1) "PSYCLE SENSE sm":
So, we are getting tons of bounces again, among extended stocks, off oversold V.S.T. bottoms/support....but not tons of new highs, yet, right ? So, given that you already know at least something about the patterns, when/if stocks in sec. (7) below, rise to their previously toppy levels without breaking out, between today and my next NL, Thur., I am assuming you will know what to do....and, when/if they break out, you will see it....all I can do is give you the seemingly best potential "puttables", and hope you learn how, and catch some, and cut losses, and avoid emotional ties, etc. Watch for some S.T. double-tops this week....and, note I also added more Long-side issues, in possible "catch-up" pops, as taught in my "Ind. Group Rotation" booklet....
Last, as to Longs from sec. (6) below, take a few minutes to try to view a different bunch every day, instead of trying to view all of them at once....there is no excuse for you not have viewed the charts of every single stock in sec. (6) or (7), over time, especially since many have BEEN on the lists for weeks already !!!
Please appreciate, how much time/effort I put in, to put ALL applicable,
staged, stocks, longs and puts, which fit learnable, and actionable, "PSYCLE sm"
patterns, into each NL....Sometimes fewer, sometimes more....Whatever I find that
best fits "PSYCLE sm" stages, which YOU can learn/take advantage of, for YOUR
educational/trading benefit, I will put into each NL....again, the "Most
Actionable, Do-able, stocks, Here/Now", are in Section (3). And note, the
"learning/feeling/sentiment" items, are in section (2) and (8). Longer lists and
I.G.'s, are in section (6) and (7)....and all follow-ups, are in sections (4) and
(5). Very clear sections. You have No excuses for not taking advantage.
3) Most recent Hypothetical
"PSYCLE sm" transactions, to be mimicked, and referred back to:
4) Already given out in previous NL's,
assumed Hypothetical "Long-side" positions:(issues moving since last time, worthy of following-up, and/or
mentioning, because of recent price moves, still remaining long in most all of
them, unless otherwise noted):
6) Now--- Here are Other, Fuller lists,
of still-Depressed, Long Buys, near their recent Lows Only, for potential Rises
towards resistance, always Diversified (w/close stops, when/if their basing or
"EVB" patterns break down): 7) other, still extended/potentially
Toppy, "Puttables", near recent Highs Only, for potential Price Drops, using,
Only, L.T., in-the-money Puts Only, Always Diversified, w/stops if patterns abort
to the upside, for potential drops towards their 200 DMA's, or lower (NOTE: again, if they are already down appreciably from their highs, do NOT
chase them down, right ?): 8) "PSYCLE sm" Lesson for
today:
a) Important Industry Group (Rotation) notes: 1) again, we added those Oil Services which did not break....some are indeed holding at halfway between the top and the bottom of their base, see it ? ....2) finally, Fri. after the close, KWHY-tv began to notice the "gaming" stocks are higher.... late, as usual, in the "PSYCLE sm" pattern, yes ? Like I said, they do not read my NL....I gave you MIR, CIR, HLT, HET, herein, near their lows.... 3) also note, how the DJ Utility Avg. has risen, from the 285 to 289 area, to 297 recently, oversold bounce, as expected .
b) 1) another local Home in the area where I "time" my tops and bottoms, showed a "reduced" price sign last weekend, as the "double-top-at-best" in res. R.E. here continues to unfold.... 2) as predicted, beginning to see some takeovers among Energies...."gas trans." companies so far....watch for more, over time....
c) more incorrect/improper/misleading Media comments from "fundamentalists/
companies/mags", etc., vs. illogical/contrary/unlinked stock prices moves, etc.: 1) another article in recent WSJ, regarding how many "corporate stock buybacks" have not only NOT occured in reality as announced (re-read my item on this historical fact in an earlier NL here), those that did occur, have NOT automatically led to higher stock prices for those issues....again, proving my "no direct links" concept.....his other angle, as I teach also, was that buybacks, when they fulfill (which is not often, as I told you), are often not the best use of corporate money, anyway....
