Sold IMO.TO

I wanted to start the new year by banking some coin. Sold IMO.TO with a $309/7.2% profit.

Happy New Year

OMG. 2012 already. I help its going to be a better year trading wise and I really feel that this could be a turning point year for me as a trader. 2011 was a dud and very difficult to trade, even for the pros. I ended the year down 6.02% and closed at $16,142. The good news is that I started trading Pam's account in May and she's up over 8% to $16,219 (started at $15K).

We're leaving for Bali/Indonesia on the 10th of January for 6 weeks and well be returning on the 21st of February so after I will close out the last position in IMO.TO and not trade probably until march.

Sold RR.TO

I just don't have the stomach for this whippy bullshit. Got out with a $20 gain.

Sold HOD.TO

Sold my oil short HOD.TO at 5.75 with net profit of $230/8.8%

HOD.TO

I took a tiny position in HOD.TO which is the Crude Oil 2x short. I bought 500 shares at 5.25 with a stop at low of day.

This is the USO oil etf which I based my short on. It's had a straight up run and it gapped up today right into resistance, see red circles. Today could be a exhaustion gap, hopefully it'll gap down tomorrow creating a island top.

Sold HED.TO & HFD.TO

This market is soooo god damn skittish that I can't hold anything for more than three 60 min bars. It gaps up or down everyday and I don't have the stomach or balls to hold it over a weekend. Stopped myself out and took a $10 Loss.

Stopped myself out and took a $10 gain. I may reenter this one, financials look the weakest.

Bought HFD.TO & HED.TO

HED.TO is the 2x TSX energy short. I bought 1000 shares at 4.48

HFD.TO is the 2x TSX financial short. I bought 600 shares  at 8.51

Stopped Out AUQ.TO & BTO.TO

I decided to bail out of both of these positions that I bought only yesterday because of the Greek confidence vote tonight. I didn't want to hold over the weekend because it's too crazy. Anything can happen! Obviously it was a bad move but oh well. Even trade.

I was looking for a immediate up move because of the tight 15min. So I bailed because of the Greek confidence vote. Loss $70/1.8%

15min chart.

Bought AUQ.TO & BTO.TO

Bought 1000 shares at 3.91 of BTO.TO. I may not hold this over the weekend because of news concerning Greece. Bad things happen over weekends these days.

 

This is the 15min view of BTO.TO. I bought it because of the tight triangle which favors a continuation pattern.

I also took a stab with 500 shares of AUQ.TO at 10.30  

Stopped Out AVL.TO

Stopped out of AVL.TO with a $10 Loss. This market is way too crazy and volatile, you can't hold on to any positions for more that a day.

Stopped Out PRU.TO

This is why this market is damn hard right now, add junior gold stocks on top and its chaos. Everything looked great yesterday and thank god I stuck with my trading plan and sold half. Then WHAM, crash and burn with a gap down. Netted $45/1.3%
