Market went nicely today (for me anyway!):) Bought MCC and FLT yesterday and sold today for a nice little profit. Was looking at getting back into MCC today if the price dropped below $9.00 as it appears (to me) the current price is right on the underlying trend line. Apparently this can act...

Well apparently the US market had a big drop and is effecting everything on my watchlist in a negative way this morning. Most stocks have dropped around 2-5% already (apart from MIN for some reason??)...just wondering if this could mean some good buying oportunities on Monday morning...we'll...

nice going Turk... I looked at MMS and AMP, they look like they have a lot of upward movement in them until they reach their highs of a couple of years ago. With ACR it looks to be in blue sky territory, so a little bit risky for me. Boods

In theory, I think there is a good probability Has anyone bought anything in the last couple of days? I haven't bothered as my own number 1 trading rule (which I'm trying desperatly to stick to) is not to buy when the Dow closes in the red. That's just me, anyone else do that? I'm sure there...

Thanks for having me!:) Boods

All my numbers turned red this morning!!:eek::D Looks like the dow had a shocker last night... Boods

Yeah, Commsec had an "indicative price" of $8.15 so thats what I used. It probably pays to be sitting in front of the computer at exactly 8.00am (Perth time) to see how everything shapes up on opening, however, with my job and commitments at the moment it's just not possible. Will need to change...

out of curiosity, what does a full service broker charge for trades of say, $50k? on a side note, I mentioned previously that I was not getting my $600 worth of free brokerage from Commsec. I opened up a cash management account and am now getting free brokerage! whoo whoo! It's quite good...

PMV up about 4.5% so far today. I put in an order to buy @ 8.15 this morning before the market opened, went to the dentist, and came back to find it had gone up. You guessed it...my order didn't get filled as it opened at 8.35.:o Would have been a good little earner today! Is there a way...

This is exactly what I am trying to achieve in the future. The only reason I am only playing with $10,000 at a time is that I want to get a feel for the whole game. I will be happy making $1000 from a $50K trade. Doing it this way, it would'nt take much to overtake your earnings from your job.:)...

Thanks jaycee, I'm still a little wet behind the ears when it comes to trading but have learnt a whole lot over the last month or so. To date, I am approx $850 in front (after about a $gazillion worth of brokerage) so am quite happy with that. Haven't had a losing trade yet (only purchased 4...

Finally go around to opening up a Commsec cash account this morning so should be up and running in the next few days. The guy on the phone reckons I will still be able to get my $600 free brokerage too! MCC got 5.30% up today! would have been nice if I still had some:D Boods

Yeah I do recall you mentioning it sometime in the past...I guess I just have witnessed it myself over the last few weeks. I'm paying about $30 per trade of around 10K. I joined up Commsec as they were offering $600 worth of free brokerage, however, I think you have to open up a cash account...

Everything is moving well today so far...;) (once again, the DOW was slightly up overnight) sold out of FLT @ $13.90 for a modest profit this morning...damn brokerage is a deal killer though!:eek: Is it me, or does most of the activity happen in the first couple of hours of trading for the...

Thanks for the tip Chilliaa :) Care to elaborate just slightly? Boods

MCC has gained a little back today from it's losses over the last couple of days. FLT also coming back. Anyone got any spectacular results for today?? Boods

Might look at buying MCC again if it drops to below the $7.90 mark... Boods

Nice work. I was looking at SMX this morning too, but it has just recently had a quite large increase so I did'nt think it would keep going up at that rate. Will keep watching. How long did you hold IRE and SMX to make the $3.5K? Boods

Bought 700 FLT @ $14.11 this moring, they then proceeded to drop!:eek: currently 1.78% down. Might hold on though as both long and short term moving avgs are trending strongly upwards. Boods

I sold 1200 at $8.71 first thing this morning, but my other sell order at $9.20 obviously will hang aroung for a while longer yet. BOQ up a little over 1% ATM...Also TOL up nearly 3% with 6 x the buyers than sellers Boods
