  • indigo1948: @champ $NUGT $XOP $XOM $KMI $PAA - holding $KMI, $XOM, $DRIP, $WMB, $GDX and $ASPN - very nice move on $ASPN. Are you still holding $CMC?
  • champ: @indigo1948 $NUGT $XOP $XOM $KMI $PAA $DRIP $WMB $GDX $ASPN......Yes I'm still holding $CMC....and I'm watching others like $NUE and $STLD.
  • indigo1948: @champ $NUGT $XOP $XOM $KMI $PAA $DRIP $WMB $GDX $ASPN $CMC $NUE $STLD - thanks - a lot of watching right now-all the best.
  • DAN: Note on $WMB -- we were stopped out, but that doesn't mean that the stock is not working. It has held the 50-day moving average and remains on trend. Lots of overhead resistance and the company reports on 8/5...but don't lose track of this stock.

  • StockMarketMentor: Adding $WMB to the ATI List Entry: 43.54 Stop: 42.25 The stock is at all-time highs and breaking out within an uptrend. I think this is gonna run for a while!
  • billyzeke: @StockMarketMentor $WMB Just a heads up, it looks like you entered the cost basis on WMB as 42.54 instead of 43.54 on the ATI list. I just noticed it and thought, that's a pretty tight stop when I was checking the list. :)

  • steve71: @halar $WMB $ET Energy Transfer as well Williams buyers getting ready for 12/8 ex-div date.

  • mariner: @DAN So what is the likely impact on the market price of pipeline companies? Long $WMB, $ENB, & $EPD
  • DAN: @mariner $WMB $ENB $EPD I don't know whether it will impact them at all. Charts are brutal and there's no indication that the market is even thinking about them. Business is bad for oil/gas pipeline companies. Nothing being built over here, that's for sure.
  • mariner: @DAN $WMB $ENB $EPD Thanks for getting back to me on this!
  • champ: @SusanW $PAA $KMI #News #guided #Yield-Stock......Could also watch ..$ET $EPD $WMB...I have NP's in these, however they more or less trade the same way, could park all of the pipeline companies next to each other...to see how traders re-act, daily. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  • Roadrunner: My electric company: " Earlier this year, we were forced to implement a rate increase after the price of natural gas used to generate power increased by 60 percent in 2021. Since January 1, the price of natural gas has increased by an additional 160 percent. The U.S. is now shipping record amounts of liquefied natural gas to Europe to help wean the continent off of Russian energy. This has resulted in a massive increase in demand for natural gas which has led to large price increases." They are proposing increasing our rates again by 18% and delaying capital projects so they don't have to raise rates by 50% like other electric companies in the area. $SRE $TELL $MRO $CTRA $WMB $PAA $KMI and others may be winners out of this - surely not the consumer.
  • shoredriver: @Roadrunner $SRE $TELL $MRO $CTRA $WMB $PAA $KMI ....Just the beginning..........
  • slp20: @Roadrunner $SRE $TELL $MRO $CTRA $WMB $PAA $KMI When Freeport pipeline comes back online gas will spike because they will be allowed to export LNG to Europe. Right now the commodity is being held here which caused the price to drop in June.

    $WMB -- Good squeeze. 6.8% yield.

  • Ajax4Hire: @Amisure $T $CVX $WMB $MO $VZ $ABBV $ABR $NLY $AGNC $VICI $APAM From the office of President Not Sure: $T- AT&T, filling gap from Mon,Nov9th,2020, look out belowwwwww; $VZ - Verizon; gap from Wed,Feb17th,2021, same. I am seriously considering switching to $TMUS(from $VZ). $TMUS is sooooo hungry for customers, offering very enticing deals. I note that $T Dividend APR is 7.4%(double every 9yrs,9months) and yet still not attractive(APR 7.1173%=double every 10years) $NLY - Annaly, I own a metric-ton of $NLY from @Dan 2020-08Aug recommendation. It is one of our portfolio's shining stars, much thanks @Dan :)
  • DAN: @Ajax4Hire $T $CVX $WMB $MO $VZ $ABBV $ABR $NLY $AGNC $VICI $APAM $TMUS Thanks Ajax. $NLY has been a very easy trade, hasn't it. One transaction: "Buy." You get paid for doing nothing -- better than a job with Cal Trans.

