I averaged down my SWKS to 17.35. I’m looking to let the profit ride around 21.50, but could get out sooner if I need the cash.

I started buying back into SWKS again at 18.12 last week. I also picked up some Amazon at 186.66 this morning. The SWKS is yet another SWKS trade looking to make some more short term cash. My plan for AMZN is to let the profit ride at $240.
I picked up some SWKS today. Earnings come out tomorrow. This has been one of my favorite trades to be in and out of this year. We’ll see how things go tomorrow before I decide what happens next, but the general plan is to hold at least until Friday and no longer than the end [...]
Quick weekend update. I’m continuing to lock in my gains and generate extra cash. I sold my AAPL after it started to come down after earnings for a nice overall gain over the last couple years. I picked up lots of Apple in the mid 100′s (more than doubled!), low 200′s, low 300′s, around $390 [...]

Here we go again, and this time it’s tech season!
SWKS got under 19 faster than I was expecting. I already got to pick some up at 18.68.
I had a busy July and August which resulted in not all of my buys and sells getting a blog entry. I think to make things easier going forward I’m going to save the routine moves for a larger monthly or quarterly update post but continue to post the exceptions at the end of the [...]
