Stock Trading Journal Update 6/23/12


My losses are still very big, while my gains are still very small. I would succeed on a lot of the stock picks I trade, but fail on a few picks but when I fail I fail big. Meaning one of my losses are bigger than 5 of my successful trades.  I think it is because of my fear of the stock losing money. I tend to sell my stocks right when I see a gain, but I tend to hold on to stocks when I lose money.

Stock Trading- Example Of Patience


 For the Last 5 days I have been waiting for this Stock to break even to gain on its price.

On 6/18/12 I Shorted:

Stock Name: BV (Bazaarvoice Inc)
Entry Price 18.84

The Next Day (6/19/12) the stock ended at: 19.25
The Price went up by 0.41 cents

This went patience and knowledge is a really important. But I reviewed the stock chart and the indicators and from my analysis I decided to hold on to the stock.

The following day 6/20/12 the stock ended at: 19.80
I did the same thing; I check my stock chart and my indicators and decided I would hold.

For the next two stock trading days, the stock started to come back down.

6/21/12 stock closed at: 19.43
6/22/12 stock closed at: 19.14
I am going to continue holding on to this stock. The price isn't where I would i like the price to be:

Stock Trading Journal UpDate 6/21/12


I am doing better in my stock trading. I know the pattern and can anticipate what the stock is going to do most of the time because I study stock pattern so much. I still do not have my timing all the way down. I would sell the stock too early or too late. A lot of the time fear of losing money keeps me from getting the maximum profit from my trading. Sometimes I get frustrated because the stocks try to trick me. The price would go in the opposite direction after I enter my trade. I guess that is what the stock market is, it is its own boss.

Maximum Profit Stock Trading Test For 6/18/12 (Update)

I am still trading the two stocks (BV and OSIR) from 2 days ago. The daily stochastic are pointing downward on both charts. i think it is going to take a while before the stocks profit.

Maximum Profit Stock Trading For: 6/19/12

Stock Name: CAMP (Calamp Corp)
Action: Short
Entry Price: 7.74   Today's Closing Price: 7.97

I considering selling this stock (CAMP)  tomorrow morning for a lost. The stock looks like the price is going to drop a little bit more. I don’t think I will be holding this stock long term because the stochastic reading isn’t clear of  the direction I want the stock to go.
