It’s been so long since I have posted and today was pretty much a non-productive [...]

Day’s Gain: $39.80
Again, not much activity in terms of the porfolio side. I did buy more Radiant when it was at $9.69 and now it is at $9.80. Now I have 1000 shares that are bought on avg at $9.865 so I’m still down on this stock. This stock really trades around this range and [...]

Day’s Gain: $20.23
Radiant was the big loser today (losing close to 2.3%). I would buy more actually at these levels (currently trading at $9.69 per share) but I’m on a business trip and is pretty much unavailable to trade.

1. Always limit your losses!
Never be stubborn and try [...]

Day’s Gain: $470.50
NYSE (NYX) and AMD was the main cause while every other stock was very slow.
For NYSE, the Euronext merger is a serious driver for the stock. Once it got approved, the stock was like catching fire, going up 15% in two days. Of course, this was very profitable for me. I have 50 [...]

I’m back to a sane state after I cooled off a little bit during the weekend and today’s nice run. I actually went up even though the market went down. A couple of things happened.
I wanted to buy Marvell (MRVL) but I was scared that it has gone up too high when it [...]
