RE: [CANSLIM] What works in this market? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Fri, 15 Aug 2003 08:42:43 -0700 (PDT) From: Tomas Subject: Re: [CANSLIM] RE: BCGI (was: What is your profession?) Katherine, I keep an xls sheet of my porfolio, which has my post analysis (which I do not have access at this point). So, this is a high level overview. I had two very "bad" trade, both of which did a big gap down. One was VRNT (buy 6/4, sold 6/9). Two mistakes for this stock. Put a market order to buy at night, and the price gap up the next morning. So, entry point was extended. Then the stock gap down a few days later. That stock was an 18% lost, and could have been prevented with a stop loss. BCGI did an even bigger gap down (almost 40%). Bought it at BO on 7/8. Had a decent gain at one point. Then the gap down happened during after hour trading, so a stop loss, which I did not used for this stock, would not do any good. APPX was one of my better picks. However, I got scared out due to a minor correction and took profit early. As for the other trades, they were not particularly good picks. Most of them just went sideways or I stop out early since I realized they were not right(did not follow through after BO). FYI, I am currently reading "The Disciplined Trader". Very insightful. tomas - --- Katherine Malm wrote: > Hi Tomas, > > Did you get caught up in the gap down after > breakout?

Instead, I like to see a pullback to the 50DMA or even a bit below the 50DMA, followed by a bounce above the 50DMA. When that happens to a stock with a good primary base, and good CANSLIM numbers, I think the chances are much better than even that the price will resume its interrupted climb. But I do want the market to be showing enthusiasm before climbing on.
