SMC  24 AUG 2018


chart reading as of end of 24 AUG 2018

1. the macd histogram is above the 0 - line ...

2. SMC closed higher to 171.80 ... up 7.38% ...  

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

my take on SMC: 

1. if i were a short term trend follower ... di na ako bibili now ... the histogram is already above the 0 - line ... id wait muna ulit until the histogram is below the 0 - line to buy again ...

2. if i already have SMC ... hold lang ako ... possibly sell half my position when my stop is hit ...

3, naglaro mga tsupitero kanina sa FB ... pati SMC nadamay ... nag high na sya ng 174.50 bago binuhusan hanggang 168.00 ... sa closing na lang sinara sa 171.80 ...

4. posible pa din magprofit take next week ... so tingnan ko lang if my stop is hit ... maybe ill sell half ...

*my buy criteria: i buy when the following happens:
1. the macd histogram is below the 0 - line
2. if the current price is higher than the most recent price bottom
3. i buy on breakout ONLY when adding to an ALREADY EXISTING position

*when do i sell? i sell when:
1. i cutloss just below the most recent bottom
2. my trail stop is hit (this means that my position is already net positive)

*what stocks do i buy?
1. index stocks
2. stocks that have a current story as disclosed in the edge website ...
3. speculative stocks

*what do i do when i start buying a stock?
1. when i buy, i buy in phases .... when i see a stock fulfilling my buy criteria .... i initially buy 1/3 or 1/4 of my allocation for a particular stock ... then i wait and observe ....pp
2. on subsequent days ... when the price of the stock advances... i add 1/3 of my allocation ....
3. i add my last 1/3 allocation when the stock advances some more ...

*what i dont?

* what is a "short term trend follower"
* these notes are good only for the next trading day ... and NOT for the subsequent trading days
* these notes are mine alone ... and are for sharing with short-term trend followers

STOCK TRADING IS A VERY SPECULATIVE ACTIVITY ... IT IS NOT SAFE FOR NEWBIES AND OLDIES ALIKE ... LOSING YOUR MONEY IS A REAL POSSIBILITY AT ALL TIMES!


p.s. readers are encouraged to check out the stocks' charts themselves .. using the values for each of the indicators (my values for the indicators are the default values used in the PSE TOOLS charts) ...
