  • geebo: $CHEF breaking out
  • DAN: @javlorenzo Hi javlorenzo. $CHEF -- Long term requires fundamentals. As I see it, the earnings, sales and margins are all improving, but not accelerating. Growth rate in earnings is 6%. I think there are better places for your money. Short term -- stock is pretty extended and would likely be pulling back or at least stalling here. $CAKE -- fundamentals aren't great here either. I have the same take on it as I do CHEF. Short term extended...Long term, probably not the best place for my dough. Hope this helps. Dan

  • woodman: $CHEF - not that I have a high level of trust for anything, I noticed this has held horizontal support (Oct. low) which coincides with the 200 day.

    $CHEF – building the right side of a base…but still has a lot of work to do.
  • bigbartabs: Pullbacks... if you have been waiting for pullbacks to buy something... you might want to look at $TLRY $GVA $FEYE $DATA $CRON $CHEF These are from the list of stocks on the right of the forum. FWIW...
  • woodman: $CHEF continues to work, getting harder to buy.
  • gmj: $CHEF nice move wrkng
  • woodman: Some Stocks: $DLTR - weekly/monthly chart $CHEF - bought this on Friday. Turned out to be a big bullish engulfing. BBs still wide but looks like it could plod higher. $M - continues higher $LFVN - sideways consolidation just under the 50 day. Earnings are out of the way. $ESPR - en fuego $DSW - nice bounce off the 200day/200week. Right shoulder? $INSP - poised for a move if it reports good numbers (today amc).
  • DAN: $CHEF -- another stock to watch. This was very good to me (and hopefully you) in September. It's starting to re-set after a good earnings report. This is a low volume stock, so it's under the radar of most traders. But you can see how the volume has picked up in October.
  • woodman: @DAN $CHEF - Ha, we posted at same time. :-)
  • DAN: @woodman $CHEF LOL. I know. I was just reading your post, woodman! ;-) I like your other stocks that you mentioned. Slowly building the list.......a few tickers at a time.
  • shoredriver: @DAN $CHEF Lots of room to run into earnings on12/31.....
  • DAN: @shoredriver $CHEF Agree.
  • Lou: @DAN $CHEF - relatively small cap. Not enough trading volume for my taste.
  • woodman: @DAN $CHEF - "Slowly building the list" - same here. I started building a "What's Working Now" watchlist a couple weeks ago as I sat in cash, and started deploying some of that cash about a week ago. I'm not a fast/day trader. I have a lengthier time frame than that, and I'm more strategic, I guess. A lot of Consumer Defensive/Consumer Cyclical stocks have found their way onto my list. Not exclusively, but a strong presence.
  • petros06: @woodman $DLTR $CHEF $M $LFVN $ESPR $DSW $INSP I have a new watch list in my account. I titled it, Woodman :)
  • captron: @petros06 $DLTR $CHEF $M $LFVN $ESPR $DSW $INSP Was happy to see $M on his list since I picked it up last week when all the blood was in the street.
  • woodman: @petros06 $DLTR $CHEF $M $LFVN $ESPR $DSW $INSP - ;-)
  • woodman: $CHEF - Reversal/bullish engulfing. Bigly.
  • issues: @DAN $DNR I took a loss on $DNR and won't be penalized with wash sale. So I prefer $CVE. Chart for $CHEF look enticing and maybe delicious. err steady she goes.
  • Bob G: @issues $DNR $CVE $CHEF I like CHEF right here. 50dma and 200dma are moving up. Price is cruising up the 50dma and a good support line at $32 looks to be holding through a lot of the volatility. Price convergence looks to be coming together around $33 so the next couple of days should be worth watching. IMO
  • kus123: $CHEF Insider selling, VC sold 15 millions of shares! Is this really matters? https://finviz.com/insidertrading.ashx?oc=1525965&tc=7
  • PhilHarmonic: @kus123 $CHEF I think you misread the numbers or misinterpreted the numbers.
  • Bob G: @kus123 $CHEF VC liquidated $17.5m in shares. Probably needs to buy the kid a new car.

