The Official Day Trader Thread and Diary

[moon/Laura]

welcome bullhunter...

[traderrick]

Hello to you Bullhunter. I haven't seen you around for a while. You must be suffering with a job or some other tragedy. I haven't been in the chat for some time so I would not have seen you over there. I hope all is well for you.

[traderrick]

Gap Up: SOLR,CREE,EP
Gap Dn: FRO

I see SOLR just dropped 5%

A bit off format but for those that like volatility YNDX is the IPO for today and LNKD can be shorted starting today.

Use caution

[traderrick]

The way YNDX looks I'm guessing Scalp must have gotten in on that offering.
I'm only joking.

[traderrick]

And then it started trading while I typed

[bullhunter]

I am working for the man these days...just about back in the saddle enough to start dabbeling in some trading again. However, I think I am going to have to do a little more swing trading and a whole lot less scalping. I do miss trading with all of you. CDH has been keeping me lightly informed of all the trials and tribulations of the ongoing saga here. LOL

Bull as in Elk however, I have been know to jump feet first into a little bit of a BS session now and again. ;D

[skippy]

Bullhunter,

CNXT closed out... how much of a hit did you take on it? I would ask you to join chat but they banned me because i refused to use breadman name in there. So how did you come out on it? We should take a road trip to the CEO house and crap in his drive. Let me know..

[traderrick]

Gap Up: VVUS,AVGO
Gap Dn: FRO,RL,PSS

[traderrick]

I think bullhunter had a guarantee

I don't know what's going on in the chat but it's nice to have you here Skip

Why do I feel like I'm always out of the loop? What "saga" have I been missing? There must be a lot of crazy things happening in the afternoons, because from the time I'm usually in the chat (9:00-10:30) there isn't much more than just the basic trading going on. Every once in a while people on here talk about "sagas" and "drama" but I have yet to see much of anything out of the ordinary. The afternoon crew must be a wild bunch.

Again, unless things are happening later in the day, the mornings are just as they've always been. We chat, we trade, and we tell jokes. It's still the same experience as it has been from day one. I'm starting to think some people may have some internal conflict going on that they think involves everyone else.

As far as "Skippy" not using the name Breadman in the chat and getting banned over it... Let's just say that is one sentence out of the entire novel. It's equivalent to saying the war in Iraq was started because some guy got caught bringing a box cutter onto an airliner. Not quite the whole story...

[bullhunter]

Didn't mean to ruffle any feathers and after re-reading what I wrote, I can see it makes it sound like a drama fest which is not what I was intending nor is it what CDH has told me. Basically I was referring to what would amount to a chapter in the Novel you spoke of secret. That is it.

Anyway, glad to see you are all still trading. Gives me hope!!!!

As for crapping on the CEO's driveway, it would cost me more to travel there than I lost. I started wearing my boy pull-ups not too long ago and I think I can handle the $500 hit without cashing in on the "BM Guarantee." Besides, it is always good to know I have a casino chip worth $500 at Skippy's Fishing Hole and Casino.

However, if a copy of Auto Enginuity with the Ford Diesel Add on Pack hit my door step, I wouldn't return it and I would consider it a wash! LMAO

Rick: While you have been away from the room for awhile, you do know me so well. Yes I played YNDX several times on its IPO day, I did that as well when LNKD had its IPO, it was a wild ride but very well worth it for me.

Funny thing on YNDX is that I could have participated in the IPO from my broker but didn't realize who YNDX was until it was too late.

Bull:
Glad to hear you are well and the room is as it always has been. I am still a crappy stock picker and risk too much,cdh is still hot, secret is secret, Pat is the bossman,Iroc has the best jokes,lowb and fam$ are pains in the ass,lbg is a psychopathic trader (in a good way),drew tells us what he has for lunch and makes us all hungry, caro quietly laughs at all of us,nic,mav,TNT and coyote add to the bizarreness of it all, jbh never seems to leave the room and quietly lurking are many of the same 'old' 'guys' from before with a few new additions.

