Double A Penny - Step 20 - The Eagle Has Landed

How To Double Your Way To A Million In 28 StepsDTAMP - Double To A Million Plan Blog

I made the first trade of 2010 and it was mildly successful.

It could have been a lot better but I just could not wait and did not follow my plan to hold longer term.

I had been watching this Stock for awhile: Eagle Bulk Shipping Inc.(NasdaqGS: EGLE)

The stock has been swinging up and down and looked promising for a DTAMP trade. I had been waiting for it to drop to around $4.50 although I wasn't sure it would get down there.

On January 4th, 2010 the stock popped up a little and I decided to jump in. I got it at $5.25, which was higher than I really wanted it, but I had a feeling it was going to keep going at that point.

I was planning on holding it until it got up into the $6.50 - $6.75 range. But I just couldn't do it. I sold it off at $5.54 instead.

The next day it kept going up hitting a high of $5.89. :-(

A profit of $196.01 is not bad for DTAMP.

DTAMP Equities Plan Report:

01/04/10 - Buy - 738 shares of EGLE @ $5.25 p/s - Total $3874.50
01/07/10 - Sold - 738 shares of EGLE @ $5.54 p/s - Total $4088.52Total ($214.02) - ($18.01) Fees = ($196.01)Net Gain of (+5.04732)% in the Amount of ($196.01)

I finally made it over the $4000.00 mark for the first time.

Step 21 is so close I can almost taste it.

My definition of OptoMystic is: ...One who has the ability to look into and vaguely see the murky future of the upcoming year, whilst holding a position of believing in a favorable outcome, yet still being rather pessimistic about it.

I must confess to a strong prejudice against 2009. It was one of the worst years of my life. Painful, tragic, traumatizing, tormenting and torturous, and those were it's good points.

I have learned through the years, to stop believing that when a New Year arrived, it was going to magically make life terrific and somehow actually be a better year than the year before.

OK, well maybe I haven't actually stopped believing it, but I am trying.

I came into 2010 still hoping that, at least, this year would not be as bad as 2009. But I thought that about 2008, 2007, 2006 and so on. Each year, amazingly, actually got worse.

2009 was the year of "Loss". I lost many people that had been a part of my life for quite awhile, I lost income, money, relationships, you name it. It is not that I haven't had losses in the past but they seemed to be further apart over time. The last seven months was the equivalent in losses for like a 14 year span.

So anyway, I still secretly hoped that 2010 would be better. But on January 2nd, something horrible happened. After a four year span of time without major incident, my computer got something nasty, something insidious and it managed to basically ruin my computer set up.

I have spent 3 days trying to get the computer rebuilt at least to a point of usability. But despite saving the files, which somehow turned out to just be a bunch of empty directories, I lost the last three years of emails and my address book.

So I do not have any records of DTAMP, my personal life, blogging info, and email addresses of anything or anyone that I have been working on for almost all of DTAMP's life span.

They are all gone...poof! The Loss will have unforseen consequences, no doubt.

So if you never hear from me it is because I can't find you anymore.

If the party for the two advertisements above (FreddieRick.com and CashnetUSA) would contact me so I can get your email address that would be appreciated. The chances that this post is actually read by the required parties is very low, even being OptoMystic about it.

I hope this all is not a prelude as to what 2010 will turn out to be.