d) more, late, and/or misleading, Brokerage/NL writer/Analyst comments: 1) crude oil itself rose 60 cents, Thu., and more, Mon. 22nd, as some Oil Svc. stocks bottom....still, I am not upset with real small cut losses therein, because we still caught others .... 2) cnbc, Mon. 15th, 9:30 am, a story on how many stocks are splitting, and the guy actually said, "stocks that have a history of splitting do so much better than others...." HUH ??? excuse me, but wouldn't the "so much better" performance be, and have been, in buying those stocks WHEN THEY WERE MUCH, MUCH LOWER, before ANY splits ??? His statement is a fallacy, and misleading and incorrect.... 3) hey, we got an analyst who agrees, 2/10, at SoundView, who raised PSFT from a "hold' to a "buy" at 19., recently....his 12-month target is 27.... 4) and while we're on the subject, why is it that every analyst has a 12-month target, and/but, not a 6-month target, or a "should rise/fall to such-and-such a resistance/support level" target ? and, what if it rises or falls to their price earleier ? are we alerted what to do then ? and, last, how come one NEVER hears them also include a stop-loss protection price, up front ? re-read my "Media" and "Scenarios" booklets....
5) a great moment in "analyst" history ? Fri. 5th, an analyst was quoted as saying that ATT, down from 95 to 88 (as if it were cheap, up from 35 not too long ago, dig ?), that it is "a gift from God, giving the public another chance to buy this great stock"....an actual quote, gang....he also said, "this is truly a healthy consolidation".....famous last words, both ? ....6) Viewing 2,5000 individual charts this past weekend, I was again struck, by the HUGE number of Insider Buys, a while ago, in TONS of stocks, as I pointed out here to you, which are currently still very much "under water", which proves, once again, my special finding that "insider" transactions, in and of themselves, are of nowhere nearly "D.A.F.P.P.V." as "the 95 %" misbelieve.... i.e., "just some insider buys or sells alone" are of little or NO help, timing-wise, WITHOUT the correct/proper "PSYCLE sm" staged chart pattern !!! Re-read my "Scenarios" and "Media" booklets.... 6) Gruntal's J. Battataglia, said, Mon. 22nd, "DELL is cheap here" ....hmmmm, stock rises from $ 2. to 110., only pulls back to 80. or so....cheap ? not with 60 PE, 80 X book value....See its 200 DMA and support around 65-70 ? we shall see....
e) real good, long articles in the L.A. Times, Sun. 21st, you should read, regarding "day traders", and "minute trading" (my term)....besides obvious proofs and that very few are doing well at it (what a shock, huh), the message is exactly as I teach: much of the general lack of consistent success is due to impatience, ignorance, greed, emotional and psychological stuff, failure to cut losses, lack of pattern recognition, and unrealistic expectations and demands, etc. The statement that struck me most, was the writers' obvservation that it all seemed to him like just a bunch of adults playing video games with real money....No need for me to go on regarding this subject....but NOWHERE in any of these articles are "price stops" or "preset price targets" or "pattern recognition" or "industry group rotation" or "puts" mentioned....They operate more on emotional need, vs. learning what might be better/best to do....'nuff said.
As you have seen the last several months, how well one does, just "doing" the
best individual stocks, and Ind. Groups, technically/sentiment-wise, mostly
long-side, while ignoring, or going contrary to, 95 % of all Media messages, and
"indexes/averages" comments, from the peanut gallery ? By just getting my
output, alone, you do much better, and save time, by not having to even try to
"seek, and process" tons of other, useless fundamental info., anyway....and we
also help remove potential emotional problems before they begin.
Also re-read "the Guide" for how I derive the estimated % percentage Gains I
show herein, on assumed Hypothetically closed-out trades (always assumed to have
been in Options, where applicable/suitable, and on margin where
available/suitable/logical, and on a cash basis where not, as per "PSYCLE sm"
tenets)....and "bal." in section (3), means, "the balance" of assumed long
positions, assuming a "1/2 and 1/2 pos." sale....and, "css" means "covered
previous short sale", where no puts options existed....
and/but, longs, ALLP, PKD, MKA, MT, HL, and puts, FTEN, AMGN, MEDI., UFPI., MWD, KSU, CMB, for VQ, very small losses, of little overall consequence to a properly diversified portfolio....