If I have inadvertantly insulted anyone by omitting their name or they dont like what i wrote,well......tough noogies but that is my role, to be a pain in the butt to everyone

[traderrick]

Gap Up:GES,SIG,TIF
Gap Dn:BIG

Stay calm. I only meant that I hadn't logged in to the chat for a few months and therefore had no idea what was happening there. I have thought about checking in again but have yet to try it.

LNKD was exciting and I thought I might have the "big one" but it was profitable for me too.

That's the whole story to me..... Shouldn't matter what name a person logs on with. But if you could Please enlighten me on this issue?

[traderrick]

Dap Up: MRVL,CVS,VHC
Gap Dn: MHS,BCSI,OVTI

[skippy]

Bullhunter,

Lets say... if there is such a thing as a good ford diesel out there... (dodge cummins guys here) what motor would that truck have?? www.dieselpowerproducts.com/m-90-autoenginuity.aspx? What kit... or type would a person be looking for?? I know nothing about Ford's.... I am looking to buy one of these kits for a guy I know.... Which one would you get? That is only one site I looked at so if you have found something better Please by all means tell me. I know my buddy would want the best one he could get.

[skippy]

you all still running with CVS VHC ?

[skippy]

Market will start pushing back & forth the rest of the day (imo) So I am done.... As I thought CVS & VHC both rose at the bell a little research goes along way.
CVS: 38.80-39.41 1.57%
VHC: 24.46(PRE)-24.96 2.04%
MRVL: 16.33-16.16 1.05%
CVS: 39.40-39.40 B/E
VHC 24.90-24.55 1.42%

I am done for the day, back out in the yard cutting up the trees and picking up limbs. Waiting for the generator guy to come and fix the house generator as it died yesterday. The electric company really busted their butts and restored power last night @ 10pm.

Good luck

[patcubed]

Well, this looks like a good time to promote the chat room to those of you who are looking for a community of traders to trade with. We usually have about 20-30 log ins every morning. We have a commentator, who gives a running commentary of his trades. We trade stocks that have popped up or dropped at least 4% overnight. Members are free to trade or not. The rest of the day many members share picks and ideas in a common effort. A member can contribute or
just lurk. The community is made up of really nice people who are willing make suggestion and help if they can. They are very receptive of and polite to new member. If this sounds interesting to you, please send an email to [e-mail] for information on joining. You will find that the group runs a very loose chat.

Question: Are you allowed to talk if you have mic ?

[patcubed]

Folks, I am sure you are not interested in this melodrama of who did what and why Skippy was banned from the chat room. He has already started displaying some of the same behavior here that got him banned. That would be argumentative and distracting. Since it appear he plans on conveying a negative impression of the chat room, I would like the other side of the story out there. He knows the answer to his question about the microphone. I had to restrict his use of it and I told him that only one person (the commentator) was allowed to use the mike. For the record anyone in the chat room is welcome to use anyone of the three side rooms to have an audio conversation.

Skippy/Bread was banned for being a distraction, disruptive, and disingenuous. This is not to say he is a bad person. In fact he brought a lot of good to the room The story in a nutshell is this. He originally set up the chat room. He paid for the site and server out of his own pocket. One morning he became very angry because other members were using one of the side rooms for an audio chat. He gave every member 72 hours to leave his chat room and then he would change the passwords.

We rented a server and had another chat room up and running in 5 hours. About a month later Skippy/Bread started showing up in the new chat room under different names. We were able to identify his “chat room style” within 5 minutes. We would challenge his identity, because we did not want him making fools out of us and we wanted him to accept responsibility for the disregard he had shown the membership. He misrepresented himself to me as a woman to gain entry the last time when he was banned. This was the third time he had done this and I found it disingenuous. This is where his claim that he was banned because we wouldn’t let him use any name he wanted comes from. I won’t even mention the email, which I did not respond to, that he sent me after he was banned. All off a sudden the person who had claimed for so long not to be Bread was writing me using the name Bread.

