    Looks like it may be coming up off a double bottom from earlier this year & could head higher plus insider buying always a good sign imo

    don't know how you do it everyday - must have nerves of steel - i'm stressed enough with buy & hold for 2-3 days - sometimes will hold for a week or more!

    Think anyone playing in the stock market has nerves of steel BUT this play was/is crazy compared to other trades that don't move up/down as fast & my stomach is still not back to normal & it's been over an hour since last scalp lol. Seem to be moving more into taking cash daily rather than holding for more than a couple days -- have a couple bags that didn't do what they were supposed to do & they have made me more scared to hold anything for any period of time b/c never know what tomorrow will bring in the stock market world. Although, have also lost some money selling many WAY to soon too but would rather be safe than sorry plus have a small closet that doesn't have any room for another bag :D

    When you "scalp" - what's the average number of cents? Totally clueless....

    For whatever reason, REV: $18.10 +20% in 3 days - bonds pay 9% - like the bonds better than the stock.
