Playing & Trading Strategy

When Stocks shoot up after IPO and then crash.

Posted by: MitchC on Jan 18, 16:35

        It appears to me that many times, especially with the more expemsive stocks, $50 and up, and the blockbuster, $100 plus stocks, that a stock will often shoot up $20 in tprice after IPO then crash after a time. 

 

         Does it seem to make sense to buy the stock, sell it when it goes up $10 to $15, wait for it to go down, and then buy it again to hold on to it.>?  Or, should one ride it out. 

 

            I did this with Gambit.  I bought a lot of it when it IPO'ed, then told it off in the 70s, hoping it will go down in price, and bounce down from its big shoot up, so I can buy it again, and then hold on to it long term.

 

       Does this seem like a good strategy?  what do others do?
