Stopped out of TECK 200 shares @ 37.87.

I golf a few days a week. But that’s coming to an end next week, I’m heading North. So I’ll be down to once a week. Sometimes I trade in the golf course which is a mortal sin.

That’s a fair point and heat of battle might have had something to do with it. also I haven’t been putting in actual stops I probably should. If I do they will show on the charts.

good question… like I said it’s a momo stock and I really disliked the intraday market reversal from up big to down big particularly in Nasdaq. Honestly I thought my stop was at 600 but when i looked at it and saw it was lower I considered today’s market action and that’s how I made my decision

Sticking with my plan. Paleo alto is in that category of technology momo so I had it in a short leash. I think the others are in a pretty strong uptrend. If we get selling on heavy volume again tomorrow in mining and “stuff” stocks like we did today I might cut CF and TECK early as well. MRK...

I did. My sell stops are flexible I said that at the beginning. I didn’t like the way the stock tanked as well as how the market reversed intra day :-)

Sold 10 shares PANW @ 595.67 . Loss - $345.10

Bought 200 MRK @ 86.72. Stop at $81

Thanks Slope. CF can be pretty volatile, so I gave it a lot of room on the stop. But I may be risking a bit more than I want to for now, so I might sell a partial position, shortly, just to take down my risk as % of capital. #WorkInProgress

I’m in Florida for the winter back to NY next week. Down here I never watch the news because every story that’s not about the weather is about a shooting. So it’s not like Florida is a paradise free of crime if you’re comparing it to NY YEAH, yOu can call me woke ;-) I don’t even know why I...

Disney should 1. buy Twitter and turn it into the model for cancel culture 2. pull out of Florida altogether 3. give DeathSantis the finger on the way out the door. There, i said it. Fuck, now I'll probably get run off the forum.

Well played. :)

Spec stock. I own some, just on a lark, at $5.24 average price. Chart looks very good, above 3 upsloping moving averages, broke out today after a consolidation to a higher low . Recent rise has been on higher volume. Probably overextended but might be worth a look just mark it to zero as soon as...

I’m not going to continue this journal, and I’m not going to continue paper trading (unless I want to play with new strategies). I know I’ll get my ass flamed for this, probably rightfully so. But I’m gonna trade real money, I don’t have the patience for paper trading and I just think the...

We’ll that’s a little bit of a freaking insult. It’s ok though, I’ve got a thick skin .

I’m not looking for big returns. If I made enough every year to cover Taxes on my RMDs I’d be happy

because in this kind of market environment , more breakouts turn into fake outs. I’m also coming to the conclusion that I’m more comfortable with that style. Even I. Investing, I was always more of a value and GARP investor than a MOMO investor.
