My virtual warrant portfolio is looking good today with good gains coming from my Man Group (SB80) call which is up 31% and Rolls-Royce (SB90) call which is up 19% since they were bought last week, and Vodafone (SC29) call which is up 13% since they were bought on Monday.
I'm now looking to take profits on the Man Group position, with a limit order in place to sell half (5,000 warrants) if the price nudges a little higher today.
It is also interesting that the Vodafone SC29 call was one of my losers earlier this week too, it was down 5.36% on Monday.
Overall my portfolio, which currently has 18 open positions, is only down 1%. I'm now planning to take this trial run up to the end of the month before I start to refine the entry and exit strategies, and then of course move to using real money.

It'll be interesting to see how well the predictions pan out.
I'm never sure if a news based trading approach would be able to help or not - by the time a story makes the news, will the pros already know about it and will the market already have moved to take it into account?
Good luck with your new blog (and becoming a TV guru!) - I'll check back again to see how you get on with trendpointers.

Interesting blog, keep posting! If you're interested, my blog here: Link has some interesting stuff. My last post is about a new investment tool here: Link that analyzes trends and coverage in the news to predict how market sectors will move. As far as I know they're the only place that does this. The results they report seem pretty impressive so I've gotten into it lately. Do you know of other services like this that are out there? I'd like to make a comparison.
