Look at ddd chart....

Buy only if u believe the story.... The stocks I am holding is free stocks.... Sold some stocks away and recovered the principal.... So from here on, up or down, it doesn't bother me anymore...

U need to be early in such stocks... Machiam like apple stocks....

There is a growth story.... But the valuations are way above earnings... So this is like the dot com stocks but this are brick and motar and the beauty in such companies are they are now doing consumer printers....

U see, even pm talk about 3d printing in the national rally....

If u want to play, dabble a bit hor....this kind of stocks is either u make or u break....

Dear mummy

don't try to get started

in my lifetime I had seen many of my close friends went bust

**teddybear** · 10-10-13, 10:14

Yes if you play with those speculative instruments like short/option/etc.

If you invest for long term.. yes potential is high...I supposed you are asking for how to buy and sell? transaction process? right?

Very few can be emotionless

we are all bound by fear greed hope and ignorance once we enter into the market

Brudder, we have to control that part to a certain extent.....

Look at properties today??? Worth going in????? Judgement call in play... With all the OB markers set up by govt, what are they trying to do??? Can u beat them??? If u bought a few, can u offload some and mitigate the risk??? If it goes up, at least part of it is still in the race rite???

Bro, for me stocks are kopi money... Keep my brain working and let me know what is happening around the world and it's impact on the various investments....

If I feel QE is going to taper, what would I do???? What will happen to the hot money???? What will happen to interest rate and it's effect on ROI on properties and prices???

Then we watch out for the eventuality of it happening... And get some out of the way in case....

I sold Botannia and downsized to waterview... Botannia went up but so did waterview... I used the proceeds of Botannia to do downpayment of 40% on waterview and I still had cash coming back to me... At 40% down, what is the risk to me on waterview??? My rental can cover the installment leh.... Just an example.... I don't always catch it rite, but I minimise my risk... And like u, when people are scared, I hoot.... But u look at citi, I hoot @ $20... Kanna black eye... Hahahaha... Lucky I hoot again at 1.50... (this is pure luck)... The key is to get 70-80% rite on your own... Rather than rely on someone to make the decision for u... At least u home your skills...

Even warren did not buy GS @ the lowest point... But he definitely got a good deal from the preferential shares.... He has that capability because of his wealth and name...

Cheers bro

Brother chestnut

Remember my post about selling off my portfolio towards end of the year or early next year before Bernanke step down ?

One of my main reason is to recall back all cash and wait for property

I cant be trading all my life....too taxing watching the screen all day

Having said that
It will be a Long Journey on property investment from Bull (present)to bear (when ?)and back to bull (when)

**Simi** · 10-10-13, 14:41

Signs to watch for

Stock market will be the 1st to go down followed by property market many months later and then into A LULL period.......

**Simi** · 10-10-13, 14:55

Property market from bear to bull

Stock market will move up at least 6month ahead of the property market

Brother

thanks and really really appreciates

will read after market close...hectic day today

US market...probably one more leg DOWN before up (corrective structure seems like not complete, like a picture of a dog without its tail

)

so do not be carried away if tonight goes up again

just my view

**star** · 10-10-13, 20:25

Market rewards the brave minority.

if you had bought last night, HLF and LDK

do not be greedy (one of the emotion)

can ride but also be prepared to take profits

S&P500 level to watch out for is 1675
if can break this resistance and move up convincingly then
likely the last leg down be truncated

But with the political issues not settled yet...I have my doubt as the bears will take this opportunity of a rebound to short down the market (excuse to sell)

just my humble analysis and opinion

Congratulations to you Brave Heart !!!

**Simi** · 11-10-13, 09:51

Unbelievable !!

Biggest 1 day gain this year

99% correction is over and if this is the starting of the new Rally structure forming then we will see NEW HIGH towards end of the year or early next year targeting 1760 ~ 1780

Still early days but at least we are back on track now

to the Bulls

http://www.cnbc.com/id/101103889?__s...phoria+won%27t

The corp results wont be sweet....

There will still be turbulence... US is still not out of the woods... Which is good for long term investors...

You damn champion....

In stock portfolio you need to classify into two types

1. Short term (speculation type)
2. Long term horizon

I mainly do no 2.....

Hahahahahaha

I am a very patient man.... I can hold on to my 1st investment property for 19 years....

The past tenants have already paid for my unit at Anchorage......

**star** · 11-10-13, 10:47

Month of November and december will see stock market rally. US ppl will buy stocks to have tax break.

I have a habit of selling after debt ceiling is raised. Since if good news are out alot will start to buy in. I will sell.

**star** · 16-10-13, 22:42

Predict market will drop after ceiling is raised today.

Sis, I think for u, get out when u make money and go in when there is carnage....

Sounds good....

The results (profits) cannot catch up with prices .... So yes, u will see a correction again shortly

That's who the market functions..... So there will be opportunities....
