Personally, I always try to be scared of losing. I will never never behave as tthough I have a lot of guts when I trade or punt in the market. So guts is out. Fear of losing, yes. And that is why I always advocate people, especially beginners, not to bet big if it is their hard-earned money.
 Of course it's okay with those where losing a lot is not a problem at all.

thanks geojam, for what you're trying to do. :)

am quite upset and crying right now actually, but i won't vent my feelings here because it is not right, nor proper behaviour to. (yesss, fine, i'm very weak)

had known for quite a while that ipunter did not like me, but that's ok. it's life anyway; you cannot like everyone all the time. This is a forum for investors tho, and investors are first and foremost rational people. So i'll simply stay out of his path, and he can stay out of mine. Prior apologies to the rest of the forumers here for having to witness something this ugly.

ok, gonna go off now. thanks yea geojam, your kindness is really much appreciated. :)

and thanks geojam, you read my post rightly: that if the market looks bearish, it makes complete sense to get out.

what is so wrong about the above? it is smart, and it does take guts to get out when everyone else is blindly getting in.  

wherein did you read an inference of sarcasm?

sorry, connection got d/ced.

from a detached perspective: it takes a lot of courage, and understanding of the market, in order to be able to move in-and-out so fast. Pure TA traders move with the wind. like singaporegal. it means one is able to call the bulls and bears rightly, to see the trends when everyone else is just following herd mentality.

sorry if you don't think that's worthy of respect. because i do.

i had meant no offence at all.

neither red nor white. it all depends on the food and/or ambience. for whites i like the gerwurtztraminer... only the ones from the alsace region tho; the australians and NZies have been trying to create it, but they've only got the fragance but not the taste (lychee and floral--if you have lady friends, i highly recommend it, they'll take to it easily).



Italian reds are spicy; takes some getting used to. they're good for cabernets tho, you can actually taste the chocolate! heehee.

(note all the above is just my opinion; i don't bother much with what the experts say. if i like it, i like it, don't care if it's a cheapo two-bit wine; if i don't, no amount of 'expert' opinion is gonna change my mind) 



hehe. actually i've been shifting away from wines already. starting on sake now. less of a headache. tried this absolutely lovely one that tasted of cherry blossoms. *ooh....*

no blue cheeses! o_0



sheesh. ok ipunter, you hunter/scalper/cowboy....abt how many counters do you play each time then? or does it all depends? you really have guts man....*pei fu*

Hey elf,

Nice to know that you like wines too. I'm no wine expert but I love having wines with my food. I also love having them with blue cheeses....  :)

I don't 'hold' any counter. I don't do position trading at all, but only punt and scalp.

speaking of wines, my wine fridge is like, full. need to clear. sian. which you like? (no, i'm not giving away, sorry. :P) and what's the one you bought? any good? red, white, champ, or dessert? *kaypoh*

haha, i remember coming back from italy....with seven bottles of wine snugly smuggled in my suitcase. and the only reason why i had seven was 'cos suitcase too small, and no more clothes to wrap them up in! o/w would have bought more. bwah hahaha.

btw, ipunter, may i ask, how many counters do you hold on average each time?

Yes, having both TA and FA is ideal. For those using TA, I believe if you pick at least one stock for long term, your rewards will be even better
