You're welcome guys.
As I said, you're welcome guys.
I couldn't bare to lose the cash anymore so I closed the position.. so this is the time when you start to need to worry about a downward trend again.

I'm looking at SBUX, AEP, and JNJ

I'd add to that list: MRK, XOM, HSY, DIS. I'd probably even be crazy enough to buy some GE to ACD.

I bought some SBUX. This at this price its a steal. I will wait on AEP. I think utilities are in for some more pain.

Been adding for the last 4 trading days. Today added additional shares of ALL and WBA to my portfolios. Last week added DIA, SPY, C, AMZN, AXP, KO, MSFT, PG, WM, CAH, MCD, AAPL, JNJ, XOM, CVX. Also added AEE last week (2/6/18) at $52.45, and sold this AM at $54.70. Will sell one partial position of MSFT purchased last week at $86.63 after the x-div date (2/14/18) at a target sell price of >$90/share.
Holding all stock positons long term and trading periodically. Swing trading and trend trading as well as long term holdings of primarily Dividend Achievers and Dividend Aristocrats.

Oh well, next time ;-)

Ronn, I limit my single stock exposure (full position) to 3% also. That's what I'm comfortable with also.
