tanglinboy: have you once a year tabulate your overall wins/losses from playing stocks? Despite what ppl say abt reaping great profits via contra and shorting, the real profits lies in long term investment on specific you believe can grow stocks. Constant trading in and out after cancel each other out may yield not so much gains. Maybe there are some real successful stock traders that can boast he made ALOT monies year in year out. But I believe those are in minority else I would have seen alot of working professionals all quiting full time jobs to jump into full time stock trading. |

It is in discussion with AMD Intel has fought back recently to take back market share gains made by AMD over the last few years, raising concerns about the potential for negative impact to Chartered's business. Chartered now made chips for AMD using 65nm technology, but was looking to move to even more advanced 45nm technology in the partnership, said Chia Song Hwee, president and CEO. The smaller specification, which relates to the width of circuitry in chips, allows designers to create more powerful chips by packing more computing power into a given area. "We are in discussion with (AMD), there's no firm agreement yet," Chia said at a Merrill Lynch technology conference in Taipei, referring to discussions to move to the 45nm technology. |

pikachu... Technical analysis is an art form ... no two persons do it the same way. Still, you need to learn the 'rudiments', the tools available, etc. before you develope your own personal style of interpretation. In doing so, you need not use all the tools you learnt during your knowledge acquisition phase. |

Hi iPunter, How did you come to the conclusion about the 3.00 level? Can teach me? BTW, you're recommending Martin Pring book but I believe it contains many chart indicators which you don't believe in ...... unless there's something else in there that you recommend? |

pikachu... Concerning NOL... since you've been holding it from the peak, there's no need to panic unless it goes to 3.00 or below. If that happens, and since a trendline support is broken, I would have 'dumped'. Personally, I would not have let it dropped so much from the peak before I dumped. For this reason, you can call me iDumper too !!! hehe... :) |

hahaha... :) Are you trying to make me into another Simon Loh?... :) If so, then you will never be able to do so. Simply because I am not qualified to give any 'tipping' service. I only trade for the fun of it and not with the hope of making big money quickly. My posts only reflect my personal style.. And many will not accept my style, nor indeed my market objectives. |

Hi iPunter, Ok... need to ask further because I don't really get it. I think my IQ too low.... Sorry for so many questions..... I know you say determining trend is subjective but can you roughly explain how do you it? Also, how do you determine target price if you do not use indicators? How do you determine entry and exit timing? Please teach me! Also, please help me on the NOL counter... its something I've been holding onto. Maybe you can teach me using that as an example! |

In my posts, I not only expound my own methods and views... but also emphasize certain things specially for the benefit of those who would benefit from it eg. new players. An example is my post about 'trend' below. I wanted to highlight that many people don't accept the existence of the trend. |

pikachu... Ignoring the trend would be the greatest stock market sin!!! ... since trend is the first thing one should consider before entering the market. But determining the trend is difficult! Based on one's assessment of the likely trend, only then can one act accordingly ie. be long or short. Also, every technician should pay close attention to targets. After all, a particular trend will not last indefinitely. |

oic.... so correct me if I'm wrong because I'm trying to understand your method of trading. Because you mention that trends can only be seen clearly after they occur then am I right that you do not bother with trends? |

By the way, the point I was trying to stress is the occurrence of the trend phenonemon. Since many may tend not to believe that trends do exist. The trend can be seen clearly by reference to the chart after the occurrence. Thus my presenting that example (Chartered), which shows it rather clearly. So we are not talking so much about predicting the trend so much as an acceptance that trends, particularly downtrends, do actually exist. In strong bull markets, this is rather easily disregarded or forgotten. |

pikachu... I had always made it quite clear that my 'technicals' are derived simply by visual observation of the charts. It is simple but by no means easy, as it requires a certain degree of so-called "subjectivity" in its interpretation on the observer's part. It is an art acquired by the individual over a period of time, and not a specific skill. But any system of 'technical analysis' has its flaws. Even if one uses the whole arsenal of formulic indicators available at our disposal, experience will tell us they are confusing us more by using more of them. And furthermore, many of them are "telling yesterdays news today for us to act tomorrow", ie they are 'lagging. indicators. |

Maybe dear iPunter would like to share his secret how he can identify trends without using indicators? Would definitely like to learn from your wealth of experience ..... :) |

Those new to TA should take a look at this stock's visual chart. It shows a classic example of a downtrend in action right before your eyes. (ie. One doesn't need the help of arcane formulae, indicators, etc, to notice that it is on a downtrend) |
