Hey Guys,
The market is still showing strength. It wouldn't surprise me to see more flashes of volatility, but the last week has given us a lot of signs of market strength.
My stock position for DRI reached its time limit this morning, so I manually closed it. What I do is I set up a market sell order before the market opens, and that way it automatically gets filled right at the opening bell. The second video on this page gives an example that shows how I do it.
My DRI position sold for 182.46, which gave me a partial profit on the position and gets my week started out with a win.
There haven't been any new trades yet today. In fact, at this point, I don't have a single trade open in either of my accounts. This is not typical, but it's also not unexpected. Every year, there are some periods with very light trading activity. I just stick to the plan and follow in lock step with the backtested approach, and sometimes that means not taking any trades. I see the watch list filling up, so the pipeline is growing.
If you have any questions or feedback, I'd love to hear from you.
