I’ll teach ya how to fish: GSVC post mortem

After today’s rally, I am sitting here with a watch list of stocks to buy that was empty just the day before.

I know when I was learning most of what I know, (I still am daily) it wasn’t following others into trades that helped me most, it was looking back at a pattern so I could identify it the next time it happened.

So let’s go over GSV Capital Corp (GSVC)

(side note: I am impressed by this companies website. It looks clean, professional and to the point. Something that you would expect for such an investment company, but I might be easily amused.)

Anyway, I assume if you are in GSVC, you are not a “dividend” type investor. Down moves like today are generally something you would like to side step.

Below I’ve highlighted some signs the stock gave off letting us know that something was not right and a chance where share holders had to get out before the intraday collapse.

Next is the daily chart. If this stock is the real deal, its future could look something like this and still look like a legit momo stock.

When planning entries, I like to try and envision what will happen tomorrow. After looking at thousands of charts, you get a sense of what is likely and what isn’t.

A test of the lows or a lower low to establish a bottom is something that I could see happening in the next few days.

So is technical analysis infallible?

Of course not, as we can see in the last chart, there were times in the past month where weak hands would of got shaken out early.

However, that was pretty much a textbook breakdown and if you learn to catch the unmistakable and “ominous” presence of a stock when it starts to flag after a drop, you might be able to save yourself some coin.

    Davel is a fucking moron. The only reason why it dropped is because of the offering. YOU HAVE NO EDGE DAVEL.

    Fuck off.

    What a fucking idiot. The firm does an offering and the twit thinks the drop in price is some huge bearish move signalling direction. That’s the problem with a free society. Any moron can get on the web buy a charting service and then offer advice about shit he knows nothing about.

    Anyway, whatever. Go2’s analysis of GSVC is great, imo. You’ve got to look ahead an try to expect what will happen, and you have to have the discipline and trust in yourself and your skills to buy when it DOES happen. Or, just place limit orders and wait it out. Anyway. Good stuff Go2.
