There are some clarifications to be made to my list...MWD is actually MS (short)...PMI is PM (long) and not sure where DCR came on, it sems to be one of the short oil bs things, but as i'm short the USO is not part of my short list. GS is my one short not working at the moment, but the rest are doing what they are supposed to be doing...TSO sems to only go lower, but it is cheap enough to warrant holding on to, for awhile, but I reserve the right to sell...The rest of my longs are performing very well in a down market, not really sure how stocks list is doing (don't really care either), but I think i'm hanging in there.
It's too early to make any assumptions. Obviously, if the market breaches the March lows and keeps dropping then the stock_trad3r index will suffer but I doubt that will happen.
who made assumptions? You are the so called "investor", but for whatever reason, you feel the need to post NUMEROUS times a day at how well your "picks" are doing...The simple fact is your entire portfolio is 2 names...Thats the story, the last time I only had 2 names on my pad was....well never. My list is what it is, I have a posistion in each, and in more than most some sort of options hedge, that is how money is made with minimal risk...Heres an assumption, your long only momo list is 10x more risky than mine...Are you making 10x what my picks are....not even close.
Is this going to be like his last index, where anyone following will have to go down 30, 40 maybe even 50% before his index finally outperforms? That is if you survived through that without a margin call that locked you into those losses. Just wondring.
Putting a stop on one of my longs, ELN....It is up about 26% since we started this, so the trader in me likes to keep my profits..Trailing stop goes in @ $32.58, will adjust accordingly as it goes higher....
Even with the market making monthly lows the index is still well into the green. When the market does rebound the index is gonna rocket.
stock_trd3r... tell us *exactly* what your index is composed of and in what proportions and I'll chart the index for you in real time and post an updated chart at the end of the day. For example, 100 shares of aapl, 100 mos, 400 pot, 300 nue, whatever. Just say exactly what portion of which stocks are in the index and we'll chart it. Deal?
The stocks in the index are in the first post. here are the stocks and initial prices: MOS 151 V 78 7/8 BIDU 324 1/2 RIMM 133 1/4 AAPL 182 CLR 70 1/2 PCX 139 1/2 CLF 98 3/4 Each one is equally weighted.
stock, in order for me to compute the index in real-time, as I said I need to know how many shares of each stock. "Equal-weight" indexes are trickier to do for several reasons. Just tell me what # of shares of each stock to use and we'll get it going.
