I've banked about $60k in my GXY forays. Could have been $90k-ish but I failed to set a stop in August when I went away on FIFO. Otherwise, don't know how to short, and I don't do leverage.
Felt like the right time to leave. Sector seems to have lost it's edge. And the manipulation is too diabolical - holding has begun to feel more like gambling than trading. I can't predict the intentions of the unseen manipulative forces so for that reason I decided it's best to sit back and watch for a while - without any capital attachment.
In the meantime i'm going back to safe, easy, predictable blue chip plays.