  • indigo1948: $APA, $EOG, $SLB, $OXY, $DVN, $OKE, $WMB, $MPC,$HES, $VLO - oil stock sitting right at heir pivot with al charts looking closely similar. Should be interesting with OPEC making a decision soon on output restrictions for coming year.

  • grcjr: @wijimmy $ETJ $WMB #YIELDHOGS #YIELDHOGS - $ETJ is one I hold. $WMB is new to me. Currently paying 8.2% yield. History of increasing the dividend over two plus years. No reductions, including this year. This is an MLP. If this is your kind of holding, I'd look at $KMI as well, although the chart is not as pretty, KMI is an MLP. KMP is not. I do not have any MLPs.
  • Bridget: $WMB high base squeeze on the hourly. Strarting to break out of its trading range on the daily.

  • Forexpro: @sierramp Hi, Sierramp, For what little's it's worth, I have small, starter-esque holdings in $NS and $OGE, but neither seem to me to be at anything like a decent entry. One to perhaps keep an eye on is $WMB. I've known them in years past, and they have had their challenges, on and off. Still, it offers a decent yield, and has generally been performing well, of late. Not here, but an alert around, say, 26.25 might work, just to put it on your radar if it pulls back. Sorry not to be of more help; others here will hopefully have some views. Best of luck!

  • champ: @bsafriet $UWT $DK $XOM $KMI $WPZ --- I sold $KMI on 7/27 and I sold 1/2 of $WMB before earnings and the other 1/2 on 8/6. I will be getting back in at some point. I'm repositioning and doing a little house cleaning, in all of my accounts, after earnings and going into the last few months of summer.

    17. $WMB – does it have a good chart pattern for a buy, in light of the dividend and growth potential?
  • champ: #Energy-Positions ----- I'm back-in all of my positions in the sector....and I'm swinging both of these ETF's... $GUSH $UWT and these Oil companies $FANG $PXD $CXO $PE $PBR and $XOM/Refiner and both of these Tankers $TK and $NAT (been holding both of these Tankers off the lows)...and these 3 #Frackers.. $FRAC $PUMP and $LBRT...along with $BHGE. and all the #Sand-Suppliers.....$SLCA $HCLP $CRR $EMES $SOI $SND and $EXP ...along these 2 Pipeline companies...$KMI and $WMB (been holding both of these pipelines)...and I will be adding to all, at some point. I took profits on all on the high turn..off of the news that dropped the sector, I rotated out...but started adding back on Friday 6/22 after the #OPEC-News....I rotated back-in.

Am I correct that $UWT is going to have more swings up and down because it's based on volatility?
  • champ: @bsnceo $GUSH $UWT $FANG $PXD $CXO $PE $PBR $XOM $TK $NAT $FRAC $PUMP $LBRT $BHGE $SLCA $HCLP $CRR $EMES $SOI $SND $EXP $KMI $WMB #Energy-Positions #Frackers #Sand-Suppliers #OPEC-News ---- Thats ture but only when Oil is zig-zagging....but honestly I still don't have it completely figure-out. However, that is how it is suppose to work, just like you said but it is always hard to figure out why #investors-do-what-they-do....but for me....it is more about #Uncertainty, in the Oil markets..and with are President, tweeting all the time...this works for me. If you look at the AH's volume on both $Gush and $UWT ...$UWT is the clear volume leader, in the AH's because there is #Uncertainty...about the ##EIA Oil report in the morning....maybe that helps you and others... to better understand this ETF a little more...Good Luck.
  • bRobert: $ETP $MMP $WMB .$EPE Good entry. Pipelines are cash cows long term.
  • champ: $WPZ @ $38.40 --- I posted on this pipeline company a couple of days ago....and now the News is ....it looks like... $WMB is acquiring the company this morning....in a all stock transaction....they will be paying a 6.4% premium, based on the closing price on May,16.. I'm still holding my position and this should be positive....but they wanted to grab all the stock, before it when back-up to $44. The bottom line is.... the share-holders could get screwed, in this transaction....however, $WMB might be the big winner, have to see how it all plays out.
  • Sher: @champ $WPZ $WMB - That's interesting - $WPZ was a spin-off of $WMB a few years back...

