Ooo cheongwee, u sound very dejected. Actually everyone have their own favourite counter like u. N normally we vested alot on our own favourite counter. The call to buy & sell, each individual will definately have to be responsible fr themselve. U are not to blame at all. To be frank, sometimes see yr forum to me is just like seeing a soccer match...so exciting. Hey is a compliment....not kidding u. Emm maybe in future in yr forum, u just provide news to the forum folks n don't give them any call on buy or sell. Let them decide themselves. Anyway, we got TA expert in RichTan & Bintang whereby we forum folks can consult b4 acting as well. To be frank yr forum writeout is helpful for the forum folks also. Don't just leave like this. Cheer pal. |

This is a follow up on previous post... below i am refering to long term investment of say 5 yrs...not for trading...pls do take notice.. and for SAR , those who say buy on my call, if you feel uncomfortable, try to sell as soon u see profit..and or just invest in blues so to feel comfortable, no point you buy and fr than on you expect up and up ....and down a few cent you feel uncomfortable,and uneasy,,or sell to comfort level...dont over invest. but at the end of the day, we must bear responsible for our action, no doubt it is my call, but it is your ACTION..and we are must DYODD...you take the action after due diligent..and not just blindly..as we are grwon up adult. not kid. but i believe SAR will not disappoint..thus, i buy on every dip...i thk going forward it is more riskier now then ever to stay vested,,,,just look at the vol..be alway prepare for the worse to cut if necessary.. good luck. this will be my last post...i will not reply to any private message or be able to share with you ppl for reasons best known to myself.. thank all for your kindness and sharing...may all be well and happy.. and for the last time....let huat ahhhhhhhhhhh..together...march low is the low for this bear. |

Hi all....i accept raechael explaination, and would like to apologise with regret here... and dealer0168 and all ...i would like to share on stop loss..this is what i learned from RC Peck...from FearlessWealth...he e-mail me last week when i ask him abt stop losss...this is what HE SAID... Here are the rules I've been following. 1) All equity stop loss shd be 25% at a minimun (more room for volatility). 2) Only invest 4% of your portfolio in any one stock( and since each stock has a stop loss of 25%, you will never be risking 1% of your portfolio. This is the key. 3) Never initiate a position that has more than 20% exposure to any one sector. Your position can grow bigger than 20%, but only throught growth. So to answer your question, place a stop loss of 25% on your stock position. This stop loss shd be calculated from either where you bought or fr the investment high of the year. pls read and sharew what is your opinion on this,,,i like to have more suggestion.. i thk this shd be apply to blue chip...25% stop loss is definitely not for trading...when i ask him i am refering to blues.. so we can comfortably buy 25 blue chiop counter so if 1 counter down 25% that is 1% of your portfolio, if 2 counter than 2% and if 3 then 3% loss...and so on.. but it is still possible to loss 25% overall if there is a major market selldown across the board..other than that it is very unlikely....seen a good ideas...till u guy help me spot the l;oophole for me and share it here....thanks in advance.. |

hi rachael, don't need to get angry. cheongwee just find it hard to understand why u dump w/o profit with this highly recommended counter, especially when the CEO himself bought 500 lots at $1.81 recently. i bought some at 1.80, some at $1.75 and prepare to buy some more if dip below $1.70, noticed $1.63 was the recent lowest support. with limited n hard earned funds, we should spread out our buying and avoid s-chip and penny stocks. i speak from my past painful experience. |

