I added another block to $UA, which is now a top holding in terms of size.
I also ordered multiple pairs of Curry 2’s for the boys for Christmas. Top of their lists.

OA… Are Dec 15 options ok with UA or go to Jan?
The longer you can throw here the better.
I may have the old Curry’s. They’re nice… also, one of the only bball shoes that fits a wide foot.
OA, quick question for you. My focus and strength is more on long-term investing (hence, why I look to you, RC, and the other guys on iBC for trading advice). With that said, outside of making UA your largest position and selling FNMA, have you added and/or trimmed to your long-term holdings since your last post in mid August? Thanks in advance.
I haven’t but have been thinking of another rebalance.
I am now 95% invested in my LT account and am somewhere between 15-20 positions.
Thanks for response OA. Like I said, I want to get a sense of what and how others manage their LT/IRA (traditional and Roth) accounts, and then do some follow up posts on the general strategy and framework. I appreciate the insight.
Most of my positions are LT as well, and while I’m not someone to necessarily listen to, my holdings are below:
FB, UA, LC, SBUX, FSLR, WFM, SCHW, V, VA, SHAK, STZ
I always look forward to the occasional post on the LT side of things from OA well.
Thanks for the input Martin. No need to put that disclaimer to not listen. I mean, we’re all here to share ideas. The ones that throw troll crap and never produce nor make productive calls/suggestions are the one’s who we should tone out. You’ve got a solid selection, and it helps me look at the risk profile and tolerance a typical reader on iBC has. I’m long FB and SBUX too, and SHAK in my actively traded account. I’ve been stalking V for a while as well.
OA,
I’m now quite positive from holding QURE from 18.70. However, each time it has gotten up into the high 20’s once over 21 in the last couple of weeks, it has fallen back. So is there a best strategy here? Try to hold for a breakout over 21.40 or take profit around 21?
What was your original target?
It was 20.78, but Now I’m thinking lets see if it goes this time. I had a profit once before and it went negative. Now I’m back well in the green. So should I gamble for a break out or not. That’s my dilemma.
Bump up your stop so that its really not a big risk on your part.
Thanks!
he doesnt like the iron ones? – got some in my cart as we speak..$129
TWTR doesn’t want to break 25.5….yet
You treating yourself to a tesla this Christmas?
Next Christmas. Once I get back to ATH’s in the account, I’ll treat myself.
GDX, KMI, & WYNN are hot and OB on 10 day hourly. WYNN & KMI have the 200 period MA on said charts looming above & trending down. GDX has already captured it’s 200 period & is poised for upside.
Oh yeah, and what was I thinking ignoring the O/S signals in Athleisure wear last Tuesday!
Well done on UA, OA. I so wanna type that I almost pulled the trigger on SKX ….. oh shit …. I just did!
Type it, that is ….
The stars are all aligned for CYBR