  • bsafriet: @champ $AM $OKE $KMI $TRP $WMB. $WPZ In a post last Friday, you said that you were holding some of the pipelines. I sold most except for $TRP and $WMB in the June sell-off. Would like to re-enter the stronger ones. They are for the boss's retirement account. My choices are $AM $OKE $TRP $WMB $WPZ. Thinking about $KMI, but not sure they are ready for prime time yet, even with the dividend hikes they've promised. I would appreciate your assessment of the above and any suggestions of others I should consider. I missed the recovery and have been hesitant to re-enter at current levels and uncertainty surrounding the oil/gas markets. Txs in advance for the kindness of your reply.
  • Bridget: I'm taking off a little early today. Notes: $SPY still in a channel, but in a downtrending channel. Same with $QQQ. Solar still holding up well. $TAN, $JKS $XME still slowly moving higher $XOP seems to have bottomed. Now it's basing $PSX is performing well. $IYT - higher highs, $AAL moving Pipelines are on a tear $AM $WPZ $WMB $OKS $OKE $ETE, possibly due to changes the administration is making regarding drilling rules. $NKE - if you aren't already in you're chasing $TTWO - at a good buy point $CC - breaking the downtrend $MU - sold off after earnings, will this now follow the rest of the semis $VFC - higher highs. Inverse head and shoulders on the weekly. Neckline around $58 $JD - double top $ETSY - flagging $BGCP - back up to its prior high Breakouts: $TWX $GNC $SSW $AXGN $TRUE
  • issues: speaker Ryan announcing the new healthcare bill to replace Obamacare... how will affect stocks? Will we see healthcare stocks like UNH drop? The discussion remains... I read someone's post to buy $WMB if it goes up over $30. So I attempted to put in a buy LIMIT order for $30.5 but instead it bought the 1/2 position today. I'm not sure what I did but I should have used a conditional order, I guess, and not a limit order??? I doubt anyone else have ever done that, right?
  • DAN: @issues $WMB Mistakes happen. First, it wouldn't be a "limit order." It would be a stop order. "Buy" order with a stop at your entry price. Hang tough. Also, make sure you know WHY you are buying other than someone's post. Doesn't matter if it's my post, or any other member. Everyone is wrong at times. Many times. Make sure that a post is just your starting point...not your action point. 8-)
  • issues: @DAN $WMB Thanks Dan! I appreciate your teaching!
  • DAN: @issues $WMB I'm glad you are here, issues. Have a great evening! Everybody makes that mistake in setting a buy stop. Easy to mark it a limit order when it's meant to be a stop order. It happens once...maybe twice. And then we learn. LOL.
  • wdcobler: @DAN $WMB Wow, thanks for discussing this Dan. I hate to sound ignorant, but I've been buying with limit orders since I started trading in 2011. Maybe more out there. Thanks Dan
  • skellig: @issues $WMB I don't understand how the trade got filled when I'm showing the high for today is $29.93
  • Henry: @skellig $WMB He said "So I attempted to put in a buy LIMIT order for $30.5 " He should have put in a Buy Stop. He bought the stock for less than his limit price, which is what a limit order does. A buy or sell stop doesn't become live until the stock trades at or through the stop price. Then it becomes a market order.
  • skellig: @Henry $WMB Thanks. Got confused with the buy stop and buy limit.
