Stock Trades

The past few weeks I've been trying to do short term trades in one of our IRA accounts to see how well I can pick them. The benefit of course for doing this in our IRA is not worrying about capital gains and losses. So far the results have been great:

GOOG:
Bought 3/27 10 shares @ $366.24
Sold 4/4 10 shares @ $389.13
Gain 5.8%

FRG:
Bought 4/4 800 shares @ $4.839
Sold 4/11 800 shares @ $6.01
Gain 22.5 %

Current play is:
PEIX:
Bought 4/12 178 shares @ $27.25
Today if sold at $29.25 gain of 7% but hoping PEIX goes a little higher. Plus I have to wait for funds to settle before selling.