(i don't like this, but after reading the post made me so angry). I did brought at $1.78 and $1.79 and sold at $1.80 (I thought I am an adult no need to explain to people of my action but since i am attack here so need to clarify myself) brought at $1.78 because seen this share has been going at $1.98 this is early or Mid June but who knows once I buy it started to fall to the lowest at $1.68 and contantly around $1.75/$1.76 Okay, than I thought maybe i should hold on to it since all other counters are not doing well and so been stuck there since mid June until now..than i read Cheongwee posting and so some research about this counter and think maybe this is not so bad and brought some at $1.79 when i saw the price starting to go up to $1.83....yeah maybe it is true that it will go up to $2.20 soon, so better not miss the boat. Now what made me sell at $1.80....every morning and evening I will hear the financial news from the radio and Thursday will be an important financial unemployment figures from the USA which was why this week trading was thin. If employment figures are high, US will be more difficult to come out of recession and shares will tumble. Cheongwee, I thought you said I must have a lost stop?so that what i am doing...and you are right I did not made any money and also did not loss any money on this counter. I have already paid $1800 loss on Epure so not going to pay again for another lesson. all these are my hard earn money from my full time job,. After I sold at $1.80, yesterday this counter ended at $1.74/5(?).... which is not so bad.... I thought it will tumble further. As mentioned before I am very new trading shares, just earn a few thousand from Mermaid so I am still learning and will get very upset with myself if I get burn from trading shares. btw, who do i offended huh??? exchange 23, thank you for speaking out for me.

Why do i say blue???...because blue chips have solid balance sheet...they are very unlikely to go under if the crises really turn for the worse.....they are transparent..basically honest management. But mid cap..u still got to watch them day to day..and some of their financial statement is not transparent...and some item are questionable..if the management choose to hide fr auditor, there is nothing we can do...so this make reading financial statement useless..why read one that is makeup?? and penny...forget it , i dont even bother to read, except to speculate in a rally, like jade and centillion...i hope i cause no offend here. I have told some of my relative and friend to put their money in SPH for the dividend since nw the bank int is so low...and if they are not comfortable with one counter, i told them to spread amongst SIA, SPH, starhub, a few blues chip...why lend bank $ for so low int?.. and furthermore buying blues nw at sti 2300 is a steal...a new low is a forcast and prediction only and may not materialise...and suppose even if a new low do come ...u just sit thro it to sti 5000... sti 5000 is for sure...it is a matter of when, not if....by then, not only u got fat dividend of ave 6 to7 %.annually....u also got capital appreaciation...i believe we see ave of 100% to 200% over fr today px for all blues chip...this i am sure.. not long ago, i recommend guy here to put 10% of their invest fund in the "too big to fail bank" like citigroup, BAC and the like...all make $$$...in fact, one guy here message me..and say he shd have put all his money here...i told him, why i said 10% is because that is what we can afford to lose if they really go bankrupt and that i am only 50% sure...if not i would have sold my house and business and put all in..myself.. the main thing here is GREED...that is why if SAR give me 20% i will be happy..if we reach there i may hold on a little while to see how high is go be fore i sell... Extreme Greed kills....we must control greed and not let greed control us...if hit profit target do take some profit...no regret..market can change very fast, and take your capital together with it... good luck.

Bro Cheong Wee, Relax, I give u a "Tiger", let us have a "Tifer together... , I agree with Chee Meng, there are all sorts of people in this world, so too including this forum, ask Chee Meng, the rest of our fellow forumers who are following my posts n I m sure u too know tat I had my fair share of antagonist n flaming post, we can't plse everybody, bound to have some tat dun see eye to eye. Tats why nowadays, I try to cut down my posting to minimise friction with those tat dun see eye to eye with me.

hard to believe how nickyng made $ today by shorting this counter. it opened at 1.71, went up to 1.77 and closed at 1.74 cheongwee, some ppl get uncomfortable with yr style - straight talking n showing off yr dancing when px up but i believe most of us here enjoy yr direct, frank n humourous postings. most important of all, help us make $ with yr recommendation. thanks uncle. |

Agreed with u Cheongwee. Actually is more of correction. And i'm positive on STI growth to continue as well. But will not be a smooth ride to recovery. Anyway my long term counter is property. I shall not state out why they are my preferred choice than other sector like commodities...... Everyone have their reason for their own choice. However, i do trade Straitasia, but short term play.................. But may change to abit long if got more good news from Straitasia.
