Dear Success Trading Group Member:

We have obviously been trading very cautiously since the first of the year. With only 2 trades in January and 1 trade (on our Under $15 Trade Table in February). As our long-term Members know, we like to average 4 trades per month. The silver lining to our trades this year is that we have been able to avoid stepping in and taking a significant negative hit to a new position with the current volatile market. We do have stocks that we have been watching for quite some time that are now at or even below our target buy price. And, it is tempting to step in and pick these up. Yet, we have to be careful (maybe more careful than we really like). But the end game for the Success Trading Group service is to be nimble and take small quick hits, and we try to keep that in focus and in the forefront.

The second silver lining (yes, there are two!) is that the trades we entered in January scored 6% gain and a 5% gain. While most of our trades are in the 1.5% to 3% range, thus one could argue that our January was basically on par with our target results of 4 trades per month. Ok, a little bit weak of an argument and not quite the best silver lining, but it is definitely better than being in a couple more positions that are underwater right now.

Every year there seems to be pockets of time when it simply is best to be on the sidelines rather than fighting the tape. As a service that generates its revenue by picking stocks it is times like this that we are in bit of a quagmire. We would like to get a quality stock pick or two out to you each week, however, quality is our number one focus. Not quantity. Our long-term members have seen us write on this topic every year since we brought our service out to the public. But it is worth repeating, especially for the new members. It is simply better to be patient and wait for the timing where we have a better chance of making our trades turn profitably over a short-term. That is our goal: short-term trades. You know by now that we try to focus on stocks that we can hold for a longer-term if we aren't successful in making a short-term trade. In fact, we will often average down such positions. We don't use stop-losses as our safety net is the quality stock.

So, let's not get too concerned. The landscape will change. We've offer our Success Trading Group service stock picks to the public for about 330 weeks and we have entered 352 trades on our Main Trade Table. In each year we have had spots where we have had several consecutive weeks without a new trade. Then, there a periods where we make many trades. We simply try to enter our trades when the opportunities appear to be favorable.

Have a great weekend and thank you for subscribing!

Sincerely,

Eric Aafedt
Success Trading Group
