That might just be the beginning...

But we continue to profit...

FOSL - purchase on June 27 @ $114.11 triggered a sale today @ $125.95 for a  $130.41, a 10.4% gain.    I'll take it...

ISRG - purchase on July 18 @ $362.94 closing today @ $393.58, a 8.4% gain.  I'm keeping my stop loss to $390.12.

MCP - purchase on July 26 @ $61.25 triggered a sale today @ $62.16, a 1.5% gain.  Once again, I'll take it considering the markets!

July 27th, I chose HS @ $45.40 with a stop loss @ $44.94.  It did not trigger.  But I'll be back for this one.

For July 28th, I'm choosing WYNN @ $165.36 with a stop loss @ $163.71.  I'm not really expecting this will trigger but I don't feel like shorting stocks in this volatile environment either.

OVERALL 

The Overall total return is 65.1% since my first purchase approximately 6 weeks ago.

So far... 8 winners... 2 even... and 7 losers (at -1% each, and one at 0.3%) for a great overall profit.

I would encourage you, especially if you're looking for a more stable, weekly approach to trading, to look at http://www.investinthemarkets.com/.  

See you tomorrow!
