I'm not sure who is buying this market up, I would speculate it's companies stock buyback with cheap money....thanks Feds....stupid bastards.

YOD is still up, although down from the close on Thursday. The others ... ouch. I'll hold for a few days but am not sure these will play out as I had hoped.
+++++++++
Well I added to MGI yesterday - more than I was probably meant to - to get an average cost of 13.71. Today recouped a lot of the loss from yesterday so I'm not freaking out. YOD is profitable but not at where it was on Thursday, and BKS is marginally up as well. These trades show a lack of discipline but will probably not hurt me too much.

Kevin...something to keep in mind, these oversold bounces after a significant drop >6%, will be shorted, so not a good place to become a long term investor....cut losses and move on.

Well, at the close today two of the three are profitable (including MGI) so I may have dodged a bullet.
Your comments are spot on and I'll likely put in tight stops at the open tomorrow to see if they run a bit - or I get tagged for a modest loss, which after the recent run of profitable trades I have had would not be too painful.
Thanks,
K

Nice chart on DANG.... the charts look ready for a rest or pullback.. IMHO
Oversold filter: watch VXX, SDS, TZA, GLD, FAZ.
Had a buy trigger on SLV.

Out of MGI at 13.91. Average entry cost was 13.71 so I made $200. Sloppy trade that ended up OK - not proud of it.
Out of YOD at 3.30. Entry cost was 3.20 so I made $100, but I could have gotten out at a better price on Thursday.
Still in BKS - entry was 300 shares at 16.67, now trading about 16.60.
