Lesson learnt when FIFO on Vicom Limited

Vicom announced its Q2 result on 10 Aug 2016.
The result was announced after market closed and the share price closed at $5.91.
As expected, revenue dropped.
Unexpected is dividend also dropped.

I had added 2,700 shares of Vicom @ $5.75 in 30th Jun for FIFO purposes - Read here
Given that a lower dividend ($0.08) was declared, I am thinking the share price might drop when market open tomorrow.
Therefore, I went to place a sell order of 2,700 shares @ $5.88 (Target profit $0.13 instead of the dividend $0.08).

On 11 Aug morning, only 300 shares was done @ $5.88, pending 2,400 shares to be sold. I forgotten that Vicom usual daily volume was not high in the first place. Therefore I started to panic as I do not want to pay nearly $30 for the broker fees just for 300 shares. I went in to adjust my sell price 2 times in order to ensure all my 2,700 shares can be done by today. In the end, my average sell price was $5.83 (Profit $0.08/shares) and I accounted for 1/4 of the total Vicom volume for that day.

To FIFO, one have to note on the daily volume too.

Lesson learnt.

Added: DBS

Added 1600 shares of DBS today at $15.08.
Thats almost empty out my warchest.

Buying of DBS today is for FIFO (Fast In Fast Out), not for holding long term.

Reasons for buying:
1) DBS will be announcing Q2 result on 8th Aug. Expecting 30-32cents of dividend
2) DBS PB at 0.90 only (OCBC PB at 1.00 while UOB PB at 0.93)
3) DBS was at $16 range between 15th - 27th Jul.
4) Price had drop around 6+% from 27th Jul to today.
5) Comfortable at low $15 price range since DBS CEO purchase their shares at $13.88 this year.
6) If price continue to fall further, will just hold this and wait for rebounce as DBS is a solid blue chip too.
