SUPER APPLE ~ APPLE INC COM (AAPL: NASDAQ)

AAPL up to $159.69!!!!

we wanted 160 before April 19th

hmmmm ... close enough? ... was today the BIG REVERSAL?



APVDK was up 98% today, so if you owned it on friday (before our weekend RECO) you'da just hit a ground rule double, thats too much. DIP Logic being, that if we bought it on Friday we would have to have sold some today up 100%+ ...hmmmm... let's assume you bought at the open or in the first half hour of trading at $5.50ish... within a few hours you were up 30%+ , again too much too quick ... must take quick profits in 2008.

BOTD LONG AAPL 4 LIFE!
(still holding AAPL shares bought at $9 in 2001) ... go team!

p.s. KANSAS or MEMPHIS?

BUY ON THE DIP said...

If you bought a $5 stock , and it went to $7 ....would you take some profits?

Depends on your original trade goal...right?

Have a sell target in mind before you buy.

How much are you allocating to this trade, how much profit is needed for the trade to make sense?

$1,000 invested with 10% gain.
$100 profit ... not worth it.
risk reward = boring.

10,000 trade, 10% return,
$1000 win...we'll take it.

$10,000 risk, 30-60% return ...$3000-$6000 bucks...hmmm... thats a mortgage payment, must take some profits. happy trading ;-)

$1,000 risk, 70-90% return, $700 to $900, take the money and reinvest in another trade!

$10,000 risk, 100%+ reward.
