PILBF......long

RDN (Radian Group - Insurance)
It's trading about the midpoint of a rather narrow channel. finviz.com/quote.ashx?t=rdn 

[kadee79]

BLNK, short....EV charging stations.  It's been going up, so time for a down play.  If it keeps going up then I can sell what I have left of it.

    TRCH     (Long)      Torchlight Energy Resources Inc.

    Company located in  Plano, Tex.  Development of oil and Natural

    Gas properties in the U.S.   Founded 30 Oct. 2007.

    If you look at a graph of this one, it's more suitable for a much

   longer time period than one week.   Maybe ..  Relative new company,

   But has had 2 nice spikes in the last 6 months.  I really want it in Clark's

   wonderful contest systems.       Arch.

           (9am./Mon./ tex.time/ 28 June 2021)

            One wk. you win 5 days; the next week your horse

            doesn't EVEN SHOW UP.

            Big Charts has posted:  TRCH  [ no symbol ]

            Clark, I may not even be in your contest this week.

            Arch.

When I saw the results of the day on my watch list...I knew I'd be at the bottom.  But keep going up so I can sell my few remaining shares.  I did really well on the ones I sold earlier...caught it at a good high back then.

[architecto25]

I was surprised that Clark did include my horse ( and I could not even get his name

into the system)…….I do have a hand done 6 month graph of TRCH.

It shows the start of the 6 months; the 2 peaks, then the drop to the low.

And I really wonder why the systems aren't typing the TRCH in their blurbs.

I'll just bet there's some stock juggling. The chart started at about $.75 then

rose to about $4. then dropped back to about $l. then rose again up to

about $9.30. then dropped back down to about $5.

IT JUST MAY BE PUBLISHED CORRECTLY SOME DAY..

ModE98 leads the way as the race approaches halfway. kadee76 is second and the benchmark third.

kadee76 takes over the lead with two days to go. The benchmark is second and architecto25 third. I think architecto25's TRCH has not yet traded this week. I will look into this further tomorrow but I found an article today which I will link on the follow-up post.

(9:45pm./ Wed./ Tex.time/ 30 June 2021)

Clark, you are absolutely FANTASTIC.

I just read some of that data you logged on. It looks like the past history and also the future

history of this stock ( TRCH ) might be very interesting.My history on it: I just saw a symbol I had not seen before; I posted in on BigCharts, like I usually do.

 Put it on my "SOFT4" graph that I started a long time ago. It's "STRENGHT OF

TREND; 4 WK. MOVING AVG.   THAT'S IT...… A 6 MONTH CHART.   but then the

horse didn't show up to start Monday's race. It's a hobit of mine to sometimes scribble

a chart on a sheet of notebook paper....which I did.

Maybe the symbol might get established again sometime in the future again.

ARCH

         (9:45pm./ Fri./ 2 July/ Tex.time/

         Clark, I really didn't expect you to straighten out

         the horse confusion that I created.

         THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH. I'LL TRY TO SELECT

         THE HORSE BLANKETS BETTER FROM HERE TO THE

         FUTURE...…

              Arch.

TRCH was replaced by MMAT (Metamaterials) in a merger acquisition at the end of the trading day Friday Jun 25. So I will replace TRCH with MMAT and use the Monday open for MMAT unless someone has a better idea. investorplace.com/2021/06/mmat-stock-meta-materials-hits-nasdaq-as-trch-stock-merger-closes/