NOTE: while most of the $ 5 to $ 10. stocks are listed here as
"stocks on margin" ("stk.on.mgn."), if one Had bought L.T., in-the-money calls
options, their % Gains/Losses would have been multiplied, higher, right ? We
just prefer not to buy any Calls on most stocks under $ 10., unless their patterns
are phenomenal, as their options premiums tend to be too high, vs. just buying
those stocks on Margin, with close stops, where suitable, instead, with less
risk, and similar reward potential--- stocks themselves have no "premium", right
? and, of course, if one just bought said longs for cash, and not on margin, the % Gains/Losses would be relatively smaller, though still excellent, for such short
holding periods, yes ? also, obviously, these "transactions" have always been listed, from biggest % Gains, to smallest, then losses....
(Read again, carefully, for New, "re-added" repeats) ADM @ 15+, AGU @ 8.06, APAC @ 3 9/16, ARG @ 8+, AZC @ 9/16, BEZ @ 19+, BGO @ 3/4, BIR @ 4 1/8, BLM @ 2.06, CAU @ 0.31, CCH @ 3/16, CLCDF @ 9/16, CPU @ 10++, CXI. @ 5/16, DSGIF @ 3.06, EAR @ 5/8, ECO @ 1 11/16, ELY @ 10+, ESV @ 8 7/8, FLS @ 16, GKI. @ 2 7/8, GLBL @ 5 9/16, HLX @ 4 3/8, HMY @ 6.06, IMG @ 5 1/2, INPR @ 5-, ISV @ 1 5/16, MGN @ 2+, MLP @ 9+, NE @ 12+, NGX @ 1/2, NOV @ 2.06, OFIS @ 5+, PAM @ 3 9/16, PAR @ 7 1/8, PSFT @ 18-, RDC @ 8++, REF @ 6++, RYO @ 0.28, RXSD @ 13-, SAA @ 0.75, SEW @ 3 13/16, SSC @ 11/16, SYC @ 12+, TBP @ 5+, TOX @ 3/16, TPS @ 13/16, UBIX @ 5-, UMR @ 11/16, VGZ @ 3/16, WCCI. @ 3/4, WEL @ 2.06....most are still EVB's, bases, and/or low-priceds ...."buy low", right ?
NOTE: as I teach in the "Green Guide" Booklet, and herein, countless times, you should already understand/know, that, often, there is NOT "just one day, or price" when my stocks become "long buys" or "long puts"....some stocks may hit around originally suggested prices, 2, 3, 4 times, etc., sometimes over a period of weeks, as they may form EVB's, double-bottoms and/or bases at times, right ? When/if they rise/fall in between those times, I will follow-up those moves, in section (4) and (5) anyway....this is a Positive, a Benefit, for you....Remember, I have subscribers who ARE already in stocks which have already moved before YOU may have just noticed them herein, dig ? And there ARE many subscribers who ARE viewing MANY of the charts of the stocks herein, first....and there ARE many subscribers who DO want "longer, more thorough, teaching" NL's/items from me....I give it all, for all your situational needs....
*** therefore, remember, all my given stocks REMAIN buyable/puttable, every
time they hit originally suggested prices, unless/until they break their patterns
....even if weeks pass by !!! "Just get close", and do everything else properly: the stops, VIEWING the charts BEFORE acting, NOT forcing trades, NO emotion, etc., and, of course, LEARNING the stages/patterns of price, ind. group, and sentiment/media, patterns.
** Important: took, WEB, FCX, CBJ, OE, --- Off the pot. Long buys list, before they might have been Hypothetically "bt.".
Note, I try to give "something for every type of investing/trading
desire/account/objective", including some real cheapies, some $ 5-10. stocks,
some over $ 20. stocks, and some "names" blue chips --- either, for straight
Cash, and/or on Margin, and/or L.T., in-the-money Options, etc., so that all my
valued subscribers have Choices, and for proper Diversification --- all still
having similar, exploitable patterns, in each NL.
