I'm Learning

I'm pretty happy with how I handled things today. I had many stocks take a big dive (SMTX, TRA, CPLA, SPTN, SYNL) and my decision to tighten my stops and keep my profits worked out very well. I was up 1.20%. I love it when that happens on a down day and I'm getting better at making sure it works out that way.

Hi. I understand how tighter stops can minimize the losses but how can it make you up more than 1% when your stocks are down?

CAE, VSEC, ARII, and HOC all had positive days. I'm heavily weighted in VSEC which pulled the portfolio up above 1%. Great question!
