  • TeslaCoil: $VECO What does everyone think about $VECO above $31.09
  • woodman: $VECO nice move. Reports amc.
  • woodman: $VECO set up for a good move .... if earnings are good - 2/16 amc.
  • Motorman: @woodman #Bullard Irresponsible to speak during market hours. Wonder how much skin he has in the game. Alternatively, could be buying opportunity. $VECO 20d and 50d straddle.
  • woodman: @Motorman $VECO #Bullard - well, I hope members of Congress got the tip so they could sell/short.
  • Motorman: @woodman $VECO #Bullard Held up pretty well with eh drop. 2/16 ER NP yet.
  • bwcarnation1: @Motorman $VECO #Bullard He probably went short before making his comments....make that his wife or close family member!
  • Motorman: @Woodman $VECO trying too get over the 50D and 50 W just below.
  • woodman: @Motorman $VECO - thanks for the reminder! My alert expired. Need to reevaluate.
  • Motorman: @woodman $VECO Thinking of starting a position. ER 2/16
  • woodman: $VECO - speaking of semis, this seems to be gearing up again too.
  • bRobert: @woodman $VECO semi interesting
  • woodman: $VECO - If the market were stronger, I'd say with fair conviction this is where to buy it. This has been an absolute gift-giver for me, but not too sure I want to risk it here.
  • woodman: $VECO working on phase 3 move.
  • woodman: $VECO phase 3 move working well.
  • Aloha05: @woodman $VECO Great observation. With you at $29. Thanks for sharing.
  • GDave: @woodman $VECO Nice trade, thanks
  • bRobert: @woodman $VECO $35 target unchanged
  • woodman: @bRobert $VECO - Thx. I remember your prior guidance. I sold the top of the pop (1/3 and 1/4)and bought back this morning. This has been a text book trade (thus far) with the breakout, pullback and now move back up (knock on, er, wood).
  • woodman: @Aloha05 @GDave $VECO - best of luck. :-)
  • woodman: $VECO - I'm out.
  • woodman: $VECO - Sold this one on the nice breakout pop the other day. Now looking with more interest again as a potential buyback on this phase 2 pullback.
  • woodman: $VECO - started selling yesterday near the highs. Sold the rest this morning. Will keep watch for phase 3 following this pullback.
  • woodman: $VECO breakout expansion
  • bRobert: @woodman $VECO $35 Nice pick
  • Pokersmith: @woodman $VECO wow...fantastic
  • woodman: @bRobert $VECO - thanks, mi amigo. Hopefully it has some legs. I saw your reply a few days ago about short interest.
  • scottto_2: @woodman $VECO - Thanks for this one! My penny $29 calls are up massive %. #shortsqueeze ? 3.7M shares short, 15 days to cover.
  • bobbybwana: Whomever mentioned $VECO a couple of weeks ago, thank you. I’m up nicely.
  • woodman: @bobbybwana $VECO :-)
  • bobbybwana: @woodman $VECO Thanks @woodman
  • woodman: @bobbybwana $VECO - My pleasure. $KLIC was another one I mentioned, and suggested to wait for a retest (pullback) because it had just moved so much, but I lost sight of it and didn't take my advice. That said, and despite the strong move today making it hard to buy now, the weekly off the 50w is still inviting. Could see this testing ath level around 73-75 in the shorter term.
  • bobbybwana: @woodman $VECO $KLIC I’ll keep an eye out, thanks.
  • woodman: @bobbybwana $VECO $KLIC - sold some $VECO.
  • woodman: $VECO continuation of breakout from 6 week consolidation on top of old longer (8 month) consolidation. Not sure of its legs here, but still riding it from lower within the shorter consolidation
  • bRobert: @woodman $VECO LOve it $35 target
  • woodman: @bRobert $VECO - I had sold some two days ago, but bought it back and more yesterday.
  • woodman: $VECO testing top of 6 week flag.
  • bRobert: @woodman $VECO 12d to cover Short squeeze potential kicker $35+
  • scottto_2: $VECO - Threw a few dollars at some cheap options. Low risk, high reward if squeeze gets going....
  • bRobert: @scottto_2 $VECO Feb $25 s
  • scottto_2: @bRobert $VECO - Even those were too much for my ashtray change. Jan 28 and 29. $1 elevation and they double....
  • scottrades: ...
    $VECO had great volume yesterday.
