White Christmas Portfolio Wrap-Up

Posted on the 24 December 2011 by Phil's Stock World @philstockworld

I know it’s tacky to give cash but, as we closed our original, virtual $25,000 Portfolio early on October 20th and we were miles ahead of our $100,000 goal, we decided to do this bonus portfolio starting with a fresh virtual $15,000 set aside of our $130,000 – risking 1/2 of the excess profits in an attempt to make 60% in two months.  

We started that Monday, the 24th of October with our GNW spread (which I also discussed on TV that day) and that Friday we put up the official post where, I will remind you, our stated goal was to make a little bonus money for the holidays AND to share some of that money with a worthy cause.  I want to thank everyone who chose to donate to the NYC Food Bank, we got some really spectacular donations from some of you and I really appreciate it and I hope you have all gotten into the holiday spirit and helped to support those in need this season – it’s much appreciated and I thank you.

Just as importantly, I very much hope you were able to learn something following this portfolio.  We never put much capital at risk, we took quick profits off the table and we worked our way out of most of our losses through rolling and adjusting – letting the trading range do most of the hard work.  

It did in fact, work very well!  

IN PROGRESS
