I’ve closed out Radnet (RDNT) at $4.36 today off of a bounce of the 50-day moving average for a 4.3% gain, and have also added MoneyGram Int’l (MGI) at 3.81, S1 Corp (SONE) at $7.45, and Zales (ZLC) at $6.54. So far so good, though I just got into the MGI trade. All of the
Two new trades to speak of, beyond the trade in Bed Bath & Beyond this morning, with Diamond Offshore Drilling (DO) at $73.36 and Armour Residential at $7.70. I also picked up a couple of trades in SSO – the Ultra 2x Long of the S&P as I bought on extreme negative tick readings earlier

I went long Silver (SLV) at $34.06, and though it’s not Linkdeln (LNKD), it does have a lot of volaility, and if you followed my chart that I posted earlier this week, you’ll remember that I highlighted the potential for us to see a nice pop out of this commodity. Well, now it is
I didn’t get a chance to post this trade as a stand alone article (though I did on the trading ticket for everyone) earlier today, so I wanted to take some time this evening to do exactly that. I believe that this trade is good to take all the way up to $520. After that,
Finally made two late afternoon trades, the first of which is in Expedia (EXPE) at $25.59, and the other in Frontier Communications (FTR) at $8.80. I also managed to get out of the S&P UltraLong 2x (SSO) at $53.60, after having averaged down five times outside of my original buy-in. At one point, at
So far, it appears that commodities are trying to bounce today, and taking with them, the market in sympathy.
