Hi Djovanny,

I agree with the part of Nasdaq 5000 & higher but not with part of bull cycle ending......this bull may go on longer than what you may be ready for......time will tell.

Hey Saleem,

I'm been thinking for a couple days now about valuation and today there's a channel check from OTR Global that indicates some deceleration from November. I thought this would be a good chance to sell.

Hey Saleem,

Sold Z @ 82.80.

As you know I made a mistake with this position and even though it is near support, I have no conviction in the holding, so I feel it best to just sell and move on.

Hey Saleem,

I was looking at LNKD over the weekend but it's up $10+ already since then. I'm not sure if/how to play it now.

Hi Stocktrader,

About LNKD..it is a "strong buy"

Good moves with SPLK & Z....

Hey Saleem,

Added to AGU @ 88.846 based on valuation, 200 DMA bounce, and CF's good report.

Good luck with AGU.

Hey Saleem,

Good luck with the additional ALU. It's outside my sphere of knowledge.

Sold YELP @ 90.902.

This stock has been acting strangely since I purchased it. I wonder if the sentiment on their outlook is being affected by the weather? The more I look at it, the more it feels like it needs to test lower first.

Hi Stocktrader,

TAPE has become difficult in terms of getting traction in most stocks....intraday swing is too much.