  • ATX17: @sierramp There is a good video posted on stops. These refresher videos are so helpful to bring you back to the right state of mind. Why are you buying this stock now? Is it at the idea buy point? If not make sure to set the stop accordingly if the move is continuing and you want to participate. $CHEF is the example @Dan used. I have been trading around in $CLF and it has a similar move up, as it moves up keep moving the stop up and adding to the position. When the stock tells you it is not working get out and take profits.
  • gwenzee: @issues $MZOR $MDT $CHEF I do hope you read up on the buyout. Many times it is a stock deal. You receive x number of shares of the acquiring company when deal goes through. I would never knee-jerk a buy or sell until due diligence is done.
  • issues: Thank you Gwen telling me that $MZOR is being bought out by MDT. I sold my shares of MZOR and will look at buying $MDT. Looks like Dan sold too soon on $CHEF. I see it moving up again. I sold half our position in $EW with a stop on the other 1/2. This is an all time high. I kept the $ABMD full position since it has a way to go to get to the all time high. Of course I have a stop in place for 1/2 of it. The stop? 4% below where it is. Go baby go!!
  • issues: @gwenzee $MZOR $MDT $CHEF Thank you Gwen! I would like to make separate decisions on MDT and MZOR. I see MZOR stuck. I am considering a buy on MDT but not at this level. I held $AAL when it went through a merger ( a decade or so ago) and didn't like the way it turned out. It's easier for me to make them separate deals.
  • gwenzee: @issues $MZOR $MDT $CHEF $AAL Also found this info.

    You are hereby notified that Levi & Korsinsky, LLP has commenced an investigation into the fairness of the sale of Mazor Robotics to Medtronic plc (MDT). Under the terms of the transaction, Maz ...
  • shoredriver: @gwenzee $MZOR $MDT $CHEF $AAL $MDT......talk is that they def. stole it @ 58 and change.....my $ still on $ISRG and $TRXC ..... opposite ends of the spectrum.....
  • gwenzee: @shoredriver $MZOR $MDT $CHEF $AAL $ISRG $TRXC Was "talking" with Issues. He was the one who had no idea what was happening with one of his holdings, MZOR. I have no position in any of these. Just trying to give some info to Issues.
  • gilman23smm: @gwenzee $MZOR $MDT $CHEF $AAL $ISRG $TRXC I think it was a steal at $58.50. It was only a 10% premium and well below the recent high of $64, which was only two months ago. The $MZOR Board didn't do shareholders any favors.
  • issues: @gwenzee $MZOR $MDT $CHEF $AAL $ISRG $TRXC And it's greatly appreciated Gwen! Thank you!
  • gwenzee: @gilman23smm $MZOR $MDT $CHEF $AAL $ISRG $TRXC This should be addressed to issues. He is the one who owned the stock.
  • DAN: $CHEF -- if anyone happens to be in CHEF now, it is starting Phase 2 of a squeeze play. I sold half of my position yesterday, and I just sold the remaining shares a couple of minutes ago. The stock has been on a really nice run since the breakout above $30 just a couple of weeks ago and advanced more than 20%. That's not a profit that you should take for granted. The stock is thin. 36.4k shares traded today, so when there is a rush for the exits, it'll get crowded. My suggestion is that you take the profit and be happy with it. "Thank you very much, Mr. Market. May I have another?"
  • indigo1948: @DAN $CHEF - I also got out with a tight stop after such a nice run - take the money and quietly leave the building.
  • rachel: ...
    COTD: $CHEF – Only stock of mine that was working in a big way. Was looking for a reason to sell...but wound up buying more. When a stock stands out on a horrible day, it’s doing so for a reason. Higher lows for 8 consecutive days.

  • shoredriver: @rachel $CHEF $AMZN $SPX $DJI $PLNT $RGNX $VNOM $UNIT $CPRT $PRAH $TRU $ALGN $COL @DAN @GARY.... Rachel: It's been a while since I have said it, and I know others have also...but thanks for the wonderful job you do on these notes .
  • DAN: $CHEF -- I took some profits on CHEF. Four big days in a row, and looking like it's starting Phase 2 today. From $28 to $34 in two weeks is a pretty good move. Gotta sell part of the position into that kind of move.
  • Robert1965: $CHEF up again ATH 33.80 another 4.9%

    $CHEF – doesn’t trade much, but was difficult to buy today. Do NOT start a new position here. We’re in Phase 1. Need to wait for Phase 2 before buying/adding.

  • DAN: $CHEF -- continuing its breakout from a volatility squeeze. Now up at all time high.

  • DAN: ...
    My desired position size is 20% of my account, though that only happens occasionally in this market. Right now, the closest I am to that 20% target is on $ROKU, and I'm only 18.4%. I don't just focus on taking a big position. It's easy to do that ...
  • DAN: @petros06 $CHEF Yes, I think it's too late to buy now. I added some this morning...but would not buy now.
  • DAN: @Robert1965 $CHEF I wouldn't raise the stop now...though it really depends on how long you tend to hold stocks. If you're really just looking at this as a one or two day trade, then sure, raise your stop. I'm going to hold this for a while because I think the stock could go higher. Earnings growth seems pretty steady.
