  • debeers: $AYI-Already reported and beat last years results by 46.5%. No new earnings until January. They should go up 15-17% from here IMO.LONG
  • debeers: @bRobert $AYI -You are welcome, sir!
  • debeers: $AYI-What if you could find something that has already reported, and did well and was up 3% from a pivot point. I bought this today AFTER listening to the earnings call.
    THE WHY OF THE BUY-
    Performance:
    1 Year
    +76.6%
    3 Year
    54.1%
    Goldman has it as a ...

    "$AMRN $AYI I got to the session about 20 minutes late, but time was perfect for
    watching these two stocks. I entered $AMRN at 10:12 and AYI at 10:22 after intra day
    consolidation and just before their moves higher. Out of both around 10:51 wit ...
  • Wolf: #Earnings $AYI Vol .39M down 10% PM on rev. Miss.
  • champ: $AYI, is in the same type of business as $OLED, lighting but only slowly moving. Schwab, has this stock rated A....and they report earnings after $OLED.
  • champ: $OLED and $AYI....both strong and are still working.
  • Sluggo: @champ $OLED $AYI I see the long W pattern on $OLED, but AYI shows a gradual downturn that needs to be corrected and needs time to do that. I am looking back to late 2016 and don't see anything to make me buy it now. Am I missing something?
  • champ: @Sluggo $OLED $AYI --- Not at all .....I'm dancing with these stocks, daily and my profits are growing. Many stocks are hard too dance with but both of these are working......and I'm swinging the lagger. I have know clue on how the markets will react after earnings in morning....but this trucker...$JBHT, is really working, for now.
  • champ: @Sluggo $OLED $AYI ---- There are Chart traders and News, Momentum, Bounce, and 1-day swing trader, into the open. A lot of ways to trade the markets, I trade all of them...plus great Day-Trades.
  • champ: $OLED and $AYI these are happy stocks today....and on $OLED, I keep moving with-it but this stock has a lot of dance moves that I have not seen too many times before and I have been doing this for a long time. I have been with Schwab, for over 35 years now, they said.
  • Robert1965: $AYI still going
  • champ: $AYI @ $128, back-in this morning, turn off of that Flash LOD.
  • champ: $SPY $DJI both had nice moves off of their lows, the $DJI is now up +180 points off of LOD----There were many opportunities this morning, a lot to do....off of that Flash market low. Payroll numbers were positive, but the guesser's, are guessing, that is negative. I posted yesterday, that the markets will be testing today and Monday. Need to see the close today, need to see what the dip buyers do with all their new profits, ....Testing, Testing...to see how high their profits can move-up, off of this flash low. $OLED, is outperforming $AYI...$HD, $ROKU, these were a few on many bounce trades, need to see if they swing these positions and others....follow the markets or just sit back and take notes. Nice moves off of the lows...on both of these $Z $ZG, now what, maybe many will stop buying homes, over the weekend.
  • champ: $AYI...up $4.00 of LOD and $OLED, is up $5...they both have positive reasons, you have to have lighting. Investment positions...upgrades.
  • champ: $AYI @ $134.70 +$4.50 .....nice set-up this morning in the Pre-market, moving off of a nice upgrade, target raise to $150.
  • jlutzkanin: $AYI - bouncing after earnings gap
  • Pcdentist: @DAN Another great Session this morning. Made money on $AYI and $COTY Frankly, as a new trader ( 1.5 years ) , it took several of these fast paced Sessions to be able to learn from them,,,but now I get lots of Dans insight,,,priceless!

  • DAN: @stairm01 $AMRN $AYI That's a really really great testimonial, stairm01. I appreciate you sharing your experience with other members...not so much because it's a pat on the back to me and others here...but because sharing your experience will help other, newer members see that perseverance and persistence will ultimately pay off...and will pay dividends for the rest of your life. Thanks again. 8-) Glad this is working so well for you. And I'm more than happy to take another yearly fee off your hands. ;-) LOL. Dan

  • Iceman: $AYI #ShortPuts #FallingKnife – Sold 1 AYI AUG 17 2018 100.0 Put @ 1.50 with the stock at 155
  • Iceman: $AYI #ShortPuts #FallingKnife – Bought to close 1 AYI Nov 17 2017 125.0 Put @ 0.05. It won’t trade any lower. A high priced stock, so a high margin requirement. Sold at 2.60 on 04/05/2017.
  • Iceman: $AYI #ShortPuts - Bought to close 1 AYI NOV 17 2017 105.0 Put @ 0.05. It won't trade any lower and this is a high priced stock with over 6 weeks left until expiration. Originally sold on 05/26/2017  @ 1.10 as a #Fallingknife trade.

