The rounded bottom looks a bit like AA.
But if you would compare it to AA, there's a slight bit more positive factor in AA.
Ok, the coming quarter for AA should be poor but that should be discounted by the market already (unless the market thinks it wants to be disappointed by the poor earnings again. ).
Since the market is a forward discounting machine (as practised by many... ( wonder if anyone wants to argue on this)) , with the recent strengthening in ringgit vs the dollar, the market might factor this as a forward positive factor for the stock, which is why there is strentgh in the stock.

However, in Ben's case...
nothing clear and in fact the recent removal of some directors in the company only serves as more unknown factors in the stock.

Taking profit is ok but it should be taken correctly.
Do not, for one bad experience, embark on a wild taking profit just for taking profit sake.
Trading it correctly is more important.

Selling is just as hard as buying.
You need to learn to know when to sell for a profit correctly.
And you need to learn when to sell when you screw up on a purchase.
Of course, buying correctly does help significantly.

Simple maths.

There are 3 variables here.
And no matter how you adjust, almost always... losses must be kept at a minimal.

I dont know about you.. try to bet more amount and bet less counters. Only bet those that you have >70% confident winning ability. If you are not sure, or dont know refuse the bet. 

Stock tarding is like poker.. you don't have to bet at every hand you are dealt with, you can always choose to raise or fold.

Sorry but nothing to share. 

Share opinions, no problem. 

Actually, if you try to predict the short term movement for GP, I would be first to say that it's difficult.

However, the longer picture, it's not so difficult, it's doable.

Let's forget about the 605 exit.
It's past.

More recent one, I posted here on Friday saying that '495 would have been a good price'.
Let's see what happens..... hope I am left, right, top, bottom and behind also salah.   

Learning jor! 

Of course, I totally agree with the manipulation issue but isn't this what this exercise is all about?

I very rarely trade speculative counters and this GP is no exception but for the sake of the exercise, I had share it 'live' here that I thought 495 would be a good entry point.
That's my humble opinion.
Of course it could crash and my exit position, admitting that I screw the tradewould have been 485.
In fact, any stocks, good or bad, could also 'crash' after we buy.
That's a possibility.

Remember, I am one who do not trade short and I have publicly acknowledged that I am no 10 min trader..
I can't play that game because that's something I am not good at.
Why trade or shall I use the word GAMBLE on something I know I am not good at?

And regarding those who declare they make many rounds.
Congratulations to them.
Well done.
But I am certainly no many rounder and I have no intention to be one.

If you think being a many rounder is a good objective, all the best to you. 

C'est la vie. 
Things like this will happen and will continue to happen.

sometime it requires guts more than info...
even people give you info, you got no guts to buy in... same die 1....
market manipulation is normal in Bursa.. i don't feel anything....
without them, we don't even can see 1billion volume per day in Bursa... 

Well tapering should not be an unexpected issue since we know the QE cannot last forever and ever.

There's a saying, instead of focusing on the forest, it's much more productive to focus on the tree.

In the marketS, many things can happen.
It's impossible to predict all that would happen.
And even if could, it might not bring us the success.

Why? Sometimes in a rising market, many stocks will rise.
But if we ride the wrong horse, we won't get anywhere.

Think reverse.
Look at some of the 'anti gravity' stocks.
They seem to go up always and ever.
Why?

Look at the impact of the recent taper fears.
Did it hurt the stocks at all?
Or did these stocks actually grew stronger since then?

Conclusion?

Try to hold less stocks... 
Learn what makes a stock an anti gravity stock.
Learn how to catch anti gravity stocks.
Can be done.

That one... ownership issue.
Many think twice before touching their shares.

Where's the wok?

What ? What ? What?
