TWER - lol.....go figure.....held this overnight, figured it would he relatively safe going into earnings today. For some reason they chose to do a 20m offering. Wasn't planning on holding through earnings but might now. Took 500 shares so not a huge position, but kinda annoyed still haha.

yea I was going to jump into TWER but held off, not sure how much its going to slide after earnings.

Yeah I would stay away. It is so damn thin that it is going to tank hard if earnings aren't good. Been trying to catch one of these low float runners but can't seem to get one haha. Been having allot more success just trading options recently for small cash. Other than that NUGT is the only thing I routinely trade for some quick bucks if the setup is good.

I am still day trading, I really only post low price/float swing plays since posting day trades doesn't really help anyone. But yes, very slow market right now and have to pick plays carefully. I still love playing NUGT, it is good for a few really good scalps every week if you can just wait for the chart to set up. Been trading some NTES calls and that's about it for right now. Taking advantage of this slow market and been cleaning the garage trying to make room for my bike.

I know a lot of you guys do the day trading thing to make money but do any of you hold dividend paying stocks ? And do you take the stock option or cash ?

SXCP, PER, FRO are some that I'm looking at.

I have a scottrade acct and I was wondering if they would pay the cash directly into my bank or how does it work exactly(I'm assuming that's how it goes)

If anything I'd only invest a few hundred to see how it goes.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed with MSTX. Have 5k shares @ .40. Hopefully P3 results are good. Wish I had deeper pockets to gamble with more. My manager has 60k shares

Anyone have experience in stocks where the company was bought out by a private company?
What happens to the stock? Can it tank? is it possible for it to increase?

I was playing NUGT / DUST back and forth for 5-10% pretty frequently. Got crushed earlier this year with the big NUGT move but thought it would never hold and just another MM move.......wrong. Sad thing was that I had just sold NUGT after a quick scalp thinking it was going to swing back the other way as it always had.

Hope you guys got out of MGT if you had it. Goodness, it has tanked and it doesn't look good.

I got out a while ago at a nice gain after it was clear none of the promises were going to come to fruition. Unfortunately I'm still in MSTX after the bloodbath today. Oh well, still up over 15% for the year in my investment account and up 5% on my 401(k). This is why I never gamble a lot on penny stocks. I'll hold on to my shares of MSTX just to see what happens.

Kinda figured to watch this thread speak up with topics around the election. I'm still keep an eye on this but I only have about 4K to play with and not a lot of time to trade daily. Figured my money is safer in my wallet, for now.

DCIX made me very happy today, in at 8.89 premarket 200 shares. Also bought 263 shares of TOPS yesterday kinda high at 5.45, dumped it after hours today at 6.30 to get into GSL which I'm 652 shares deep @ 2.47 and I think it'll be a gapper tomorrow. Will have about $4k to play with after another deposit clears tomorrow morning and I'll be focusing on OCUL and to a lesser extent EGLT with that since I don't think this shipping explosion will last more than a couple days longer
