This was when my account was still really small....I said if I broke 100K I'd pierce my nipples. haha.

Well, here i am at work, and wanting to rip my friggin shirt off. This weekend I logged 5 hours flying time, and I gotta tell you, the shoulder harness sure stung while I was doing spins. haha.

Note to self....even if it seems outlandish at the time.....it still might come back to bite you.

After the first one was done, i thought I was over the hill and on the easy stretch. Nope, second one felt like I was still going uphill. haha.


:rofl: :rofl:

Success hurts. :angel:

[icecreamvan]

Be glad it's just your nipples. :rofl: Good job!

[broken_legs]

Do you have a target in your head at where you're going to dump?


Let me know so I dont get caught LOL

[Mckenzie]

CMX bids thinned out a bit at the end of the day...wondering if there might be another dip tomorrow.

All depends, I might flip a chunk back and forth over the next couple days....but I am definately selling AT LEAST half before news comes out. All depends on how it runs over the next week. I will post my intentions on here though.

If it pops into the .30s I am selling all of my shares and waiting to rebuy until after news. And even then, it will only be for a very quick trade. Once this news comes out (and if all 10 remaining holes are reported on), there won't be much else coming down the pipe for CMX. Might play out just like AOS did with good news and resulting in a selloff because people know there isn't much else in the way of more news coming for a while.

When is news coming out?

I think you should try reading and doing your own research.

[broken_legs]

BRRRR

CMX is having a slow day today so far

I cant believe we hit 0.19 this morning

[Schwa]

I know this has changed into a pennies forum, but anyone interseted in the Keynote speech at the Macworld conference today? Could send AAPL either way. It's happening in half an hour.

Looks like a crappy day across the board today.

[Canmorite]

:eek: -40%

Although nearly 2 million on bid between .15 and .17.

That sucks for GRW holders.

[bigbadboss101]

Got wacked on CMX, and now GRW. I am gonna sell all my
stocks and buy a 90,000 diamond ring instead. :rolleyes:

[bigbadboss101]

So GRW holders, what r u doing? Hold and wait for next news? Or sell and buy lower?

I'm just going to wait it out, and hope the next news is better.

[RX_EVOLV]

i'm going to be looking for an exit point today

[broken_legs]

How does 0.13 sound?

[bigbadboss101]

I got out at 0.145. Had 30,000 shares so basically 9600 became 4350 or so. Oh well.

Now do we fear the same with CMX?

[broken_legs]

I just got rig of my 60,000 CMX

I think I'll rebuy it a bit lower

[Z_Fan]

Ouch. :(

[Z_Fan]

No, I have no GRW.

I was just giving acknowledgement to those that were.

If I weren't in the midst of changing trading platforms, I'd probably have been in to GRW for $15k at $.29 or $.30. Thank god I'm not as I just took a similar ass reaming from CMX.

Surprisingly enough, CMX saved my ass on this one. I sold all my GRW last week in the mid 30's to buy CMX. I lost a little today on CMX from it, but nothing near what it'd be at if I were still in GRW.

On the other hand, Rodney Dangerfield is sitting on my other shoulder telling me about all the sweet shit I could be doing with a lot of cash.

Choices, choices.

I just called them

I talked to some Chuck guy and they are going to change a few things up for this next release like make sure everything is in CU equivalent so people understand the moly and other precious metal credits

So im buying back in... At least im getting closer to my 30 trades for the quarter haha

[Mckenzie]

Bids are defenitely building at CMX and the asks are going up.

[RX_EVOLV]

[broken_legs]

im trying to copy Rat Fink here

After I talked to those crooks on the phone I got all excited and went all in again

Sold mine to, quite the plunge today.

[Mckenzie]

I could not resist picking up another 7500 k of EFR today.

They are a serious company that will be mining uranium this year....with $20 million in the bank, the first new mill in the US online and an experienced management team, not a bad buy at $1.15 IMO whether you are looking a year out or 4 years out.

No pump and dump like GRW/CMX lol. (Eventhough those make money too!)

[Rat Fink]

[CaptainReboot]

I still have some shares of CMX left. Good luck to all those that are still holding.

[red99600]

[Altezza]

Who actually has a stock that's green today? In my sea of red, I have two green, LOL.

What does your TA say on the TSX?

Are you concerned we went below your red trend line there?

Or are you saying that the trend will continue?


TA is too complicated for me

I hope tomorrow is a better day

Hi XXXXX,

The NR should be completed this afternoon, however, we will not be putting it out today. We will assess the market tomorrow and go from there. We will be putting out 8 out of the 10 holes. The results from holes 80 and 81 should be received in the next couple weeks.

woah 8/10 Holes. Hmmm well if you are speculating good news then it may be time to add to your position.

Now where do I find the money to do that.. argh

I think I have lost about $45,000.00 in the stock market in the last year. I'm not very happy about that. :eek:

[ryanallan]

my picks are

intel (INTC) < down over 30% since jan1

imperial oil (IMO) < bright future

research in motion (RIMM or RIM) < down over 20% since jan1

[ICEBERG]

I haven't been playing the stock market since this summer. Thank got i sold everything when i did. I checked some of the stocks i had and :eek:

AOS.V 0.75 :eek: this stock was over $2.10 this summer

GCR 0.71 :eek: what the Fu$% this was a $4 stock... I sold this at over $2.00 in the summer.:eek:

SRU TO 0.82 :eek: sold this at $1.61 just over the summer.

SA.V 1.05 anothe stock on the slide.

These are just some to list, i can go on and on. If i have kept all the stocks i had over the summer i would have been over $30,000 to 40K in the hole:eek:

Time to go shopping again though, i know it won't sit like this for long.

Good luck,

[Canmorite]

Well every other time we touched that line, we bounced. Not this time. We may see a reversal back up towards that line, though. I've moved into bearish mode.

I didn't exactly back up the truck because I feel the worst is still yet to come but I added some $$$ to all my positions today and will continue to do so if things keep up like this. Invest in solid companies and hope for the best :D

[Xtrema]

Whoever recommends Nortel just want to sell. :D

RIM is solid.

Bleeding isn't done but if you're going to long term, it's not a bad time to jump back in.

[digi355]

I grabbed 3000 shares of CLL today. It was kind of impulsive, I got in for 2.92 and it kept falling after the fact. I am hoping for a quick dead cat bounce. It's not long term and hopefully just a quick $3,000.00 in my pocket. If it continues to meltdown tomorrow I have a couple more grand I'll be shopping with.

[Canmorite]

Should be an interesting day tomorrow...
