ONTX purchase
I purchased a 1% in my account of ONTX. Another one I found on the NASDAQ IPO performance site that I have made most of my purchases from in the past few years. I usually look for ones that are down over the 6 month, but look like they have hit bottom and have an innovative company with potential.
Double down on RALY
I'm still not sure about RALY and bought earlier in the IPO process than I usually do. I've used their software and like it so I bought in, but should have waited. It's a long term hold so I bought more to drop my cost basis.
Double down on SSNI
I really like SSNI and will hold it for longer term. It went down so I bought more.

BCOR - Sold
I made a lot in BCOR, but based on some odd news items and my own investigation I decided to sell out of it. It's probably still a good buy, but there is a cloud in my opinion.

SSNI - Silver Spring Networks - Second purchase
SSNI went down a lot since I purchased it. It was down 20% at one point and I contemplated selling it, but decided to purchase more since it fits my strategy of buying recent IPOs that have gone down and seem to be recovering.
Price 12.79
An additional 2% of my holdings, bring my total SSNI holdings to 3%.

TSLA - Tesla Motors - Purchase
I purchased TSLA motors purely on the leadership of Elon Musk. I wish I could invest in Space X, but this is a token to help with that and I do believe he has a knack for startups. This one will be big. I usually avoid the hype stocks, but this one recently dropped some so I thought I would get in.