**** Newly BOUGHT, long "PUTS" (or "short sales" if no puts),
for potential Drops: alphabetically by symbol: (new ones) AFL @ 49+, ALSI. @ 68, ARMHY @ 101, AVP @ 44-, CSN @ 20+, IMNX @ 142+, NEO @ 18+, NTRS @ 88+, TECH @ 25, TR @ 46-,
(and, note, some "new" repeats again) CNCX @ 50-, CSGS @ 80-, ESRX @ 72, GEOC @ 39+, GLW @ 49+, GMST @ 66+, HLI. @ 58, LIN @ 39+, LLTC @ 104, LRCX @ 38+, OK @ 45+, PBI. @ 68+, TYC @ 79, UMG @ 56-....note how some of these popped back up, allowing us to catch them, then fell again, yes ?
and/but, Took, UIHIA, MUSE, COST, ISSX, LOW, KBL, HDI., GTE, USW, Off pot. Puts list, before "put", as they aborted their patterns immediately (also see recent past issues taken off, here). IMPORTANT: sometimes, just in the few hours after I send this NL to the web site, a stock might break its S.T. umbrella top, or its depressed EVB/base pattern....And, of course, sometimes suggested stocks hit their "buy, or put" levels in between NL's, in which case they are still added, as above....So I am assuming, you actually View their recent charts, BEFORE you consider buying any Longs or Puts, and you will see/know that the pattern is still O.K., and therefore buy/not buy them if their immediate patterns have aborted....this takes just seconds each to check/do, and will keep you from buying Puts/Calls on issues which abort budding patterns quickly after publication of my NL's, then incorrectly blaming me, when that part of the process is your own doing.
*** and/but, among stocks recently given you herein, in sections (6) and (7)
below, we "just Missed", NAUT, ALR, CSE, CWC, NHR, PRD, SSM, VTA, FTL, CFS, SCY, as Longs/Buys near very recent lows, and, ESPRY, NEON, RTN/A, NLCS, MFNX, DDDF, DNEX, BMY, PKS, COX, TER, GNE, FDS, CM, as Puts/Shorts, near recent highs....as one of the few honest guys in this biz, I will always tell you here, also when we "miss" actually catching suggested ideas, so you can "view/see" and LEARN their charts/patterns, for your educational benefit. Also, by viewing such charts, tells us whether the market itself is providing more bottoms/tops, at that time, right ? Another reason why it is important to consider ALL my output, each NL....Again, the idea is to Learn the "Patterns" of previously "given/done" ideas, for YOUR future benefit.
**** note: ("sos") means "Sell On Strength" (on a
bounce up towards resistance, and/or where it broke down from)....("S") means
Sell it here (if still right at/near the listed price level).
ELCO 2 3/4 up 1 1/4, ALN 5 3/4 up 1, PAH 5 7/8 up 7/8, HET 18 7/8 up 2 7/8 (sos), FLH 9 1/4 up 1 1/2, IDTC 13 7/8 up 1 3/4, PSFT 19 1/2 up 1 3/4, REF 7 3/8 up 3/4, UNO 8 3/8 up 3/4, MIR 20 up 2 (sos), BHI. 18 3/4 up 1, RML 20 1/4 up 1 3/8, WLM 10 1/4, DRC 32 5/8 up 1 3/8, up/further, since last time here....and, NIN 20+, higher still....
note: please try to appreciate, that I have some subscribers who want "real quick and out" trades, and others, who want the "multi-month holds for bigger potential gains" trades....by VIEWING the "higher still" list above, you will hopefully learn better PERSPECTIVE in the overall chart patterns, and what can really be accomplished at times, if one lets them....another, of many reasons why we are so against "intra/day-trading": why anyone would purposely limit one's potential, and purposely increase one's stress, and actually want to spend more time having to watch and process more things, on purpose, is beyond illogic. With my "PSYCLE sm", we trade less, hold positions longer, do not have to watch every minute, and have much less stress.
and/but, then, seeing Many pullbacks, MGN 2 7/8 up 7/8, NPRO 2 1/4 up 1/2, BLM 2 1/2 up 1/2, AOI. 3 1/4 up 5/8, TFN 6 1/8 up 3/4, COE 5 1/4 up 1/2, RTC 5 3/8 up 3/8, GYMB 10 1/4 up 1, NPSI. 13 7/8 up 1 1/4, NDE 10 7/8 up 5/8, GGC 15 5/8 up 7/8, CENT 16 7/8 up 1, BHI. 17 1/2, ELY 11 1/8, HAL, MCL, UBIX, PAR, CBMI., NPRO, HAL, MANU, CPU, CFS, UMR, UPX, CCLR, TFN, ISSI., GLBL, CYM, ISCO, ESV, KRY, WFT, TAROF, IMG, ICI., SEW, SAMC, ARG, SAA, WKGP, FNL, PMK, LXR, SUL, SSC, WLM, CCH, BS, Oil Service, Metals....some of these are also in "ms" list below....
again, please do not be afraid of buying the "Real Depressed
Stocks", even in pension accounts, always diversifying, with close stops....
