I’ve had BitCoins in my portfolio since earlier this year but I don’t know anybody but me and maybe a couple of my TradingWithCody.com subscribers who own any BitCoins $BTC. I don’t know anybody else who’s even considering buying BitCoins right now or ever. I see BitCoins on the front page of Marketwatch a lot lately and there’s a […]

Trade Alert – Everything you need to know about $TWTR and locking in some $GSVC profits
I’m so disappointed with how Twitter’s management and bankers have brought this company public today that I don’t know that I’ll ever invest in Twitter. See, by my calculations, $TWTR just left $1.6 billion of shareholder money on the table by pricing their 80 million shares of stock they’ve sold $20 under where the market is today. If […]

I make many mistakes and one of the keys […]
Trade Alert – Tesla crashes, we mostly move on
Just a quick trading update for now, more to come in a bit. Tesla’s quarterly report was exactly as I’d expected, not up to the elevated expectations. So the stock was off about 10% earlier this morning and is now off nearly 15% an hour into the trading day. I’m going to sell half my […]

Weekend Reading – First Solar, Obamacare vs Scutify and Container Store IPO FAIL
