SGX

There's no need to test anything at all... Not everyone is as smart as you.

          Most people simply follow habit and long-time conditioning...

                  For instance after a dog, or parrot etc, has been conditioned to do bark at certain things,

                        it will automatically always bark at those things without any second thought...

                                the same principle can also be applied to humans too,

                                      largely with the same results, except those with better brains...

Continuous trading should start in April.

 

The implementation of whole-day trading is dependent soley

      on the outcome of of the SGX/ASX tie-up.

        Thus, no tie-up confirmation, no whole-day trading...

                which in turn means good lunches for brokers...

I don't know if I am imagining it,

    but it has crossed my mind that the recent STI falls

      could have a correlation with the impending full-day trading on 1 March...

            Maybe with the latest SGX announcement, the market may be in for a rebound?    

 

I believe the merger is to INCREASE trading volume, that's the  most simple explaination. BUT, global now focus on interest rate hike and tackling commodities price, so what is the catch? commodities counters usually very high volume trade becos of liquidity... historically, SGX never cross $10.00 per share.

 

Maybe they see there's not much retailers' interest in the market, volume like #%^* , might as well spare the brokers the pains of having to guard their posts as it is more likely that there will be even less trades between 1230-1400hrs from the retailers.

 

Uncertainty floating in thin air .... so, triangle break up / down. nowaday talk about rectangle and diamonds... so super chartist think about bats and butterfly pattern, whatever it is, the one who figure out the odd will be RICH 

 

It is also probable that it is delayed till after the coming elections...

Singapore Exchange says “other fishes” if ASX merger fails

Singapore Exchange (SGXL.SI) chief executive said on Friday he sees other targets for mergers if its proposed US$7.9 billion ($10.1 billion) takeover of Australian bourse operator ASX (ASX.AX) fails. “There are other fishes,” CEO Magnus Bocker said in response to a question posed to him during a seminar.   The planned SGX-ASX merger, the first major consolidation of Asia-Pacific exchanges, faces regulatory hurdles, including getting Australia’s parliament to lift a 15% ownership cap on the ASX and approval from the country’s Foreign Investment Review Board (FIRB).

 

Great! Those keep losing one will had more time to lose more and less time to think properly like casino (if u r a trader, u need some break/rest to focus and plan). But it good for those who can trade/invest during their lunch time 12 to 1 mosty. But those broker mc rate will increase, poor things.

Wow, that must be great news for the poor brokers...

    At least they can look forward to a couple more months to go 'jalan-jalan',

          or go to the gym, or just chit-chat with friends at the eastern seaside during lunch....
