I'm getting frustrated with DDD. Maybe that's what they want... It was trading higher in pre-market. And I'm starting to talk myself into a rally for next week. lol. I'm going to try to stick with this one yet. (try)

Yeah Huh. I'm gonna hold it into next week. Like you, I think we go higher thru next week.

But if it happens quickly, then likely to rally the rest of the week. And who knows, maybe it'll rally squeeze first. I hope so, since I just dumped my hedge (short oil). But if not, I'll look to add other positions.

I'm getting frustrated with DDD. Maybe that's what they want... Why couldn't DDD had done like INTC did? INTC traded under it's neckline for the small part of 1 day, then the very next day, BOOM, up more than 12% from that low. That's how a squeeze is supposed to happen. Since early February, DDD has had like 12 days under the neckline with hardly a pop. I guess that's the difference with low and high p/e ratios. I cleared my lines on DDD's chart and started over, and I too am losing patience with this one. I'm really wishing I simply dumped it when it failed the 27.85 iH&S neckline breakout yesterday. That was a warning sign. With the action of the last 2 days, it's really looking like a large rounded top forming right above the neckline of a very large H&S pointing waaay down from here. I've seen that larger pattern all along, but was hoping for higher with this RS peak. It's hard to even call what it's done a right shoulder because the pop is so small. Hopefully we can get lucky and it squeezes yet from here. But it would be only that now...lucky. Upside squeeze targets would be around 29.60, 32 and 46.50. But honestly, 28.20 might be a challenge for it now. We'll see. I'll keep a tight stop, but overall I'm wishing I had instead played INTC for the RS squeeze. That one's at least working, and it only took a day to show itself.

That one's at least working, and it only took a day to show itself. Ahh screw it. I'll try to sell DDD after-hours for 27.35, ~1/2% loss. If no takers, I'll hope for a pop Monday. I got to thinking, if I have to worry this much about a stock that I think will fall hard in the long run anyway, I shouldn't be in it. Not worth my time worrying about it. Had it performed like INTC, I'd stay with it. Also, a competitor, VJET, reported earnings today and saw a 16% pop. But then, a more than 10% decline from HOD. Why try to swim against that kind of current?

Gareth likes DDD in the short term and even likes it more in the longterm. He believes that in the next year it will bounce back to higher levels like all the solar stocks have done. GL

Stopped out of DDD. I give up on this one for now. I don't want anything that can't hold a rally with the market.

Gene is another ITMS that didn't work...their s-t calls used to work for me. I hope you didn't sell GENE because of my posts Novie. I feel awful even if you didn't.

I pass on GENE and get DDD instead... my luck continues!
Still holding DDD, but I don't really know why at this point.
PS-- Many thanks Jack for asking about DDD

Seriously, if I caused her to miss this trade I'm not giving anymore unsolicited analysis. Only the trades I'm in. I really feel bad about that one.

Still holding DDD...

Another downgrade on Fri. for DUK which I own in l-t portfolio...+1.88% on news of 1.5 million share buyback. It has been hammered recently as utilities would be affected by higher interest rates.
