Howdy all roaches!

POTG (Portage resources) managed to feed both the bulls AND the bears today. I just love a play that offers a little something for everyone, don’t you? The bulls were fed during market open when it was all you could buy at .27 and .28 and the angry and determined bulls came out swinging to take POTG up to a very nice scalp trade high of .359 for GAINS UPWARDS OF 28% in less than an hour! Then the bulls started to lose it a bit during midday trading as early buyers started taking some off the table. 

The bears waited patiently for their time to feed, and they took some very nice servings of POTG at .34-.31. The bulls fought back with some ammo that they had left, but by that time the bears had laid out a trap, and the bulls were caught in a dilemna as profit takers scrambled to take their hard earned gains and ran while the going was good. Can’t say that I blame them.

The bears are banking on POTG trickling back down to around .15, and once they have a stranglehold with weak buying pressure and a lot of profit takers, they just might hit their target and then some. So trade POTG with caution at this point if you are playing, and should POTG break under .29 support things could get ugly really fast for the bulls because the bears can stomp on it very easily at that point in my humble roachy opinion.

POTG however managed to close above that .29 tentative support with flippers trading the volatility and the bulls came back strong during power hour to maintain a close above the support level, so bears watch for a break down of .29, and bulls keep an eye out for that resistance break at .36-40.

LIMA, Peru, Sept. 30, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — Portage Resources Inc., through its wholly owned subsidiary Portage Minerals S.A. (“Portage” or the “Company”) (POTG-OTCQB), has signed a definitive agreement with Nilam Resources S.A. to acquire 55% of the Rocas #2 project “aka” concession Ruth RB code 010516107 in the Chiquian district, Department of Ancash.

This concession consists of 200 hectares and is completely surrounded by approx. 3000 hectares of mining properties controlled by industry giant BHP and is located 36 km west of the great Antimina/Pierina project that has produced upwards of 10 million ounces of gold since 1996.

Portage Resources Inc. President and CEO Paul Luna stated, “Preliminary Independent lab results indicated lower grades of gold and silver but massive volume results. As announced previously, the Rocas #1 shows potential of $2.5 Billion dollars, and Rocas # 2 is smaller in dimensions with indicated potentials of over $1 Billion Dollars in reserves, thus making potential reserves of over $3.5 Billion Dollars in the immediate area. The independent lab figures are compounded with the Pierina 10 million ounce production results, the massive presence of BHP, the Rocas #1 opinions previously announced coupled with the Rocas # 2 acquisition. I am glad to report that negotiations moved quickly after the Rocas #1 acquisition and we were able to secure the Rocas #2 concession as another great addition to the Portage portfolio.”

The terms of this acquisition include a minimum investment of $50,000 USD or 200 meters drilling within 24 months of all permits and registry. Further, the additional 45% of the project can be acquired at any time for $0.675 per each ounce of silver on the total silver resource. Nilam Resources will also receive a one time payment of three and a half million shares of Portage Resources Inc.

Portage Resources Inc. is focused on the exploration and production of precious and base metals in Peru. Portage Resources Inc. plans to recognize, and acquire near-term production mining properties, the Portage Resources Inc. seasoned and experienced Peruvian management team will research, review and prove any reserves for the purpose of production.

Press Release Source: Blockbuster Inc. On Thursday September 29, 2011, 12:48 pm EDT

DALLAS, Sept. 29, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — As previously announced, on April 6, 2011, DISH Network Corporation (“DISH”) agreed to purchase substantially all of Blockbuster Inc.’s assets (the “Asset Sale”). The sale closed on April 26, 2011 and ongoing business operations are being managed by Blockbuster L.L.C. (“New Blockbuster”), which is an affiliate of DISH and a non-debtor entity. As a result of the Asset Sale, BB Liquidating Inc. (f/k/a Blockbuster Inc.) (“Parent”) and its debtor affiliates (collectively, the “Debtors”) have no further business operations nor assets to liquidate. None of the publicly owned stocks issued by Parent prior to the commencement of these chapter 11 cases, including its Class A and Class B common stock, which are currently trading on the OTCQB under the symbols BLOAQ and BLOBQ, respectively, are or will become securities in DISH or New Blockbuster, which are independent, non-debtor companies.

As detailed in Parent’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 12, 2011, the Debtors continue to remind investors of their strong belief that there will be no value for the common stockholders in the bankruptcy liquidation process, even under the most optimistic of scenarios. Stockholders of a company in chapter 11 generally receive value only if all claims of the company’s secured and unsecured creditors are fully satisfied. In these cases, because the Asset Sale proceeds are significantly less than the Debtors’ administrative liabilities, the Debtors anticipate that Parent stockholders will receive no value for their shares of its common and preferred stock. Accordingly, even though the Parent’s common stock continues to be quoted on the Pink Sheets under the symbols BLOAQ and BLOBQ, it has no value and Parent’s stockholders should not view the trading activity of its common stock on the Pink Sheets or any other market or trading platform as being indicative of the value Parent’s stockholders will receive as part of the chapter 11 cases or in connection with any subsequent chapter 7 liquidation. The Debtors are in the process of changing their ticker symbol.

At this time, the Debtors are focused on the efficient and expeditious wind down of their chapter 11 estates. Once the Debtors conclude their wind down efforts, the Debtors anticipate seeking dissolution of their corporate existence and canceling the shares of all common and preferred stock issued by the Parent.

TGIF mi amors!

Today your Senorita is going to feed both the Bulls and da Bears! I’m taking a look at 2 stocks today. I’m going to start out with the one that I feel will be taking the ole crap-a-roo.

The bears might be interested to know that POTG (Portage resources) is looking a bit weak with news out on a Friday, and after a tremendous run from .10 to a high just over .26 POTG might not be able to hold any gains if it cannot break the .28 resistance on the daily charts. If you are looking for a short sell opportunity, I’d say to keep a close eye on the .28 – .30 levels for a potential ride down to about .10-.12. I must stress that with shorting your losses can be infinite, so please be careful because you never know when the bulls will be ready to charge back if you shake the sugar tree a little too hard.

Next up on Senorita’s list, it’s something for the bulls to chew on. I’m watching GEAR (GolfGear International) another precious metals jr. mining play but this one has the potential to go up, not down. There’s rumors flying that GEAR is knee deep in gold and silver that could potentially be worth MILLIONS of duckets. It’s still in it’s infancy stages and is also rumored to be a low floater so it can move rapidly in both directions with even minuscule buying or selling pressure.

Before I get to the support and resistance levels for GEAR, I would like to remind everyone to SIGN UP for the newsletter because we will be coming out with a little surprise that will only be available to registered members of our FREE NO SPAM newsletter.

http://www.stockroach.com/make-profit/ <—— click here for the newsletter.

Support for GEAR comes in at .08, and resistance lies ahead at .18. I personally would look for an entry of about .09-.11 if I were to play.

Those are the 2 stocks that your Senorita has on her watchlist for today and going into next week. Good luck my rrrrrrrroaches, and I’ll see you on Monday.
