US Stock of the Day - Understanding How it Works

US Stock of the Day is for traders who are looking for a US Stock to trade each day. I base my picks on US Stocks I follow on the Nasdaq, Dow, S&P and other indices such as the Russell 1000, etc., watching for a swing in the momentum upward. I keep a tight stop loss on all trades to minimize my risk... and allow the great stock trades to continue rising. These are not recommendations... merely entertainment. Please see the warning at the bottom of this page.

Let's take a look at where we stand!

FOSL - purchase on June 27 @ $114.11 sitting today @ $128.92, a 13% gain.  I'm keeping my stop loss @ $122.50.

July 15th, I chose ISRG @ $361.95 with a stop loss @ $360.31.  It did not trigger.  July 18th, I adjusted it to $362.94 with a stop loss at $359.31 at it triggered, closing at $362.28... for what I'll call even for now.

For July 18th, I'm choosing SBUX @ $40.03 with a stop loss @ $39.62.

OVERALL 

The Overall total return is 59.6% since my first purchase approximately one month ago.


So far... 6 winners... 3 even... and 4 losers (at -1% each) for a great overall profit.
