i look for liquidity.. which wdry really does not have.. i looked and saw it bumbling towards its all time high..around 24 and said.. it was not a good short there..
and of course time agreed with me{too bad it doesn't always}
there are two ways to make money in the stock market..{legally}
one is to do everything the hard way.. the other is luck.. i don't like luck.. it usually runs to someone else before i am done with it..
it wasn't a good short at 24.. it wasn't a great short at 31.. so i initiated a small position..
i would not want to have been 5k short{$150k} even though it performed nicely... because it was too risky and way to difficult to drop that many shares..
i think i had 900 share all added up.. i have a piddly 25 shares that got left out of a partial gtc.. and since it was only a small portion of my profits..
i am keeping it short..
i don't know why..
it is the smallest number of shares i have ever had..
although on time i got a day fill of ten shares.. cost me a buck a share commission.. i was po'd..
i traded it a few times too.. ended up with it~ a ten dollar move earns me $250 or cost me $250.. i could care less..
anyway.. will get back at ya later...
am building up momentum on the pages.
