✣ Portfolio Outlook.

Another week, another hit.

I have been too enthusiast with IREN and put too much weight and risk on it, the result was a bigger loss than anticipated. Well after it, I realized that I did exactly the same mistake on a new position on MRX that I will have to reduce ASAP to a more normalized risk of 1%

All this made me revisiting my system entirely and I think that I have now something far better than before and more momentum and swing based. The only missing piece and the most important is translating words into facts, so we will see.

Due to this, I could close KALU no later than on Monday close due to lost of momentum and I will also re-evaluate my other two as the don’t match anymore my entry conditions.

✣ Market Environment

Markets at All Time Highs with techs coming back strongly while Energy is retreating.

 

✣ Portfolio Outlook.

I got a hit this week because of TSSI which gaped down some 30% on earnings announcement, so I’m taking 2 lessons, from this.

The first one is that no trade should be kept before earnings with less than 30% buffer either from entry point, for a break even exit, or from stop loss, if I’m willing to take the risk.
In this case I had 20% buffer distance to stop and it was clearly not enough.

The second one is that I must be more strict in my stock selection and focus more on quality, this is something I will have to work on in the following months...
