last time when i shorted HSI CWT (when it was still legal) and this wt happens to be a very very quiet wt, SGX didn't quote the last done traded price which happens to be still my price, because no trade done for this quiet counter last 4 days, and the fact that its a HSI CWT, SGX buy back based on last SELL Q which I think its very unfair I questioned them but they never reply, I just think they simply bent their rules ! |

Hi Juice220376 Sharing my experience. I oversold CSC at 0.445 on 2 Jul. It closes at 0.455 on 5 Jul. SGX bought back at 0.465 (2 bids above day high on 6 Jul at 11.30 am). Was told SGX will buy back based on 5 Jul's close or 6 Jul's high, whichever is higher. There was a little penalty fee also. What I did - I bought CSC at 0.445 and 0.45 on 3 Jul. So if CSC move up, my losses are covered. But, if it move down .........then ????? Luckily, it went up. I sold at 0.48. So my loss was minimised. In fact, I made a little profit. For me, I was lucky, because on 6 Jul, CSC came down and SGX bought at 0.465. |

dear Juice220376.. i am afraid the mistake can be costly... they will force buy on T+4 day at a specific time up to their choosing... and the price will be plus two ticks... i.e if the price at that time is say 35cts they will purchase it at 36cts (2 ticks up of 0.5cts).. if price goes to 38.5cts they will buy at 39.5cts |

my dear loushare... welcome too... I like your astute comparison re Giantlow's missing "friends"... as for me they have gone away from Middle Earth...perhaps under the influence of Melkor, perhaps back in time to Númenor even Ea.. alas this is a chapter that may remain unmentionable for some time... |

HI peeps can someone explain to me the concept of shorting (which until recently this week i thought was only allowed for Commodities). 1. Say for ROWSLEY, I made a mistake and accidentally did a 'SELL' of 36cts onm 23rd July07 (actually my broker made that mistake!).Thus I was informed that this means that I had shorted this counter i.e. selling it when i dont own any stocks from it yet. 2. According to my UOB Kay Hian broker, the market will buy back the value of my stock using T-4 day of trading. Wat does this mean actually? Market buys back the value using the price on 19th July 07? So do i make a loss or profit here? Sorry this may sounds dumb to some here but I am a freaking newbie at this. Would appreciate some pointers.Cheers |

it has been somewhile since I was in Sichuan, then private travel not possible, so I cant really advise... but yes Sichuan is absolute a beautiful place.. and it is big province.. and quite varied. but for scenary Jiucaikou - where Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon 卧虎藏龙 and recently the serial The Return of the Condor Heroes 神雕侠侣 was filmed there... I understand autumn would be the best time.... how much time do you have? Tibet is totally a different challenge... we are talking about 4000metres above sea level so you got to be acclaimatised to the height... I was in Qinghai at about 3000m and already the height effects can be felt... |

cks, sleeper bus?, Oh , I saw many when in China, hopefully that was the same type of bus you mentioned. Ween I asked the China people who had traveled in such a bus before, they told me to avoid them because it is uncomfortable. you know the head room is really too little so you could not sit up , over a long trip it make you tired. I normally take big-bus if i need to travel from a city to another city if I go budget way. Big bus is very comfortable. dear Bunnie... alternatively you can also take bus...apparently from GZ nowadays There are many sleeper buse from Guangzhuo to Guilin and it is easy to buy tickets and can catch bus to Guilin at the same day. |
