Weekend Ideas Should Be Compiled Here

I am looking for good ideas. I have a lot of up positions and am very liquid. So, if you throw me a good stock, I might just make it worth your while.

Criteria: I want trash, low float, low market cap, about to bust loose, preferably with big short position. PPT members can post screens in the comments section. If you’re not taking this off time to do research for next week, you have no right managing money.

            Tried WILN several times. Gave up.
            The unloved – no volume stealth patent troll with a 4% yield. Stuck at $4.

    I gave you mine already. $END.

    1. 47M shares float, 28% short
    2. oil & gas, so they have physical assets
    3. they are basically bankrupt, debt/equity = 6.01 so it is also a bankruptcy play.
    4. chart has that cock and bawls formation going

    $ANV isn’t low float but it’s beat to shit, is the most oversold miner out there and is in no need for money as it closed TODAY a recent $150mm financing. Done at $10.75, the stock closed today at $6.94. Worth a bet.

    As I have been mentioning this week, ODP and OMX look ripe for a move. I think they’re gearing up for a squeeze. The stores are absolute shit, so they are trashy in that regard. If those are too big in terms of market cap, then look at BV. It’s a thin stock, with a high short float. If it gets above 8 it will rip. Volume pocket is above that. The weekly chart is technically already breaking out. Earnings are beginning of June, so that may add short covering. I smell bottoming happening here…

    From my own magnificent idea cache, I’ve curated two fine plays:

    ENTR – already busted loose and is quickly chugging towards 5 dollars. 8% short float.

    TC – A miner that doesn’t give a rat’s ass about gold and silver. Recaptured the 200d this month on a huge gap higher with very strong accumulation. It’s now backfilled the gap and tested the 200d for support. It’s ready to run from 3.42 up to 4 bucks AND MORE. 18% short float.

    Homework on a Friday Night..omg…anyway, I am a Bear, but if I had to go long, I give you GIVN, not a huge short interest but imho the CEO was wetting himself in his conf call talking about the Press Conf that is going to be held after they present data this week at the Digestive Disease Week(R) (DDW(R)) which is the largest international gathering of physicians, researchers and academics in the fields of gastroenterology, hepatology, endoscopy and gastrointestinal surgery. It takes place May 18 — 21, 2013, at the Orange County Convention Center, Orlando, FL..stock is oversold…but we have a overbought market so it could be swimming against the tide.

    RMTI biotec bit of a gamble, cruise 1 and 2 results by aug sept . Currently finishing up offering of stock at 3.05 trading at 3.40. Huge percent of float short. Minimal downside I think worth the risk.

    Might want to take a look at $PSON, Petrosonic. It is new technology for processing heavy oil. Could be promising. Very volatile new issue on pink sheets. I tossed pennies at it thinking it might be a ten bagger! Volatility makes it good for swing trades.

    AVNW. (Aviant networks.)
    If finviz is correct. 96% of the float is short. (LOL…Wut?)

    AKS steel.

    OPEN has a large short interest. (21%) and it is in a solid uptrend.

    AMKR, ZOLT, GTAT, GLUU, CALL, EBIX, VHC

    CALL has 41% of the float short.
    Broke through a trendline to the downside for the last few days..but in an uptrend since march.

    GTAT huge volume the last few days. currently at 4.52. Some small resistance at 5. In an uptrend since the beginning of april. 35% of the float is still short. (if finviz is correct)
    And they operate in the LED, Solar, Saphire,photvoltaic space.

    They were up big the last few days. Not sure if it was short covering or not.

    AMKR. In an uptrend since mid april. 55% of the float is short.
    Above the 200 day for the last 10 days. 50 day turning up at a sharp angle.Curretntly at $4.50 and could run to 5 in the next week or 2. Low volume micro cap. Gapped up hard a few weeks ago on earnings.

    Will keep looking.

    $APRI- Buy out speculation is the catalyst due to removal of poison pill.

    $TINY- Emerging of new science is the catalyst.

    $LRAD- ex-father of $PAMT. Its US military sales is currently handicapped by sequestration; however, manufacturing partner in China is a potential catalyst.

    All three above have less than 30M float.

    I’ve overachieved in an overextended market during a historically not so bullish time, overbought RSI on weekly and daily extended into upper Bollinger band and overbought slow stochastics near the upper trend channel and resistance coming up on longer term pattern.
    The strongest bull markets don’t give you a chance to buy much of a dip very often, but this is a little bit extreme. Protection is my play… But if I had to initiate some new positions.
    Gear up for war with ERJ, KAMN, RGR, maybe TASR and the civil disorder with SWHC.

    If you want the high debt equity, low quick ratio BK plays with high short float and low float…

    CSTR,ALJ,CSUN,ROYL,BIOF and why not SOL too with solar going apesht.
    Low float momentum names with EPS growth of 25+% MELI,VOXX, BBG,SWC,ZAZA

    And ACTV and FSLR into the volume pocket
    But mostly UUP and a small position in puts on Monday.

    ECOL – small waste company with a dividend on a dip

    WM – some day on a dip that never comes

    ASEI – small cap with a nice dividend that fights drugs, terrorism

    NTWK – simply because another site ranks it a # 1 buy.

    EMC – on a big dip in the summer doldrums. Maybe 17 to 27 from summer to winter ?

    HCSG – gotta do more research on this one, but it’s lower.