Intelligent people that have the slightest interest in this soap opera will be able to separate the truth from the sour grapes. We have a great community of warm caring people in the chat room. Join us and find out. You can also ask any member how accurate this description is. I will not bore you with anymore posts like this nor respond to the pushback that I know Skippy/Bread will make. I am also the person who banned him so I make a good target.

[skippy]

I will talk about the events since Patcubed has decided to speak about them.

Back when I started the "Live Chat" room anyone and everyone was allowed to use voice except during peak trading time. We had several folks that would talk in the room. I started getting messages from the commentator aka secret1122 that folks needed to shut up and quit talking or he was going to remove them. That he and I should only be allowed to talk in the room. No one was talking during the trades, at the time I told someone about these events. Everyone that did talk left the room except for CB but he ceased to talk at anytime. I got an email from one of them that told me the commentator had busted them big time for talking.

The room was to be a place for all to enjoy. It was to be a place we could learn from each other. It was a place that everyone had an equal voice. One good thing about ventrillo is you could also open up a non-voice chat area where typed comments could be place. So folks started throwing out comments, stocks in this non-voice chat area. But that wasn't good enough for the commentator he would stop trading or get very upset about someone posting a stock in this non-voice chat area that he would blast the people or he would just stop talking or leave the voice chat all together.

At one point the commentator just stopped talking because he wanted me to do it. He reason was my trading results were blowing his out of the water. You see, in the live chat I would sometimes say... "Not Yet" "Wait" during his play by play action. Which honestly I don't think he minded that too much because what I said was right. Then he just stopped talking all together and threw a fit about something but honestly i can't remember what. I didn't want to be the commentator so it left the room with no one talking. Every now and then if the commentator was gone I would speak up but it isn't something I wanted to do on a day to day. I trade way to many stocks to speak and trade. On one day the commentator decided he would speak in another room on the ventrillo but not in the main room. Of course I wasn't going to allow that if you can't talk to everyone then there is no reason to speak at all. I was going to kick him from the room but hit the wrong button and tossed everyone out. I realized it was a mass boot and undid it. Once everyone came back in and over the course of the last month of the room I decided the room was on the wrong path. I gave the room 72 hrs to setup another account on ventrillo. It was Friday so I knew it wouldn't hurt traders as the market was closed.


It's funny how folks are isn't it. Like Patcubed would talk about the commentator and his child acting fits. Even Patcubed got blasted by the commentator but for reason he limps right in there.

I didn't enter the new chat room but continued helping some thru emails. I then asked a person for the new chat room information because I wanted a kid to listen in on the commentator. I was also allowing this kid to use one of my accounts to see the various charts it provided. Of course everyone thought the kid was me because he was posting things I was telling him into their chat. Of course they also thought it was me because they assumed that no one would allow someone to use their account. There is someone from their chat room using it right now as a matter of fact. Also this account was offered to others as well but they have declined to use it.

I kept getting emails about the results of the new "Live Chat" were not going so well. They would ask me to come back into the room to help give them the "Wait", Not now it's too early, or I would agree with the commentator that the stock looked good at that point. I thought about it and decided I would go in but not use the name breadman. I got busted because I put in the non-voice chat room that a stock was going to have a big drop and it did 5%-8% or I would post in the non voice room my entry's or exit on a stock. Again that busted me out as well because the stock would move into profit. Of course not wanting them to know who I was I said "No, I am not breadman. But they kept saying you have got to be. I guess the trading results was the dead give away since they had been struggling prior. A few folks knew it was me. Now that should address the DISRUPTIVE & Distraction charge since they are one in the same :-)~... Patcubed, Secret1122 was so sure it was me that they kept hounding, speaking to Susantrader (the name i was using) as it was me. Asking Susantrader what do you think about this or that stock. what do you think about the entry or exit of a stock. Why didn't they just shut up and leave this Susantrader alone? So the Disruptive doesn't count, when in fact they were honed in on this person. My thoughts were to go in there and help the ones that requested my help. But I was told either enter with the name Breadman or I would be banned. I was banned :-)

Patcubed on the use of microphone.. funny I did log in a couple times with breadman or was it just once. I don't remember. Your commentator asked me by voice several times "Breadman, what do you think about that" So i guess it's a selective process.

