Professional Vs. Amateur Trading

SHORT AMAZON NOW!!!

-----------------------------------------------

Professional vs. Amateur Gaps

When you are looking at gaps on a stock chart, the most important thing that you want to know is this:

Was this gap caused by the amateur traders buying
or selling based on emotion?

Or you migh ask...

Was this gap caused by the professional traders that do not
make emotional decisions?

To figure this out you have to understand this one important
concept first. Professional traders buy after a wave of selling
has occurred. They sell after a wave of buying has occurred.

Amateur traders do the exact opposite! They see a stock advancing
in price and are afraid that they will miss out on the move, so they
pile in - just when the pro's are getting ready to sell.

Look at this example of a gap caused by amateur traders...

See how this stock gapped up after a wave of buying occurred?
Probably short covering? These amateur traders got emotionally
involved in the stock. They piled in after an already extended
move to the upside. They let their emotions dictate that the stock
would continue to move higher and probably bought more and it
eventually collapsed within a few weeks.

These amateur traders eventually lost money as the stock sold off
over the next few weeks. Notice how the stock eventually did go
back up - but only after a wave of selling occurred (professional buying).

We initiated a SHORT on AMZAON after the stock spiked $22 that created the gap like you see in this picture. Usually after a good spike, there is some sideways action and then like 99% of most stocks that spike up in euphoria like this, eventually they will fill the GAP. In the case with Amazon... at or around the $44- $45 level. The market is over heated and without fail, you will see a sell off any day now and this stock will drop too and drop HARD!

Alcoa News, JP Morgan Analyst Sees Buyout Talk as Credible

Boston, Mar 09, 2007 (MidnightTrader via COMTEX) -- Alcoa (AA) shares are higher late in the day after a JP Morgan analyst says he believes buyout talk is credible. He says BHP Billiton (BHP) and Companhia Vale do Rio Doce (RIO) could be possible bidders, as has been reported in the press. He says the stock has value of about $41 per share in buyout scenario. He also raised 2007 earnings estimate to $3.12 per share from $2.65 to reflect an increased outlook for aluminum prices.

China's demand for copper remains strong
Robust appetite for metals points to unshaken industrial base, analysts say
Last Update: 6:23 PM ET Feb 28, 2007

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- So much for the Shanghai shudders. China is still likely to expand its consumption of copper and aluminum by at least 9% this year, said Citigroup Wednesday, a day after worries about a possible slowdown in the world's largest consumer of the metals triggered a global market rout -- with mining stocks hit particularly hard.
Analyst John Hill forecast Chinese copper demand will increase 9.2% this year, reversing a drop last year when Chinese copper users worked down domestic stockpiles.

Growth will likely speed up again in 2008, increasing 15%, as the country's demand for the conductive metal used in building pipes and wiring continues to expand, Hill predicted.

Likewise, China's aluminum consumption should expand by 15.5% this year, lighter than last year's growth rate, but still putting it firmly ahead of all other global users.
"We remain ardent adherents of the commodity supercycle," Hill wrote in a research report, referring to far-reaching, multi-year trends in the commodities market.
He added: "[we] do not believe that metals are artificially-inflated, supply-threatened, or cyclically 'cooked.'"

Still, he qualified that optimistic outlook by saying commodities are entering "a more mature phase" that places a premium on metals companies that show internal growth.

The Markets Will Soon Be Back On Track

Looks like Greenspan's comments over the weekend have spooked the market following a drop in the Chineese market. Testifying the day after the market's 416-point plunge, Bernanke told the House Budget Committee that the Fed was monitoring market developments but had seen nothing that would cause it to change its positive outlook for the economy.

Discussing market operations, he said, "They seem to be working well, normally."

In what might have been a reference to Greenspan, Bernanke said there did not appear to be just one cause for Tuesday's sell-off.

The possible causes suggested by analysts ranged from a record drop in China's Shanghai index, a surprisingly weak U.S. manufacturing report and weekend comments by Greenspan that raised the possibility of a U.S. recession by year's end.

Alcoa Upgraded Today - BUY

From Barron's Online

BARRON'S
 By Tom Sullivan

If Australia's BHP Billiton or Britain's Rio Tinto hopes to buy Alcoa, the
American aluminum giant, as was rumored last week, they might have to pay a lot
more than $40 billion -- the price tag attached to the rumors. Sure, that tab
would represent a 33% premium to Alcoa's current $30 billion market value, but
it doesn't begin to reflect the turnaround afoot at the Dow industrials
component.

Barron's has been a fan of Pittsburgh-based Alcoa for some time (see "Alcoa's
Shiny Prospects," Aug. 8, 2005, and "Pricing Outlook Bright for Alcoa," Jan.
22, 2007). Yet the stock, for all its gyrations, did little from the date of
our first story, when it traded at 28, until this January. Indeed, Alcoa (AA)
has returned just 4%, dividends included, in the past five years, compared with
North American rival Alcan's (AL) total return of 65%.

