Watchlist for July 10, 2006

Looks like I’ll have to put my evil plan to short everything on hold for a while. I actually like that the market’s gapping up because I hate trying to chase falling stocks at the open. So if we roll over today I’ll be ready…

Potential swing trades:

See one of the recent ‘Chart Reading‘ posts for some potential swing candidates.

    I shorted HANS today and then covered for a 8.5% profit. The market sure was weak. I thought we were expecting a stronger than usual earnings season?

    Nice, I only got a 5.76% gain from HANS today. :-) Gotta love a 4-for-1 split to bring out the sellers!

    I wonder whether “HANS money” migrated over to LBIX…
