Hey gang...I am doing fine in the marketplace. I have 15 stocks right now to keep track of. Some are long term holds, some are IPO's and others are trading stocks. I am enjoying myself each and everyday!
Yesterday was tough...I bought a momo stock...only to watch it go down after I bought it (what else is new) couldn't get it sold at my limit price, time was not on my side...I knew it would be down even more today. And frankly I was worried. Had a BIG chunk of money in it. So last night put in a limit order to sell 1/16 below what I bought it for. I was hoping and praying it would sell...since I would be asleep during the first 3 hours of market open today. Well, I get up this morning to find ETRADE is DOWN...oh no....have I lost several thousand instead of several hundred??? I fret, ponder, wonder. I look up the current quote on this bow wow...
The stock is down...way down...way down!!! Finally, I get into ETRADE and I find that my stock sold for 1/32 MORE than my limit price! There is a god and he smiled on me today! I am grateful...Now I just need to receive AR's on about 6 IPO's between WIT and Etrade! Since I have LOTS of cash on hand to pay for them!!
