[joe moon] 06/10/2005 17:33

what a crazy chart!!

[ards] 04/10/2005 17:24

took another punt on short side at 71 which is fib retracement level. stop at 73. looks like bounce due to be included in some exotic index. means little me thinks.

[ards] 03/10/2005 18:21

looks like support at 65 or so with rsi only at 60. may bounce to 70 which would be good short entry.

ards

Any thoughts on GOOG at all ?

[mike crowsoft] 28/9/2005 15:44

Well played ards.

Volume coming in now, which will slow further declines imo, and may even see a $5 snapback.

[ards] 28/9/2005 15:41

well looking good

[ards] 28/9/2005 08:12

tp

you may be right and 70 may be support but hard to say given short history and radical change in sentiment.I think the only measure to go on is the one given by analysts ie 50 bucks absolute topside with real value of 27. My experience, for what it is worth, eg isys, once the downside target is set by respected analyst the share price goes there. all about risk I suppose. I think it may rally at 70 or so back up to on of fib retracement levels between 73 and 76 but that would be a good short entry imho.

long tasr and perhaps should have closed yesterday when it did not go my way but with 30% short positions and all bad news (famous last words) out of way it looks ripe for a short squeeze on any good news.

[tpaulbeaumont] 28/9/2005 05:06

$72 could well be support ards, hope it collapses for you :)

[ards] 27/9/2005 20:16

next stop 50 bucks with a few rallies on the way.

[alfred godson] 27/9/2005 14:54

Thanks ards , I'll put it on my watchlist .

[ards] 27/9/2005 14:52

aleady have one started on tasr. just noone interested. have just taken plunge with tasr for 400 cfds. looks like what I call a gap and snap play ie opens down then goes north. we will see. have to get back to work.

[alfred godson] 27/9/2005 14:49

Do you want to start a new thread ?

[ards] 27/9/2005 14:48

watching tsar today. have watched it drop from 13 to 6 or so. not sure what sec investigation means but seems to be large naked shorting going on which should lead to short squeeze at sometime. company has no debt and recent studies look positive as do sales trend. may be time for small bite.

i also dont think there are many more shares out there to short!!!

[ards] 27/9/2005 14:43

of course could be completely wrong and that is why my exposure is never enough to bankrupt me.

[ards] 27/9/2005 14:38

Hi alfred.

kept my short open from yesterday as think bidu looks very weak on hourly. it is the opposite picture from goog. lets face it the ipo was for 27 dollars and we have three conseq downgrades. I have also noticed price action of someone selling large amounts to drop price by a dollar or so then let it recover to sell some more. looks either like a holder or hedge fund shorting perhaps to hedge goog exposure.
