Jamsimone... :)
Your technique seems good... congratulations... 
Shplayer... :)
Yes... for those who truly love their stocks, they will always stick with them through thick and thin...
so much so that in the end, in the long-term, they will be finally rewarded ...
$kam$ko,
I guess for some, you can call it true love.
Hmm interesting analysis,
I am a "quarter" trader ... recently I bought some stocks which are quite dead e.g. Fabchem, Devotion and Vicplas. In fact, for Devotion and Vicplas, I have the "honour" of first trades at 10am and 2pm respectively. >> These has brought me some 20% profits in a week.
Good luck
For long-term and loyal investors, it really doesn't matter to them when the price keep on falling.
Since they are staunchly 'betting' on their favourites, they will willingly hold for lengthy periods, maybe for years and .
But for myself as a trader, I will feel much pain and anguish if my stock falls just a bit after I bought in... thus I will very, very promptly dump my holdings...
Since 3Q06, LMA has reported declinining YoY profit despite increasing revenues.
So, unless management can resolve this issue, investors will take a cautious view of this counter.
Furthermore, the long drawn patent battles in court does not really inspire investor's confidence.
Hi jamsimone
Your thinking is as good as mine - LMA is likely to move north more than south. Fancyjackjames and other SJ participants (since they are not buying at current prices) must be dreaming of LMA dipping all the way to 10 cents before buying them!! Or are they waiting for the analysts to recommend that LMA shares are worth buying when its price reaches 88 cents before doing so? By then, their firms would have accumulated enough of LMA shares at below 88 cents to sell at high prices to those who rely on their recommendations.
Hi Manikamaniko
According to Dr Chan Yan Chong, the noted Chinese-speaker from Hong Kong University, patience is needed to buy and sell shares. Hope the LMA manipulators will not DIE of starvation or are unable to make enough kopi $$$ to buy milk powder for their little ones.
Hello Hikitty... :)
Your trading style is similar to Livermore's...
Long-term value investing... but great patience is required...
When everyone comes to knows LMA is a good share, it will take some time (may be one year) to consolidate b4 moving north very furiously It has to be furious coz' very few are prepared to sell at current low prices Don't forget - a small free float - 70 thousand lots and top twenty shareholders are NOT starving away financially - they keep them as long long long term - may be five years - investments. The present BBs or syndicates behind LMA are NOT "creative" enough in managing the counter. Hope another group (or groups) will take over due to "rotational play" (which shd come very soon?)
Tks jamsimone for the effort in posting the LMA report - it bodes well for it to surge upwards - everyone comes to know abt it - that' why everyone is sitting tight on his or her investment.
NEW FRONTIERS IN PNEUMATIC LITHOTRIPSY:

armamentarium, in recognition of its great effectiveness. Amongst the drawbacks of the existing devices
are the high number of shocks required to fragment the hardest stones, the propulsion effect related to
the mechanical action of the probe, and the dependence on external sources of energy. We tested the
?StoneBreaker?, a new intracorporeal pneumatic lithotripter of second generation.
: Pneumatic lithotripsy has gained a prominent position in the endourologistMaterial and methods:
entirely self contained, independent from an external source of energy and connecting lines. A
disposable highly compressed carbon dioxide gas cartridge stores enough energy for a large size
calculus. The expansion chamber and the hammer have been redesigned to generate a powerful shock
when the CO2 abruptly expands and forcefully project the hammer against the firing pin that transmits
the energy to the probe held in close contact with the stone (see figures below). One major advantage of
this device is the minimal displacement at the tip of the probe, despite the high energy of the mechanical
shock. Typically, large size fragments are generated, expediting their extraction (a short video clip
illustrates the procedure).
The StoneBreaker® is a compact device weighing approximately 500 g,Results:
failed multiple ESWL sessions (50% Calcium oxalate monohydrate and 15% cystine). All stones could
be fragmented in extractable fragments, with minimal trauma to the mucosa. Complications were related
to the percutaneous approach itself, and not to the fragmentation process.
We treated percutaneously 56 consecutive cases of large size and hard renal calculi havingConclusion:
endourological lithotripsy. Our present experience, duplicated by others, is encouraging, and further
developments are already underway.

Just to add, in the event where both LMA and the ET can be used, LMA would be preferred. A major advantage is when a patient is conscious and pulls out the LMA, there is little or no trauma to the airway as compared to the ET. However according to my brother, LMA is not used in (1) situations where the patient is lying on his tummy (head facing downwards). This is because in the event the LMA falls out, which is not very likely anyway, it is harder to insert it back as his head is facing downwards. It is also not used (2) when artificial ventilation is needed and some (3) surgical procedures like hernia and pelvic ops.
