Up an Down like a yo-yo!

I didn’t post anything Tuesday, because I was just tired. Tuesday the markets were down a bit and today we got it all back plus some. Tuesday I was also stopped out of SPRD for a loss of $83.83. What kills me here is that I had about $130 profit just a few days back. I hate that!!!! Well was a 3.3% loss in that one transaction but it was only a 3/10’s of a percent loss on my entire portfolio. That is risk management that I can live with. On the plus side, CVI is just a rocket ship that appears to have no stop in it. I’m up 19.9% since February 1. Tonight I will lock in at least 10% of this move.

Yesterday during the downward push, I added A to my portfolio and today I added PXD. I added both positions after earnings report, so we will see what happens.

Just a little TSP news with this post. Guess what the best moving index is so far this week? EFA, International fund! Do you have any monies here?

$0 realized profit today. AVG = $6.99 a day. Personal goal = $50 a day. 12 of 19 trading days for February complete.
