Did You Trade Today? What and Why?
#3
Sold partial positon of SWK @ $97.40/share this morning. This partial position was purchased 10/14/14 @$82.95/share. Gain for 4 month period = 17% (annualized = 52%).

Utilizing position trading, channel trading, and trend trading strategies.

Trades are guided by market trends, sector trends, gains in a partial position > 10%, stochastics, and MACD. Collecting dividends while waiting for the stars to align.

M$$I

Bought 50 shares of ED @ $62.25. ED is a Dividend Achiever and a Dividend Aristocrat with a current dividend yield of 4.20%, PE = 16.7, stochastics show oversold, MACD (12,26,9) approaching a cross-over. This partial position will be a candidate for a sell at a price > $68.50/share. In the interim, I'm content with the dividend yield of 4.20%.

Current Portfolio Position:
250 shares
Holding period = 7 years
Stock Value = $15,560
Stock Basis = $10,445
Yield on Basis = 6.03%
Stock Appreciation = $1,199
Safety Factor >16 (price/basis/beta)
