  • mharps: $GERN added as it moves over the 50 dma
  • mharps: $GERN added more this am
  • Docoof: @Jwhite Hi, Jwhite. Do one of these so the ticker shows up: $ + GERN = $GERN. —Looks like you made a great trade! Congrats!
  • woodman: @Jwhite $GERN - It may knock down a bit tomorrow due to a proposed offering of stock hitting after hours now. It happens all the time in these small biotechs after a big move.
  • issues: @woodman $GERN The IBD RS is 99 with a composite of 74 and B- accum. I put in an order for a small starter (50 shares). Thanks for the heads up! It's dipping in the AH but with the volume this huge it goes up again tomorrow I predict!
  • Jwhite: @Docoof $GERN ok
  • Petra7333: $GERN undervalued with high short interest making a move today
  • kshaggy456: $gern breaking out golden cross
  • kshaggy456: $gern breaking out
  • shoredriver: $GERN.....off 68% on news thatJ&J ends partnership....np
  • Reif99: @shoredriver $GERN I had one, that stings a bit. Science was OK but not overwhelming. Two or three years from now $GERN might get bought for a pretty big number, but it's going to be a bit of a long slog, I think.
  • shoredriver: @Reif99 $GERN Likely to be trading for pennies in a year or two....
  • Wolf: @shoredriver $GERN No shares readily available at Fidelity for short.
  • Reif99: @shoredriver $GERN No, I don't think so. I think they've got enough to get a drug to a pretty big market (for a small cap company). But like I said it's gonna be a while. I'm not going to wait around for it. I'm trying to figure out how to get out the most out of this this week and then I'll be cheerleader. The science has great potential, but I think most of the potential is as a combo drug, and it's tough to start out that way.
  • shoredriver: @Reif99 $GERN good luck.....
  • Reif99: @Wolf $GERN There will be plenty tomorrow, I think, This has been a hard to short stock for while.
  • ab3250: $GERN - brokeout of resistance
  • Reif99: @zimzala $INCY Careful with INCY. JNJ is going to announce whether or not they continue their partnership with Geron ($GERN) by September 30. Geron's drug Imetelstat would be a direct competitor to INCY's Jakafi and a positive announcement by jNJ could really hurt INCY.
  • efrain007: $GERN anyone know what's up with this? I don't see news but it's up about 20% in pre market.
  • efrain007: $GERN any experienced option traders know what this means? Sept. 21 $5 Puts sweep (6) at the Ask: 500 @1.051 vs 14647 OI.k I ask because $GERN dropped quite a bit shortly after this option alert went out. Curious if it's coincidence or something happening in options that caused the drop. I know nothing about options. Thanks.
  • Reif99: $GERN very risky biotech, phase 3 short squeeze.
  • Reif99: $GERN above $4 - short squeeze.
  • Reif99: $GERN Binary asymmetric trade. Will likely either be half or a multiple bagger by the end of September. JNJ decision pending on whether to continue drug partnership by end of Q3. Nice price action today on no obvious news. Extremely speculative. Not for the faint of heart.
  • Reif99: $GERN Not the type of stock we generally see here. One trick biotech pony, will probably either go to zero or be a multiple bagger by the end of September.They are in partnership with $JNJ and JNJ has to make a decision to continue or bail by the end of Q3. I'm long stock and DEC calls. This is about as speculative as it gets, so do your due diligence. making a nice move today, but has had many fake outs before.
  • Reif99: @spmeyers $GERN As usual, it'a mixed bag and I think by the reaction of the stock, buy the rumor sell the news. Everyone is "encouraged," but no one is willing to say it's a stone cold winner. 34% of their patients have been without blood ...
  • Reif99: @gwenzee $GERN Not just skinny, Imetelstat is the whole thing. I've been in this stock for about 3-4 years. The science is compelling, but the arrangement they have with JNJ is murky at best, and frankly I don't think GERN management is very shareh ...
  • gwenzee: @Reif99 $GERN I do not follow this stock. I have never bought this stock. It was others who were looking at it. I think that was Spmeyers and Champ. My post was to give another Bio, that had a good pipeline, a look. EXEL
  • spmeyers: @Reif99 $GERN thanks for that insight; any word on the presentation?
