An $AAPL a day will make you gay

$AAPL broke ascending triple top triangle yesterday. (triangles are also gay) I don’t believe this will stick. It’s iPhone hype. Still, noting a pattern on $AAPL is worth documenting. Let’s see how it plays out. What do you think? The great thing about TA is it only deals with charts and doesn’t give a shit about my opinion, that was …

Monero on a roll

Monero, the privacy focused cryptocurrency, punched the mustache off all bearshitters this past month going from $2.5 to ~$13.5 and it’s still running. Unlike Bitcoin, which keeps all transactions on a public ledger, Monero transactions are not traceable. Monero provides a layer of anonymity not available with other cryptocurrencies. The bump in Bitcoin from $575 to $600 may have been …

My Portfolio in Video Form

This video reminds me of my portfolio. I am the fireman rushing from stock to stock to put out fires.

VMW: Stay Within the Lines

VMW has been range bound for ~2 years. How range bound? It’s imitating the basejumpers in this video going up and down a tower in Kuala Lumpur over three days. Buy at 87 and sell at 95ish will be my game with VMW.

You know nothing John Snow (FB and YELP)

A few weeks ago there were several IBC blog posts bashing FB and YELP. I should know, I wrote several of them. Look at them now. FB is up more than 20% since June 1. YELP up for 50% gain. RaginCajun and ChessNWine opened and closed FB positions. IBC blamed FB for everything from egregious stock losses to impotence. There …

Stick a Fork in $YELP

Google just added a “Local” section to Google+. LOL NO ONE USES GOOGLE+ you say? Partially true. Today. But the people that matter do (the early adopters), and the rest will follow. Google has a long term plan to organize the world’s information. Ever use their search? They seem to be doing a pretty good job of it so far. …
