This mornings trades.

See side bar for results.

I waited for the whole number break of $57 and shorted 300 at $56.98
Two of three price targets hit. Last 1/3 I was away from the desk and placed a close stop.





Tried to catch a turn at the 1/2 dollar level. Opened short at .48
stop hit. small loss



                                                            Freeport-McMoRan Inc
Again tried to catch the fall though of the 1/2 dollar level. I did not keep my stop close enough.

 My stop should have been .52 at the most.


This last trade was an example of holding on to old unprofitable ways.
Bad Trade!

Thursday Morning Trading Wells Fargo & Co

One of this mornings call out in the Java Pit was Wells Fargo & Co (WFC) short.

Anatomy of the trade.

  1. Stock below 5 min 200MA (so I looked to short)
  2. Waited with a stop limit short order at 58.19/58.18 (.20 3rd strongest price level)
  3. Trade opened and posted my BTC order at 58.02 (.00 strongest price level)
  4. Profitable trade
 
 
 
2ND GO AT WFC
Perfect entry - Great targets.
Profitable trade
 
 
 
Now a look at NOT following the RULES
Feb 14
trade
 
Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.(AMD) I had a standing order to short at .19 never hit.
So I started to trade between levels and covered for losses twice.
 
Had I waited for AMD to come up to the .50 level as taught, and shorted at .48/.49 I would have entered correctly and hit my profit targets below.

#whisperoftheday2-8-17

Starting over with some good training

I made the decision to start a new trading blog. A new day and a new way. I believe I was led though divine intervention to the stock trading room of The Stock Whisperer.

For discloser I've paid for a 12 month membership.

The purpose of my new blog will be to show my progress over this next year. If you are to look at the Profitly board on the side bar all trades from the "F" Ford Motor Company on are call outs in the morning briefing, or trades that I am using her teachings to find.

This morning call was GDX bullish > $25.50

I entered first trade above the .50 level at .62.

Should have waited for the pullback to the .50 level so that my stop would have been at .46 and a loss smaller then what it turned out to be. I also could have waited to enter at the .80 level above with a stop lower at .74

 
First trade (-) with my stop still to far away.
 
The rule is .04 stop loss.
 
Second trade I waited and when back in at .51.
She hung out at the .61 level for a long time and trade closed for (-) at .46
 
Recap: Should have taken what she was giving at the time.
