Thierry I would like PGIC long for next week.

After 15 straight sessions down, it formed a spinning top and is really oversold with an RSI of 4.8. The down volume is slowing, so maybe next week will be big.

Short HMB ---had a huge run on an upgrade, I think an over reaction it is due for some profit taking.

Thierry,
I think wgalfsky is short ICE and I am long. Not that it matters because we are both about even this week. But just wanted to let you know. Thanks.

I'm onto your game pal...you made a post last week and jinxed me.

03-22-2007, 06:29 PM
Hahaha, I don't recall posting a reply about you last week...maybe one about spanky having a nice recovery, but thats in for the weekly challenges.

I think I jinxed bahroor though in the monthly sim :twisted: hahaha...you know I love you bro, no harm intended.

03-22-2007, 07:12 PM
haha, I’ve been busy all week and haven’t traded real money at all actually. (trying to launch my own business :? ... sigh).

so I thought it would be wise to just short LEND and forget about it. :roll:

how on earth did you recover??? :confused:

I'm starting a design firm that specializes in designing (and eventually printing) small projects like business cards, restaurant menus, brochures, pamphlets, etc.
It's what I went to school for and has been my dream.

And thank you for the kind words Albert.
