How does one remove a incorrect reputation point thingy given to someone else on this forum?  :o

eg:  MPC full allocation-500K long.  entry(165K) 2nd tranche(330K)  tight stops are set after 2nd add.

add off the bottom, exit channel previous high re: my last post.  (personally, i have doubts we'll see those lows(25000) unless general mkt weakness drives price down next week..lets wait and see)

 

this type of staggered strategy is employed in 70% of my trades, with very few exceptions - i always bank profit! 

D, when you say staggered strategy you mean your 1/3 of total intended position adding at a time.  Does this not leave you with only 1 or 2/3 positions more often than not?

I opened a MPC position a few weeks ago, and was doing great, should've closed out on Friday but hey (live and learn) so now wondering wherther i should close out my position or perhaps add to it.

 

Seems its a good idea to add! Thank you

no problem!  look to see if 26200 holds, if that fails and retailers are weak next week i could see revisit of 25000-25500 level.

here's the thing..price could go down to 25000/add another tranche to average out..ride up again till 28000 - this scenario could happen in the next 2/3weeks chances are even sooner.  position sizing is "key" in winning trades :)

Do you think MPC will rebound form revent losses?

Oil price spiking, didn't believe it was totally justified and shouldn't increase that fast

 

Great call on the SOL short

I like your SOL short Yusuf.......also eyed the same but didn't follow through yet.  Agree with oil spike and potential for price decrease again

What makes you think the share is going to head back down?

looking at TRU, is the new trading range low 9100 to 9600 now?  before the recent jump was 8750-9150.  Still in Aspen, missed NPN for the long at low 180000.........VOD short piling up but very small position..........APN still long........patience is the key, am thinking (or is that hoping!)