Again, you Must buy at least a FEW, minimum, at one time, to increase your chances of being in the bigger movers....Lesson: there is NO such thing as "but, Jim, which 1 or 2 are your favorites ?" It is impossible, and illogical, to expect anyone to be ble to choose just 1 or 2, out of 2,500 issues....maybe 5 to 10, long-siders, and also 5 to 10, put-siders, sometimes, but never just 1 or 2....One must also eliminate one's "PSY-chological need for excitement", and/or of "instant/S.T. gratification".
and/but, these
already assumed Longs, are acting weaker S.T., and/or must strengthen, and/or
must strengthen "again/anew", and/or must "break above recent high or else",
and/or are sales on strength ("sos") to/towards/near resistance:
(note, some of these are also in "pb" list above....obviously, any stock near its lows, or close to breaking "must strengthen" or else, yes ?) MANU, RXSD, CMND, ESOL, OFIS, PSFT, NWAC, UBIX, APAC, HMY, ESV, ADM, HDG, HAL, SAMC, HBI., AOI., MRII., SAA, SEW, GKI., MSN, TPS, TBP, MKA, UPX, GDC, NDE, CPU, LFB, LXR, WEL, WKGP, PAR, MCL, WEL, SSC, SOC, TOX, CAU, WS, cheap golds, oil services....
5) Already given out in
previous NL's, assumed Hypothetically long "Puts" positions:
(issues moving since last time, worthy of
following-up, still remaining long in these Puts, unless otherwise noted):
and, RMBS, SNPS, RESM, ADBE, TROW, RAD, fell to their 200 DMA, and NXLK fell to its 50 DMA, and, CBRNA, ZLC, GAC, are approaching its 200 DMA, and, PMCS approached its 50 DMA....
Note: these have always been listed, by "number of points falling", from
most, to least...."(sow)" means, "Sell long puts On next Weakness, towards/near
support"...."(S)" means sell/sold their long Puts right near here, and/or as in
section (3) above....I follow-up every idea mentioned, for your benefit....
remember, these are NOT "overnite" trades, they take a little time to fulfill, so
please have some patience, and no emotion, nor antsiness....let them do their
thing.
**** IMPORTANT, you MUST view the 200 DMA's of our Puttables, past and
present, for their potential support targets/areas/prices....
* but, then, these, are
acting too Strong, and/or are Bouncing, and/or must weaken anew, and/or are sales
on pullbacks/weakness (sow): (some new names here) many, many bounces: LLTC +6, VISX +6, -7, EMC +6, ETEC +5, ADLAC +6, LLTC +5, COX +5, -3, LVLT +3, VRSN +4 1/2, PMCS +3, ESRX +6, -1 1/2, NSCP +3, CMVT -3, GEOC +2, GDT +2, CCU -2, MHK + 1 1/2, BEL -1 1/2, +1 1/2, ANSR +2, -1, MM +1 1/2, -1 1/2 (S), JCOR -2, GTSG + 1 1/2, TAGS +1, AVP +1, RX +1, BOBJY, NVLS, AOL +12, JBL, MHK, CYMI., TYC, RNWK +2 1/2, XMCM, CTAS, LRCX, QWST, TLAB, ADCT, GAC, VOD, GGO, DLX, QLGC, SLVN, CNMD, XLNX, ALO, TCOMA, MSBC, XEIKY, GLW, LIN, GPSI., ZD, SYY, TYC, FAM, PBI., IIN, OK, NT....remember, on some of these, I am just looking for follow-through, to fall below recent lows....
Remember, we either buy our
Puts right up near each stock's high, or not at all....but you can still view
their charts, to "see" previously formed/worked/aborted "PSYCLE sm" patterns, to
hopefully Learn from.
"Potential Longs, by Industry Groups,
for Rotation":
some decent bases here, and many decent EVB's
and double-or-triple- bottoms, (but, again, Not when/if any of these make new
lows here, and, NOT if they are already "up", much, off lows, right ?):
NOTE: obviously, given recent pops, has gotten more difficult to find "depresseds still right near their lows", so keep that in mind....we'll sometimes pay an eentsy bit more, but will NOT "pay up" much.
