PennyFarmer.com ~ Planting the Seeds of Education and Growing My Pennies

Welcome to my blog!

I've worn many hats during my entrepreneurial journey, including writing and creating whiteboard videos, marketing, investor relations (Blurbeo), owning and managing my own vapor pen brand (TouchESubject), servicing the real estate market and other clients as the CEO of Puget Sound Field Inspections, founded CLV Investments LLC, and currently holding a position with Byte Me LLC as a Digital Marketing Consultant.

This blog was originally started as a way for me to track my progress in trading stocks, but it's has since morphed into much more. I now use it as a window into what I'm doing to reach my goal of financial freedom. You're going to see what I'm doing to create multiple streams of income, articles and interviews that are business related or featuring other entrepreneurs, and most importantly you're going to get to know me and hopefully I can inspire you to pursue your own dreams

I'm a very driven individual with a passion for customer service and improving our communities.

Please feel free to connect. I'd love to do business with you.

Updates on Paper Trades, Closed 2 $TWI $BBOX

I thought I'd post an update on this week's paper trades. I ended up closing two of the trades, $TWI and $BBOX. $GRPN is still a swing but honestly I may exit tomorrow if the decline is looking like more than just a pullback.

I may pick a couple more to paper trade for tomorrow to Friday.

$GRPN = Open

$BBOX = -2.54% loss of $29

$TWI = 16.9% gain of $60

Please feel free to comment on my screenshot notes. Happy Trading!

Groupon Inc - GRPN Stock Chart Technical Analysis for 02-16-16

Another look at the chart for $GRPN. I didn't mention the 200ema in my charts but it makes sense. Will be a good thing if it pushes past the 200ema and we get some more uptrending.

This Week's Paper Trades $GRPN $TWI $BBOX

This week's paper trades are all momo swings, $GRPN, $TWI, $BBOX.

I'm looking to hold for a day or so but not longer than Friday.

Week 02-09 to 02-12 Paper Trades: $GROW, $EXK, $DRD

I wanted to post some screenshots of the paper trades from last week. I figure it will help with my learning process as well as maybe help someone else if they happen to see it. As always, please feel free to comment and tell me if I'm missing something or wrong about something.

$DRD = Loss of about $68

$EXK = Loss of about $20

$GROW = Gain of about $28

Paper Trading Log, $DRD, $EXK, and $GROW

Using my Thinkorswim program I entered three paper trades for this week to test out a swing strategy and to work on reading charts.

Two of the three saw red today, but not a big surprise considering the market right now. The charts still look good for a swing of a couple days or maybe even a week... though I don't plan on holding over the weekends.

Here are some screenshots with notes. Please feel free to comment and correct me if I'm off on these or if you have suggestions.

Getting Back in the Swing of Things

It's been a while... life and money ugh.

I'm still holding a couple of bags because once again I failed to follow my own rules. So as punishment I'm only allowing myself to paper trade for a while.

With that said, my paper trades for this week are $GROW, $EXK, and $DRD. I'm also keeping an eye on $AUY and $GRAM.

Keeping with my rules I'd be entering the momo play on Tuesday and only doing one play. My money is on $DRD for a swing of 1 to 3 days, out by Friday for sure.

Daily Review, Trading Around Thanksgiving & The Best Stock For Tomorrow

Tim always gets me excited to keep learning, haha. Sorry I haven't posted much lately. I've been really focused on paper trading and learning more about the MACD indicators. I've been paper trading futures on Think or Swim (TOS) and so far I've made 1k in a week. Not too bad I think.

I'll post more about my real trades in the near future.

Happy Thanksgiving!!!
