  4. Hi Madmax,

    Many stocks have HIGH risk profile...some like it..i do not.

    I like to have low stress in my trading...which is not easy ..but still like to try....

    AAPL,GE....are good long term hold...BUT can be had @ better price in few weeks......

  6. Hi Madmax,

    POT goes through these routine news driven selling..but it always comes back to challenge $100 area.

    I am glad that C & FNM is giving you GREEN....

    Always have a well defined "sell strategy"

  9. Hi Saleem,

    Our SOL behaved good lately. Hopefully, it will lead higher.

    Standards, Thanks for the BDI info. What is your thoughts on the BDI trend? Will it be reversed soon? Thanks.

  10. Hi Michael,

    SOL trading pattern has changed completely....NOW it is small step each day..which is better technically.....this establishes a strong base & defined uptrend.

    Patience is virtue sometimes.....
