How I made 4389.80% in one day on LINCOLN NATL CP PF 3 (LNC-P)

Friday, January 25th, 2008

Based on the technical and fundamental analysis indicators that I check - like RSI and CCI and MACD and PE Ratios - I purchased LNC-P yesterday at $24.50 and sold it today for $1100.
LNC-P
Man that was awesome.
I was able to do it because I used risk management and I was very careful and always stuck to my trading plan. Not only that, I wrote up a trading plan on paper with a pencil and outlined my goals.
I have also read many books on trading and the stock market.
When I was a kid, and the other kids were out playing baseball, I was inside studying the stock market.

CHIMERA INVESTMENT (CIM)

Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008

Oh man, I was stopped out of CIM today. Check out this chart:
CIM
I never thought I would be stopped out on the day one of my position trades made a new all-time high. Damn. I guess my stop was just a tad too high (below Jan 16 low at 17.24). 16.99 would have worked perfectly.
I was also stopped out of FCSX under $43 today, but I took 20+ points out of ES futures which made up for it. I’m all cash right now.
CIM looks pretty nice.
