Underway, the sub loss is attributable to how subs were counted...no biggie. fcf was dang close....01 versus .07 for the liberty charge beat predictions. increase in forecast

No one is trying to claim there take is perfect, the best or correct. When people argue over their trades, decisions, or direction, its a learning process. When I put my opinion up in a forum, I am looking for someone to debate me, to make me rethink what I know, to find another angle, see something I didnt(I in this case means any trader really). This ego thing your talking about, maybe your confusing ego with something else. Not to mention its impossible to detect tone, and attitude from a keyboard.Quote:

Everyone always thinks their right. Takes confidence to invest, putting yourself and your opinion out there in a forum is not easy. In fact its the reason Ive seen MANY good intelligent posters in other stocks will just STOP POSTING. So they dont have to deal with people like you. Why should they? They best investors can go in a moderator forum and just hash it out everyday, but they dont choose to do that, they choose to debate it openly, so all can have an opinion. Everybody has a take, give your reasons, explain them and add to it. To come in and say the things you did inhibits people from talking freely, sharing information, and trying to make some ****ing money. So in response to your post,
Yes...
If the shoe fits...
I couldnt agree more.
Theres a guy in another board who I hate, cant stand him. hes egotistical, and cocky, and is rude. But he makes me money, so i dont give a rats ass. Not saying im any of these things, im just giving you the worst example i can think of. Why do you take investing personally?
RELMOR..Calm down..I was not bashing you...your taking it personal...WHY?
maybe it was the large text in bright red? lol kinda sends the message you are angry.
not angry...no reason to be. Thanks for bringing attention that red means anger.Quote:

HONEST. i wanted to highlight an opinion that brandon gave to john( defending his article, brandon stated something along the lines of this stock is not going below .40 fact) , then minutes later he deleted the comment and on the forum recommended a sell @.38 and buy in @.31 because"he wants all his followers to profit like him". then all of sudden , everyone started posting bearish feelings on siri. you can consider my post here a bash, and it is. definitely not bashing you tho. and relmor, i appreciate your opinion very much, as you incite very good discussion on company metrics, TA, and other subjects regarding this stock. but i do have 1 question, and please answer honestly. i'm not trying to pick a fight with you at all , i just want an honest OPINION from you. since brandon came out with the "siriusxm is not manipulated anymore since feb" NO ONE ON WAVES is basically allowed to mention the word manipulation, do you agree there is just a supply/demand price movement or there is still manipulation? im just asking for your opinion, im under the impression it is still manipulated(but i could be wrong).
3 for 3 ... the third restaurant now with sxm playing, this one was playing coffee house, upscale place.
Anyone see any hope of this stock going back to the .50s anytime soon?
Yes and no to your Question Tunes.Quote:

yes we will see .50 soon,maybe this friday or monday,but definitely by annual meeting..we saw .63 on way up and .05 on way down ,but briefly for each,Quote:

so they will have to keep taking it up slowly to get inst. their shares to hold long term..the rest is retail swing and day traders swaping 10k-30k blocks every day,and their are thousands of those traders out their..

I have received a few messages asking what I thought the stock price would do. One thing you will notice is that I never recommend buys, sells, waits, or holds. As a writer and owner of this site, I want to avoid any possible situation where I, or this site, may get viewed as pumping, dumping, or trying to influence investor actions. I have always been clear on this... I am not a financial advisor. Additionally, my contract with Seeking Alpha is very specific. As a gold level contributor, not only do I need to disclose my position in an equity, but I also have to disclose whether or not I have, or intend, to trade within three days of publishing an article on an equity. Rather than trade SIRI actively, I made the decision to simply hold what I have in this company. I respect my contract with Seeking Alpha, and this is why I am not a huge participant in talking about the swings in the forums, and am not actively trading the stock.
That being said, all of you are welcomed to discuss strategies, trades, etc. to your hearts content. Active traders love this type of discussion, and this site encourages all of you to share, debate, and contribute.
Thank You all for your participation.
hey tyler, never asked asked you about stock prices, but i did ask you whether you can clear up the capex issue which you never replied too. is the satellite launch for this year paid for or not? there was some debate by a few guys and i dont think we got a definative answer. it is an important question IMO because it does affect FCF for this year. ty..gl
No problem Siriushope, i think I know who you are talking about. No worries, been a long day, and I just wanted to clarify again the trader vs. investor thinking. I KNOW its painful and boring, and seemingly irrelevant to haggle over pennies, but thats how i trade, to the penny. Ive decided this is the best way to recoup my money in sirius, not by holding. I respect investors and hold nothing against this strategy(Im not Big Ben, basically, although he is funny... hehe).Quote:

I knew this going in, and being under $1 was going to make it a bear to get back.
I do think the manipulation aspect affects less experienced traders more, as the high volitilty might throw some off. Nature of this stock. I have accepted that fact.
I pick my spots now, otherwise it sounds like whining. What he says is true, yes, in a perfect world. And yes, these conditions that Sirius facing in trading is very difficult, and weighed against the retail investor
1. 2 decimal points
2. hidden bid/asks we cant see
3. Late on SI reports, and insitution buying...
4. Shorting at times of their liking....
etc...
But the mm's , even ISEG has limits to what they can do. They wont make it an easy road to $1, but I still feel we will get their. I do not think Brandon is being a dictator over their, as I post there A LOT, i have not sensed this, but he has definately backed off that aspect. Does he change his mind a lot? Yes... We all do.. But when you post a lot, and write articles a lot, it may appear whishy washy, but this stock is constantly making you rethink what you know. You would have to ask Brandon personally, i can only tell you what i see. And i think hes been fair on this topic. The only topic he sours on is Mr. H stuff, AND I DONT BLAME HIM ONE BIT. If you really believe what Mr. H believes, I wouldnt hold this stock for one second. Sounds too dangerous.
Boy I hope your right, Johnny!
I'm along with Hopeful for the .50 range again. For two days I kicked myself in the arse for screwing around and second guessing my game plan when it hovered and dance around between .54 -.55 that one morning for s short time before the bottom dropped out. I would have been happy with the small profit then.
You see, I'm a noob at all this. I can admit it. A lot of the stuff mentioned here is still over my head and all but I really appreciate all the posts in here and the more I am learning the more fascinated I'm becoming with all of this. I'm 48 so I guess it's never too late to learn, or at least try to.
I've learned so far that when I make a plan I should stick to it. Hesitation cost me last week, literally. I also found myself wanted to get into stocks really short (um, like day traders to take a quick small profit) but find myself now acting more like a swing trader. SIRI here has caused me not to think "Oh the hell with it, I'll get out now and take up the loss later" attitude but more of a "I see potential here at SOME point - why take such a loss if I'm not stressed to?" Wait it out. I guess I'm a "switch hitter". I'll go short, but if I have to hold long, I'll do it.
Maybe that's stupid, but just thought I would share my trading strat so far. Guess I'll go back to reading more of the Stock Market for Dummies!
Keep up the good work here! Good group of people in this forum.
