hi boon why u would never be able to jump into any of there? any reason?
Hahaha..... ok let me bore you with my poor answers....

1. I am extremely selective when I trade (plus I trade only 1 or 2 stocks at any one time)
2. I cannot trade such setups...
this I found out thru past exp. (this is why is so important to start with paper trading and continue paper trading even when you graduated into real life trading)
My rational is always simple.
Know who I am and play my best game (how will I know? Paper trade.

)
It's like tennis.
You play?
If you are a much better base line player than a serve/volley player, how should you play?
Play from the back, yes? (very general answer la)
3. What's the catalyst to play such theme stocks?
Well, perhaps, the only half reason is that some stock indicators are showing PERHAPS they are oversold.
And again, oversold/overbought got many types.
On extreme cases, oversold can last a loooooooooooong time.
4. Do not compare yourself with others.
Slightly off topic...

I am me and you are you.
There will be trades you are good at.
There will be plenty of trades I am not good at or will AVOID.
we are different.
So always remember.
What works for me might not work for you.
And my comments?
Treat them as third opinion la..
ok?
So say I bought the day you posted.
