As well informed as you are, you would better be able to handle that trade manually and get out prior to the dip. I bet market orders have cost me $50,000 over the years.

I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground.
I said, young man, 'cause you're in a new town
There's no need to be unhappy.

Careful with those. If its a bad day and the sell order is triggered, who knows what the market price will be when your trade is executed. Stocks typically go down a lot faster than they go up.

I thought about using a trailing stop on a stock that I have that has had a nice runup, but when I found out that THAT becomes a market order, I declined that too. All it would take is one blip and you're out at what could be substantially less than you intended. Naaaaaaah Cramer is absolutely right on this.. limit orders ONLY.

I hate em too, and that is why I use them very sparingly. Nine times out of ten, I prefer to ride the dip.

Our EPS last year put the stock in the 30 dollar range. Wall Street is finally starting to realize that airlines have found a way to make money no matter what fuel is. As soon as they realize they will make money with labor costs rising the stock will take off.
Our current price as well as the entire sectors, is basically indicative of a no confidence vote. When the companies prove that they actually can turn a profit quarter over quarter, the stock will react in kind.

I love this stuff. I wish we had an investment club here...
Do your own due diligence, this is not a recommendation to purchase or sell any security or option you may or may not own...
