has a double edged sword. Thus far, I have booked 20% gains in both JST and XING. I’m long CHGS from high $1.80’s and I am betting on a surge in CDII, HEAT and FEED, based upon the laws of “things in motion tend to stay in motion.”

Following my takeover play, HRBN (+20% winner), I am starting to put together a god damn winning streak. Needless to say, I am not impressed with myself, thus far. I have a lot of lost ground to make up, which cannot be accomplished by trading in small numbers. One large number position of mine, FTK, can make a big difference. Year to date, the stock is up nicely. But, now more than ever, I need this sucker to get going.

Having said that, I am off to my Voodoo Physician, where he will sacrifice a goat in my honor, in order to help jump-start the inevitable and likely short squeeze in the shares of none other FTK.

NOTE: I covered my MELI short for a small gain (2%)

UPDATE: I averaged up on FEED @ $2.98 and bought 10,000 FLWS @ $1.91.

    As long as hold ES 1190 or above, (5 points up from here)
    This “triple consecutive bearish megaphone top” pattern remains valid in the SPY. Interestingly enough, were still holding the “Complex bearish head and shoulders” in Oil’s chart, from 2 weeks ago.

    This market has been averaging one flash crash per week lately. Cloud stocks, 2 aapl crashes in one week, SPY after hours crash,commodities on tuesday, etc.
    So, within a few days , we will likely see a new sector gap down 5 to 10% on no news. FXI or EEM look like the most likely candidates. Lotto plays might work , intraday. But, as far as holding overnight….asian markets can be very “dynamic”

      They could also flash BTFU or simply disappear in a burst of shiny golden light.

      But my charts show full on cock and balls formations in every stock IN THE WORLD.

    FTK has some nice volume to the upside today. I wonder if it is just another false start, or the start of something real?

    It’s not going to be a VXX halloween
    VXX is far too gay for that

    It’s going to end up exactly like UNG – a long term short

    LIWA is finally kicking some ass! I’ve been holding on to that thing for a long time. Feels pretty good.

    You would think that the AEM short would cooperate here.
    It is the only gold stock on my screen that shows green.
    I assume it will roll over any soon.

    Scalping TZA and avoid the meat grinder. It ain’t pretty but it pays the rent.

    Since you’re in a gambling mood, why not the ever-so-appropriate $FIG?

    I like the giant on the wall heat map of the S&P 500 on CNBC.
    I will ask my wife if she objects to my putting one up on the wall of our living room.
