question and answer: short term trend following and long term position trading .. (23 APR 2017)

from a Finance Manila reader this morning ...

question:

Hi Sir Shoyu

Am a long term here (ACR) . But buys when I think price is cheap. But using technique as a short term trend follower I entered @ 1.45 when MACD is higher at 0.01. I added again April 21 @ 1.53 when MACD is .02. Am I doing the right thing?

My long term holdings with ACR average 1.25

TIA


my reply:

a short term trend follower follows the cycle of the stock price .... when the macd is below the 0 - horizontal and it is going up na (as well as the price ) you start buying ... then sell when the price is lower (cutloss) or when it hits your trailing stops (when the price is higher which means profit ka ) ... one cycle lang .... buy low .. sell high ...

if you are a long term trader ... you wont mind the cycles .. basta buy ka lang ng buy ...

so either short term trend follower ka .. or a buy and hold long term trader .... you cant be both ...

if you want to be both ... make a distinction .. two positions ... one is for short term trend following ... one is for long term position trading ... then trade them separately ... wag paghaluin ...

when using the macd .. i dont look at the numbers ... just look at the positions of the lines .. if the macd HISTOGRAM is below the 0 - horizontal and is rising (as well as the price) .. yun .. start buying ako ... walang number numbers ...

ask lang if may tanong ka pa ...

good luck!

questions and answers: on mrc (07 APR 2017)

on facebook .. i was asked the folllowing yesterday ...

Sir, how do u decide to add on a stock even if the price seems already high? What factors do look at or ano po strategy gamit niyo? Thanks

my response:

i have no scientific explanation for this .... altho i have many unscientific ones ... first ... you may add on a stock that you already have a previous base on at a lower price .. my base is at 19plus ... second ... as long as your allocaton is not yet filled for the stock .. you may continue buying at higher prices .. i have only 1/3 of my budget for mrc filled .. so meron pa 2/3 ... third .... buy only at higher prices .. dont add when prices go low .. TANGA lang ang gumagawa nun ... fourth .. for as along as i feel na hindi pa tapos ang story ng isang stock for this particular cycle .. ok pa mag buy up .. and kahapon may disclosure pa na bago .... . which makes the next asm as my possible sell area ... .

question and answer: JFC, DNL and MPI (04 APR 2017)

from a reader in Finance Manila ....

question:

"sir shoyu, wat do u think of JFC DNL and MPI? i both have the 3..."


answer:

first ... "both" is only for two ... not 3 ...

JFC

if i am a trend follower and i have JFC .. continue ko lang hold sya now ... ang hirap makahanap ng trail stop ...  ill set my trail stop just below 195 ...


DNL

trading range is 12.64 - 12.96 ... well the histogram is still below the 0 - horizontal .. so hold lang ako .. walang nangyayari pa sa kanya .. trail stop is just below 12.64 ...  magkaka excitement lang ulet kung above 12.96 - 13.00 ito ...


MPI

trailing stop at just below 5.98 ... hopefully magtuloytuloy ang histogram beyond the 0 - horizontal ... of course hold lang ako ...