"Leisure/Entertainment": (besides, ELY, PIN, PRD,
WCCI.), found some other real cheapies in the Mansfield charts, which I share
below here.
Computer/Techs: please see Techs, listed, in the "watching" section, just below.
(Y2K) "Year 2000": (ZITL, SAA, UBIX, CMND, Only near recent lows)
Prec.Metals (NGX, TVX, GLDR, CCH, VGZ, CAU, BGO, RYO, KRY, some real cheapies, riskier, most need more work/time)
"Basic Inds." (Chem., Farm, Steel, Copper) (WLM, BS, BIR, RTC, CYM, CSE, AGU, FNL, AGR, IGL, AG)
Energy/and Oil Svc. (UMR, VRC, BHI., ESV, RDC, near their recent lows, Only....also see section just below here)
Biotech/Health/Medical (TAROF, FHCC, CBMI., NOV, GNSA, TOX, CCLR, TXB, HIV, LH)
Consumer/Retail/Apparel/Shoes (KFI., MSN, UNO, BLM, HBI.)
Hotel/Gaming/REIT (HMT, MIR, ILX, PAM, HET, CIR, SER)
And, as I pointed out earlier here, some depressed R.E.I.T./Financials/ Mtg.-type/R.E., stocks, many with huge Insider Buying a while ago, some with very high "potential" dividends (more boring, though), may shape up ahead....watching, in no particular order, add, CNO, AIJ, to, PAH, EOP, SMT, WIR, LTC, HOT, LSN, BD, PRT, SMT, WDN, RTC, CPT, ARI., NHR, BRE, AAC, ALF, AML, BNP, BOY, BRI., CPP, CRO, PMC, ENN, FBG, NDE, JPR, MAA, RFS, MT, if you need some maybe's, on pullbacks only)
and/but, Important: also, took these Off the pot. long Buy
list, Before they might have been Hypothetically "bt.": KEG, FCX, TMO, BD, Z., --- were taken Off....These/they just need more work, technically....we do NOT "Guess" at bottoms....we want only the EVB's, which set up properly....we MUST also see the cathartic/high volume, in "PSYCLE sm" stage 7", first.
We are Also "Watching" --- as potential EVB's/bottoms, near recent lows ONLY:
add, APM, AVM, AXE, BCF, BCP, CGN, CS, CWC, DHC, FEG, FIT., FTL, FWC, GSB, HPH, HXL, ICP, IDTC, NVX, ORI., PB, PCAR, PLC, RAL, RBO, SCS, SCZ, TGX, TXM, UAG, UQM, WLV, ZITL,

(alphabetically by symbol) AAC, ACE, ADGO, ADM, ALN, ALR, AOI., APAC, ARG, BCF, BDR, BEZ, BJS, BMC, BMG, BSX, BTC, BXH, CFS, CFK, CLCDF, CNB, CNJ, CNU, COL, CP, CPU, CXI., CYB, DE, DETC, DO, DRC, EAR, ECO, ELCO, FAX, FGI., FLH, FTS, GGC, GKI., GLBL, GNCI., GW, HDG, HL, HMY, HLX, IAD, IMG, INPR, ISSI., ISV, JLG, LKI., LXR, MAH, MB, MGN, MLP, MLT, MRVC, NEM, NOI., NPSI., NWAC, OLGC, PMA, PRD, PSFT, REF, REV, RML, SEW, SOC, SSM, SSN, SWK, SYC, TAM, TBP, TDP, TIE, TPS, UPX, UWW, VLO, WAC, WKGP, WND, WTT, VSNR, still, most all as "EVB's" (again, note, most are "Techs", with some "Finls., Foreign, Health, Energy")....some here, some Not just yet, as some still need more work, technically....and/but most, only on pullbacks towards lows....and/but, not any of these, when/if they make new lows or break budding bases/patterns....don't "force" trades....
note, we re-added some previously given names, above here....
