MSFT long pre-market at 374.47As those who follow me know, NASDAQ:MSFT is one of my favorite stocks to trade. It boast a return/day held that all-time is about 5x the average daily return for the market. I've literally never lost a trade involving MSFT, and I don't think this will be the first time. I'm fully expecting this one to take longer than the 9 trading days average, but it could always flip in a day, too.
Another fun fact - MSFT just recorded its 4th consecutive monthly decline. That's only happened twice in the last 39 years. The last time it did was in 2008 and 12 months later it was up over 50%. Not looking to be in the trade for that long, obviously, but someone might be interested in that nugget. BTW - the time before that was 2005 and it was up 12 months later then, too, just not as significantly.
I'll add to my position strategically, given the downtrend in MSFT and the market, and I will use FPC (first profitable close) to exit any lot on the day it closes at any profit.
As always - this is intended as "edutainment" and my perspective on what I am or would be doing, not a recommendation for you to buy or sell. Act accordingly and invest at your own risk. DYOR and only make investments that make good financial sense for you in your current situation.
