This was one of my longest big winners on the basis of a long-term hold. This stock rode the 50 DMA and 200 DMA like a champ. It has only recently closed below the 200 DMA after almost two years of a strong rally. This was an easy stock to hold as it gave very few scary moments and gave few “you must take profits on this move now” before finally ending its run. This was not a huge holding but it was an important holding as it was a great stock during a market that was on its last legs. late 2006 to now in 2008 has been a very tough time to find max green beauty stocks that work. Not only that CANSLIM stocks are not working either. So the fact that this stock did so well for so long was very good for investors who know how to hold stocks for the big gains. If you held this stock from the breakout to the top, you were able to take away a 520% gain in one year and ten months.

KNOL 1-12-06 to 5-4-07

July 31, 2008 | Leave a Comment

KNOL was an easy long to take and an even easier long to hold. While I did load up a bit it was no where near the size of the other winners like HRZ or PTT. Still this was clearly a massive winner and it was just another stock that has helped me make a great career out of trading pretty green charts. I wish I would have bought a lot more when I did and would have held the whole amount till the end because this stock went on to produce a 393% gain in a little under 16 months. This was a monster stock.

MAMA (now CNIC) 12-8-06 to 12-21-06

May 19, 2008 | Leave a Comment

MAMA was a quick hit but a HUGE hit. Those that were with me at InvestorsParadise should remember this stock real well as when it showed up I brought it to everyone’s attention. I did not know the stock was going to blastoff in two days and produce an IMMEDIATE 100% gain. But that is what this stock did and when the stock topped, I did think there was more to come as a huge turnaround was more than likely to occur. However, that did not happen, and in a span of nine days, MAMA produced a HUGE 228% gain. Thebure was no doubt about this being a Monster Stock. This rarely happens and I do not expect to get too many more like this in my lifetime.

PTT (now VCGH) 9-26-06/11-16-07/11-17-06/11-21-07 to 2-23-07

PTT was a VERY BIG winner but the very first buy was not the biggest purchase. That was just a test position. The BIG purchases came from 11-16 to 11-23 as the stock started moving on massive volume, with BOP going max green, off a base with no volume. The pattern was very tight and fundamentals were starting to really pick up steam back then. From the very first purchase to the top, PTT made an impressive 440% in a short five months. The big purchases, from the perfect setup, produced anywhere between 290% and 405% in a very short three months and one week. My only regret is that I did not LOAD UP the boat and did not back the truck up on this beautiful and perfect monster stock setup. It should be obvious why I did not. A sub-$3 stock is not a stock I feel comfortable making a HUGE position after a FOUR YEAR BULL MARKET. I sold a lot of the stock on 1-11-07 before the top with a solid 247% gain in a little under two months. This was a very quick Monster Stock but this exactly how I wished every single one would work.

HRZ 9-27-06 to 7-19-07

HRZ was an easy stock to LOAD UP as it bounced right off the 50 DMA, broke out to a new recent high on very strong volume and max green BOP that was max green during the very tight base around the 50 DMA. There was only one buy but I made it count as a large market order and a missed limit turned into a market order turned this stock into my biggest long of 2006. From the big buy to the first sell which was based off max green BOP turning away from the max green territory (the next day not pictured) gave a wonderful 67% gain in one month and three weeks. This was considered a Monster Stock despite the less than 100% return because it was such an easy stock to LOAD UP, the entry was perfect, and the chart is just stunning with its perfect beauty. However, it did return a full 100% as it gained 108% in six months when I made my second big sell and returned 126% in nine months and three weeks by the final top. I did not get the exact top but still took 110% at my final sell.
