Comments: tat could you look this over, go back to june 13th through july 7th, do you think this looks pretty decent?

HSKA is in the biotech sector. Since the first mention of this stock, it has looked good and continues to do so. It never got back far enough to buy in based on the analysis we did a couple months back and my thinking is that it may take another month or two before it builds up enough steam to really break free. If so, we should see another chance to buy in around the $2.00 to $2.10 area. Since the June 13th to current time frame it has built out a nice pattern but there is so much volume sitting at those highs at $2.79 that I don't know if this move higher can get through that area just yet. If you like this longer term, which it seems you do, taking a little here is OK but look for one more retrace to buy more substantially would still be my opinion.

RAME - Go Long?

Comments: tat heres one where the 50ma is cutting through the 200ma, took off in the last 2 to 3 minutes of trading , amazing setup, would you check this one out thanks

RAME is an independent oil and gas company although it shows up in my books as being in the diversified investments sector. Not sure why but that changes the sector rating in the cube as the oil and gas sector has been bullish throughout the time frames. . If we look at the chart, we see a good setup. Eventual target looks to be the $6.5 area with resistance overhead at $5.7 that it is magnetized to now. There was a lot of rebalancing on the indexes on Friday and that may speak to the volume spurt we saw. The ideal entry is back towards the break of the trend line. Consider that a stop out area as well as those tops around $4.9 should provide support on any retrace now. There are nice signs of strength here. I would look to see if it can actually break over the $5.8 area immediately. If so, then an entry on the next retrace from above that point back to the $5.4 area would be a good place to start adding. If it can't break above, then the ideal entry point may be the setup instead. A little patience here and we will see what the stock tells us as to where to enter.

Comments: tat would you look this one over thanks, it has made a huge move so right now im just waiting to see how far this will correct


MPZ trades in the computer peripherals sector. Looking at the cube, we see a change slow shift in this sector and this stock mirrors that change over the past six months. The big high volume spike shown on the chart I suspect was associated with earnings (I didn't look it up) and that becomes the benchmark going forward as you can see the long term trend line now comes in around the same area as that high. . So far, on a long term basis, this is nothing more than range trading. What's needed is a break above the $2 level on high volume and for prices to stick. At that point, a retrace back to the $1.25 level would provide a great entry point for a long term trade. With earnings season coming up you could see that occur.

FEEC - Go Long?

Comments: has made a very nice move since june 5th when the 50ma crossed the 200ma, right now im just waiting for this to correct maybe once it touches 1.52 on a weekly chart


FEEC trades in the energy sector and shows promise as it's completing a nice rounded bottom here. . What's most interesting is that you have two levels of support and some over head resistance right above so you would expect it to come into those support levels giving you a buying opportunity. The real resistance lies arond $2 so if you can pick it up for $1.2 or so and shoot for the $2, that's a nice trade. It shouldn't trade below $1.05 or so now.

ALLI - Go Long?

Comments: looking for an entry, should i wait and see if this will close and trade above 5.34, or 5.28?

ALLI is in the health services sector. If we look at the chart, it's showing a huge range that spans from about $4 to almost $8 where this stock has traded over the year after getting whacked hard late summer last year. The more that I look at this, I can see how, on an intermediate term basis it could make sense and I've annotated the chart to show that. What I don't like is there's no real sign of strength. It's one thing for the buyers to be exhausted, but another for some buyers to step in. You need them to get back to the target and so far they are missing from the chart. As a result, this could take a long time to play out.

SLG - Go Short?

Duration: Intermediate
Direction: Go Short
Comments: The chairman of real estate investment trust SL Green Realty Corp. sold 271,112 shares of common stock, according to a Securities and Exchange Commission filing.


SLG is a REIT. As noted above, the thought is that if the chairman begins selling, then others might want to do the same. I've never followed this type of trading decision making close enough to know what works and what doesn't. Regardless, lets look at the chart for some clues which actually provides a lot to look at. The first thing that catches my eye is that there is now a nice natural resistance area back at those Nov highs from last year. That'a good place to try and get a short off at. Stop goes above that. So short around $141 to $143, stop out at $144.34 or so. Target is $117 eventually, $126 to start. Risk/reward looks good and there is an apparent loss of interest in this stock currently it appears.

MEK - Go Long?

Comments: tat if this can recover from this huge setback (5/10/07) today do you think this might eventually be a good one?


MEK is in the business services sector. The stock has been basically building out a large base from the $10 to $20 range. I've pulled a 5 year chart to see the bigger picture here.

Basically, it looks like it is base building to me in a wide range. It could come all the way back to that $9 level in a short order and it wouldn't be a totally broken stock if it traded as low as $6.50 or so either. It came from $2 to $20 in a year. It's worth looking at around the first level of support. If that breaks on volume, I'd step aside and look again at the second support level. If it's really range bound, then the first level support at $9 is a good buy.

HSOA - Go Long?

Comments: tat would you look this over again, today 5/09/07, it traded through the parabolic technical on my 3 month daily chart. the adx(14,14) is still negative although the +di crossed the =di and gernerated a buy signal and right around (20)

HSOA is in the business services sector. The stock is doing what it should do and that is building out a base down here. problem is, after getting whacked as bad as this one did, base building takes a very long time.

If you are itching to get into it, make sure you do so along the lower trend line which would be somewhere around the $4.7 area currently. There's plenty of time here and I wouldn't be in a rush to do much of anything. With the general markets cruising for a brusing, I'm not in a hurry to do much of anything anywhere on the long side; especially in a stock that is base building.

HSKA - Go Long?

Comments: tat could you look this one over, previously they reported finaincial results for the year 2006 on march 12th , next earnings report for the 1st qtr of 2007 is due next week do you think the way this has traded up since april 12th 2007,investors or speculators are anticipating more good news?

HSKA is in the biotech sector. If you are looking at the stock from a short term trading view, I would not step in front of earnings and roll the dice, especially with them trading up in front of earnings. Gaming earnings is never easy. Even if you are right about a good report, as you point out, it may already be in the stock.

If you look at this stock longer term though, it's promising. Long term resistance comes in around the $4 area and with the stock currently trading at $2.25, that a good profit margin. On the risk side, there's a $1 downside and if you go all the way back to the up trend line, it's a $1.25. I'd rather see if the earnings create some volatility that allows a better entry lower, maybe around the $1.65 area.
