I'll buy it at open
Hold it until it breaks its uptrend
Sell the entire amount

Starting with $250,000 today Thursday 12 Jan 2012

12 Jan 500 IHS @ 91.73 - SLD 18 jan @91.82
5 Jan low =84.52
17 Jan high = 92.31 +9.2%



13 Jan 1200 WYN @ 39.15 - SLD 18 jan @39.01
4 Jan low =36.26
17 Jan high = 39.69 +9.45%

Using +9% on:
CMG ==> 366.55 target

I am considering selling these at there targets.
Any thoughts?
