Wrong or correct is not important..... Most important I can always survive in the markets...... Trading strategy is very important..... Just remember wrong or correct, the key is " Exit an trade is an art" ... STI will be green later on.... Dow will be green tonight again.... lol

Stock betting for just play play is best for retirees who want to pass time.  No big windfalls and no big losses to take. But for most people,  logically what is the point of play play in a small way? There are so many other ways to play play or small betting. To " mau" is to faster die, but not to " mau" is a waste of time. Best logical conclusion is to stay away from stocks.

Yes, sifu is right too...     It is very easy to become " Pok!" when one plays stocks, regardless of what method is used.           But at the same time, playing stocks is a very challenging and educational activity...                   As long as one does not " mau " (or hoot tua tua), the game will be very enjoyable... ![]()

You are trading on best movements and it resembles trading on gut feelings. This is dangerous method for trading stocks. Such method also not always win.  Trading on breakouts or break-down has about 80 percent winning chances, and has proved to be a time tested way, though if one is too confident he can also " pok" like what sifu iPunter said.  But when one follows break out points, one has also got to remember to put a stop loss in case of market changing suddenly in opposite direction.

I have already said it umptten times...   Always play stock-betting with a chart.         Playing with a chart is very different from playing by indicators... ![]()

for any TA indicators, if u have the program in excel u can notice if u just need to put a negative price in a up trend immediately all indicators start to show weakness. so ipunter trying to say it is lagging. back to ur question: how to play?   simple.....mature stock players dont play during normal time, they play with events like wat i have been citing.   however i believe those TA ppl will never understand wat i meant becos ur play ground is different from us......since u r TA, u play every day every time every hours n u lost most of the time....not that u r no good just becos u get urself wet in many places u got no chances to dry. n the losses start to make u confuse n demoralized. for us we see as the mkt up down w/o action.....just waiting for the best moment/events, we enter big n out fast. or if opportunity arise in certain stock being too hot n SGX starts to query of unusual activities, we take note n study for signs of weakness, if it exists we wait n wait till strength fade out we strike...i.e. STXOSV, CHINATAISAN etc so most of the time we wait n wait n if got weakness we study n strike then out n if got second round we strike again till volume fade.

Jim Cramer: Beware the 'Giant Rumor Mill' MarketIf you ask " Mad Money" host Jim Cramer, it was a number of rumors that caused stocks to rally more than 1 percent across the board Tuesday, wiping out most of the previous day's declines.   In Cramer's opinion, the biggest rumor was that the European Central Bank is going to guarantee all deposits in European banks in euros (EUR), which would mean that even if a euro zone country decides to issue its own currency, their deposits would still be denominated in euros. In turn, Cramer said people wouldn't have to worry about losing their savings overnight if they keep their money in a Spanish or Greek bank because the money will be insured either way. .................. |

Sifu, then how do you propose to short without using any form of guide? To short or long following the quick directional moves can also go haywire.  That is why everyone says to put a cut loss point in case it goes wrong.

Sorry to disagree with sifu, but to me, following those indicators is the surest way to become " pok!" (broke).     This is because the indicators are derived from past data, making them lagging when they are noticed.         Thus, when an indicator, for example an MA is seen as charging up like a fierce bull, it is perhaps               time to do the opposite. There is good solid reason why indicators are said to be " lagging" ...  ![]()

shorting should be done at crossing down of major indicators such as MACD, moving averages, break down at neck lines and so forth. However  break outs or break downs do sometimes fail, so one should incorporate a stop loss order simultaneously when one does the shorting. | ||||

Sifu, I hope you will not anyhow short the market by gut feel alone...     Always play based on the stock chart. Usually, it is best to short at the             chart point, but often, after break-out point is also good because many                   will scramble to cover their earlier short positions there and thus causing                             a juicy spike... that is the point when most people are " bullish all over" ...  ![]()
