Today's tape is forcing me to take a "very cautious approach to trading"......
This means " buy the dips and sell the rallies "...for now.....
I am NOT SURE but it "feels like a topping action may be developing in the markets".....
Chinese stocks have gone "too far for a long long time.....a less exposure is prudent"
In Chinese stocks I will stick with "quality & strong stocks with solid future...which is lagging in RUNUP"
I did few more trades today...sort of cleanup & repositioning in what I know & feel comfortable with...
Sold all XFML and took a $1 per share loss...it is stuck in the mud...going nowhere..and also low quality..imho
Bought EGO my cost $6.85...need exposure in GOLD as a defensive approach.....
Bought NMX four times today my cost $128.60.....my second largest position just below RIMM.
My portfolio now :
RIMM,NMX,VMW,LDK,SINA & EGO......
All the big names were down big today.....
GOOG down $17+...
BIDU down $8+....
RIMM down $4+...
VMW down $4+...
NMX down $3+
ICE down $3+
WYNN down $4+
LVS down $4+
NYX down $1++
GRMN down $1++
WFR down $1+
On the positive side all the Chinese petroleum companies...were UP $15+++
BRCM UP on new chip
SIRF UP on heavy volume
All Gold were UP......
Make sure you do FA & TA on all your holdings...it is time to go for "higher quality & leaders not also ran"
I alway's pay attention to tape......today the tape was negative across the board....decliners were leading by substantial margin.....down volume also had substantial lead.....
Please continue to do your own due diligence & ensure your comfort level...as markets may be more challenging than before......more so a stock picker market...with technical strength..know the support & resistance and play those perimeters.....
Good luck for tuesday.
BLOG does not give buy or sell.