*** NEW: these are longer, tighter depressed bases, directly from
longer-term, 2 1/2-year, "Mansfield" charts (note, no sexiness here):
health, medical/pharm. (AIMM, MRII., NPRO, TAROF, VMRX)
comp./tech./s'ware: (CSRE, GTSI., LSKIC, MIDI., OBJS, KTEC, PNCL)
leisure/entert.: (SHOW, FAIRE, ONST, WCCI., (all real risky/cheap)
capital goods: (DETC, DSGIF, FAVS, ISCO, JPEI.) (most are bigger companies)
Note, some of these have high $ cash/share, little or no debt, and/or earnings, for those of you who value those things....others are REAL
cheapies/very risky....there are others I am checking, with similar patterns,
will let you know....mind you, these are NOT "very-short-term" trades....but some
subscribers wanted some longer, depressed basers, so here they are....just
providing something for every need....
**** The potential Longs above are chosen, First, by their EVB, or "base"
technical chart patterns, then, I do do a "little Fundamentals research" on each,
to make sure they are viable companies, with no "hidden time bombs"....Last, on
some of these, you are going to have to stretch your time-frame out a bit, this
time around, as some of these may, like after the last few mini-crashes, take
weeks instead of days, months instead of weeks, to form any bases/EVB's, and/or
rise, dig ?
Fuller, Potential Puts
list, by Industry groups where practical, near their highs ONLY --- do NOT "chase
down" much:
note: this list supercedes all previous ones....these are

note, we are revisiting more previously given stocks....obviously, a Huge list here, as I told you to expect recently....VIEW the charts, before acting....
**** the Best Puttable Industry Groups: in no particular order, and, understanding we have already HAD some nice drops, Extended and
at least Semi-parabolic, Retail, Cap. Goods, Blue Chips, Consumer, Banks, Health/Medical/Drug/Biotech, Insurance, Finance, Computer, Internet, Aero./Def., Food/Bev., Banks, High-PE techs, and all Tele.-Commun., near their recent Highs ONLY, w/close stops above their patterns....also, note how we are revisiting some of our past Puttable stocks....but some "bells" have become iffy, not yet....
VIEW THE CHARTS....SEE where the 200 DMA's are....LEARN THE
PATTERNS/STAGES
repeating the recent reminder lesson here: continuing our "tops" concepts, viewing the S.T. "EVT's" on my puttables list, you can now "see" many of the real-short-term double-and-triple tops in many extended stocks I gave you recently ....the vast majority of the 'intraday pops' those stocks had, last the 12th, failed, below those tops....When/if the recent lows get broken, look out....for example, "if" stocks like, AHAA, ALTR, AMCC, ASND, ATHM, AMP, AOL, ANN, ALO, T, (just among many other "A's"), were to break their most recent lows, that would complete a more serious rolling "upside-down triangle" and/or H & S tops, which I mentioned in recent NL's might be setting up, chart-wise....There are so many more potential tops around (see above), and seasonality here has tended not to be so great, as I said, one would figure at least some of our Puttables will break further, which has occured already with many....but we will still take at least 1/2 pos. Gains around their 50- or -200- DMA's support, and prefer new Put buying (replacing those with) in new stocks which have NOT yet fallen at all, vs. continuing to hold those that have already fallen to those levels, dig ? hope this helps clarify further....
I have been so busy, expending so much time/effort, researching, finding, and giving the ideas I do in each NL lately, I have not had time to give more "Lessons" here lately, nor to finish 3 more real valuable "Booklets"....Besides all the previous Lessons you have hopefully gleaned from all my past materials, NL's, ideas, and my (7) educational Booklets, I re-ran "the seven sequential stages of my "PSYCLE sm", from 12/7 NL, through the 12/28 NL.... refer back to, and re-read, those section (8) lessons, any time....hope they helped....also take this time to VIEW charts from section (3) and (6)....
NOTE: just a quick reminder, that, as per the green "Guide", a stock herein
may certainly be found, in 1, 2, 3, even 4, different sections of my NL at any
given time....this is logical, and helpful for you....example: it may be in sec.
(3) as a new buy at a certain price area, and, in sec. (4) if it has risen or
fallen decently from the bought level, as I follow-up its movements for your
benefit, and, still also in sec. (6) as a buy when/if it pulls back to its
original suggested buy level....This is a GOOD thing for you, NOT a bad/confusing
thing....A stock might have risen, from, say, $ 6 (sec. 3) , to $ 7 1/4 (sec. 4
follow-up), then is pulling back again (sec. 4, next paragraph), and, when/if it
pulls back towards $ 6 again,. without breaking its original pattern, is remains
a buy (sec. 6)....GOT THAT ? Finding such ideas among the "repeats" in sec. 3,
ilisutrates this helpful item....It is very simple, as I have said umpteen times:
all suggested stocks remain actionable when/if they remain/return to original
prices, in the future, provided their original chart pattern is still intact....
period.
