Long time, no blog. I am back......and investing again. This past 3 months, I have been slowly buying up ANDI shares breaking my rules of not "loving" a stock. TODAY: ANDI Closed @ .003.
*Here's a company with a CEO with integrity, that loves to do what he says.
*It's an APP company that is catering to the world. 80 new apps (40 free, 40 paid) are being reviewed by APPLE for the iPhone.....which will grow it's inventory of apps with the goal of over 500.
*Android Phones are in the works, and they have a few out already.
*Presently trading near the lows of a channel which goes from .0022 up to .02. Interesting take:
My buying: Bought from .0016 thru .0027; may break up to .0040 where I will be watching.

Wow, been in a drought for a couple months, draining my account to live, invest in my business and help my young adults kiddos.
However, followed a few stocks, most were "duds" -- but found ZVTK, and saw it showing higher lows, & lower highs....pushing to a decision point. On Demand Balance = Great; RSI = UP; MACD = started to cross UP; Stochastics = Moved into positive; News coming = looked good; Product = Green and coming...
....so I sold my "duds" and bought ZVTK @ .0026 anticipating an upswing. Well today, 12-28-09 it closed at .014 UP over 420%. Sold some, so most of my investment is back....riding close to free shares. :)
Today: Been watching SKGO, saw it bounce up past .0016, bought at .0018 == Closed today @ .0039 UP over 100%.
Accumulating IDOI @ .0042 -- if it busts up over .0044, will buy more on 12-29-09.

4 Rules to Trading
Back again...it's been a long couple months. Here's a good reminder of trading...
My 4 Top Trading Rules:
1. Don't risk too much on one event or company.
2. Stay focused, especially when the markets are moving.
3. Don't fall in love with any stock.
4. Prices move before fundamentals.
From Hototc.com
There ya have it.
As for me, I am starting once again.......with $ 3000.00 and going to see what I can do with it. More info coming.

Long Time, No Write
Well, it's been quite a while.......I haven't been able to concentrate on my trading for the past 3-4 weeks due to my business; and a trip I was supposed to take. So, I let some "trades" NOT happen....and though I am still in the @ $ 20,000 range of profit, I have dropped from the high of $ 36,000.
(I also have learned, with much frustration, that SCOTTRADE does not allow you to "buy" certain stocks...which they deem to be "too risky." So, I have missed a number of possibilities. Therefore, I am looking into opening an account with ZECCO.com; another broker who allows more trading. I might own both trade accounts....we'll see. More to come.)
Anyway, I am well positioned I believe, so on Monday, 10-19-09 I will decide whether to sell some or hang on for the week...depending on the direction of these stocks:
And of course, the ever crazy,
SPNG --- which had "trading" suspended through Oct. 16th. I'm told it will resume trading Monday, October 19th....and we will see which way it will go.
Lots of interesting thoughts on the message boards, leaning heavily both ways.....some wildly predicting a rise to $15.00/share (yeah right ;) -- and others saying the SPNG is going all the way down. IF IT TRADES MONDAY, it should be an interesting day. Everything seems to hinge on the financials.....are they in line with the info on www.spongetechinc.com ???? or were they leading us on ????? Hmmmm, only time will tell.
So...back to trading, I hope....and communicating with myself on my choices.

ASFX ClayTrader (charter) tells me ASFX is ready to move up. We'll see if ClayTrader has good insights on this - check out and see if you agree with him:
IFSL Not sure this has reached it's bottom, but looks like setting up....may move down to .05. The Quarterlies should be coming out soon, and from what I read, they should be VERY good. Not sure when they come out; and of course, I could be wrong.
SYNJ Monday, Oct. 19th, 2% dividend being awarded holder's of stock. This is an interesting stock similar to AWSL (which has taken off well). SYNJ could just be another.....over time. How long?....not sure.
LFBG Bought just before the 2 for 4 stock divided.....got 'em, which is good; but the stock has tanked. Holding this one through Christmas, because it is in Walmart....see link:
Walmart Link, Left Behind: Eternal ForcesAnd of course, the ever crazy,
SPNG --- which had "trading" suspended through Oct. 16th. I'm told it will resume trading Monday, October 19th....and we will see which way it will go.

AGEL
Interesting perspective by Technical Analysis of AGEL......though with sub-pennies, not always accurate; so with that said, remember, I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS STOCK, but it is one to watch....
Recent CandleStick Analysis
Very Bullish



AGEL

| Date | Candle |
| Sept-18-2009 | Homing Pigeon |
| Sept-17-2009 | Homing Pigeon |
| Sept-16-2009 | Homing Pigeon |
| Sept-16-2009 | Homing Pigeon |
| Sept-15-2009 | Homing Pigeon |
What is the "Homing Pigeon" in Chart Reading/Technical Analysis?
Here is the info from Wikipedia.....Bullish Homing Pigeon
What Does Bullish Homing Pigeon Mean?
A trend indicated by a large candlestick followed by a much smaller candlestick whose body is located within the vertical range of the larger candle's body. In both candlesticks, the stock price has to have closed down from the opening price. This pattern may indicate that there is a weakening of the current downward trend.

Investopedia explains Bullish Homing Pigeon
If a bullish homing pigeon trend is seen in a chart it may be a good for traders to exit short positions and begin to enter into long positions. The worse the downward movement in the stock, the more likely a closing of a short position should be taken by a trader.

MY CONCLUSION:
So.....................this is one to watch, AGEL, to see if it is being accumulated.....and to see IF it will turn upward.
I'm outta here.....lookin' forward to Monday. :)
