Image
Crown Asia Chemicals Corp Royal $CROWN No More! Total Profit: 0.03% MPB 0.03 in a Month! (Click to enlarge) Ledger Date Transaction Price Size 06/21/2016 Buy, Bounce Play 2.16 168K 07/20/2016 Sell, 1 Month Play 2.23 167K 07/04/2016 Sell, Raised Fund 2.17 1K 1) Bounce Play Thought I've found/bought this one as a "Bounce Play" at the time but ended up as a "Bodega Play" as it crashed further below to P1.80 level after few days - what happened to ILCI? 2) Raised Fund Sold some to raised fund for monthly bills. 3) 1 Month Holding Plan After seeing its slow and painful recovery - thought enough is enough then decided to hold it just for a month - followed it like a Pro Trader - Sold all! Then Ms Market showed she's the Boss - not us! Realisation "Dapat palago nang palago." - Puhunan. Must learn more about c

$COAL - Manang GINA Effect!

Coal Asia Holdings Inc. A Trader must have a G(C)OAL! Total Profit: +28.95% MPB 0.28 in 6-Months! (Click to enlarge) Ledger Date Transaction Price Size 01/2016 Buy, Bodega Play 0.38 240K 06/2016 Sell, Na-GINA Play 0.49 240K 1) Bodega Play This one is part of my Bodega plays which I entered as an Investor for my mining sector hunting at the time. As the name of the play suggest, lack of plan or goal in taking profit became my usual investing habit as the price looked attractive at the time but just noticed today that it actually goes down further below 0.30 before it reversed, consolidated twice then shoot up finally at 0.63 as its peak or the 52-Week High - missed MPB 0.65! as usual. 2) Na-GINA Play GINA LOPEZ Panic Effect Now that I monitor my holdings as a Trader, I became so in tune with the news either via Twitter, FB, BookAKA, blogs and some online news sites - totally in c

$LC - Loss? Cut! (Last Chance?)

Image
Lepanto Consolidated Mining Company Not so $LC to profit here! Total Losses: -0.0039% A month-long journey to break-even! (Click to enlarge) Ledger Logs Plays Positions %P/L 1) Borg, MP 1.06M@0.270, 05/02/2016 -0.071% @0.255, 06/06/2016 2) PCA 390K@0.238, 05/05/2016 0.055% @0.255, 06/06/2016 1) Momentum Play (MP) I thought this one was a " Borg " or a " Momentum " play due to the " GAP-UP " pattern spotted between its prior week's closing price of 0.250 (04/29/2016) and its following Monday's open price of 0.260 (05/02/2016). As a learner these are some of the plays I'm so keen to try out so got in at 0.270 with a bit of volume. Boom! 2) PCA Play Peso-Cost Averaging Then quickly suffered a -4% loss on its day 1 (0.260c) - ILCI what? Tumbled some more to -9% losses on day 2 (0.246c) - iLCi who? And "ipit" further down to -12%

$NOW I'm a TRADER!

NOW Corporation A quick Bounce Play! MPB 0.28 (+27.77% gain) in 4 Days Ledger Date Transaction Price Size 04/11 Buy 1.98 125K 04/15 Sell 2.53 125K This one is a late post but it was the first, the easiest and the fastest ever trade I've managed to execute and close as a "TRADER" through a quick bounce play which I easily recognized and picked up from this cryptic message maybe intended only for ZFT members (and/or avid followers too?!?) at the time. I admit I won't be able to decrypt such a pseudo-trading tweet and play it with confidence if not for ZF through his very useful, helpful and enlightening blog wherein I discovered and learned more about this "Bounce" play along with other easy to follow trading setups or plays that he care to document and share for free to everyone especially those who are still in need of a real, genuine, working and effective trading syst

$GMA7 - MPB Laggard

Image
GMA Network, Inc. Walang "HOLD" Forever! 2010-2016: +7.82% MPB 0.07+ in 6 Years!!! WTF!?!" (Click to enlarge) Ledger Date Transaction Price Size 07/2010 Buy 6.1185 14K 05/2016 Sell 6.65 14K What's so wrong with GMA7? Or rather, what's wrong with you, Puhunan? I really don't know but all I know now is I've lost so much time and value for money on this one. As usual as a newbie Investor in 2008, this is one of the first three stocks along with GLO and JFC that I intended to hold until retirement on an investment rationale of investing in what you know (IIWYK) which I've learned and adapted from the books of "Bagger" of Mr. Peter Lynch - the only strategy I've easily understood and opted to follow at the time. As a newly focused and determined Trader, I finally found the right courage to let it go purely on its chart - that's it! - p

$URC - Bagger Mentality 101

Universal Robina Corporation Bagger Mentality Syndrome - A Self-Case Study 1994-2016 (Highs): +1,240.20% "MPB 12+ in 22 Years!!! WOW!?!" (Click to enlarge) BMS? You might have it too! I must admit I had BMS for ages, so stuck with it and my investing (now trading) system is heavily infected by it! It's not helping with my transitioning into a Trader as my profit mindset is set and fixed on level that is at least a "Bagger" or "MPB" as I call it now. It's so frustrating when it attacks every time a big move appeared in any of my positions but all I do is cancel profit targets, revise quota, ignoring the chart and constantly refreshing the port summary to check its MPB Level - bad trading habits of any aspiring Trader plagued with BMS especially those in a broker with no Trailing Stop feature such as the BPITrade. (Manual Trailing Stop or Plain Greediness?) And it doesn't help when you have no one to talk about it bu

$EW - In Loss, Cut It (ILCI)

East-West Banking Corporation Nalugi! Total Losses: -38.34% "ARRGGH!" :( (Click to enlarge) It's no longer my intention to sell this stock at the time but something strange happened with BPITrade wherein many investors and traders were forced to change password due to a system glitch "kuno" but still unable to login for long hours with our open orders and positions got hijacked and/or executed on that unforgettable day.
