Week of 2012 FE 15

IWM rose 1.2% yet again this week, to its highest value ever yet again, while my account fell by 0.6% due to the declining price of gold.  The loss-floor is unchanged at +0.6%.

I didn’t feel like doing daily updates on Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday, because nothing happened.

End of week allocations:

Daily % gain size │ Max loss Sym  Buy │  Fri  Mon  Tue  Wed  Thu  Fri │ Beg   End   IAU  AU14 │ +0.7  18  +0.5  17  +0.1  17  │ +0.1 +0.1 IWM │ +10.0     +9.9                 +11.2     │ me │ +1.1 +0.9 +0.5 │ floor │ +0.6 +0.6 +0.6 │

IAU: Gold fell below my stop price on Friday, but Schwab didn’t sell because my stop-order had expired on January 8th!  Need to decide next week whether to sell it manually.

me: Account balance is below stop-floor because the stop-order didn’t execute.

No activity this week.  Still haven’t fixed that SRTY bug when the ETF makes a new low followed by a “buy” signal later the same day.
