TRLG sold

We bought it on March 18th at $10.53 and sold it on June 16th at around $20 for a 89% gain.

An update on Stop Loss orders

In this volatile market we should pay attention to protect our gains, specially for those positions on which we are gaining well.




Let's take our four best performers: TRLG (up 105%), AFAM (up 81%), IPHS (up 61%) and WDC (up 42%).



I would suggest to:

1. Almost Family, Inc. (AFAM) move the stop loss from $21.22 to $21.45
2. Innophos Holdings, Inc. (IPHS) move the stop loss from $12.21 to $12.60
3. True Religion Apparel, Inc. (TRLG) move the stop loss from $14.01 to $14.37
4. WESTERN DIGITAL CP (WDC) move the stop loss from $20.51 to $20.52

Happy trading

Good news for our AFAM and TRLG

Both AFAM and TRLG posted good earning surprises.
We bought them cheap last month (AFAM at $17.41 - now around $30 - and TRLG at $10.53 - now around $20) and we are now in a very positive territory.
