Oops...I realize now I misread your question.

I would *hold on* up to 8% below buy price, but if the stock comes back =
and *kisses* the pivot, then I would buy more. I'm not inclined to buy =
more when the stock drops *below* the pivot, unless it shows strong =
volume pushing it back up to the pivot and beyond. Now I think I've =
confused even myself!

This is the way I think of it  "Kiss the pivot, second chance to buy =
more---Hit the pivot, yellow flag"

| | Katherine,
| |
| | I knew I could count on you for a good answer.  As a follow up to =
your
| | answer #4, if you made 10-15% in one week, how low would you allow =
the
| | stock to drop on low volume and still buy more, as opposed to =
selling out?
| |
| | Put another way, if it ran up 15% in a week, would you allow it to =
go
| below
| | your original buy point, even if it was at low volume?
| |
| |
| | Have a great weekend everyone!

| | Hi Nancy,
| |
| | Let me try and clear up some of your confusion:
| |
| | 1. A stock's "rise" does not occur *in* a base, but *between* bases. =
While
| | the price will fluctuate up and down within the base itself, the =
amount of
| | fluctuation will vary depending on the severity of correction and =
the time
| | it takes to form the area of consolidation. The stock is essentially
| | *absorbing* the gains of its previous advance.
| |
| | 2. When you purchase a stock, you will always purchase it as it =
*breaks
| | out*
| | of that base. This preferred buy point is referred to as the "pivot" =
and
| is
| | again defined by the pattern that the base forms.
| |
| | 4. When a stock begins a healthy rising pattern after it breaks out, =
it
| can
| | rise *any* amount before it consolidates (bases) again. There is no =
hard
| | and
| | fast rule as to how much it will rise before basing, though WON =
suggests
| | that if it is >=3D25%, the next base would then be considered a "new =
stage
| | base." This is only important in that his studies show that most =
stocks
| | can't muster the oomph to keep going after they've reached the 3rd =
or 4th
| | stage base.
| |
| | 3. Mike's question about a sell rule is not dependent on *which* =
base in
| | the
| | base count we are evaluating. A base is a base. If the stock breaks =
out as
| | it should and begins to rise, how are you going to handle selling it
| | when/if
| | the time comes?
| |
| | 4. WON suggests that, if you buy correctly at the pivot (or no more =
than
| 5%
| | above it), that you should never have to suffer a loss of more than =
8%.
| | This
| | is because, in his studies, he has found that a healthy stock never =
falls
| | more than 8% below the pivot before continuing a healthy advance.
| |
| | 5. Mike's question, specifically, was "if a stock breaks out of a =
base,
| | then
| | rises 10-15%, then falls back, where do you place your sell stop? 8% =
below
| | your buy price or something other than that?" In other words, should =
you
| be
| | willing to accept *any* loss if a stock has managed to rise 10-15% =
in 6
| | wks,
| | then falls back to where you bought it. My vote is, if it takes 6 =
wks to
| | rise and then erases the entire advance, I don't want to take an 8% =
loss.
| | If
| | it rose 10-15% in *one* week and then fell back on low volume, I'd =
look at
| | that as "normal" and might consider it a second chance to *buy* =
more.

| | | Katherine-let me see if I am following correctly please.  My =
question is
| | | that previously I understood that after the third rise in a base
| | formation
| | a
| | | stock may correct by dropping below the previous base and then =
starting
| | up
| | | again if all is well with the stock.  Then the bases start to be
| | recounted
| | | again.  In this case, if you just bought in during the third rise =
in the
| | | base, which from my understanding would probably go up between =
15%(Mikes
| | | figure) and 25%( the amount of each rise in a base of a healthy =
stock)
| | you
| | | would sell(not you personally but someone with my amount of =
experience
| or
| | | the like) before the 8% drop, to protect your gain.  Then follow =
the
| | stock
| | | and watch for a buy in again at some point depending on how the =
stock
| | acts
| | | from this point on?  Is that close to correct ???  Thanks for your
| | thoughts
