Back to Basics: Buy GE

Our strategy today was to buy GE or SRS based on pre-market futures data this morning. We end up buying GE on positive data. It was an up and down day but we ended day in positive return. I think 3% return has been working well for me, however, high comission rate and ROI is not satisfactory. Moreover, with market volatility it almost feels like day trading. I work full time and I do not think day trading is good for my work.

3% Return Strategy:
- Buy a stock at weakness or strength
- Sell after 3% price increase, or 6% price drop
