9/15
Bought and Sold XRS for a 1.21% gain
This was a quick day trade. I set a trailing 1% stop on a strong breakout and netted a decent gain for a day. I won't do many of these - it is a very different method of trading than my primary system and it's best that I master one approach before dabbling in another.
Bought SUPN at $23.33
Normally I won't buy biotech stocks because I don't have a stomach for the potential events which can be created if there is an issue with a drug or treatment. However, I just absolutely loved this chart and the fundamentals. The biotech sector is on fire after a long downtrend and I like what the company is working on - better solutions for diabetics among other treatments.