  • spmeyers: $GERN nice setup
  • champ: @spmeyers $GERN --- This is exactly what I'm looking for, new ideas..I will check all 3 out ...#Thanks!
  • spmeyers: @champ $GERN #Thanks GERN is a roller coaster but looks like going up for now. I didn't mention $CTIC but that biotech also looks good for a swing trade.
  • gwenzee: @spmeyers @champ $GERN #Thanks 06/17/2018 Enrollment in expanded Part 1 of IMerge trial completed February 2018. Presentation of data at EHA June 17 8:30am CET. Imetelstat - IMerge Study Myelodysplastic syndromes 09/30/2018 Phase 2 primary analysis due 3Q 2018. Imetelstat - IMbarkStudy These are the 2 trials GERN is in at the present time. Pretty skinny pipeline.
  • CHOFF: $GERN - continuing break out from yesterday (biotech)
  • stairm01: $GERN Wow, what a run. NP
  • stairm01: $GERN a biopharmaceutical up 30% this morning after a pullback on Friday making it look like a good point to sell. No position. Would be hard to hold, but nice to own.

  • moneyHoHo: @TRICIA Very interesting on $GERN. Thanks for bringing it to everyone's attention. Amazing how these biotech's are continually left at the curb for roadkill and then rise from the ashes and fly.
  • TRICIA: $GERN ↑ is a monster .. wonder if it files shelf AH ... or is it being bought??? i will sell at 3:55 ...happy with my profits..
  • hwyflier: @TRICIA $GERN Sitting on this for what seems like a painful eternity...........finally.
  • tjv821: help have a question had bot $CYTR and $GERN sold cytr ah and lost extra 3.00 sold gern minus .37c both trades lost me a couple of thousand dollars. Is there a way to know which way a stock will go up/down. Gern I would have sold ist thing this am but still stinging from cytr money left on table so I held on thinking it might lie cytr yesterday
  • hwyflier: $GERN : Huge pop, sell. $TITXF : Huge drop, add?
  • dave11: @SierraJW Thanks for the follow up on this, I did notice the $BTXWS in my account today. These are the most unusual unintended holdings which I have ever owned. The $ASTY and $BTXWS wich I never actually bought are all profit since the $GERN shares that I had were sold at a profit. I appreciate your remarks on this.
  • dave11: @SierraJW thanks for this info, I had read this but was not so sure what it all meant. So it looks like the trade in $GERN awhile back which has resulted a profit on the sale of $GERN, plus the $ASTY shares plus the $BTX warrants. I think I will just hold my small position in $ASTY to see how it does and hold the warrants as an education in warrants.
  • dave11: $ASTY up over 40% today, after going up 20% yesterday, so glad I held these shares from the $GERN spinoff. Its a very small position so I am holding on.
  • dave11: $ASTY, Asterias Biotherapeutics up over 22%. I am holding a very small position which I ended up with because of the spinoff from $GERN. I sold all of my $GERN but held onto $ASTY. I know very little about this stock but I like todays action.
  • dave11: $GERN $ASTYV noticed that I had a new ticker $ASTYV in my account today, looking into this a bit more after calling my broker it is the estimated number of shares of $ASTYV that I am due from $GERN. This estimated ratio equates to one whole share of Asterias Series A common stock for every approximately 24 shares of Geron common stock.
  • dmgrevas: $GERN - looks like its entering a squeeze. Small cap bios up today.
  • dkoran: $GERN- positive news from FDA on drug. I use to own this stock and bailed . Any thoughts from the biotech pros on the board on this company's prospects.Looks like it has quite a gap to fill if good news is really good news.
  • hwyflier: @dkoran $GERN : Next big bang coming. Really tight 5 minute just below the 200d daily.
  • dkoran: @hwyflier $GERN- little confused by your post. Bang which way?

  • dkoran: GERN- been out the last 2 days. Saw where @Dan had a piece on $GERN on @Fitz Bitz. I do not subscribe to that service. What was his take? Put a stop at 4.60 area.Been holding a long time in a ira account. looking to add .
