Anyone invested in the market

Sold my AAPL shares yesterday at around $101 a share, making around $700 in profits in a week. I bought 400 shares of AMAT at $16.88, which I will keep for the time being. So now GoPro and AMAT make up the majority of my portfolio. I also decided to make a risky, but potentially very lucrative, investment in BTG, which I think has bottomed out at $0.66. I bought 4000 shares. I'm hoping it'll jump soon so I can free up the funds to purchase more longs.

Nice job on BTG. I watched it when you said this and you've done well. Is the run up over?

I think it still shows an upward trend. However, given yesterday's downturn, I took the opportunity at market opening bump to sell at $0.81. I'll take the $600. :)
 
Also this morning, I bought 1000 shares of HNSN at $3.03. They received FDA approval for a new robotic procedure yesterday, and yet, they opened today LOWER than their pre-FDA close. Granted, rumors about FDA approval ramped up the stock a bit over past 3 days, but I think this should recover somewhat. I am hoping to sell around 3.50, or cut my losses around 2.90.

Got stopped. You win some, you lose some.
 
Small world....look what stock I've been trying to short for the past two days:

Could've gotten in at 4.4 when I first saw it yesterday....no shares though. Kind of pissed. That would've been a good ride down. Finally got in @ 3.19.

Just picked up a few shares at 2.91 - my eggs are in your basket based on your one success story earlier in this thread. :) Thanks!

You're up significantly. You should watch it closely and sell as soon as it starts to dip.

I don't think it's a good idea to short at 3.19.

"Buy the rumor, sell the news". Typical forward looking and front running.
 
I love these volatile down up more down markets. All the blowhards around the office who wouldn't last an hour on Wall Street puffing their chests and pumping that I told you this was the end nonsense. I find it comical knowing these dudes are going to lose their asses over the next 6 months.

More than anything though, I love the drama story unfolding, trying to figure out what each piece of the pie is trying to say with their buys and sells. All the political and geo-political implications, etc. It's my version of a great movie.
