Make sure when you stay at the deck don't ever talk to the syndicate there, and if you don't plan to watch your stock "live" go to big brokerage house i.e. citibank, hsbc etc..

yes.

Any stock you will play for short term ( 3 to 5 days) definitely there is a puppet master. Invest only for long term blue chip only. crap stock like mining, oil, etc. you better have a very good informer.

oldblue,

some advice.

the only best way is to actually start buying and selling. get a real broker, not online, para you can exchange views and ask questions. hopefully, patient sya when you start to trade and monitor the market, you will get a feel of it. like you will know when a stock falls to a good price to buy. basic strategy yun, buy low, sell high. later, if you have more confidence and information, you can buy high, and sell even higher.

read the business pages too. and internet sites. information is the key. later you will be familiar with the other aspects of trading, like psychology, spotting trends, etc.

morrissey_05,

igor,

you can check out www.pse.org.ph (that's the website of the philippine stock exchange) i think there is a list of brokers there. or you can check out the electronic billboard na naka post sa harap ng SM Mega, the building with the theaters. nag ad yata PSE dun with a telephone number you can call.

by your 2nd question, do you mean pooling the money from some of your friends and investing in the market? actually, me and some of my friends did that for awhile. pero honor system na lang. tska i hope you can agree which stock to buy. if you have a friend who is investing at pwede ka bumakas sa kanya, why not.

but nothing beats learnng on your own bec if you lose, at least you have only yourself to blame. consider it tuition for an MA, or a course on the stock market

Redhorse, Van wilder. How did you guys find out about mrc,stn and rlt? I usually trade in blue chips and 2nd liners; never heard of those stocks before. My broker never mentioned those to me either.

you need a live ticker, and you must be quick, be very very quick...

without insider information it would be very hard to get info on these third-line stocks... i love trading in mining since its very risky and mataas ang returns, pero i make sure na calculated yun risk... MRC and STN is based on observations... one in a thousand yan ganyan kaya dont expect it to happen everyday...

ganito gawin mo...

play only 5-10% (or less) of your money sa stocks...

then ang breakdown para medyo safe yet medyo masmataas ang returns kaysa blue chips ganito...

40% >> blue chips
35% >> second liners
25% >> thirdliners

ako...

15% blue chips
25% second liners
60% third liners...

imagine the risk... pero often times doon ako sa unang breakdown, once in a while nilalaro ko para mamaximize returns and minimize ang risk... actually im going to establish a funds (mutual/hedge) ako mag-manage pero yun returns sa investor... may cut lang ako pati isang funds naman na fix ang interest...

hindi broker ang dapat magaling diyan... dapat ikaw... kasi hindi niya pera yun nilalaro... dapat magaling diskarte... through time ka rin gagaling... sa stocks ITS NOT HOW MUCH YOU GAIN, BUT HOW LITTLE YOU LOSE... dont be afraid to take some losses in order to get a bigger gain... kung down ka ng 5-10% yun stocks dont expect it to recover agad so ditch it...

tips for this week...

buy on weakness again of mining stocks because of a new mining act that would pull down the stock price, the correcting of gold prices would also pull it down. but remember that mining especially AT and Px/B is more of copper than gold mining and copper prices are not slowing down...

enter at 1.70 for px, 6.6-6.9 on AT, and 1.8 at pxb... ma and mab... dunno yet if its good to invest here... please do remember that AT is still not yet making money...

on banking... BDO would SOON buyout or takeover equitable pci... but i think BDO price is already over its real value... so medyo delikado... no lost here except siguro time-value ng money... i dont think BDO would crash hard... it would go up or stay the same... so if you dont make money here the worst is losing because of broker's fee lang... which is 3% (for buying and selling na ito) at most... but the thing here is... what if it does climb up more?

is it the time of MA/B na? MAlay natin... although mukhang MAlabo... pwedeng MAlapit na rin...

dont get PCOR (petron)... some brokerage (even good and trusted brokers and brokerage) would recommend people to get it but DONT! why? hello ethanol! and brokers are trying to sell their shares, but konti lang are getting it...

so whats the NEXT BIG THING sa Phisix? kung ALIN ang naiba! its the next play after PLDT... sure hit, just a matter of time... got some already!

disclaimer: walang magagalit sa mga tips ko... my tips ARE VERY RISKY! so discretion niyo yan... yan based on my info... i made some good hits but i also made a lot of BAD BAD hits...

goodluck! dont test the limits of your gains and always minimize your lost...

took a look at the charts, again.

PX- its indeed consolidating between 1.60 and 1.80. hopefully, there is momentum to push this beyond the 1.80 level. and both MACD lines are above O. nice, very nice.

PXB - 1.80 sounds like a good entry point. i am also hoping it would test its old high of around 2.35. but my only problem is that the MACD lines are below 0.

AT - 6.60 to 6.90 is good. but if its going to test its old high of around 7.50, pang tsupitero lang talaga. small gain, fast in, fast out. but if it breaks out of this range with big volume, that should give it a lot of momentum to go above 7.50.

MA and MAB - PX at PXB na lang

BDO - banking stocks move very slowly. its recent support level of P36 became its resistance. personally, i would wait a little here.

[empy]

ano ba yung second liners and third liners?

is that another way to say midcaps and small caps?

[van_wilder]

yup

[van_wilder]

it would be very hard to get px at 1.6... kasi if mag 1.64-1.66 yan dami na agad kukuha... incl. me...

AT, yes tsupitero talaga... pero for me 50/50 50% tsupitero for instant gains... 50% long term... like px before...

i dunno with BDO but parang nag-aalangan pa rin ako

[scalpel]

Van, What's your target price for the "next big thing"? and what's your entry price? taas na kasi. Thanks

[van_wilder]

ALI - 10.50... target price? 11.50 if ever siguro... that's almost 10percent na... so good na yun... small plays na ganyan in the long run is much bigger... why next big thing? kasi fave siya ngayon ng foreigners laruin so madali ma-liquidate... you can easily sell it at your target price...
