Woo hoo!!! Finally...from 1955 (peak) to 1930... in three days. But. need to see more!

Target price: 1860-1870'ish.. (slightly below 50ma area)

Hate to say it.. but maybe need more things to blow up in middle east for bulls to retreat.

I can't believe this but TWTR is making me money for past 2-3 weeks.
This time, it will be called away. Sold $36 call - too low for this week closed.

I dunno about the best but I'm using TDAmeritrade (TDA) with its powerful ThinkOrSwim (TOS) trading platform.

Wow.. everything moves up in tandem tonight.

twtr is moving up quite a lot now.....dunno if its a good time to sell? or keep for further profit?

Why not trailing stop,.. like -$1 ~ $1.50.

They took mine away last friday with $36 calls executed. Now, i sell $36 puts for Friday expiration to see if I can get assigned and get it back while I wait for the pull back. If not, I'll get the premium.

TWTR is quite fast moving... +20% move in two weeks. It can move 10% in either direction within a week.

This crazy bull no interest in football, I guess.

Solar stocks rallied strong...(FSLR, YGE, etc)

My fav are just two for now, just like last month: SUNE and JASO.

i got in FSLR...made some paper profit....did not go in for SUNE....but SUNE fly so much higher hahaha

I think because of the situation in Iraq, Oil price spikes..then higher Oil prices then the speculation here is to get more into alternative energy like Solar energy.

Market uptrend ahead of FED Meeting and FED going to reduce bond purchase??

GDP 4Q 2013 = up 2.6%
GDP 1Q 2014 = -1%
GDP 2Q 2014 = will be out on 25th June 2014
IMF reduces US economic growth to 2% in year 2014 and maintain 3% growth in year 2015.
Employment = ok

With negative growth in 1Q 2014, expects FED to maintain present bond purchase size and
delay interest rate hike to new date to make market more happier?
World Cup Fever makes market volume thin and casino stocks downtrend.

Holly xxxx.
Stocks up, Bonds up.
Fed wins it all once again.

Yellen fed the bulls with more adrenaline pills!

All pumped up..

The market is adding more and more uncertainty energy onto the soon arriving zero bond buying event. Now we worry more on market pushing it up all the way so that the huge bear can attack right after they stop the bond buying. As we all said, it's not healthy to bull so long and so strong. Strategy, strategy.....

I just stay long stocks and sell calls (and buy cheap protective far out puts) until things change otherwise.
The puts are cheap because of low volatility.

Even non-US stocks like Xinhua 25 (FXI) got bull mode started for more than two months..
My leverage play XPP suddenly got up to $56.. I was expected only $52-53.
Like Solar stocks, going to see how high it can go.

Wanting to get back into TWTR.. but no pull back.

china/hk market still bullish today.
3 more weeks for world cup hope on bear attack.

What do you guys usually use to invest USA stocks/securities, care to share?
TDameritrade, OptionExpress, E*Trade or local brokerage?

cheeers

If I invest in the US and lets say I have 10K USD. Does anybody know what the WireTranfer fees are from the US? Has anybody done it before? Just want to know what the hit will be.

I use etrade.....not because it is good .... but because it is the broker that is sponsored by my wife company

Usually, the sending side have to pay fees ($40-$50 depending on wire service) but the receiving side - no deduction that I'm aware.