  • Trixie: @woodman $USCR $BLDR #BuildingMaterials I have a starter in $AYI and $LII, i just can't help but notice the bearish cross of the 50 down thru the 200m
  • woodman: @Trixie $USCR $BLDR $AYI $LII #BuildingMaterials I'm attuned to the shorter moving averages now, such as the 5 and 8 dEMAs, since on the whole the entire sector has turned up. Trying to find some that aren't so extended already but are being dragged up by the sector. It's all part of my aversion to chasing ones that have already made the strong moves and are on such steep upward angles.
  • Trixie: @woodman $USCR $BLDR $AYI $LII #BuildingMaterials sounds like a good idea...
  • woodman: @Trixie $USCR $BLDR $AYI $LII #BuildingMaterials - Thanks, but well see. The flip side is that there's a reason they've not moved as much and/or aren't as extended.
  • Trixie: @woodman $FBHS From the wkly it looks pretty good.. You might also want to consider $LII. off the wkly. A p/b on both would make a nicer entry imo.. $AYI could be ok too. (wkly based) however it still seems to be stuck in its downtrend.
  • cmaxwel1: $AYI breaks out, 27 in IBD 50.
  • Trixie: @cmaxwel1 $AYI Earnings are also out of the way w them being at the end of June.. :)
  • Trixie: @woodman $MAS $AYI looks similar.. Volume is just poor and more expensive.. Been working off its pop from earnings at the beginning of April.
  • DrScience: $AYI earnings pop being sold.
  • Trixie: @DAN $amzn $aapl $fbhs Maybe a few more of similar patterns within that building area, $LII,$AYI, and $AOS (if it can come out of this flag or the right shoulder of what could be a h'n's daily)
  • Aragorn: #IBD 50 actionable signals combo shots $AYI inside day and inside week $POOL inside day and inside month $VRSK - inside day and inside week. $EW reversal strat week setup above 88.10 go time Monthly signals in force $SWHC inside month ad up Monthly Hammers and up $AHS $AVGO $AYI $CTXS $DG $MTSI $MXL $NVDA $OLED $ORLY $SKT $VRSK
  • Trixie: @woodman $CBPX $AWI $APOG $USG $SUM $NCS $PGEM $CX $TREX $MDU $BLD $BECN $VMC $MAS #BuildingMaterials $CREE I can't endorse buying any here.. However I do think it is in the process of heading higher over time. Over all the more common ma's hasn't been over the 200ma in ages.. They do the #LED lights and a few other things.. I have picked up $AYI for a while also in LEDs /lighting.. One can choose either one near 52 week lows or highs..
  • Trixie: ...
    Some that are coming to mind on these are: $HD, $AYI $FB.. I realize that in many there is no way to know earnings are going to do to your stock.. Something like $AYI would be a stock I would like to ride along with as long as the over all trend st ...
  • SierraJW: @Trixie $HD $AYI $FB Maybe I am not the best source, as I have not been trading much due to the instability of the market, but here are my thoughts. Those seem to be 3 very different patterns today. $FB have had a good earnings report, and the WSJ has a positive outlook, for the future. $AYI seems to have found support at 188, and is having a good day today, up to 201-202, and above the 200day ma. $HD seems to be in the middle between the 200 and the 50 sma's, consolidating today. Of the 3, $AYI seems to be at a watch-point and may pull back some, but I don't know. I am just watching, at this point. NP in $HD and $AYI, small position in FB, LT hold.
  • Trixie: @SierraJW $HD $AYI $FB I'll try to pm you over the weekend with some charts and my thoughts.. Adding charts takes more time :)
