x 1   x 0  Alert Admin	Agreed with u    :) *And don't be greedy and whack too much, u want controlable risk, not uncontrolable damage    :) *My other worried is, the higher it climb, if any bad surprise happen, the hardest it will fall. I don't dare to chase high, i still on caution mode    :) rutheone1905      ( Date: 12-Sep-2012 23:48) Posted: thursday nite uncle ben will talk, friday our mkt will move. so if u r still holding to long or short u may be wonder which one is more dangerous if mkt chiong n u hold short n vice versa. wat i think is holding short is more dangerous becos if mkt chiong it will chiong for a while above ur entry price (maybe 3 month or so), during this time if ur holding got dividend paying u need to fork out extra to pay for dividend + some admin fees. if u hold long n mkt dive then not to worry (unless u contra without cash ready to redeem) becos Oct still got last FOMC.....heee. the next grey swan events on the way to watch out: 1) china vs japan (unlikely) 2) israel vs iran (unpredictable groups of crazy ppl) 3) fiscal cliff (if obama is president then shouldnt be much problems)

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	just to share since a newbie pm me. when u got limited fund like 15K, u must find out wat qty u need to buy to ensure tat the INFINITY BREAKEVEN occurs eg lot price breakeven remark 1 0.44 0.494       xiao if u buy so little 5 0.44 0.451 little xiao only 9 0.44 0.446 xiao little 10 0.44  0.446 notice same as 9 lots 11 0.44 0.445  1 pip lower 14  0.44 0.444 1 pip lower again 18 0.44 0.443  1 pip lower again infinite 0.44 0.443  u will notice tat 0.443 is the infinite breakeven price & 18lots is the infinite B.E. lots so for me I always will check wat is the infinite breakeven lots n whether i willing to bet tat amount or not.   however in general any bet above $10,000 will be in infinite breakeven liao.   so most oldbirds here not an issue only for newbies with limited fund need to consider this.

They ignored big ben. This is a gd arguement that markets have indeed factored in the announcement. Also sti is already very strong, when others went down it remains. Does this tell u something? My angle is funds parked here and will shift from sti and asean region - KLSE, SET, etc had been going strong. Im not sure about china & india because they are still lows.  DJ also had been highs...u check the ishares & vanguards it shows, but i still believe funds are channeling back from AP to europe and US. So even if announced, upside little compared to downside. That is why i had channel my positions - load off all my longs in sti except midas and already buy some in DJ over past couple of weeks. Total in market only 20%, meaning i still have 80% of ammos. The bull needs a breather, its a beast and cant run up high forever, it needs the bear brother to pass him the oxygen tanks and steroids and rest so to run up again.  I still stand by my belief - markets will correct but no major crash   Sgshares  Elite Posted: 12-Sep-2012 15:13   x 0    x 0 u so sure? why? yabbest           ( Date: 12-Sep-2012 15:03) Posted:  those who buy thinking markets will go up friday after Ben announced QE3 will shake head in disbelief.
