RICK was not the most perfect long compared to what we used to get but that is the point right there. What we used to get is not what we get now. That probably means our market is in for some rough times. However, during this period of time, while the Nasdaq was trending lower, [...]

APPY was a very special long for me because I kept the excitement about the chart down to see if anyone else would notice it. I was right. Nobody did and the only people, besides those that have learned from these Past Big Winners, that did were those in the platinum chat room who happened [...]

AFSI was by far my largest long position in 2007 as this chart was about as near-perfect as they can get for an IPO. It was a very easy decision to load up on this one (It only got to 15% of the portfolio due to the low VIX and low volume in the overall [...]

MAMA was a quick hit but a HUGE hit. Those that were with me at InvestorsParadise should remember this stock real well as when it showed up I brought it to everyone’s attention. I did not know the stock was going to blastoff in two days and produce an IMMEDIATE 100% gain. But that is [...]

PTT was a VERY BIG winner but the very first buy was not the biggest purchase. That was just a test position. The BIG purchases came from 11-16 to 11-23 as the stock started moving on massive volume, with BOP going max green, off a base with no volume. The pattern was very tight and [...]

AAPL was an easy stock to go long as IBD, thank God, was all over this stock with its new exciting product. This made it an easy buy on the breakout but with lack of green BOP I have to admit I did not load up to the point that I should have. Still it [...]

HRZ was an easy stock to LOAD UP as it bounced right off the 50 DMA, broke out to a new recent high on very strong volume and max green BOP that was max green during the very tight base around the 50 DMA. There was only one buy but I made it count as [...]

DSTI was one of my biggest positions in 2005 with it making up a very large chunk of my account as the chart, as you can see, was nearly perfect, even though the fundies were not. The top was nearly impossible to spot but it was still a powerful move in a short amount of [...]

IST was by far my best long in 2004 as this was a huge position in my portfolio as I went very long this stock on a lot of margin. Since this particular chart setup, I do not believe I have seen one as POWERFUL on the breakout buy signal. So this is a chart [...]

NANO was basically a quick hit but it was a big hit and a fast and easy gain. Before the final top, you can see the stock pulled back into one more base where it barely went below the 50 DMA but held the very important line in the sand before taking off for one [...]
