Now that would be the perfect day to make tons of excuses. The thing is, sound trading doesn’t work that way. The market giveth, the market taketh away. Today it took. Our job as traders is to graciously accept losses, to turn the page and to move on. YUII – YUHE International gapped down and […]

Although I would have expected MRZ.V – Mirasol Resources to close somewhat higher today, overall the stock is behaving extremely well. Last year VEN.TO – Ventana Gold was the stellar performer everybody was talking about. New stars will emerge and have their moment of fame and be in the limelight. Who knows, maybe MRZ.V is […]

Markets Remain Extremely Choppy – LIWA, GG, GWY.V

by Olivier on December 10, 2009

What can I say, markets are gapping up and down almost every single day and remain choppy. Welcome to whipsaw country. A perfect example for the markets’ choppiness would be LIWA – Linhua International that printed an almost picture perfect breakout to the upside yesterday. Today is another story though. An ugly reversal candle. Everybody […]

Gap Down – Market's Uptrend Possibly In Danger

by Olivier on November 27, 2009

Going through my charts I see lots of technical damage. Plenty of charts show ‘Hole in the Wall’ patterns. I’ve written about this phenomenon before.

Stepping Aside – Going To 100 Percent Cash

by Olivier on October 28, 2009

I sold all my positions and went to cash today. On the one hand this was a very tough decision. Today’s email went out to roughly 1.000 people. At times this can add some additional pressure. On the other hand it was an easy decision as running a website really helps being disciplined as it […]

The picture hasn’t really changed. The markets continue to be weak and technical damage is increasing day in, day out. A few stocks like WEE.V – Wavefront Energy can buck the trend, but it feels like they are really swimming against the stream. With most of my positions I am seriously starting to get the […]

Canaco Resources – CAN.V a gold mining stock doing business in Tanzania is my latest portfolio addition. I could write about the fundamentals but this is not exactly my style. So with the exception of a few things I would rather consider common sense as opposed to an in-depth fundamental approach I will stick to […]

I did compute the numbers and he paid 10.04 CDN$ for the last 2.155.300 shares he bought. So if my assumption these […]
