    Today I ve witnessed again the beauty of this method, GROW exceded DU very soon, MACD was positive but stoch was below 80.... If it wasn't for the stoch I would have bought at 20.44 basically at the high of the day, where the price just stalled and reversed sharply triggering a theorical 2% stop loss... (Take a look at the 1 min chart and you 'll see what i mean)

    Nice :D

    Now it will surely go to 22 hehe... dang! :mad:

  2. Got my GROW order filled at 19.84 but became nervous and sold at 21.03 without really looking closely at the volume. Could have held on I suppose but that move was almost vertical and I started to feel that consolidation was inevitable. Might buy on a pullback as has already surpassed FRV.

    Suss

  6. I also track the IBD 100 as well as the S&P 500 (for option trades). Here is a screen shot of the IBD 100 table.

  8. Sold JRJC 38.82 +5.1% :( should have sold at the open, would have made another 3%. Lesson learned (again) to sell right away after a 18% runup.

    Sold ICOC 14.76 +3.2%

    Bought GROW also 20.82. Should have dumped JRJC right away and got into this earlier when it was up around 6%, which was when I noticed it, would be up 5% by now......