    $UCTT is coming up to previous resistance just under 61.

    This week is a great time of year to reflect and review your actions and where you are today. It’s also a great opportunity to develop your growth pla ...
  • indigo1948: @scottrades $GOOGL $AAPL $MSFT $TSLA $SMH $AMAT $AMD $DIOD $VECO $UCTT - good morning Scott - take a look at $APPS - strong move this morning based on partnership with Google.
  • vitoB: Sczry profit wick or second bite at the apple on $VECO. I'm in rhrn
  • woodman: $VECO another example of mine that I've been reducing significantly or selling completely as stocks hit around obvious resistance lines. In the case of $VECO, it hit essentially to the penny - $28.00 - and reversed (resistance at 11/3 high of 27.99). Not giving back $$ on these reversing pops. Can always buy it back.
  • bRobert: @woodman $VECO Lovely weekly $35 targets $30 interim
  • woodman: $VECO continuing to move off successful retest of breakout. Weekly.
  • woodman: $VECO - Broke out in early Nov., pulled back to breakout area, now moving back up. Weekly flag.
  • woodman: $VECO - Broke out on 11/3 and has, since then, drifted/pulled back to the breakout level, including a gap fill, which also coincides with the 50d off of which it bounced today. No prediction on what it does tomorrow, but it's a low risk entry here with a stop below today's low.
  • woodman: #SemiconductorEquipment and Materials of interest (again, look at daily and weekly charts): $VECO - nice consolidation along top of 8.5 month range consolidation following small breakout and pullback to top of old range. Headed for $34 resistance area on the weekly. $KLIC moving well, htb now on day 2, look for retest. $ACLS breakout from consolidation/weekly flag. Htb, look for retest.
  • woodman: $VECO - one I posted in my #SemiconductorsEquipment and Materials list. Started a position. Weekly flag on top of old consolidation range resistance area, now having pulled back to test that breakout. Looking at $34 as a shorter term target, hopefully to test ath ~$44 after that if all goes well.
  • woodman: $VECO finally moving out of consolidation.
  • woodman: $VECO frisky.
  • woodman: $VECO - I've been sitting on this. It's starting to move up again.
  • woodman: $VECO - Bought this last week. Has some room to get back up to recent high about 15% higher.
  • woodman: @issues $MU $XLNX $PLAB $COHU $ACMR $FORM $ENTG $TER $KLAC $VECO $KRTX - $PLAB was on my radar, but I decided not to buy it before earnings. It blasted off on earnings without me. Np. I looked at $ENTG and $FORM some time ago too, but also np in either one. I've had $TER and $TSM for a while. Great charts this year. Still in them. I also have $KLAC $IPHI and $AMAT (and $VECO as of last week).
  • woodman: $VECO moving higher out of some consolidation at the 50 day. Room to move back to recent high in November.
  • spmeyers: @woodman $VECO I like it!
  • issues: @Robert1965 $MU $XLNX Semis are industry group (IBD) 2: In the group are these: $PLAB $COHU $ACMR $FORM $ENTG $TER $KLAC $VECO. We are holding COHU FORM TER and ENTG. Comparing PLAB to ACMR, it looks like PLAB jumped up very quickly while ACMR was more gradual. Therefore I would prefer ACMR but no position yet. Thanks for whoever suggested $KRTX. We bought a starter just seconds before close and are up $20 in seconds! I am excited to see when this achieves "lift off." We put in the order to buy $VECO at Mon open b/c of the huge vol today.
  • woodman: $VECO continues next phase of move after a very brief drifting type of pullback. Long .
  • coldevinc: @woodman $VECO kinda cupy handly
  • woodman: $VECO - bought this back last week and added this morning. It's been ripping higher since the December Market plunge. Over the last couple weeks it took a deserved rest. Looks like it's moving higher again now.
  • woodman: $VECO - $SMH $SOXX $SOXL - similar pattern.
  • woodman: $VECO - bought this back today.
  • woodman: $VECO has been killer. I sold into earnings as a precaution, and reloaded last week. 8dEMA has been great support for the last two months.
  • woodman: $VECO - Flag at 200 day. 8dEMA support. Reported earnings and after a plunge, immediately came back (same day).
  • woodman: $VECO - long this one. It's been a great run already, but I think it is setting up for continuation with this flag/rest at the 200 day.
