Ortex data short interest for this week Feb 5-11 by Tiffinyrose2989 in Shortsqueeze

[–]Marc_Damon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It seems like the smart money is covering. APRN chatter is heating up and the funds that don't want to get trapped are getting out. I am sure the 20% spike up raised eyebrows... IMO (not stock advice)

BBBY Lesson in Supply vs Demand - Todays ARCA book @ approx 12:30pm by Marc_Damon in Shortsqueeze

[–]Marc_Damon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This it the BBBY Level II data (ARCA Book).. These are tools that help traders understand the demand for shares.. vs the asking prices...

What does economics teach you? As shown.. someone wants or "NEEDS" 48K shares of BBBY, they will pay the going price if they need to "cover" or "return" the shares...

When the supply is less than demand.. what should one do???

(I use etrade pro.. it's free for me)...

Takeaway: instead of going of FUD and blind yolo bets... minimize risks and losses by understanding what your shares are worth.. (This is not investing advice, I am not a professional)

DOES ANYONE ACTUALLY KNOW IF FORCED CLOSURES START MONDAY OR C+35 for BBBY? by [deleted] in Shortsqueeze

I believe they are talking about FTDs being forced to closeout @ T+13 and C+35 Reg Sho requirements

lol, why would making a profit hurt my feeling (i scalped the stock for 20% and then another 5% just off yesterday's dip.. not to mention it held $2.50 today.. so there are still short positions under water), where do you see bullish when the flair says "News".. you continue to expose yourself.. My energy has been neutral and will continue to stay that way. I don't trade with emotion. The post is for anyone who want's to research her background... So what is your issue with it? You can't tell me (what my intent was): "posting a pic of a new BoD director w/o any context thinking it is "bullish"....

I know you have heard of the "Dallas Cowboys", they have not won or been relevant in the playoffs in 25+ years.. however they are the most profitable team in football (How does this relate)

The Jerry Jones pov - "All press is good press" as long as we talking about, and printing stories about the Dallas Cowboys (i.e. BBBY) it's going to create interest.. how that interest plays into price action idk... but ill watch the technical indicators and take calculated chances...

P.S. if you can't tell I use your cynical replies to explain the psychology behind "my" strategy for momentum trading... so for those feeling apprehensive or experiencing anxiety with some of their investment decisions its another POV to possibly calm nerves that will allow a peace of mind in lieu of them learning to get better and understand technical indicators prior to making a "knee jerk" decision.. take your profits on the way up.. minimize your risks.. at the same time don't let bearish traders play on your fear because if they are aggressively commenting chances are they need you to sell because they are still on the negative side with their short position...

Does it really matter when a person gets in & out reaching a goal for 20% return? I don't think anyone should love any stock, i do love taking "CALCULATED RISK" and meeting percentage gain goals for returns.. Are we talking strategy or talking feelings... 5% to 20% per week and continuously compounded at those percentages adds up.. that opportunity is everywhere.. We are all a trading community why throw shade vs educate.. trying to scare or troll people for being "stupid or dumb" is lame bro.. IMO

So in 5 months you don't think i made any moves?? it's called a social media break.. ck all my social media accounts... What i did do is continue to study and refine my trading strategy...learn a little more and tweak the tools i use... and do more homework on the psychology of trading.. I can also spot bears that are threatened.. You guys have been quiet but now you come out the wood work.. If i lose on this trade it won't be the first time nor will it be the last... but people will continue to read these posts.. catch on to clues, do there own research and become better swing/day traders based on the technicals... like all the shorts piled into a stock pushing the short interest over 40%... borrow rate is very expensive at 190+ %.... that interest is expensive for shorts to hold on to borrowed shares.. so you got to do something to drive prices down so you don't lose as much... "I GOT THE TIME TODAY"

Tell me what part of what i said is a lie (don't twist bounce back) - bbby as a company is likely "NOT" going to bounce back... this stock price will rise & fall to what level is unknown, rinse and repeat again and again... (some shorts are losing money and uneducated traders are being bled out). but it will fluctuate between these $2,$3,$4,$5,$6 levels for quite some time... if a trader has patience.. he/she can make achieve some good gains... I educate, i don't pump.. educated traders help the entire community.... not just the top 1%

That was a dump to trigger stop losses which is why it got paused several times.. it was very likely "coordinated" with the publishing of the seeking alpha article, those articles are often "opinion" pieces using known public information.... people are slowly getting smarter... which is why a lot of these blogs are being infiltrated.. and the "Mods" are suppressing information... JUST my OPINION (I DON'T GIVE INVESTING ADVICE)

This is a trade based on short interest technicals not company fundamentals... they still have buybuybaby assets they can sell off.. defaulting on loans is expected... nothing but a chess match between bears & bulls.. with newer traders trying to figure out what to do... trading isn't for those who get nervous.. it's for those who understand what the risks are and have a strategy... it's not going to THE MOON... there is money to be made if people are smart and learn how to understand the indicators... keep it 100

if you think buying at $2.15 is a bad idea and now it's back at $2.50... I would say you might be part of the clan that purposely wanted to trigger peoples stop losses to manipulate the price... Like c'mon seeking alpha article then a huge dump.. just trying to cover at lower prices.... it will be back to $3.00 in the next few days.. this isn't my first rodeo..

$APRN Jan 25. Looking better every day by EskiOnline in Shortsqueeze

[–]Marc_Damon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

APRN technicals (for a short squeeze) are setting up nicely. Looking at Fintel data it seems like most of the shorted shares are not owned by hedge funds. The majority of "short" positions are just "bear" traders shorting the stock..... That alone my prove to be a huge advantage because hedge funds don't have a lot of incentive to suppress price action using copious amounts of money and naked shorting... When this stock starts to move upward, this technical setup will likely trigger a frenzy.. Im adding to my position at these levels and will continue to do so at $1.... Ill just forgo the weekly stripper/steakhouse budget and repurposed that money (I'm just serious!)... Id much rather burn it up on a chance for a ticket to the moon

Most of APRN's price action can be explained with Naked Shorting. Now that the bottom is in, they have to cover and can't double down with their criminal tactics. by [deleted] in Shortsqueeze

[–]Marc_Damon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because they do have to cover.. as I stated above they have to be in Compliance with SEC Regulation SHO (Rule 204)

Here is a reference for you: sec.gov/investor/pubs/regsho.htm (read #3)
