I bought in the money calls on AUY today at 0.95

Sold my AGU calls today too for gains, still holding the stock.

I expect the bill to pass and stocks to rally, gold to rise o nthe news too. however, it will only drag things on, ultimately, we will still have a hellish economy even depression.; September 24, 2008 at 11:26 AM
Anonymous said...: I will be shorting or buying puts for BBBY before market close today, they have a habbit of "beating estimates" though, even though their sales are falling. So there's some risk.; September 24, 2008 at 11:28 AM

I need some help...

Ok, so with SIL, I was in school today and was unable to catch the 4.16 high.

It seems that it held above its resistance level of 3.00$. Tomorrow I am banking that there will be another run, and the upper resistance level of 4.00$ will be challenged.

You have been trading stocks WAY longer and more often than I have and I would just like some friendly advice.

Thanks,

BUY ON THE DIP said...: Kevin,

with a SPEC play like SIL, we say take profits. who knows whats really going on? we like the long SILVER idea, but SIL is a bit too spec.

and on DRYS, lets hold, hoping it stays above todays 52Wk Low: 43.65
...if it hits $41ish we'll probably get out.; September 24, 2008 at 2:36 PM
