Do you guys queue your stocks at certain price?

for example, if the current price is RM8.50, do you queue at RM8 with GTD order??

but if the stock suddenly tumbles due to glitch etc to RM 7, then we'd have accidentally bought the stock at RM8?

I never used it actually..

Say I like a stock, but I don't like the price enough to buy at tht time. I will put it in my watch list (which could be even my head only when Im lazy) with some idea of what a good price should be. When the price hits that level, I re-assess the stock again n then buy. I'm not particular of a few ticks.

Same as a sell..

I prefer to keep things flexible n in control.

Price glitch sedom happen.May be 0.01%.So ,I always use GTD order.Hassel free.

How long did it took for your portfolio to leave the negative region (considering the losses from brokerage as well, not just pure capital P&L)?

Bad time for me was in end 2015, but by mid 2016 already recovered. Nowadays smarter (or luckier).

But it really depend on composition of your portfolio, timing and your corrective actions. Hard to telll. Possible that it can never recovers..

He/She may want to wait for a correction. Still too high at the moment.

Want more liquidly. I personally starting to DCA into Stashaway 36%

during recession, does MYR appreciate / depreciate against USD??

which currency appreciates during recession? Is it Swiss Franc?

heavily dependent on WHICH country's recession or which country hit kaka more.
eg.
1997-1998 Asian Currency Crisis - omg.. MYR, THB went to hell (ie. fell) against UK's pound sterling & USD
VS
2008-2009 Credit crunch and even until early 2014 - MYR gained on USD. great time to be exchanging MYR for USD and investing in US markets

oh, I see. Thanks!

so this coming recession, which country is expected to be in recession? Is it US?

Everyone and their dawg says US 2020 but... usually when everyone expects something, it doesnt happen.
Also, 2020 = US Presidential Election year.
Wish i had crystal balls XD - i usually buy on lelong, and hold on for dear life

Berkshire's cash pile is worth nearly 60% of its $208 billion portfolio of public companies.

What about you guys? What % of your assets in cash?

so keep cash and wait for the next financial crisis?

Similar to Berkshire. At the moment, approx (+- 1%):

40% Equities
30% Cash MYR
5% Cash USD (was 10%)
20% Bonds MYR
5% Gold (was 12%, but took profit n moved to bonds and some equities)

This is not yet a financial crisis allocation.. More like balanced.

sorry, I need to ask a stupid questions as I'm not familiar with options, warrants, derivatives etc..... (even though I've read them up, I'm still not quite familiar).

I've been given stock-WA & stock-WC in my portfolio..... what do I do with these?
