Let's continue the previous discussion.
When is the 4th sale, the 5th sale, and is there a pattern here?
After the last sale, we had a value of $13,310 at $31.62, and 421 shares. If we sell 1/4 of the share again, this would be 421 x .75 = 315 shares. The value needs to grow 10% or $13,310 x 1.1 = $14,641. The stock price would be $14,641/315 = $46.48. Or we could say a 365% incrrease in price.
In summary the first four sales of 1/4 position, need to be at: 47%, 115%, 216%, and 365%.
Let's figure on the fifth sale. Value increasing 10% means 1.1 x $14,641 = $16,105.10. Number of shares = 315 x .75 = 236 shares. Share price = $16,105.10/236= $68.24. Or a 582% increase before the fifth sale.
Thus, the first five sales will be, in the future at 47%, 115%, 216%, 365%, and 582% increases in stock price. We can calculate the rest another time if it is indicated. This will allow for a slower proces of pealing off stock shares at appreciation points, and allow for the individual positions to grow!
