Tito, thanks for sharing your method. My plan for making money is nothing new. It has elements borrowed from your analysis, Jacobs, Cary, michaels and many others. Rule number one: Minimize the losses ( we will lose money some time, we will make money other times.)

Here is my plan. Amat closed at 56.3 on Friday. 10% drop is about 51, 20% drop is about 45 and 30% drop is about 39. I will start buying at these points with 10% of my capital, 30-40% of my capital and , 100% of my capital, respectively. Each of these purchases will have a 2 point stoploss. Therefore, maximum amount I might lose will be about 6 points. I would still have most of my money. If it starts to rise then my selling points will be 10% with in a day or wait till 20% rise. If stock value goes below 30 % drop then watch like a hawk, buy whenever it is 2 points above the local mimimum. Time is not a factor for my trading.

PS: I have learned to take limited losses gracefully and I am trying to control the greed factor.

To Demonstrate how an AMAT YoYo Play Works: ---

Bought 100 Sh AMAT @ 50

The Drop thus far from 59.50 to 49.25 = -17.23%... May deteriorate to -20% or -30% but this price I got is Good enough. Expect to sell it At least @ 56 when the YoYo goes back up for the Catch. This Yoyo Play usually last for 11 days.