  • Miki: $CLF - broke out like @DAN predicted in the weekend video in an up market -actually there are too many who do that today -trying to be selective -new long plays: $CYTX ( anticipating breakout above 5$ like other Stem Cell biomeds $GERN ATHX maybe CSII), $MDR, $CSCO, and $CRL for a 59 (now overextended to 159 min - $CRL issued this morning a good report but lowered expectations for Q3 i am up only 2.75% think i will bailout soon.....) anybody else on CRL???
  • taylor: $GERN @dkoran - I've been holding a little of this stock forever, too. Just this morning, I sold Dec 18 2010 7.5 Calls at $0.50 against my stock position. Hoping it gets there for a nice gain by year-end.

  • live2ride112: Covered Call/Put question Hi all, I'm in a precarious "aw crap" moment with $GERN trade turned, missed my stop and now I'm wondering how I can protect my position with selling a covered call - I'm a newbie at #options - this would be my first position - any advice - suggestions would be greatly appreciated
  • Forexpro: Re: $GERN Hi, @Live2ride112, Depends a bit on your cost basis; the Dec 7.5 GQDLU calls can be written at the moment for about 0.70, which might help. One standard stock repair mechanism is to add a call to each 100 shares that you're long, and then sell two calls at a higher strike against it, e.g. long 100 shares, buy a Dec 5 call for 2.05, sell 2 Dec 7.5 calls for 0.70. Just a thought; our colleagues may have other ideas and views. Hope this helps; all the best.
  • CallaLilly: Biotechs - I'm kind of hating them today. It's a hard trade and keeps on being humbling, for me anyway. I think they require a level of patience that I may lack. It's kind of all hope until they become Big. $GERN, $ONTY, ALTH, $DNDN, NEPH (up one penny, pretty little thing), $AGEN, ANDS, $CYTR, $DSCO ... I wonder if $IBB would be smoother? GERN's end of July earnings were as awful as most of the biotechs - Geron reports Q2 $EPS (23c) vs. consensus of (19c) Reports Q2 revenue $183K vs. consensus of $800K. Watching $JAZZ and $CRY today. I just can't get it right here with them. But when one of the respected writers does a serious article, it moves the stock (of course, event days too). I can't see how to do this other than throw money at red or black.
  • JimMac: Callalilly-I've been following the Biotechs and have a watchlist including:ONTY,$ICAD,AGEN,$JAZZ,INO,$GERN,NVAX,$EXEL,VPHM,XTNT,OREX.I am currently holding $JAZZ which seems to be forming a flag.I was stopped out of $NVAX and whipsawed out of $INO as these seem to make quick runs up and then retreat. @JIM
  • karkn: COAL - many stocks up 4-7% again in premarket. $DRYS - @Dan's 3 Stocks video from this morning covers this one $GERN - @Dan's 3 stocks video covered this and it broke out (9%) of its pennant in premarket http://us.rd.yahoo.com/finance/external/video/ts/SIG=12esv6vhp/*http%3A//www.thestreet.com/_yahoo/story/10496308/1/3-stocks-i-saw-on-tv.html?cm_ven=YAHOOV&cm_cat=FREE&cm_ite=NA
  • strickland411: $GERN - also mentioned by on $FM last night by Guy Adami
  • Junior: @Dan $GERN I owe this one totally to you. Traded it according to the opening gap strategy in conjunction with the integer grind! Working out nicely... thanks again. this is such a great strategy!
  • Bob: @Dan been digging into $GERN last night after $FM and again today after you mention it. I'm coming up with pretty much the same as PNaj that it's one that has not participated and could be worth watching. As I'm not finding supporting fundamentals, I wonder how much of that buck twenty move today was $FM related? No position either way but the stock has been in the upper half the BB's and is up today...no question about that but no conviction on buy or hold.
  • brynmark: STEM..nice call on that double frank..of course i got stopped out..(happily at the time)..@ 2.09 still digging for plays in the stem cell industry..of course $GERN may be interesting..not sure if we get a pullback or not..
  • franknzupan: I got scared after looking at the chart yesterday. LOL I put in an order for $2.48 last night and it was filled early this morning. I would not touch it right now. I have heard of $GERN, but don't know much about it. Gotta be careful with the micro-CAP stocks. I have been burnt before. I usually stay away from any thing less that $5.00 PS How high do you think $STEM will go? Frank in Oil City, PA PS Just closed my position in OIH.
