Agree...I am back to my old strategy now...much smaller exposures, getting in low...leaving room to top up and being patient for a month or two for it to pay off.

Totally....while the volatility is bliss for trading your comment above is what's needed in these times.

 

Capital preservation #1 rule ATM for me

couldn't have said it better myself..that kind of strategy pays BIG in a medium term(3+months) play with very little risk to capital.

yeah, i can empathize, its tough trading intraday-1 week time frames..depending on the instrument traded i set very wide margins in this type of volatility

..it looks great

Ha ha - this really grates my nutsack.

 

Anyway, long order in again...@ R76, if it breaks and holds resistance at 78?  I will add more and ride it up to 84.

 

I need a good trade to pay off...I am already down 20% for the year...  Damn retailers...

Ridiculous...today it flies back up to touch 77 again. How does one set a reasonable stop in this volatility!???

I agree results are due on the 4th of March

 

And we would probably get a sens announcement a bit before that as well, if the results are as good as I expect them to be

I believe FSR will be worth the wait till the results are published... definitely see some upside.

must say its been very frustrating these couple of weeks on long SAB, APN , FSR and my short on AGL

[Eagle7]

Also quite tempted.  Imperial seems oversold.

And...stopped.

 

In tell you, the volatility is crazy.  A bit bleak...wanted it to make 78.

Is it time to start shorting some gold stocks. SGL seems way overbought, or still too risky?

 

depends on the gold price.
