    Howdy - as a new memebr again I want tos ay that this community is AWESOME!!! and thew work from Steve and Matt is unparalled.  A few weeks back I posted asking for some help on JRCC (chart) and I recived some great feedback.  I still have the big position (160,000 shares) and the stock seems to be getting so tight...it was down today but on bery light volume, any thoughts on this...what kind of formation is this morphng into? any targets potentially good or bad...my average is $15.60...no martgin and I can hold but I like to trade every 2-4 weeks, I've owned this about a month now.  Thansk to all....Ed

    I recall replying to your previous post and said that the technicals looked good and that the 5,3,3 on the S&P was looking encouraging; that would keep me in it long, but with tight stops.  Up to close on Wed, that looked reasonably good.

     

    The technicals now don't look as good - closed below it's 20MA yesterday, MACD could be setting up some negative divergence.  Yesterday's close is right at the channel's lower uptrend line, possibly below it depending on how you draw it.  And given the market gave back all of Wednesday's gains yesterday, I'd be exceedingly cautious.  The 5,3,3 on the S&P looks to be turning over.  Support if it falls appears to still be around 12.50, which is also the 50MA.  I'd be taking a lot off the table and putting a tight stop below the lower trendline.  You risk getting stopped out if it dips below and recovers, but you can always get back in.  If it drops quickly to support, that's a LOT of pain.  Good luck.

    quite frankly in a market like this , it`s crazy to own 160,000 shares of any stock , even if you are an institutional holder. But if tell me you are short 160000 shares of any stock, then that means serious business
