Good morning @peter2BIN was a very successful float in early 2017 as the price gained >100% in the following 18 months.
Since then, the price has fallen considerably with the market selloff, Sep - Dec 2018. Price has bounced off the recent low and is now starting to look more bullish.
The chart below is part of a research project and should not be considered a recommendation to buy this stock. If you want to read more about the project log in to read the P2 Weekly Portfolio thread.
Setup: BO-NH after a series of higher lows (daily chart). One HL weekly chart.
Grade B due to recent huge selloff.
Buy: 2.29, iSL 1.95, let it go, trail stop

Yes, I normally get one huge disappointment and several smaller disappointments each year. That's with a 12 position portfolio. A 40 position portfolio is going to get many more disappointments, but each position is much smaller. This hit from BIN may cost the portfolio a 3R loss that's only 0.8%. Had this position been in my own portfolio a 3R loss would have been -3%.
Please note that I did grade BIN as a B grade opportunity due to the steepness of the recent down trend. (I am monitoring the performance of the A graders vs the B graders and I may show their relative performance in the future.)
Oh and I did know that I was buying this before it's scheduled report. I accepted the risk that the report may move the price in either direction.
How I would handle BIN from here (pm 18th Feb). The low is 1.20 and I'll wait until late in the trading day to see if the low price attracts any buyers and closes well above the low. If price is going to close off the low, I won't sell and place my exit stop at today's low (1.20). If price closes near the low I'll exit just before the close or first thing next morning.

Pete,Thank-you @just_jay.
My thoughts are based on an active trading approach. I can't consider myself an investor. If I was an investor I'd be all over the latest update and reading between the lines. It seems to me that today's selling is totally exaggerated. I know it's best if I follow my own trading plans.
If the market thinks BIN is garbage, then I won't argue.
It seems to me that today's selling is totally exaggerated.
With the price of BIN at an all time low, every stock holder is losing capital on that holding.
Regarding today's action, if the selling was irrational and over the top then investors would have stepped up in the afternoon and the price would have closed >1.25. They didn't, price closed on a new low. Price looks likely to be going lower tomorrow.
After today BIN is totally off my radar and you won't be seeing anymore comments from me. I look forward to reading the opinions of the contrarian investors.
I am on a self inflicted silence from ASF as I am trying to re-create my trading style to short term from long term and I don't need/want distractions.
I have more time now I have retired to focus on stocks, sitting in stocks for years is not a huge challenge and dare I say, slightly boring!Why
You have around 100% hit rate?
I don't understand.
If I could emulate that I wouldn't
be looking ANYWHERE!
Hint
Using oscillators for short term trading will
be dangerous to your Capital.
