The "I picked a winner!" gloating thread

hey i had 4 loss trades in a row last week .........beat that

ha ha I'll try beat that Nun, I got squeezed to the tick after holding a long into oil inventories 12:30am Thurs morning, see that large wick down, that was my stop going off at the very tip (bout 60 tick loss per contract)! Note: don't hold into oil inventories, even if your bullish as hell and have a HUGE stop!

That night (nearly 12 hours later), I went max long oil about 3 times after S&P broke it's previous pivot high, only to get squeezed, so I finally flipped the position and :eek: Ended up loosing on what should have been at least 10k USD.

Beat that, wipe-out-and-a-half!
 
I'm not gloating. I just want to tell my investment and trading patterns. Here are my picks especially during the downtimes some for investing and some for trading:

MCC-2ish Now almost 8
CEY-dog? Holding on since I waited for months. Why not wait for a couple more
BTA-$1.15 now 1.8. Will sell at $2.5
MMX-.5ish now 1.8 and rising. Uptrend like history repeating itself
NUF-defensive play so I thought but SinoChem interested
GPT-.3 now .5 though thinking of selling since its not the same company anymore
GMG-.285 will sell at $1
BHP-21 now 37. Wipee. I bought an OZ icon at a good price
WOR-12 and will sell at 50.

I tried other stocks but some are dogs to me.

Gurus will say time in the market not timing the market. Rubbish.Tell that to the retirees!!! It's all about timing, topping up and selling when your happy with the profits. I buy most especially when the market is down. Oh and I don't sell when markets are down. I HOLD. Why? Because it always goes back to the price that I bought it. I will not make my broker rich just because I'm scared.

I'm thinking that I should have bought more and should remove the fear but I'm only human. I well sell when I need the money and when I'm happy with the profits. When the next downturn comes, I will buy more.
 
i removed 2 of my recent posts as they were of no value to this thread. i already know that i am the greatest and theres no point gloating about it

thankyou
