I'm holding. Two of the last 5 distribution days are aging. Also looks to me like volume dropped.

Let the action begin...

I started getting back into the market slowly on Mar 15... but a little heavier on gold mining stocks.....

Good call bannaz. I jumped out two weeks later keeping one position. Still waiting to get back in.

last week I bought Bank stocks, tech stocks and Gold stocks...I am still holding..will hold for at least 4 more days...

buy copper..
buy nat guess
buy financials
sell tresuries..

buy gold on weakness
be careful with tech for now..
keep your eyes open for an opportuinty to get in on Oil sometime soon

does not look like I will be buying anything next week, unless it is a down week by the end of the week.

I have not updated this thread in a while, however, this has been a real challenging year for me. I am only up 7% for the year after being up 16% earlier in the year.

I have been pretty much day trading - monitoring the markets hr by hr.

If the market has a good couple of days, meaning the Dow going up about 300 points, I would buy the vix, the opposite would mean buying into the the general markets, for the most part. However, I think everything has to be short term. This market is definitely not for the weak hearted.

Good luck!

looks like a good day to buy the vix

well since I made the above post, I made a bit of money betting against the market...now I will wait and see what happens this week before getting back in...

the markets are still very risky right now so be careful before treading..

aCCORDING TO A VERY RELIABLE aNALYST IN eNGLAND, THE DOW will FALL to 4000. Today it fell by 389 points. All HELL gun break loose SOON.

While anything is possible, I do not see that happening...however, if it does, buy because it will quickly go back up....

markets should turn around next week or two ..but still this is not a normal market..not a market for the uninitiated...be careful..

if you go in...you have to prepared to get out quickly..set buy and sell targets before you buy...but you need to be dynamic, regardless

right now market futures look positive for tomorrow:

futures

Locked in some gains by selling some positions already...
still holding on to few though

Today was a nice day on the markets..hopefully you guys made some money...

I'm thinkin' pork bellies.

What about some Banks DIH shares in Guyana as an investment?

Anyone invested in CGX Energy? The company will soon start drilling for oil in Guyana. If you have some spare change, think about putting it in this company.(Do your own due diligence.)

For my Canadian friends, I will make a post next week showing an investment with a return of 4.5% annually. It is suitable for retirees or folks nearing retirement.

RE: 4.5% return, I think this is a very good return these days for retirees..but I never recommend retiress invest in stocks unless they know what they are doing..as for bonds unless it is a guaranteed return and covered by CDIC or govermnent stay away from it.....

On a personal level ..I expect at least double digit returns on my investments...

I only invest in dividend stocks and ETFs with 50% now in fixed income. Portfolio total ROI is 38% since inception, but that translates to only just over 2% a year.
Not very good, but at least I did not lose principal.

I did put a few spare babs in banks DIH and the returns were consistent 4-5% dividends. I agree that the best thing at this point in time is dividend paying shares.

Take a look at CGX Energy - symbol is OYL - trading on TSX venture.It is a Canadian Company.

I do not play the lottery my friend...

This is a really difficult market to trade....I cannot remember when last I saw such a difficult market..very much range bound with no decisive move one way or the other...

I hear yu.. I've gambled and put some money in some Guyana stuff.... I'll see what kind of results I'll get in a year.

If this market continue like this, I may have to start selling some sugarcake to make some money.

Iman gonna be sniffin out some suga cake when I visit the mall this weekend.

Drilling for oil in Guyana will begin next week.
