The last few years have been great to me, as i was able to clobber the S&P500 many times in returns. But of course, you can't make a living trading the markets if you don't make great great returns. I'll try to give my readers trades that i think will make them money. However, you need to have money management skills, in order not to lose everything on a greedy or stupid trade. I may or may not already be in the trades i recommend. I may or may not trade the stocks i recommend. Due diligence is required on your part and the usual disclaimer that i am not responsible for your losses always apply. I have no affiliations with any broker/dealer and all posts are for educational purposes only.

SYNM technicals: Longer term trade.

Ok guys, listen up!When SYNM broke $7, it broke out of the MULTIYEAR DOWNTREND LINE that started in the mid or later 2001!!!

Currently we have a decent support at $12-12.5, but very good suport at $11, because $11 is where the 10-20-50-day Moving Average currently stand (all three averages sittin near $11!). It would be very difficult to even touch $10. That $10 barrier is very hard to break from here, especially when Legg Mason paid $10 for 7 million shares.

I would like to see it break $14.50 (which it did not on Friday), but more preferably $15. Once we break $15, we are headed to $20-25!We are hoping that the current momentum in the stock as well as the crude oil prices will take SYNM over $20 sooner than later. I suspect we will see $25 by the end of this year at the very latest.

I believe that Legg Mason picked up shares of SYNM at $10 because when the price dropped from $10 to $9 it was on low volume, indicating the absolute bottom was at $9. They could have bought it at $9, but most funds only buy stocks above $10. I tell ya, these guys are good.

Obviously the big boys are looking at the fundamentals 2-3 years out, or else Legg Mason wouldn't be buying 7 million shares at $10. Heck, there are so many profitable oil stocks out there like NGAS, GEOI, PZE and TMR that they could have nibbled on! But no! They almost 15% of SYNM!!

We need jet engine fuel (lol...isn't that what SYNM could make?? lol) to make SYNM really fly to my initial target of $20-25 rather quickly, and that would be a continued rise in crude oil prices! Hey, more press releases from management certainly won't hurt!

I know that oil is hot right NOW! Hotter than the year 2000. Was it hotter than 1997?

PQUE is another doubler by end of this year, imo.

If you guys are buying and holding oil stocks, be sure to buy some tech stocks to counteract the possible crude oil correction.
