We are making a number of changes to the LOTM Ten Under $10 list today. We see opportunities and yet want to limit the number of positions held on the list in order to keep a focus. That does not necessarily mean we are negative on any of the positions on the list but rather we see some combination of timely & higher potential in other companies than the company we are exiting.

Stocks we are adding to the LOTM: Ten under $10

As is our discipline in this public example, we use the same dollar amount – $1,000 – for each position.

NOTE: a better way for scalability of an active portfolio is to limit the number of positions (companies held rather than number of units in each position) and keep a % of the account as your measure for position size. EXAMPLE: 20 positions at 5% in each position. Then work into over-weight positions and under-weight position as you make determinations on the degree of commitment you want to each company. Staying limited to a set number of units of commitment, forces a certain discipline on Continue reading →

Below we will present one version of “harvesting” profits as a stock rallies. We consider this a conservative plan. A more aggressive plan might be the process popularized by Richard Dennis in his “Turtle Traders” program. In his process, once Dennis caught a trend upwards, he used price corrections back to a support level, to buy more shares thus increasing cost and the size of the share position.

Harvesting Profits with pre-set goals in Stage Analysis

The LOTM approach below is similar to a farmer selectively harvesting a “crop” as the “crop” reaches different degrees of maturity. In our approach we plant the seeds during the over-sold or base building stage (Stage one chart analysis), watching the seed maturing and bearing fruit (stage two chart analysis) and harvesting that fruit in a planned and systematic way (late stage two stage three and early stage four Continue reading →
