It’s good that you’ve got 30% in. Certainly better than nothing, or at least so far that’s how it looks like. I’ve got 50% in, and I’m hoping to put 30% more. We shall see how it unfolds.

My plan going into the week is to sit tight and see if a dip materializes with the Fed meeting. If it doesn\’t go down, it\’s ok because I have 30% in. If it does, I can stop kicking myself for not being all the way in already.

Just another FYI. Because now I can almost trade for free from my FirsTrade account (due to all the referals from readers), I had the advantage of splitting my transaction size into smaller bites without incurring transaction costs.

Thanks for your feedback Merez. I seldom do any big movement like this however. Once things are back to more “normal” (not sure how to define it), I may be doing nothing about my portfolio.

I like reading your trading posts (please continue them). It gives me a chance to see another trader’s mind at work, and it’s been something that I’ve been interested in for a while.

I will say that I know almost nothing about the pm market, other than the two efts tracking gold and silver and how to buy and sell the actual metals themselves.

I will probably trim some either from my old holdings or the new purchases if the market goes back up to a high point. But I buy stocks mostly for long term holdings. Simply don’t have time for trading in & out or watch it how it swings. It has been a long time since I “splurge” thru my cash.

If the market doesn’t dip, I may again park some of my cash in the dividend stocks.

Too bad that you went on vacation. But you still got filled on selling your PUT & other stuffs. So that was probably good.

Frugal,

Nicely done. Are you going to trade these positions or are they longer term holds?
