Canadian Stock Pick of the Day - Understanding How it Works

Canadian Stock of the Day is for traders who are looking for a Canadian Stock to trade each day. I base my picks on Canadian Stocks I follow on the TSX or Venture Exchange, watching for a swing in the momentum upward. I keep a tight stop loss on all trades to minimize my risk... and allow the great stock trades to continue rising. These are not recommendations... merely entertainment. Please see the warning at the bottom of this page.

Canadian Stock of the Day Pick for July 7, 2011

Well, it seems it's best not to update these figures at 4 am like I did yesterday... I think my post overwrote a previous post (thus missing the July 6 date, even though the information was up to date).  And, I posted TBE.TO as an even, when in fact toward the end of the day, it triggered the stop loss.  So, I've made the adjustments below...





TDG.TO - chosen June 30th @ $8.30 and it closed today @ $8.63, a 4% gain.   I'm raising my stop loss to $8.52 since momentum is stalling here on the upside.

July 6th, I chose NKO.TO @ $64.29 with a stop loss @ $63.64 and it triggered the buy and sale on the same day for a 1% loss.

For July 7th, I'm choosing HXD.TO @ $8.90 with a stop loss @ $8.80, believing we may see the markets stall here and drop over the next 3-5 days.

UPDATE

So far, I have had four stocks up, one at even, and three losses.. for an overall profit of 5.5%.  Sadly, this is well back of the http://usstockoftheday.blogspot.com/ where it's up approximately 60% since inception one month ago.

If your interested in a more stable approach to trading, consider the weekly model at http://investinthemarkets.com where recent profits on the top three stocks are approximately 18%, 14%, and 12% in less than two weeks.











See you tomorrow!