Tuesday, Alcoa jumped as much as 10%, to 36.05, on takeover speculation, but
ended the week around 34.50, suggesting Wall Street sees no deal in the offing.
That would suit John Buckingham, manager of the Al Frank Fund (ticker: VALUX),
fine. "The ship is sailing the right course," he says, "but this is not the
time to be selling the company."

Buckingham, whose firm owns 162,000 Alcoa shares, understands why BHP and Rio
Tinto might be interested in a deal, especially at a bargain price. After all,
he says, "the ugly duckling is now a swan." But he views a bid of $55 a share,
or about $48 billion, as a much fairer price for Alcoa holders. Alcoa has
dismissed the takeover talk, while BHP and Rio Tinto didn't comment.

An acquisition of Alcoa would help both BHP (BHP), which calls itself the
world's largest diversified-resources company, and Rio Tinto, an international
mining concern, consolidate their positions in the aluminum industry. Aluminum
has underperformed other metals, in part because China produces 30% of the
world's supply. But the market has found support from commercial construction
and the transportation/aerospace sectors, CreditSights said in a recent report.

Investors in Alcoa, which makes Reynolds Wrap, Dura-Bright car wheels and
Spout Pouch beverage containers, as well as aluminum for industrial uses, can
expect to benefit. The company is likely to earn $3.03 a share this year,
compared with last year's $2.96. Alcoa trades for 11.4 times '07 estimates and
yields 2%.

In January, Alcoa announced plans to buy back up to 10% of its shares, in
part via debt. That prompted credit-rating agency Standard & Poor's to lower
its rating on Alcoa to triple-B-plus -- two notches below the rating the
company's debt received from rival Moody's Investors Service.

Yet the yield margins, or spreads, on Alcoa's bonds narrowed a bit in active
trading after the takeover reports surfaced; the company's 5.95% bonds due 2037
narrowed by three basis points (a basis point is 100th of a percentage point)
to 106 basis points over Treasuries with comparable maturities. That's despite
talk that the deal might be done as a leveraged buyout.

"It's a doable deal," says Eric Tutterow, managing director at Fitch Ratings,
implying Alcoa is not too large to be swallowed. "With a name like that . . .
there would be a lot of support in the high-yield and leveraged-loan markets."

A $40 billion acquisition would trump last year's record $39 billion buyout
of Arcelor by the Netherlands' Mittal Steel (MT). But Alcoa shareholders could
be counting even more millions before any deal is done.

A Lot Of Rumors Running Now On Apple - AAPL

MarketWatch 3:42 p.m. 02/07/2007 By Frank Barnako Something's happening here. Apple Inc.'s computer-meister is plotting something big. Really big. Like ... maybe ... new Beatles tracks we haven't heard ... which will be sold through iTunes and will not be protected by digital rights technology.

There was much speculation Apple (AAPL) would use last month's MacWorld to announce the addition of Beatles music to iTunes. Instead, Steve Jobs held up an iPhone, loaded with Beatles tunes, while Beatles graphics and music play onstage. Presumably the tracks came from his CD collection. (Yeah, right!)

Apple Recon has also reported there will be some sort of Apple "event" on Feb. 20. This has not been confirmed by the company. (In an earlier version of this post, I said the company had formally scheduled an announcement for the end of the month. I was wrong.) There is lots more speculation about Apple and that date here.

Nevada Man Wins Largest Penny Jackpot in History

LAS VEGAS, Jan 31, 2007 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- A Nevada resident became a multi-millionaire this afternoon when his penny investment paid off on Penny Megabucks(R) at the Pahrump Nugget Casino. He hit the MegaJackpot(R) for $18,799,414, the largest penny slot jackpot ever won.

"On my way over to the casino this morning," said the anonymous 66-year-old man, "I actually thought about playing Penny Megabucks(R). I don't know why because I normally play video poker. So after rolling several practice games, I went to have lunch and on the way back to the lanes, I stopped to play Penny Megabucks(R)."

"I put in $100 and after playing $44, I saw five eagles line up and thought I had won about $3,000," he added. "Then I looked up, and the large jackpot on top of the machine had switched from $18 million to $10 million. Then I knew I had won something big."

