  • champ: $TNA $BLDR....it looks like this could be the zig-zag #U-turn that Investors have been waiting for and the Set-up probably is,.... a #little-more-positive from FOMC on Wednesday. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ and the only problem today was....the Markets #opened way-up....... .....and that was great for us swingers, however it is always hard-to-add, in a Market that is working... but is zigzagging higher...because it is real hard, to find a spot to add...or to get in. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  • champ: @champ $TNA $BLDR #U-turn.....a #little-more-positive...News.......
  • woodman: @Mikev200 $HOV - I have some $DFH and $BLDR, but totally missed HOV.
  • Mikev200: @woodman $HOV $DFH $BLDR I have some $PHM. I forgot about $HOV. I have alerts coming from stuff I have not looked at in a year or longer. I saw $BLDR today was looking at calls but didn't like, not many trade on this one.

  • barbjim12: @Scott. $BLDR is one of my larger positions. Unfortunately I have held during the recent downturn and am below water now. I am inclined to hold rather than take such a loss. Any advice would be appreciated.
  • scottrades: @barbjim12 $BLDR Put a hard stop at 142. You need to respect the 50 Day MA and the 200 Day MA on Long positions without a cushion. Below bad, above good. I'd consider selling at breakeven to give your mind a reset and decide if you fundamentally like the company enough to try again.
  • rmacron: @barbjim12 $BLDR It looks to me that with the exception of a brief two day respite in May, this stock has been stair-stepping down since April, and is now well below the 20, 50 and 200 day moving averages. This current “step” has been sideways all of June. Not knowing your entry or loss situation is, do you want to take a chance of further losses based on the chart activity, or do you cut your losses and live to trade another day? As always, you can always buy it back when the chart gives you an indication that the stock’s fortunes have changed, or you can just move on.
  • champ: $BLDR...at $172, Day-6 now off of that #low-U-turn, which was at $159...... ....I'm in this stock because I want to have some exposer in this sector.... ....and this is a great company, with good management...... ....plus they have huge stock #Buy-Backs....... ........Watch for Entry, investment position......... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  • champ: $BLDR is now at $168, had the turn at $165.40, the bottom is in....and I posted that I took profits yesterdays before they reported, at $200.77. I'm expecting zig-zags off of $165.40...... >>>Watch for Entry and I'm watching for a place to add-on. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  • vitoB: @champ $BLDR agree building position around 167 and change
  • champ: @vitoB $BLDR....running flat now, between $167.00 and $168.70, Investors are now #Testing-Testing......and their Buy-backs should start to Kick-in.....
  • vitoB: @champ $BLDR #Testing-Testing another building material player on a bad day to report...$JELD windows company closing Cali and Wisconsin plants, watchin for entry in similar size starter at 14.41
  • champ: $BLDR...now at $162.50.....took another leg down, shorts at work.
  • billyzeke: @champ $BLDR It looks like it might be headed down to the the 200day.
  • champ: Had another turn...$BLDR...now at $163.00 and LOD was at $160.33.
  • vitoB: @champ $BLDR went to town on this in the 161 zone
  • champ: @vitoB $BLDR.......Exactly and Yes that was the play and Now we will see what happens now.... and also in the next few days.
  • champ: $BLDR...HOD and they will be reporting in the morning...and the guess is, they are going to Beat and Raise, see their earnings chart....... because they always seem to bounce after and I will be a swinger....... .....plus they already have huge #Buy-backs in place.......... and many say, that they are the Best stock in this sector. ..........Watch for Entry........... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  • champ: $BLDR...I'm out....because I decided to take profits....

