+$2,800 overnight hold
(filled for addl 2k shares yest. btw but would have taken gain at 2k on 4k shares as well)
when life hand lemons..take em. Will wait for reentry or take and go to next.
ps these plays of course have some risk at lowest point intraday yest was down 6k but there will always be swings even on almost certain cash mergers. easier to ignore those swings tho if certainty high. |

To: robert b furman who wrote (13243) | 7/10/2019 10:31:41 AM | From: Robert O | | | Thx Bob, this thread strives for real time (at least for all my trades they are) so use the date on both posts: 10/29/18 to 7/9/19 so ~8 months
12% return (or 17% 'annualized')
I have a large s-t capital loss from old days to wipe out so for me these type of high certainty trades with effectively no taxable gain add juice to the stated returns. It's helped chop that loss down to size but still going. |
