CONGRATS! sd.

[bankedout]

Nice win sd.

I'll try TIK long next week.

[blygh]

Good pick sd - I would not have won even if my late entry VVUS had not been scratched for failing to meet post time (although it was 22.5% on Wednesday) . I expect a down market until mid June (like 2005)- I'll short HPQ.

[Spiderman]

Congrats SD,

I'll ride PPO long this week.

[realdeal]

[ira85]

It's 5:28PM. I don't recall the cutoff time. If I'm not too late, I'll ride DIG long, looking for a bounce. -ira

[sd]

Thanks guys,
It's nice to have your trade supported by the market direction- And talk about close with Bankedout! .07 difference?
It looks like most expect a bounce - I'm in Blygh's camp -
I'm going to short LPL- It was a winning trade for me this past week, but as AAPL is seeing selling, I expect LPL will sell off harder.
Good Luck! SD
