Summary for June Another down month, but very minimal which is nice, considering the much larger 9% down i was earlier in the month, but made some money back on AM (gap play) and grmn (stopped out). Not too much to say except that its going to be hard for me in July if the market continues down as 100% of my account is long right now, which I plan to fix over time to put in a few shorts just to even out risk. Number of trades this month: 10 Winners --> 4 (40%) Losers --> 6 (60%) Total realized gains : 451.00 (5.8% ) Total realized losses: -705.54(9.08% ) NET PnL $-254.54 (3.27%)
thought I'd start posting trades in real time. L BYD @ 9.48 ------------ I'll post July results on wednesday.
Summary for July July was a great month. More upward movement in the dow really helped most my long positions, which I didn't expect. Big (Big lots) was really the only actual trade I had that was a loser at about 3%. I was stopped the day before the rally. AAPL, and FSLR made the bulk of my winnings for this month. Number of trades: 18 Winners --> 13 ( 72%) Losers --> 5 (27%) NET PnL: 366.26 (about 4.7%)
Summary for August 2009 Over all I had more winners than losers, however I had one trade going long on TM that knocked my PL down a good bit. I ended the month up 2.76%.. not great, but not bad. Im always happy to be green. trades: 8 winners: 7 losers: 1 NET pnl: + 245.43 (2.76%)
