I know that they are still functional, but haven't looked at it in a while. Maybe I should.Quote:

Now BCLE is involved with Hurricane clean-up. That is why I was hoping for a little hurricane action, lol :rolleyes: , just to help get the ball rolling.
I hope you are having a great Saturday Tony!
Glad to hear somebody else sees/hears all the things I do, sandy!Quote:

I briefly considered selling all last week at $.15, but am glad I didn't. Have also considered adding another 20k shares or so this week, just to have more when big things (hopefully) happen.
At $.24 (52-week high) BEHL will be buying my BMW, that much I can tell you. ;) Maybe even get a vanity plate that says "GO BEHL" or some such hillarity.
As for the weekend...same to you and everybody else. I will be:
1. Finish staining and clear-coating our concrete patio.
2. Hitting the BMW with compound and glaze. Mystic blue is a beautiful color.
3. Mowing grass. It rained all week and it's a jungle out there, now.
Bill, remember ambac from my lurker days ...
It dawned on me that I hadn't followed up on one of the first 'pennies' I looked at - RNNM - It fell off my watch list somehow but it appears to have just stalled right around .25
The last I recalled was a fleet test that they were doing, somehow tied into FedEx trucks ... I think it's the manufactuer of them ... at any rate sounds like they did as well as expected -

Tripps told me that it had crappy financials and it had everything going against it. It took me months to break even. Then If I can remember right, I bought it again about the time LVLT was coming back to life.
I was reading about Ronn Motors a while back. That is pretty interesting technology.
That is a pretty cool looking car....are batteries included? ;)
there ya go bill, thats the spirit....FOOTBALL...
heres where i sit on sundays (135" screen, yeah thats 11.5ft)
ive been dlinking, you know how you can tell, listen how i say dlinking, "dlinking"
im solly officer, i couldn't say the alphabet backwards if i were sober.
I am all excited about football season starting. I wish that I had the NFL package like you, but I have Dish Network. Good Lord, you could get radiation burns off of a set that big. ;) You could use it for a tanning bed also. :)Quote:

I think its more important for the big boards though - since the majority of stocks move in the same direction, going all in can make you really wrong. Pennies are more random, so its ok to go in with more... but I'm trying to hold back.
I did find this video funny though, sounds like I'm a perfect candidate for what he is saying not to do:

FOREX here I come!!!
p.s. I do like corn though. Good excuse for butter and salt.
I just love that FOREX commercial on T.V.. "Just get a practice account and then when you are ready, you can just start doing the real thing...with currencies all over the world....24 hours a day...5 days a week."
They make it sound so simple.
I would never trade futures or commodities. I don't even short or have a margin account.
I have enough trouble on the uptrend side of a stock.
Dave, are you into your San Diego Chargers?
What other teams do other people on here like?
That makes my head spin. I love it!
I've never related to pro sports all that much - mostly college and amateur. I usually just watch the schools I went to.Quote:

OWVI- came up on the radar. http://www.1worldventures.net/Investors.php
Not sure if anyone else has posted it here or not, thought I would just in case.
Like QASP, little bits of info and news are coming out, I am going to watch this one. I am going to go hunting for IPO's, not the greatest time to release an IPO but if something good comes up I will throw it down here.
Later!!! :)
Ask the broker to make sure I'm correct, but one of the benefits of a margin account is that I don't have to wait for my stocks to clear settlements before making the next trade - I always stay below the margin level, only trade how much cash I have on hand, but say you had 3 stocks, wanted to switch out of one to another, and was in a hurry to get into the new one. You can go ahead and buy the new one, and I don't think that free-ride message pops up, because you technically have the margin to buy it. I haven't been charged a margin fee yet. Though, the amount of credit you get may not apply to pennies. They show your actual cash balance on its own, vs. what they call buying power - which is cash and margin combined, so you can't really screw up.Quote:

So if the price didn't change, its mostly no harm no foul, out of a couple of bucks on commission, if it did go up as expected, you'd lose some on your put, but you didn't have to deal with trading the portion of your stock you didn't want to deal with, if it tanks - like OCNF did, then you could still hold it at these low prices, not deal with whipsaw, but would have covered part of the sting. I think this isn't such a bad plan for stocks that you may be really long in that tend to gap on earnings, like priceline and amazon. But to buy the put, you'd need a margin account too - why, I have no idea... it's only selling puts to open where you'd need a whole lotta collateral.