  • champ: $BLDR, working nicely...and is holding-up and this is on a #Pre-earnings move, they will be reporting Tuesday morning...and the Odds are they are going to Beat and Raise....and they also have large Buy-backs working. ...I have a swing and I'm trying to find a place to add.
  • champ: $BLD...HOD...#Top-Build is an installer and a specially distributer of insulation and related building material products... in the construction industry..... ....was Upgraded again...to $482., at Jefferies.... and their 52 week high was $425.... #Day-1 on this new Market-turn....Bounce Day...... Check out this Stock...... >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> I also like $BLDR.
  • champ: $BLDR $BLD...these are both real nice profit makers and it sure looks like they are not going to stop, giving us #profits.
  • champ: $BLDR $BLD $HD $LOW $NAIL....Powell sure triggered a lot of Break-outs.
  • debeers: @champ $BLDR $BLD $HD $LOW $NAIL - Yup you are right on----- i like one in the contractor domain and IMO $HD or $BLDR fine here and one in the Homebuilding sector which shouild, IMO, be $TOL
  • debeers: @champ $BLDR $BLD $HD $LOW $NAIL -Actually the hyome sales figures of up over 9% triggered the upside. Spring is selling and buying season closely followed by summer when the kis get out of school. A lot of folks whose kids are grown and left home--also want to downsize a bit.
  • debeers: $BLDR/$$GPS/$META/$MMM/$$MSFT/$NVDA/$PG/$TOL/----Longs All.
  • scottrades: My notes: $SPY Still in trend $QQQ Nice bounce off the 21 EMA $IWM Above the 8EMA $DXY No follow through $GLD Good volume into the close $GDX Bounce near the 8EMA $SMH In trend $XHB Holding the 8EMA $IBIT Wear a Seatbelt. $AMD Watch today’s low $NVDA Not done yet $SMCI Still in trend $ON Basing $META Support at the 21 EMA $ANET Support at the 50 Day $BLDR Support at the 50 Day $TOL IN trend $PHM Support at the 21 EMA $DHI Alert at 157.25 $TDG Flag $RCL Looks about to leave the port.

  • scottrades: ...
    Homebuilders $XHB are still holding up fine. Watch $PHM $TOL $KBH $LEN and others. $OC and $BLDR are in consolidation.

  • champ: ...
    The guess is, this company is going to surprise on their earnings report, for example, just like both $BLDR and $OC did.
    ~~~~~Watch for Entry...........

