maybe if I am right..... november will see the turn around..... but I did not write this to ask for comments...... it is a " wise man" prediction.

 

2009 ,2010 and 2011 will see the record highs and low..... i did not believe in 2009 and i enter stock market in 2010.... today we are in 2011....

stock ride has never been so hard to prediction.

 

only gaecia will know who is this WISE MAN.

On a more serious note, if you do aspire to be

      a remisier, you should first academically learn

            all about stocks betting (aka. investing).

                        Which means you should not be

Y U so like dat one?

    Why you can't just say " all is betting" ?... lol... 

Gaecia      ( Date: 08-Aug-2011 13:20) Posted: Its actually  rather tricky to execute. There's about 400k buy q at $9 support,  we don't know  whether  it  is real or mock q.  Suppose $9 doesn't breach today, you wouldn't be shorting theoretically. Also the downside  is unlikely to  reach $8.60 within today. Come Wed if all is well then you'll be glad  for not shorting ocbc today. If bad news, $9 will not be there anymore at opening. It is complicated, no? eastcivic      ( Date: 08-Aug-2011 13:07) Posted: gaecia, roti.... i tempted to short ocbc when and if it breaks $9 support.... target 8.60..... what do you all think?  i never do shorting before.....

 

In stocks betting,

    as long as you can make money,

            you are a sifu. ie. no point being a

                          sifu if you lose a lot of money...
