Why want to take profit on shorts, just short more and leave them open to enjoy better returns,since you have waited so long for such an opportunity. hmm.gif

You are right.

But if it is create more jobs, both must co operate lah.

Basically, that is what the voters want , JOBS and MORE JOBS.

If they want to fight, then let them fight in the boxing ring lah.

The winner would then decide.

Otherwise, the whole world suffers too.

I think China would cut down the trade imbalance by increasing the imports from US.

In a way, the bulldozing way of Obama may work to certain extent.

A direct approach.

I mean he still gets what he wants. though not completely. China still has to give face to US no matter how.

When you drink water, do not forget the source of the water comes from, i.e their wealth comes fr US. That is what they say. Hope they preach what they think and say.

Sadly , the reports just cover the " surface " of the meeting.

The way I see it.

FED may not be printing so much money afterall. Words always louder than actions.

Is there any records to trace back ?

No one cheers for this one hmm.gif

Consumer Sentiment in U.S. Probably Rose in November

I hope you Do not mind if to share with us why you prefer stocks already high up in the sky ? Is it buy high and sell higher ?

Or just candidates for shorting ? but do not seem inline with the following statement

" this is a good time to scan & look for good cheap stocks to add to watchlist cool2.gif tat is y i prefer to hold better fa stocks & longer expiry call options, to ride any unforseen storms. atml need to come down to 7.5 drool.gif"


I am a FA but start to learn more about charting from Sifu like.

I do come across several companies in the process of being acquired in Msia or in the high stage of transforming may indicate these types of charts.

How do TA people know in the first place without accessing to the so called " leaked info " then.

Hope to learn more from Sifu like you, notworthy.gif

Thanks

got so many shares in klse, not only muhibah went up. what u all recommend, i just cross check with 'volume'
no problem sharing, but u need to do ur own homework for further understanding  wink.gif since my england no good
here is an article for reading pressure, anything, feel free to ask

[attachmentid=1882777]

note : there r funds set aside on forever holding, long term stocks & etc. everyone got own allocation style  icon_rolleyes.gif
now for gambling funds allocation itself, 20% new high, 20% ultra new high, 30% swing trade, 30% options

refer http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1476526/+740 ,Post #751 on example of lph
when it first reach new high at $3, I have no idea whether it go higher, drop or will sideway, enter at $2.85
the next new high at $3.2 is for ultra risky entry (refer reading attachment above)
never know when stocks goes down, but if fa strong, the stock wil drop to a nice support level, then swing trade

the whole gambling objective is to ride roket stocks. eg lvs & frens  icon_rolleyes.gif needs simple fa as fuel, forward pe>10

Thanks.

Sometimes FA may be too late to spot the good stocks because these stocks are still in the process of transforming, so the published results are just so so only. So it is your belief that is more important to me.

Timecom- bought Timecom at 50sen, some did, largely ignored. Suspended for likely corporate takeover.

Kencana- bought l at rm 1.50 and sold off , bought some again rm 1.80. sold all. Transforming story.

P & O - Bought at 75sen pending corporate takeover, up by 100% in 1 month or so.

Muhibbah - Bought some at rm 1.01 and sold. Re buy again. only time will tell. With current contracts of 3B for 3 years, the future is there. More contracts to come from LRT/MRT. Likely to be taken over by another company. Transforming/rumours

China gives way to Obama " China pledges reform at APEC"

Hu, taking the podium shortly after Obama, told the business forum China wanted to expand domestic demand growth and remained committed to reforming its exchange rate “on the basis of retaining initiative, controllability and gradualness”.

“China will continue making encouraging a balanced international balance of payments an important task in ensuring macro-economic stability,” Hu said.

Obama should collect some Chinese orders on the way home hmm.gif

1 - if its break higher on volume, means ppl over-drive it higher before sell it off. that is what being called as MOMENTUM.  brows.gif

since u alredi ask on klse, i'll just answer this query here b4 zamans98 file another complaint  brows.gif
opinion is via charts & simple fa performance check, presume u did deeper basic checking liao, not a recomendation buy, sell or hold  nod.gif

timecom volume is actively traded after apr2010, resistance is $0.8.0 & $1.30, to hang on or not depends on its fa  flex.gif fa seems goodie too

[attachmentid=1884225]

kencana volume is actively traded after apr2010, also its fa is goodie, everyone got own target to sell, got profit better than loss    hmm.gif
$1.80 is resistance level, but if volume & fa goodie, resistance means nothing, looks like gonna pullback, imo seems good for holding

[attachmentid=1884220]

p&o, there a mini bump in volume 10k around may2010 & the 2 weeks b4 the huge 60k which make price jump to $1.09
by then, the news must hav been pubic knowledge. its fa so-so la, not my type, everyone got their own interpretation of fa
normally, when got 3 to 4 long white candle, we take profit liao, dun be greedy  wink.gif  unless got super good news  (refer muhibah chart, pullbacking)

[attachmentid=1884217]  [attachmentid=1884219]

have a nice weekend & go have a read on reminiscence of a stock operator by edwin le fevre  laugh.gif

Thanks for all the sharings notworthy.gif

BTW, 3 of them Timecom, Kencana and Muhibbah shared some similar patterns- injected with quality assets/business, turnaround, and may start to invite some buyers to buy some stakes. IF plan A failed, then plan B is still there , they are growing into a better company.

I guess GOP and Obama would compromise on some tax incentives for American Corporates to invest more ( like 100% tax claim for capital expenditures in first year )

GOP is no more a fan sitter this time, knowing the voters have high expectations on them.

No more opposing for the sake of being the opposition party.

And these tax incentives were popular in Bush time.

Of course, the sooner would be better for the employment.

Just my view.

Well, can always sell at good price, and buy back cheaper , and still be the co owner of the business.

This is what I learn from another forum last month.


Investing is an evolution on daily basis , as to take into account of impact of Internet on Egypt etc

I am semi-retired so I do spend a fair bit of time reading and researching stocks, bonds, index funds, REITs, properties and other asset classes.  I utilize trading strategies revolving around two option approaches and day trades during earnings season to augment my returns but do NOT replace my overall strategy of value investing, asset class diversification, cost averaging and portfolio rebalancing.  In my opinion, any investor (amateur or professional) with NET returns of 15% or more annually for a period of 5 years or more is doing a might fine job for his or her net worth.

I prefer to go for a 50% return for a year than a 15% a year for the next 5 years ( just focus on 1 year only )

Not in Dow though, and just my way.

I do not think practically Dow would behave in the same old fashion.

Dow is still in ICU with super low interest rate leh, and hanging on to QE2 or 3 is coming hmm.gif

Joke of the world though.
