SIRI Weekly Thread 8-10-09

Thanks, currently have 20k @ a buy of .54, hopefully it hits.

Hi BDivano,

Welcome to Sirius Buzz!

You and I are sitting in the same boat. I have a buy in for .54 also.
Mine's sitting there gathering dust. I'm sure yours is too. I sold last
week at .57, and that number flew by.

But to put a positive spin on the I've Been Screwed Story,
there's always next week.

Good to see you posting.

Julie

I am not bragging just very excited and thought id share! This is my first major investment and I am up 308.4%, take that mutual fund advisor!

Hi Hopeful,

Wow!! Congratulations, good job.

Julie

John,what you are saying is true,but i'm talking when Dow and S&P 500 hit historical highs of 14000 and 1500 respectively,i and many others knew then the run was over,but still hoped it would continue to rise on as we now know was an old fashioned bubble or ponzi scheme in housing and investment bonds and CDS's..the problem with this unemployment figure is it hit White collar 100k to 250k jobs the most,not blue collar as in past recessions.Hell it wiped out wall street as we know it,because no new 401k money (which has and will continue to prop up the markets)was coming in to sustain the upward slide..Unemployment is actually around 14% now if you take into account all that are not counted because they exhausted insurance and took 2 part time jobs to get by.

P.S.the bottm hit IMHO in march and if your noty in soon you will miss 25% gain by next year,Feb.
You already missed 27%gain,but it takes more to get back to March 07 numbers.

No not really I got just over half out by the time it hit 13,100 and was pissing and moaning with every 100 point increase. I never thought it should have been that high that fast even in a good economy. I am in trouble now because I cant get a interest rate on CDs, I hate to say it but I am kinda hoping for hyper inflation.

Thanks Julie, hopefully we have happy days ahead. I hope to reduce my avg sp down and into the mid to low .60s prior to it launching,

Great job hopefull,but just remember this is probably a once in a lifetime opportunity to buy into a stock like this at this price,.10 to .50 cent range.
So a little experienced advice to you,don't go searching for the next SXM,you probably won't find this perfect storm again,just DYODD on any stock you invest in,it's really not this easy..

EASY??? I guess if you could remain calm through all the insanity...

Congrats hopeful, you made it!

My wave count, posted in April or May I think, has wave 1 from .17 cents to .63 cents, where I have C. So to be out of wave 2, correction wave, would require a break of .63(and it usually is occupied by at least a 33% up move from the previous high), which would take us to the .80 to $1 area. So if it goes to .67 and reverses, I would have to reevaluate the wave count, and either immediately give credance to the break out, and buy in on it, or call it a false breakout, still in wave 2, and a big pullback would be due. Why penny stocks and elliot wave theory is hard here, too easy to give false counts. See, if it goes to .64, do you redo your count? Call it a blow off failed break out? Start charting to the next upleg? Why elliot wave is more usefull medium to long term, and as a tool in retrospect of information. For instance , if it goes to .64, and back down to .50, were not in a new wave. If it goes from .70 to .60, are we in a new wave? Even though the usually 33% up move wasnt there? Thats the major problem with it. Hard to short term trade on.

I agree with the larger wave structure you have... ie. the .17 to .63 as 1. I don't have a 1 there, as you can only put so many annotations on a single chart, so the 12345ABC is the fractal down from the larger count. The big 2 would be at C, I think - not looking at the chart at the moment.

I also don't use the elliot waves for price targets, I don't think that's their real intent, so I use other TA, I just use the EW to see if it agrees with my direction. But this chart got my sell out at 0.62, along with some others to define the support and resistance zones from both classic chart patterns and other types SR. I haven't gotten in trouble yet with this stock, it seems to be drawn to its SR targets, whether price/fib/whatever - have gotten in plenty of trouble with others though, lol.

I expect 3 of the larger wave you're counting to match SR at 0.69-0.72, or at least a pause there, minor subwave (don't have the exact nomenclature off the top of my head)... but that's must me, and as I realize, not all targets hit or are called right, nor does any pattern play off to the penny, and definatley not here to argue with you. I pointed the chart to bass, to show the pennant, not the wave count. Anyway, thanks for your input and reminding me to keep track of the larger wave structure - if these really even exist - it's all tea leaf reading to me sometimes, lol.

mmmm, This feels good.

Another good week to be a SIRI owner.

I hope you all have a great weekend!

O , sorry, my bad. Definately was no crticism or correction at all.
Just looking at your chart, and aswering Irish's question about it. Good information. Just speaking generally, not necessarily about SiriusXM. Most elliot wave users dont use it to day trade, but like you said, identify, and define ranges, and turning points. Also useful with cycle theories.
And I dont bother with disecting sub waves past abc of major 1, for example. Im giving .17 to .63 credit as a major 1 wave, due to the time its spent under .63. Every day longer, more validates that as a major breakout point, for the next higher ranges. If .63 cents held back then for only 1 week, then the major wave 1 up, dominant trend count would start higher.
It would be silly to say wave 2 lasted one day, then major wave 3 started the next day too, and went to .67. LOL Its fun TA thats for sure. Fib. counts are crucial in elliot wave theory.

Thanks Romo! Ahahaha I was a mess through it all, but I liked it! It was like putting 25 grand on 33 black at the roulette table and watching the little ball bouncing in and out of numbers!
