Jul 25th DayTrading Portfolio (second update):
I bought to cover 500 shares of MS at $31,850 [63.70, for $200 gain], and sold short 500 shares of MS at $32,300 [64.60].
I plan to sell the EBAY shares on bounces, perhaps above 25.75, and wait for a pullback to buy EBAY again. Also, I plan to sell short DIA or MS. If IMGN rises to 3.10, 3.15, or 3.20, I'll sell. If MS pulls-back to 63.70, I'll cover half of the shares. QLGC and AMZN report earnings after the close Tue. However, those trades may be too risky, although both may rise somewhat before the close.
The 2,000 shares of EBAY were bought at an average price of 25.75, IMGN was bought at 2.95, and MS was sold short at an average price of 64.10. Stop losses are EBAY 21.00, IMGN 2.60, and MS 66.10.
My portfolio is over $95,000, including about negative $35,000 in cash.
Shares Long
EBAY 2,000
IMGN 5,000
Shares Short
MS 1,000
