Can't really time the mkt so why not relax and ride the mkt cycle. |

Thanks Startrader for the advice & examples. Sometimes you understand the theory but when it's time to exit, not decisive enough. Many of us tend to overtrade when mkt is bullish, so when it suddenly reverses, we are reluctant to act immediately. The most important thing to learn is to stick to our strategy & act accordingly, not to be emotionally affected, especially in recent unstable market.

Susan, is okay. Never too late to revise strategies. :)
Riding the wave to maximise profit or to minimise losses are the one which we must always observe. With this , you will definitely able to have the ability to control how you trade. No worries, if for example the stock you bought has climbed to the exit price it that you have sold. Example:
Stock A , bought at 2.0 , sold at 2.06, it climbed to 2.14. If you still able to get the uptrend signals, you can eventually buy back above 2.10 price though it is a risk there it will drop by to the price you sold. But at the end of the day, you already profited from the price you sold. This is one scenario.
Another scenario is, move on to another stocks , like rotational play.
Or if the emotional still can't get through you, sell some and keep the balance to exit at the right price.
I understand this is always what happened to retail investors like us as it happened to me when I first traded the stocks. I could not sleep over it when the price moved after I sold it. But one thing to take note, there is always opportunity in the market for you to earn another day.
Hope this help everyone to trade a better trade !
Thanks, Star-Trader

| Ya seems like most trusts more stable last week. I should have monitor earlier and not let my gain turn into losses, that's not right even if intend to hold long term. If can take profit earlier, now can buy back liao & earn 1 round now. Must be more alert next time, in case it "sleep" too long & tie up my money |

If your observations is correct than on Monday the price can sustain despite the sharp fall in US and Europe on Friday. Big boys or institutions will hold out for the push. If prices fall on Monday then it is just scattered buyers who run at the first sign of panic.
Based on the recent price pattern and volume I tend to think that price will continue to hold. I am not selling my lot yet.

I wonder if it is a coincidence. It has been doing well after listing but eversince it is added into the STI Components, it drop all the way. The same thing happened to Cosco when it is added as a STI Component, drop all the way until both exchange positions. After Cosco dropped out, it surge all the way.  |

Retail sector forecast fastest growing for the rest of the year(for property), flavour of the year! Again buy based on valuations.

Its known to be when UP very fast , it can also fall very fast sometimes :)
Place your bets.
A bit exciting , but up also got saturation one.
chiong..
For the record, it HIT $1.91 this morning.
Wonder why and how it can go that low................................
The China property curb again ?
Perhaps due to the control, mall will be a bit more difficult to sell off to make money................ like capital land, buy shopping complexes and hope to sell high later................but already bought high how to sell higher with such loan difficulty by buyers even if they want to.................
Capitalland might download its Shopping property to Capmallasia ..like it let go Raffles City to it..when its finance seem take a hit..that time...

this massive drop in prices might be cause by people shorting the counter. i believe they might cover their position
I got 2 lots at $2.30 feel like puking now.
This is REAL $1.99 is COMING !! :)
maybe becos contra players exited this counter after a few days of consecutive dropping... if IPO price is at 2.12 and currently only 2.02...hmm... i shld think limited downside. hope my deduction is right!
Y is this share dropping? It is suppose to have a good track record. somemore it has made profit for 2010Q1.
Once drop below 2 means bye bye alr!~
