[Rain Man]

In total, I've executed this system with 38 stocks. My outcomes are:

Fully executed (meaning that I bought, made 20%, and pulled out the original, leaving only the profits):

7 stocks - Less than the original purchase price (-70%, -10%, -5%, -20%, -1%, -35%, -10%)

2 stocks - Above the original purchase price, but by less than 20%

12 stocks - Continued growing above and beyond the 20% (30%, 50%, 25%, 200%, 470%, 25%, 100%, 110%, 125%, 40%, 30%, 70%)

I think my "sowing seeds strategy has worked here. While I've had a few that tanked, I've also been riding some really good winners.


Not fully executed (meaning I bought the stock, but it hasn't appreciated by 20% yet)

8 stocks - Less than the purchase price
4 stocks - Above the purchase price, but by less than 20%

The eight dogs are hurting me. These are stocks that I bought and immediately lost money on. I've been waiting on them to recover, but several of them were stocks I bought before the crash and they just didn't recover over the past couple of years.

In a few instances, I've doubled down and bought more stock if I see an opportunity. This is where watching my list has paid off:


1 stock - Less than the purchase price
0 stocks - Above the purchase price, but by less than 20%
4 stocks - Above the purchase price by more than 20% (330%, 350%, 50%, 30%)