My email to Patcubed after my ban was simple and to the point.

Wow, not once in the year that I ran that room did I ban anyone. Nor did I not allow anyone to talk. Secret asked me to shut down CB from talking but I refused because he wasn't talking during trading time. But yet you control the room like a dictator..... It's sad to see someone of your age act in such a matter. I choose to come in so people would leave me alone. I get flooded with requests for help. I wanted to be left alone.... is that to much to ask? I paid for that room for over a year and it came time to renew it. I choose not too because of the way secret was acting and I didn't want to be part of it. It's funny how you used to talk about him acting as a child and now your sucking his ass. Doing whatever he wants you to do. what a world we live in.. It just proves what I stated about folks with obamo ties.... dumbass's



That's the email.. so Patcubed comment "I won’t even mention the email, which I did not respond to" made it seem like the email was really bad. I don't think it was bad... well if your a OBAMO lover it might offend you.

I guess in closing I would like to say The Live Chat room is trading on nothing more then a Volume Push and a price point nothing more.

I am sooooo glad I hold true to my beliefs... If I am going to say anything about someone I will say it to their face. Those of you that said things about your commentator but are now not saying nothing... Well Shame on you. If he knew, he would leave your chat again. From what I have seen using the name Susantrader is that the room is pretty much trading all over the place. Folks trading their stocks... Nothing like I thought it would be at the start....

Good Luck everyone

btw the old vent server is up and running still.... from time to time a few of us are in there.

[traderrick]

Gap Up: SI,TZOO,TSL
Gap Dn: NOK

[traderrick]

For those that may like the cheap stocks YONG is up 60% largely on the Morgan Stanley investment.

[skippy]

YONG will be a coin toss.... but interesting.. NOK could pan out for a good swing trade but use caution... TZOO, TSL could continue to run up good.....

[secret1122]

I'm going to try and keep this short and to the point. Obviously there are some people that would love to see our chat fail or to at least scare people off from joining by making a lot of false claims. I'll make a simple request to anyone interested in day trading that is on the fence about this chat due to certain claims; get the chat info from Patcubed and sit with us for one morning. If you're nervous about the arguing, so-called chaos, people being booted on a daily basis, or the fact that the chat is"pretty much trading all over the place" hurting your ability to make money, then just sit in with us and don't trade unless you feel comfortable. You will very quickly figure out who's telling the truth, and who isn't. Do us and yourself a favor and make your own decision on how things are run and how the people act in our chat. If you feel it's not for you then you are free to leave at any time.

We are a very happy group, we get along like family, and we trade slow and steady making it easy for anyone to make a profit. One truth that was put out there is that we trade "on nothing more then a volume push and a price point nothing more." It's a simple strategy that allows all of us, expert or novice to make money with little to no risk. It works and it's proven in the chat daily.

Once again, there's no need for me to respond to any negative comments or lies. There's no need for me to try to argue our side of the story. I'll let anyone reading here make their own informed decision. Come in for a morning (or as long as you'd like to stay) and make a decision for yourself. I won't try to tell you what I THINK you're going to feel, you just tell me afterward what you thought. The chat speaks for itself when you're there. There's absolutely nothing to lose by just sitting in (trading or not) while reading the written chat and listening to your computer speakers.

[skippy]

One thing about ventrillo it allows for chat logs to be recorded... It allows for private chat to be recorded.... So lets say we take a 25,000.00 challenge. Whomever can prove who is lying the other party agree's to pay up the 25,000.00 challenge. The challenge money will be donated to Autism Awareness. So I am in for this challenge.. anyone else?

[traderrick]

Gap Up: GLNG,SEE
Gap Dn: AMSC,LNG,NOK

JOSB has low regular volume but it is being hit on earnings and may be worth watching.

[carostk]

Hey Bull, glad to see you back.
