John, Just trying to see what you saw on the chart when you got out of your trade. I wasn't able to see ILMN in detail to see your entry on 3/14.
Thanks,
Vic

JP, i have a limit order to sell at 17$ the macd crossed the signal line on 3/13. i try to buy when the macd is rising. i bought 3,350 @ 14$, if i can get 2 bucks profit in a week i'll be happy. look at the historical prices on this one, it's pretty common to have a 2$ range per day.
another one i'm watching is NM. If it hits 8$ i'm in
but with this crazy market you never know.

Short S&P @ 1327
Hopefully this is the intraday top!

Man, these greedy bulls just don't know when to give up! LOL
At any rate, come helter skelter, I have my MOC order. We'll see where we'll end the day.

mimi,
Ironically, as soon as the stock market closed, the futures (which I trade) began to sell off pretty hard. My rationale was that people would unwind their positions going into the extended holiday. So much for that thought process. Anyway, I have my order set to bail me out at 4:15 EST.
