Post #42: Sold some, bought some

SOLD

I sold $MAC today at +40% gain.

I also sold my $STI at a very minimal profit (+2%??). This one has been consolidating for some time now, maybe it needs to go back to my watch-list for now.

BOUGHT

I bought some $ROCK today at P2.00. My stop will be placed at just below P1.90.

Also, bought a very small position on $PXP when it showed a sell-off late in the afternoon. Stop at below P10. Note: This is a speculation play with very small amount invested. 


Current portfolio:

$MEG
$EW
$ROCK
$PXP

Post #41: $PRMX out, bought $EW

Quick updates:

Hit my trailing stop in $PRMX when it went below P7.00 today. I took out a small profit. This will stay in my watchlist for now.

Moved my funds to $EW as it broke P34 resistance. Expecting it to fill the gap just below P34 but not lower than it, or stop loss will be initiated.

Post #40: Sold $PGOLD, bought $TUGS

Update: November 10, 2017 - Sold $TUGS, its volatility doesn't fit my trading style. 

After two months of holding $PGOLD, I decided it is too slow of a stock and sold it for only around 5% gain. I just realized that maybe I waited too long for it to do something. That's my problem, I'm too patient in trading.

After that, half of the funds from the  $PGOLD sale, I decided to move into $TUGS. It seem to be starting a good trend. As always, this being a speculative play, I'll make sure to watch my stop loss level closely.

I'm also watching $CPM especially if it breaks above P1.70 convincingly.

I realized that if I want to make it past 100% YTD returns before the year ends, I need to let go of the slow stocks in my portfolio and find a high flyer. Let's keep this simple, cut the losers and the laggers short and let the winners run until they ran out of steam.

Cheers.
