SPY -0.93%, Boring August Day

August 27th, 2007 at 6:28 pm

I’d say “Meh” accurately describes today’s action.

Everything off fractionally, with the main port doing the best and the brokerage account doing the worst. (But still better than the S&P.)

Closed:
[a] DOM, +1.29%, held overnight
[c] COP, +2.73%, held 17 days.  This was a screwy trade.  First, I managed to miss a perfectly good sell early on.  Then today, I got a partial fill at my target price, but then had 30 shares just sitting out there.  This trade has dragged on for so long I just decided to finish it off at the close and be done with it.

Opened:
2 AAP picks
[b] MEDX

Main trading port: -3.85%
Retirement port: -0.31%
Brokerage: -0.46%
BBE Overall: -2.90%
% of Trading Targets reached: -21.09%
I’m fucked ratio: 5.5 to 6.3
Long to Cash %s: 71.13% to 28.87%

[a] Dividend play
[b] Stockpickr 3×2
[c] AAP pick
