I was out of market (except 1-2 counters for long term) since last June 2008...back now as i have bought some counters from November 2008-March 2009, and is analyzing the best time to exit (except 1-2 counters for long term) with good profit to be made |

STI should move towards the 2500-2600 region by August (one should take profit for shares bought between last October 2008-March 2009)...after that, there are two possibilities: i. STI may touch 3000 by next May 2010, and then down all the way to 1800 (best buy for the next bull cycle in year 2013/2014) ii. STI may consolidate all the way down by breaking below support 2420 by next May 2010 all the way to 1800 (best buy for the next bull cycle in year 2013/2014) Just my two cents and let the market be the judge |

Ignore the small corrections and focus on the major corrections. At the end of the day if you lose out to the person who just bought and held for long term, what is the point of buying and selling so much over minor corrections? | ||

Many are going to make this mistake . They buy and sell so much they lose focus. Then after they sell, the stock will go up. But they refuse to buy back because the stock is at higher price. 4 years later, they will realise where they went wrong | ||

If the chart tell you to sell you sell. Don't try to pre-empt what is going to happen. No sell signal just do nothing

Crazy North Korean.... SEOUL, South Korea (AP) – North Korea announced Monday that it successfully carried out a second underground nuclear test, less than two months after launching a rocket widely believed to be a test of its long-range missile technology. North Korea, incensed by U.N. Security Council condemnation of its April 5 rocket launch, had warned last month that it would restart it rogue nuclear program, conduct a second atomic test as a follow-up to its first one in 2006, and carry out long-range missile tests. On Monday, the country’s official Korean Central News Agency said the regime “successfully conducted one more underground nuclear test on May 25 as part of measures to bolster its nuclear deterrent for self-defense.” The regime boasted that the test was conducted “on a new higher level in terms of its explosive power and technology of its control.” South Korean President Lee Myung-bak convened an emergency security session. His spokesman, Lee Dong-kwan, confirmed that a North Korean nuclear test was possible. In Washington, State Department spokesman Andy Laine said: “At this point, we’ve seen the reports and we’re trying to get more information, but we’re not able to confirm at this time.” Seismologists from the U.S., South Korea and Japan reported activity shortly after 9:50 a.m. in a northeastern area where North Korea conducted its first nuclear test in 2006. The Japan Meteorological Agency measured the seismic activity at magnitude-5.3. Quake expert Gen Aoki noted that its depth was “very shallow.” “The area is not active seismically so it is highly possible that it could be an artificial quake,” Aoki said in Tokyo. In Seoul, the Korea Institute of Geoscience and Mineral Resources reported seismic activity in Kilju in North Hamgyong Province – the same area where North Korea carried out a nuclear test in October 2006. Seismological measurements back North Korea’s claim that the test was far stronger than in 2006. At the Chinese border city of Yanji, 130 miles (200 kilometers) northwest from the test site, an emergency siren sounded shortly before 9 a.m. when officials thought an earthquake occurred. A receptionist at Yanji’s International Hotel said she and several hotel guests felt the ground tremble. An official at Yanji’s government seismological bureau, who declined to give his name, said his agency confirmed that some type of explosion occurred, “but it is hard to say what kind of blast it was.” North Korea’s 2006 test measured magnitude-3.6, an official at the Korea Meteorological Administration in Seoul said. He spoke on condition of anonymity, citing department policy. Monday’s test raises the stakes in North Korea’s standoff over its nuclear and missile programs. North Korea conducted its first nuclear test in October 2006, drawing widespread international condemnation and drawing stiff sanctions from the U.N. Security Council. The Security Council demanded that North Korea eliminate its nuclear weapons and ordered countries to prevent Pyongyang from importing or exporting any material for weapons of mass destruction or ballistic missiles. The surprise nuclear test prompted five nations to pressure the North to agree to dismantle its nuclear program in exchange for energy aid and other concessions – a pact Pyongyang signed in February 2007. North Korea began disablement in November 2007. That process came to a halt in July 2008. South Korean troops were on a high alert but there was no sign North Korean troops were amassed along the heavily fortified border dividing the two Koreas, according to an official at the Joint Chiefs of Staff who spoke on condition of anonymity, citing agency policy. North Korea is believed to have at least a half-dozen atomic bombs. However, experts say North Korean scientists have not yet mastered the miniaturization technology for mounting a nuclear device onto a long-range missile. |

Technical Analysis FSSTI in final leg of wave 3; expect resistance near 2,330-2,350 The previous steep rally in the FSSTI was a wave iii of 3 move, which most often is the most dynamic move. The pullback from that level saw the index retracing exactly 38% of the preceding move, which is a key fibonacci retracement level of the move. The present move is the final leg of wave 3, which should terminate near 2,330-2,350. This should be followed by a steep pullback. What to expect: a) at least one more gap up in the index. b) lower volume compared to wave iii of 3. c) divergence on RSI and MACD as the index breaks above the previous high of 2,284. d) lower market breadth compared to previous wave iii. We are already seeing second liners rallying sharply. Second-liner property stocks have rallied while previous leaders have stalled. Wave v of 3 should see a broad-based rally but with breadth lower than that of wave iii. We recommend quick trades on City Developments at S$8.20 (Target: S$8.70), SGX at S$7.20 (Target: S$7.80), Wing Tai at S$1.27 (Target: S$1.45) Yangzijang at S$0.745 (Target: S$0.82-0.84, see last week’s report), and Straits Asia at S$1.41 (Target: S$1.80) FSSTI - Wave Count .
