Aug 17th Trading Log (Recap and Wed Trading Plan):
Basically, I took advantage of volatility, while keeping my portfolio in optimization, and built-up cash. The trend is still down, unless the Dow can rally and stay above 10,000 on a heavy volume day (this week, which is options expiration week, may skew volume, to the upside). I plan to stay heavy in cash and wait for excellent opportunities, which eventually always show up. See "Top Stock Picks" for Wed.
My portfolio is over $900,000 including over $750,000 in cash.
