Hey, Profit is Profit!

I just posted about 20 trades I made since 3/7/08. I got an overwhelming response to such activity, with 2 votes and 2 responses (one of which was mine, LOL). I guess my style is what some folks find as exciting and I'm ok with that. I just keep rolling along taking small profits when available. It's tough out there and finding a winner in a over all down market can sometimes be very challenging.

 

I have only been here a little over a month and have been doing fairly well. As of yesterday I was showing a little over 45% over the past 30 days. I feel like I'm set up nice for April as well. I am looking hard at the AG stocks and some Tech stocks. Both of these sectors should be able to withstand these bearish market, imo. Particularly attractive to me are the AG stocks as I feel the ethonal craze is now over and food prices are going up.

 

China and all of Asia is feeling the pinch of food shortages and this bodes well for the AG stocks. Even the "Mad Man" Cramer has his favorite 5 of which I really like POT. I have it on my radar screen and love that it's falling. My charts on POT show it as almost ready for me to attack. But hey what do I know? I have only made 45% so far. LOL

While many folks have not discovered or decided to use the voting feature yet, and some folks don't ever post comments, your contributions to the community are obviously valued - this post has been viewed 43 times already (43 views in 5 1/2 hours is one viewer every 7.7 minutes!), and your more recent one on Greed is already over 30 views.  Your peers dig it!
