I am tempted to go in for Apple but I really need to see the economy bottoming out. The truth will be revealed when they tally the earnings over the festive period.

It's amazing how the stock has tumbled in just less than 3 months.

if there's any stops or sneaky tweaks that can be done to these government figures this week they will be done. you can count on this administration to publish good news prior to mccain's convention and push this market as much as possible ( exaggerate today revise tomorrow ,lie of omission is the bush style) if we finish down prior to the week end it will be a miracle.

Sometimes it is good to be debating in blog post, however it is not a advisable to go further by posting personal attacks.

I could not agree more.

ED,
and you are who?

Don't be a DICK ED.

You look like more of a ASS than a monkey!

Ed · 1 year ago

hi crazyhorse,

if you played zach's call yesterday, you just got stopped out at $170 for a nice loss.

what Zach didn't tell you yesterday (but he just told people on his googl blog) was that he played a straddle along with the buy the stock at 174-76 call and he is POSITIVE in his trade!!)

Guy is amazing!! You're out of the stock and your money!!

My standard operating procedure on stops is that they are on a closing basis unless there's an intraday reason to pull it, or otherwise noted. For example when there's a very tight stop I would recommend a trigger. But this is a swing trade with a longer horizon. Gotta let it breathe.

Ed · 1 year ago

either way, anyone who listened to that call yesterday, was stopped out today with the close below 170.

your blog post just a short 4 days ago was all about capital preservation.

today, any of your clients would have been stopped out at a loss.

Zach Bass · 1 year ago

Well, Ed, let me just say that I agree with you. I agree that I made a mistake with the construction of the alert. My thinking was to make the stop just above the 50 day moving average, which at the time was $169.74, so I made the stop $170. I now realize that I should have made it just below the 50-DMA at $169.

That makes more sense because one would expect that the 50 DMA is a level of support that if breached would make the risk:reward much smaller. So, I have to apologize for that mistake. The other mistake I made was that I should have spelled out "Stops on a closing basis." Although in this case the first mistake would have trumped that.

In either case, I am still holding my long, and believe it will work out just fine.

Hi Ed,

If you are so pissed, why don't you just roll over? Why do you come here and rant when Zach don't even charge you a dime for sharing some insights of how he trades? You sound like some Guru so why don't you post some of your achievements or leave down your url. If not, just get lost, the sight of you makes me puke. You must have lost a lot to be so frustrated. If you can't take the heat, then don't speculate and stop coming here to bark like an insane hound.

This is short pain. The kind of pain that is inflicted by stubbing your toe in the night going to the bathroom or banging your head against a partially open door. Me, I prefer just to bang my head against a wall and daily, when I see the results of AAPL's moves. With the low volume its been carrying lately, a single fart at a MacWorld Convention will make the stock stink.

macfan · 1 year ago

I have an idea...how about we all just stop reading Zach Bass's crap. "I realize now" that " I made a mistake" by ever reading this garbage. I'm done!

Zach Bass,

Its Zach not Xact. Don't let the bastards get you down. These nasty comments
are the frustrated rant of grown babies who still expect some else to wipe
their asses for them. Sometimes you hit it and sometimes you don't. You're
not a hired investment advisor and I do appreciate your insight.
Keep on keeping on. BTW if you want tech vision or comment on AAPL and
interrelated events with other tech companies from time to time we will
dispense it. We are just not so good at picking the winning days this year
as we've been in the past. But, hey, no one is lately.

I have a great Idea. How about we all just stop reading Zach Bass's crap. "I realize now" that " I was mistaken" to have been reading this garbage all along. I'm done.

Aw...That is sooooo nice. You're a great guy Marcos.

This is a swing trade, which means it has a time horizon from a few days to a couple of weeks. And the setup will stand so long as the performance of the stock and market make it an acceptable risk. I'll have to admit we're skirting on the edge. But so far the trade still has a good risk to return ratio. The big wild card here is how the markets will behave when the big money gets back from the long weekend, and if Gustav has made any significant impact.

Isn’t that interesting. The company that sells cut-rate Windows based machines, with ultra slim margins, can’t compete with Apple which sells first-class personal computers with margins that are the envy of the industry. This looks like another huge opportunity for Apple to gain even more market share. The only concern is that some investors may look at Dell’s poor showing as a reflection on corporate spending.

I have always tempted by stocks progress. The graphics looks nice, though the line is moving downwards so no applause yet. .