Plus, as you have seen among "repeats" in sec. 3, often, a stock WILL
sometimes return to its original actionable price levels, and some will end up
"revalidating" after initial slight breaks of patterns, which is also of little
consequence, since your transaction costs are so low, and you have eliminated all
emotions from the process, you can always get back in, at those times, yes ?
(plus, as I taught you, we give a bit more 'leeway' at the special year-end
period, employing a bit less strict/tight stops, right ?)
Remember, the time length of the full trip from stage 1 through 7, can be one year, or ten years, or 100 years, depending on one's desired perspective....A stock can be in one stage S.T., and another stage L.T. Now, one cannot have "everything", that is, we try not to turn a S.T. position into a L.T. position, and we never even try for "potential 10-baggers over several years".... One must decide beforehand, whether one expects a S.T. trade or a L.T. investment....But at least knowing the normal, usual characteristics of each sequential stage, puts us way ahead of "the 95 %". I use 1-year and 2-year charts, period, because we seek 1-2-3-month patterns, holds, and moves, and NOT overnite, nor daily nor intraweek moves.
Remember, WE tend to ONLY trade long, from stage 1, into stage 2, with stops,
and often miss potential stage 3 rises....and we try to Only get Puts at what we
think might be a stage 4 top, with stops, and often miss stage 6 and 7 drops, but
more on that later....The highest-reliability, reward/risk plays, are in stage 1
and 4, even with occasional stops triggered.
IMPORTANT: people keep
trying to "formula-ize/computerize" my "PSYCLE sm" process, which, as I keep
saying, is a fruitless waste of your valuable time...."just get close(r)", and do
everything else correctly....The KEY is just plain learning the simple VISUAL
chart patterns for each of the 7 sequential stages in my "logo chart" on my
webpage and on the front of every Booklet, then adding the "sentiment" nuances of
each stage.
As Repeated in Every NL:
As I keep reiterating, It is
also still better most times, to, 1) buy "some" stage 1 "PSYCLE sm" stocks, in
depressed or EVB chart patterns, when their "news seems so bad" but their
patterns show EVB's (and have occasional, small, cut losses), than to never do
that at all....Because, historically, and as you have seen herein, any small, cut
losses, will be more than overcome by larger % Gains, over time, off those EVB
lows, when one properly Diversifies....and, to, 2) TRY at least "some"
"Puts/options" the opposite way, near their Highs only, when/where suitable,
than to never do any Puts ever....always diversifying properly, with close
stops....no emotion.
Remember, "PSYCLE sm" stocks tend to move much more INDEPENDENTLY of any/all
"external" stuff, than "the 95 %" incorrectly believe....one does Not "need"
"events" to happen, in order to exploit normal, probable stock price moves....
this is a Good thing....One Key is to have the strength to Buy, when there is a
"scary story", provided the stock pattern is intact....Connectedly, realize, by
nature, there is SUPPOSED to be no "sexiness" in stocks/groups, near their lows,
in bases, nor EVB's....they only become "sexy", After they rise a bunch, right ?
and, by then, it is/will be too late....One must buy into NON-sexiness, into
NON-positiveness, into "fear", when the patterns are intact, right ? Also,
buying PUTS options "the Psycle Way", can be viewed as just plain intelligent/
logical, and proper, as just "insurance" or "protection", as well as for direct
profit at times, yes ? The March '98 tops, and July '98 tops, and drops, have
proven that yet again.
I also assume you have read the "Significant Disclaimers" paragraph, under my
main webpage logo....I cannot infer that my future performance will always match
my excellent, real, actual past track records, as each person will, obviously,
have differing experiences with my output, and/or do/not do various things,
properly/improperly, etc. Thanks for understanding. It is also assumed that you
actually "VIEW" 1-and-2-year past Charts of stocks, with their 200 DMA's, BEFORE
you "do" anything for real, and that you are aware of their recent highs/lows,
for stops price levels, and past/future resistance/support. I am also assuming
you have learned to eliminate the potentially hindering emotional "stuff" from
the decision-making/stock-choosing side of your brain....
