Monday's Small Lots

I bought shares in five stocks under my small lots strategy. The trades were timed to coincide with earnings announcements.

sym	shares	entry date	exit date	entry price per share	exit price per share	result $	result %	annual rate	days held	tactic
REI	5	8/8/2016		9.43						earns
RSPP	2	8/8/2016		39.04						earns
EVEP	20	8/8/2016		2.52						earns
PKY	3	8/8/2016		17.10						earns
TESO	7	8/8/2016		7.39						earns

A sixth symbol on my agenda, AER, isn't listed by my no-fees broker, Robinhood Financial, and so I was unable to place a trade.

I exited three positions whose near term trends and turned bearish.
