Just a quick afternoon update.
On the new positions, we only got JSE this morning. Although it hasn't jumped up today, it is in fact just testing the support of the previous high, R136-72. It has actually not traded close to that, and is a very good sign. We missed BAT again (up 17% in 3 days now
) , but maybe tomorrow we can get it at the right price !!!
On the running shares PPC (long) and HAR (short) did very well today, both moving more than 5%. HAR was closed at R18-10, and it is trading even lower. I like the exit now, as this was the juicy part of the trend
, and the rest is more risky and not as fruitful. HAR trend was 15% in 6 trading days.
ACL and KIO was closed as well, after they both looked as if they broke the trend. And then both of them dived like Falcons today!!!!
If I could just sometimes listen to myself, when I say, I should trust the triggers more.
Anyway, the portfolio is doing very well, even without BAT on board.
It's up around R32 800 for the first 2 days of the week (R26 000 for the day), and it looks exiting for the week to come.
The ALSI is also testing support today, and it's a very good time to get into long positions.
I will update later this evening.
Happy Trading
