May 31

Slow week.  Busy and not able to pay attention to trading as much.  If nothing pops up tomorrow I expect I’ll jump into something next week.  
FYI, in case anyone was wondering: even though the portfolio is considerable bigger, I do not plan on increasing my “max per trade” policy of $2,500 at the moment.  Once I have made a full $1,000 (i.e. once the portfolio hits $6,000) I’ll consider either increasing the max-per-trade for the 2 trade cycle or moving to a 3 trade cycle with a max of $2,000 per trade.  
The latter would give me greater flexibility and be able to jump into more trades and not have to skip as many as I’ve had to in order to avoid trading with unsettled funds.  


We’ll see what happens.

Out CEDC 4.03 for 5.5%ish gain.  Profit is profit, won’t hear me complaining about 5%... in fact thats part of Jason Bond's core strategy, "5-10% rinse and repeat" as he always says".  He explains this in the 3rd paragraph here in his quick start guide.

In CEDC 3.82.  A European stock.  Interested to see where this goes... looking for a cliche European joke I can use here... nope... nothing...

Out JVA for a whopping 15% overnight!  
I exited at 7.67 for my biggest win yet.  I think it’s safe to say Jason Bond is 
officially awesome.  And so is Java.  Might have to go over there for a cup of Joe to show my appreciation…

In JVA at 6.68; most expensive stock I’ve bought so far (JAVA 
coffee…pretty big company I guess); only able to afford 370 shares with my 
predetermined $2,500 per trade policy.  
Hoping this will be the morale booster I need after last week’s
loss.

Punched out of WTSLA at 2.97 for a 5% loss.  
Sad but will try to remain optimistic in light of the previous two
successful trades.  Portfolio is 
still up overall…not the end of the world.

In WTSLA at 3.12.  Let's see if we can continue our winning streak!  Speaking of winning streaks, here's a pretty amazing article on Jason Bond Picks about a crazy streak he had a few months ago.  One of the reasons I jumped off the fence and subscribed... (click here for article).
