nice!


oil/energy stocks rally!!

LVS, BAC, MPEL, BZH, C, ETFC, AA, AAPL, KO, RF, NBG? So many .. What to pick? Long Term Investor or Short Term Trader?

oil rallying from 50+ because of iran deal. it was reported that iran's oil export will take time and some hiccup from oil producing nations. congrats to those who long it after the deal!!! Bravo!

very volatile man...!

now going short.

tomorrow should be interesting....

Don't short lah!... I think it's going to hold here at $50.
Maybe we got a range play $50 to $60 until end of the year.

i trade crude etf longs n shorts very short term, 1-2 days, sometimes intraday.
51-52, 52-53, i.e. 2% range can offer plenty of plays!
but already said, i play with coins only.

such plays i do is also to "insure" against the xle and oih i hv when i smell an avalanche.
for same reason, it also means i tend to short crude more than long for quick coin plays.

the oil bulls and bears been fighting all night at 53.10
we'll see which one gives way tonite - china, iran, greece, fed factors again and again.
my bet is on the bears.

no show?

already watched 2 tv shows!

aapl's back to almost 127, so if u got it close to 120, very good!

oil is down, looks like going to 51, so i was "right".

time to sleep, bonne nuit.

never bought enough on this fruit.
Wish it could come down to below 120 again. It's been testing at around 120 many times since beginning of the year.

i did top up at about 122, not too bad.

but the way the price been behaving lately, i'm no longer that bullish about it.

seriously, i suggest a look at xlv - this healthcare etf is on track for continuing multi-yr stellar performance:
http://etfdb.com/etf/XLV/#performance

appl still on sideline for almost a year now, so it could breakout either way, 50:50. But since i bullish on it long term, my wish is it could breakout downwards....best go back 110.

i'm not familiar with healthcare sector, so not dare to play.
quite interested on finance sector though....but i guess i'd missed the train (for 2 years), chase high is worrying.

if appl goes below 115 in absence of a severe market crash, no point keeping - i will dump them all to realize just the fx gain.

that health etf is not for play but for "retirement" - it's my best performer for last 12 months.

great that you found your "retirement fund".

well, the fruit is one of my retirement fund, expecting a 10x gain hopefully before i died. Agree with you, if it fell below even just 118, i guess that could trigger panic sell on TA concern. That's where i prepare my elephant gun at low 110s.

and also accumulating china stocks through hk market while many panic and jumping around in fear. these are my retirement fund as well.

sadly, it's extremely hard to find a retirement fund on bursa. I see Panamy as one, but growth is limited since its dependency on local market is too high and growth in malaysia is limited (unlike china).

i will check with you on china/hk when the time comes.

i need to build up a bit more on my "retirement" funds.



btw... there is no china/hk stocks thread, is there? haven't noticed any...

now the most hateful thing is weak RM! buy now, we are losing instantly a 6-8% (if, a big if, RM could rebound that range in future... ).
thanks to our country's famous corruptions!

i think otherwise - now is a good time to buy any fx with rm!

why i think that:

Yeah NFLX is up 12 percent in pre market trading. Anyway with the Greece drama over for now looks like we will see a good evening.

Here are the pre market indicators (as of this post):
Dow - 18,053.00 +61.00
Nasdaq 100 - 4553.30 +18.80
S&P 500 - 2112.00 +7.75
Russell 2000 - 1267.70 +4.20

U got Netflix? Never checked... Is it in s&p or Nasdaq?

Yes, tonite should be.... Bull.