  • woodman: @champ $BECN $OC $BLDR #Beacon-Roofing-Supply #read #Pre-earnings #sell-everything #Construction-Contractors - $BLDR reports 8/2 bmo.
  • champ: @woodman $BECN $OC $BLDR #Beacon-Roofing-Supply #read #Pre-earnings #sell-everything #Construction-Contractors.......Exactly, so you need to Check-out what they said on their last ER-report......you and I have been following them for a long time....and as you know they are always in play, on their earning reports. LOL
  • woodman: @champ $BECN $OC $BLDR #Beacon-Roofing-Supply #read #Pre-earnings #sell-everything #Construction-Contractors - Yes.
  • Docoof: Some Building and Construction Products/Materials stocks that made new 1-yr highs on Friday: $CRH $SUM $BECN $DOOR $EXP $BLD $FBIN $MAS $FBIN $VMC $MLM $IBP $OC $TGLS $CNM $AMWD $AZEK $USLM $NX $SSD $LPX $BCC $PGTI $MWA $ATKR $BLDR $BXC (Many noted by champ, woodman, et al.)
  • woodman: Building materials (@champ has posted frequently on some of them), like related homebuilders, also doing quite well. Top 5 YTD: $BLDR $JELD $CX $TGLS $PGTI.
  • champ: @woodman $BLDR $JELD $CX $TGLS $PGTI .....Great sectors....these are also really working ...$EXP....and $MLM $VMC.......... $SUM......and I'm #new in $SUM, check out this company, with all of their U.S locations....see their Location-map on their Website, they own a lot of companies...and I think that this stock is going to workout really well.
  • champ: $BLDR $BLD.....both are HOD....
  • champ: @champ $BLDR $BLD...more BreakOuts.....
  • champ: $BLDR....still working and is at another new ATHigh.
  • champ: $BLDR is still doing that Happy zig-zag dance, up the Wall of Worry.
  • champ: $BLDR $ABNB $PBF $DK.....
  • champ: $BLDR....BreakOut....into the unknown.
  • rnrdallas1939: @champ $BLDR Seems strange that $LOW $HD are not following along this is their big season. Even the $ITB $XHB is moving up Maybe I"m somewhat jaded because here in TX they seem not to be able to build fast enough. It seems every day a new development.
  • phgruver: @rnrdallas1939 $BLDR $LOW $HD $ITB $XHB $BLDR had a huge earnings beat, just a few days ago, and is still riding the surge. $HD reports on May 16, and $LOW reports on May 23. If they do as well as $BLDR, they'll take off too.
  • champ: @rnrdallas1939 $BLDR $LOW $HD $ITB $XHB...my #guess is. they are waiting for the CPI and PPI reports...and $BLDR is still moving off of earnings, and maybe they could be real nice specs before those reports, however as of Now NP's.
  • rnrdallas1939: @champ $BLDR $LOW $HD $ITB $XHB #guess Hope your both right. But $BUDR has been lower left to the upper right for almost a year and $HDD $LLOW has been up down and all around. You would think there would be some correlation. But the market has its own way of thinking. And yeah I know Hope is not a trading method LTH
  • champ: @rnrdallas1939 $BLDR $LOW $HD $ITB $XHB $BUDR $HDD $LLOW #guess....$HD and $LOW.. both have huge products lines and they are buying at wholesale, to resale, plus with all of their huge Retail space, in every town and $BLDR doesn't have any of that type of risk or very little, compared to both of those huge Box store retailers. LOL
  • rnrdallas1939: $BLDR is one breakout that is still working. Finish the week strong ?
  • rnrdallas1939: $BLDR still building off earnings
  • champ: @rnrdallas1939 $BLDR....I might get back-in at some point.....
  • champ: @champ $BLDR....BLDR.....
  • Mikev200: $BLDR nice earnings beat guides lower
  • champ: $SMCI....strong, earnings movers, $BLDR $CZR...been posting......
  • woodman: @scottrades $LEN $DHI $MHO - $BLDR up 12% on earnings report.
  • rnrdallas1939: $BLDR is still holding after an earnings pop. 12%%2B
  • champ: @rnrdallas1939 $BLDR....and I'm also still holding, into that #FOMC report.
  • rnrdallas1939: @rnrdallas1939 $BLDR don't know what the %2B came from 12% plus
  • champ: @rnrdallas1939 $BLDR... the plus sign = %2B....
  • rnrdallas1939: @champ $BLDR #FOMC I think we both are LTH. I don't think#FOMC will mean much to $BLDR. Next quarter will be more challenging.
  • champ: @rnrdallas1939 $BLDR #FOMC #FOMC.....could be......but it just doesn't matter what we might Think.....because it #only matters what the Market and other Investors Think.... .....and thats what's going on Today....with #Interest-Rate-Sensitive stocks....... These are just a few others....$GNRC $OC and there are many more....... ............the Bulls vs the Bears is in play today.............
  • rnrdallas1939: @champ $BLDR $GNRC $OC #FOMC #FOMC #only #Interest-Rate-Sensitive I agree with every word. $GNRC has been a real heartbreaker if you try to use just logic.
  • champ: @rnrdallas1939 $BLDR $GNRC $OC #FOMC #FOMC #only #Interest-Rate-Sensitive......could be....but logic, in the Markets is called.... having #Market-smarts.....and that = Patiences, Entry-timings and #Working-capital, always need extra $$$, to add-onto.. your Stock position or could say to work-with, for #each of your Stock-target .... because No-one is prefect on #Entry-timings........ ......plus #can't work properly, with-out Working-capital, to Work-with..... and thats the biggest issue, for most all Traders and Investors......... ~~~~~~ So the Key is....the Bottom line is......... only work, with what you have, to work with and #Money-management is the Name of this Game, so have to Slowly grow, Working-capitol. LOL
  • Mikev200: $BLDR add
  • rnrdallas1939: @Mikev200 $BLDR Nice turnaround today. LTH