  • Sluggo: @woodman $VECO Butt up against the 200d, but I will watch. Thanks!
  • woodman: @Sluggo $VECO - I would say coiling at the 200. It closed above it today and higher than yesterday. Equally as important is that the 8dEMA is holding wonderfully as it has virtually the entire way up. The only failure wasn't a failure at all; on earnings day, it momentarily plummeted down to the middle BB area, only to regain everything and more to close green.
  • Sluggo: @woodman $VECO Still, it hasn't risen above the 200D since last June. I don't know at this point. Waiting for confirmation.
  • Hans_Schultz1: 59 minute trade watch: scan this morning showed a small handful of candidates. Most trade pretty thin. $VECO and $SABR would have worked but had to be bought in the first couple of minutes and I wasn’t that quick. I’m running this scan on TD Ameritrade and it takes about 5 minutes for it to show anything. I’m looking for a better way to run a scan.
  • woodman: $VECO - reported yesterday. Helluva drop and recovery today.
  • woodman: $VECO - if you've followed this or bought it, it reports after the bell today. I sold mine.
  • woodman: #Semiconductors - still working. I had been holding $SOXL (which I sold this morning) and continue to hold individual tickers: $MU $VECO $STM $UCTT $LASR. Most of them continue to run.
  • bRobert: @woodman $SOXL $MU $VECO $STM $UCTT $LASR #Semiconductors Those chips can be a bit greasy. Make sure you wash your hands No double dipping.
  • woodman: #Semiconductor equipment and materials still going: $LRCX $AMAT $UCTT $VECO $ACLS $NANO, for example.
  • woodman: $LRCX $AMAT $UCTT $VECO $ACLS $NANO #Semiconductor - some report soon, so keep that in mind.
  • coldevinc: @woodman $LRCX $AMAT $UCTT $VECO $ACLS $NANO #Semiconductor $VECO 2-11 and UCTT 2 - 20
  • woodman: $VECO flag
  • woodman: Tidying up some of my posts.... Here are some at interesting levels; each needs a little push: $NBEV $WLL $CDXS $AMRN $LASR $WCG $VECO $NVAX.
  • woodman: #Semiconductor equipment/material stocks too: $LRCX $AMAT $UCTT $NANO $VECO $ACLS
  • woodman: #Semiconductor equipment and material - $UCTT $NANO $VECO $IPGP. I may have mentioned $ACLS last week, but it's too far gone now if I did.
  • bRobert: $VECO Patient spec holding stock. Continues to print higher highs/lows. Earnings 11/2 will move this.
  • bRobert: $VECO Patient long term trade on this chip equipment/tool supplier . Target 1 $24
  • bRobert: $VECO Long term spec perky
  • bRobert: $VECO Out of rehab. Nice move from $19. Little breakout and retest. Technicals improving. Trading above 50d. ADX green and avove 20. . Patient . Selectively adding as this turnaround story unfolds. Target 1 . $24
  • bRobert: $VECO spec with high potential. High growth Patience. required Will add when direction confirmed Trading above 50d ADX >20
  • bRobert: @Junior1 $SWIR $VECO is an orphan I adopted. Similar flush. Huge upside. I have a long term time frame. BTW both Renaissance tech holdings. One thing to consider is that with huge gut wrenching flushes, most of the old tenants have moved, thrown in the towel. . New group of happy bargain hunters with a long term view.. The old owners with loses is what makes up the resistance. There are technical hurdles, but with an improving story, the ride up can be faster than you think. Just employ good risk management, honor stops.
  • bRobert: $VECO higher low. Watching for higher high. Patient longer term hold project. Trigger >22 Target 1 $25
  • bRobert: $VECO Dark horse in electronics/chip manufacturing tools. Mentioned last week
  • bRobert: $VECO nice counter trend move
  • bRobert: $VECO Bottom fishing. High growth play.
  • bRobert: $VECO Dip pre earnings to 200d. Strong earnings/revenue growth High short interest. holding long calls
  • bRobert: $VECO Continues to see buying on pullbacks. Great weekly . If breakout above 34+ . Long term target $50
  • bRobert: $Veco Looking to add to long calls. Tremendous revenue/earnings growth. Cheap valuation. Nice Weekly chart
  • bRobert: $AL $AER. $w. $veco $nus Breakout AL. Will add prn. Added to w veco. Starter position. Nus. .