In the meantime read this... TIMET Announces New Long-Term Supply Agreement and Sale of Joint Venture Interest

DALLAS, Jan. 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Titanium Metals Corporation ("TIMET") (NYSE: TIE) today announced that it has completed the sale of its 43.7% interest in Valtimet SAS, a manufacturing joint venture between TIMET, ValTubes SAS, Sumitomo Metals Industry and Sumitomo Corp formed in 1997 for the manufacture of welded stainless steel and titanium tubing. TIMET had contributed its wholly owned titanium tubing facility to the Valtimet joint venture in 1997. ValTubes SAS acquired TIMET's interest in Valtimet SAS for $75 million cash and TIMET will report a pre tax gain on the sale of its interest in Valtimet of approximately $39 million in its fourth quarter results. TIMET and Valtimet also entered into a new long-term agreement pursuant to which TIMET will supply up to 2,500 metric tons of titanium strip annually to Valtimet for use in the manufacture of welded titanium tubing. Steven L. Watson, TIMET's Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "This sale transaction allows us to monetize our minority non-controlling joint venture interest position in Valtimet at an attractive value and redeploy the proceeds into expansion of our productive capacity or other growth opportunities in our core and emerging business segments that we believe will provide the opportunity for an increased return on investment. The new supply agreement provides us the opportunity to continue to participate in the welded tubing market segment on attractive terms. After application of the proceeds of the sale to pay down our bank borrowings, we will have no net debt. We have a strong balance sheet and significant sources of capital and liquidity to allow us to capitalize on capacity expansion projects across all stages of our production process and invest in other growth opportunities as we continue to respond to the long-term positive outlook across major current and emerging markets."

Oil Rallies - Good News For Metals Stocks, ATI, TIE, AA

Saudis to Cut Oil Output, Again

In an aggressive attempt to shore up oil prices, the WSJ reports that Saudi Arabia -- which has already dropped its oil output -- will cut production a further 158,000 barrels/day effective Feb. 1, bringing its total cuts since last summer to 1 million b/d. This is nearly double the total cuts it agreed to during OPEC summits, and brings its output to "around 8.5 million b/d." Saudi oil officials say more cuts are on the way, but have been careful not to pinpoint a price target. Roger Diwan, an analyst at PFC Energy, a Washington industry consultancy, says this: "They are defending prices from falling below $55 quite aggressively... The Saudis, they don't talk a lot, so look at what they do, and that will give you the whole story." Yesterday crude traded down $1.41 to $54.01/barrel when the outgoing Saudi ambassador to the U.S. said current price levels are "adequate to meet the requirements of producing and consuming countries," and dismissed speculation that Saudi Arabia was trying to drive prices down in order to hurt Iran's export revenues.

Tech Sector Is Hit Hard Due To Intel

Despite Intel's slide, all eyes were on the action at Apple, who reported a 78% surge in sales yesterday! Truly, news for the record books! Good going guys. As far as our explanation for the drop, we feel that the unwarranted sell-off was related to some very Big Hedge Funds holding the stock down with options expiration occurring this Friday. Monday will tell a different story! But why options manipulation and the stock?? Our explanation is simple. Some very Big, and very well financed Hedge Fund(s) sold several millions of dollars of out of the money calls (ie) Jan 100, Jan 95, and/or Jan 90 calls and needed the stock to close below the strike prices to make the options expire at zero or worthless tomorrow (triple witching). Eventually these funds will have to Buy back the shares that they have sold short to get the stock down in their manipulation as we saw months ago with GM. In that case the hedge fund went BUST when the stock reversed!

Also - Paid bashers (paid by hedge fund shorts) who sit on stock message boards all day and night long and post a negative comment over every positive statement that is made so don't even waste your time there. This is much bigger business than you think. You see shorts prey on negativity and emotions and that translates into multiple millions.

Apple stock should be at $105 with these impressive numbers, so don't throw in the towel just yet. For those who want to sell, wait for the euphoria to hit on some news of either a:

2:1 Stock Split
iTV Announcement
Stock Upgrades
other positive news relating to the "NEW" Apple.

Be Good. We Love AAPL.

The Sell-Off In AAPL Shares Seems Overdone

As usual and in typical fashion, Apple provided conservative guidance below consensus for the fifth quarter in a row to keep expectations in check. The good news is that each quarter the numbers are usually better than analysts expect. What do analysts really know anyways?

Be smart. Buy the dips, and sell on the euphoria.

Delphi Is Raring Back - DPHIQ

Buy on any significant dips it seems. Each severe drop looks like a temporary wash-out of weak shareholders.

This stock has some BIG players who are holding the majority of the shares. Look for new highs soon if you can hold out.

Wait For The 2:1 Split News On Apple

Wait for the 2:1 Split action.

When you think that you have this all figured out, think again. Wall Street will always surprise you.

Apple Reports Record 1Q Profit

Analysts were looking for $6.0 - $6.2 Billion in revenue and the company produced $7.12 Billion.

The results beat the estimates of analysts surveyed by Thomson First Call, who expected Apple to earn 78 cents a share on revenue of $6.42 billion.

iPod sales estimates were 15 million iPods and the number came in at 21 million.

Hold on, Apple stock could see $100 by Friday!
