Should have stopped doing anything to my account since last post, but since I was so free, I went in and made another stupid mistake to sell Yoma which is supposed to hold for long term. A biggest mistake so far, because right after I sell, it shoot up all the way to the TP. Thus instead of earning 12%, I earned less than 2% sob sob... buồn như con chuồn chuồn :'(
Have to repeatedly told myself not be feel bad and that market always gives other chances. Anyway, this Yoma kept going up further after breaking the 12% target, super crazy...

I have hold on this stock for almost a year, bought on a downtrend in Apr 2012 and suffer from seeing it going down to the bottom. I tried to average down 2 times and this has eat up more than 25% of my portfolio. Finally I got chance to sell all once it hits my first target. The first batch lost a lot of money but the 2nd and 3rd average batch did give me a reasonable coverage. But then it goes up further to my original price after 3-4 days :)) so funny and stupid. However, thanks to the lesson I learnt from Yoma above, I jumped in and continued to buy a bit more to wait for my 2nd target price, sold after 3 days to get a small profit. Not a lot but at least didn't feel so bad like last time...

Another time to jump in penny. I bought this based on the TA, it has a very good chart, but I was hesitated to sell when the price went up, too greedy :) so it went all the way down after that. This was sucks because penny can bring fast money but can also make you lost fastest. Within a week I saw the stock drops 5% easily.
Maybe because pregnancy made my temper change quite a lot, I didn't know what I was thinking at that time when I jump in to average for just 0.1cent difference :( And observed it dropped much more argh... Anyway, thanks to the bullish market, finally my patience was rewarded. It went up a bit again after 20 days waiting, so I managed to get out for a fair profit.

Blindly bought based on TA again, and I was too scared so instead of waiting for the high TP, I closed my small size position within a day for a 6% profit. A small Ang Bao (red parket) for my little girl :)

I suggested Dear to buy this when the cooling measurement just came out, but he rejected :( The price is too good to enter at that time but since its basic price is way too high (more than 11$/share) so Dear told me to stay away from it. I know after SIA, I have told myself not to play expensive stock because it is not worth the time and capital. But since I couldn't find any stock with good chart to buy, so I was very tempted. Originally I intended to use Dear's account to buy this, because my account is more for penny, it's very limited. But since he was not interested, I finally used mine :D
Of course I could buy only 1 lot, which is ridiculous for most traders I think. Anyway after 9 days waiting patiently, it finally went up. I decided to sell early for a very small profit (3.3%) though the chart is still very good, as I don't know when I'm going to deliver, and it's not good to tie such a big capital for this kind of "fast moving stock". It is still moving up now, but nothing to regret, any single $ earned does count :)

January summary: omg, I just summarized my transaction, for the month of Jan 2013, I made a total of 12 buy orders and 11 sell orders. This is not very good, because too many orders only cost me a big amount of commission fee, especially when I can only use very small capital for each transaction. Though in general it did help me earning instead of losing money, but quick transactions brought me much less money than what I should receive... hmm, how to get rid of emotion and stick to the plan? This is a tough journey...
