About me My name is Darik. I really know nothing about stocks and trading. I run a used custom truck and SUV lot in California. I DO however have an interest in it, and thought this would be fun. Got any tips for me? I could use it! haha, I just made a bunch of purchases, and have no real good idea as to why. Should I be praying about now?

    I just hope it keeps bouncing our way for a change. Seems like lately I get a bounce up and then an even bigger bounce down. LOL

    Thanks! I'm hoping our short positions in PDO don't backfire tomorrow like mine did for me today.

    Thanks for all the comments,  yeah I did have a tough week.  I figure if I just short everything, I just can't lose!  hehe.   Well, truthfully I just stacked my account with lots of shorts mostly in the homebuilders and mtg. banks.  The big profits may be gone, but I'm just trying to get back over the top.

    I hope your trades prosper as well

    Darik
