I didn't manage to catch the exact low but I did pick up 1000 shares of SOXL around 125 among some other stuff. Still holding. I'm pretty happy about it.
That bottom was pretty easy. I wonder what kind of surprises we will see in future. The dif is clear now tho, the shake off after the bounce - in mid caps & some small caps, is more brutal, than it was in 08. My bet - got to get rid, somehow, of em RH stimulus folks, that got good at TA, yet has little to none of the skill in FA and psychology, thus got afraid , when things went down 30%~ again.
This morning on cnbc cramer is saying how insane these moves are, saying he's never seen anything like that, he keeps repeating it over and over....just think 6 stocks now make up 50% of the NDX 100. Nasdaq just went red
From March 21 : So I called for a recovery just more gradual. I actually did go heavily long on the 23rd in TSX related plays. 11200 seemed far too low and it was. Bounced 11.8% the very next day. Sold my index related positions when the SPX hit 2820.
BULLSHIT! So you are saying a pandemic-induced crash of 35% in ONE MONTH and picking that bottom was easy? I guess you have been trading since 1918 or something.
Certain stocks and the TSX were easier to call; US indexes no really obvious signs it was a bottom as far as I remember. 11200 on the TSX was it's lowest level since February 2010.
Acc size was 89k. Spare me of its a sim bs, since i won't share my real acc in public. It wasn't easy. It was the easiest thing. Personal attack. Good luck O.
