For May, I see the market taking a breather.

Er not even close :P

For June, all good momentum comes to an end. Hope to control losses on a sharp pullback. Nasdaq larger caps might be next to run.

Traded a record low buy best month ever. Losers were unprofitable companies. Will not nibble on those any more.

Five straight up months for the portfolio. Amazing.

Lessons Learned and Observation:
- Insider buying and profits is a good sign
- Debt is bad
- Ride the winners. Too many scalped and missed the big moves.
- Bear funds and short traders are in the red for the most part.
- 10 stocks is all I want. I can watch them with ease. I watch Mr. January spend hours trying to juggle 25. Livermore usually had six. Anymore dilutes the performance on average to the index average.
- Listen to people who are hot and post trades. Talk is cheap. Results is all that matter.
- I watched all the TA chart expect the bounce lower.
- Biotechs lead this rally, but the rally started with DELL in February on good news.
- Jabbering about economic indicators may work for DOW stocks, but not much else.
- Trading Volume Speaks words.
- Rev. Shark on Realmoney.com has got the pulse of the money. I don't buy his stock picks since 100% invested in mine, but his advice is accurate.
