Here is exactly what I wrote in my personal trading journal today.
March 20, 2007
Overview of last trade:
500 IBN @ $47.64 on 5-18-07.
Breakout over 4 month resistance level on strong volume and accumulating stock. Cause for concern is that new highs are formed with slightly lower RSI and parobilic 6 point move prior to new high breakout. I will place stop at breakout point ($45).
Market and Sector Notes:
Look for pullback in energy. Currently overbought. The sector has been a buy on any dip for the past few months.
Many steel stocks are close close to good buypoints but may want a little more pullback.
Indices are all extended and on or near new highs. Expect a hard correction that could happen at any time, and be prepared. Until then, continue to play the long side.
Self-analysis:
I need to continue to honor my stops and not be so quick to pull out of a trade. I've been tempted of late to chase some hot sectors, like energy. I need to keep my cool and wait for a pullback.
