Sold 3000@1.01

Hold 2000

Profit: $195

Net Profit: $175

I still have 2000 shares which i intend to hold for a potential ride up. China Minzhong is announcing earnings next monday on 13/02/2012. Stop loss at 0.985.
If my stop is hit, i'll still profit another $80 and i already have $175 in my pocket. With a risk free trade, why not just let it run? This is one of the lessons i learnt in weath academy trader course. A method to protect your psychology and minimize risk.
I've adjusted my stop loss to 1.05 as this counter has rallied all the way to 1.08.
