Thoughts


Another fairly volatile week, which I like to see. Volatility picked up on Thursday and Friday, after a quiet start to the week.

Over my 2.5% weekly benchmark again this week.

Miners were volatile on thursday, with AAL and BLT gapping down - see chart.









Both AAL, BLT and RIO made 30 day lows this week.
Most of my watch list stocks finished the week lower



BP made a new 52 week high on Friday, crude was also strong following the events in Iraq.

A couple of poor exits, and a few missed opportunities. That's trading.
I remain cautious on the equity markets for now.
Looking forward to more opportunities next week.

Stay disciplined.

Stay focussed.

Stay humble.
