Colin,
What do you think?
Should they buy or not?
Should they average down?
Should they wait and see?
What is the right course of action here? Please advise, I am sure many will take your view seriously.
Regards,
HC

HC,
Traders are expected to discuss their views regarding stocks -- not to give advice to others.

Colin,
In that case I agree with your view.
And I also agree that my view expressed in post#2937 is the crappiest and lousiest I have ever made in a particular stock. By suggesting to others that the stock is worth considering at this moment I believe is like digging a big hole, baiting people to jump in. It's a lousy ramp job.
The view expressed in that post is grossly wrong! A BIG mistake!
Cheers.
HC

I hope that it is your genuinely held view and not a ramp job.
Either way, why buy below 3.73 -- while BOL is still in a down-trend?

Colin,
I reckon someone has alerted you on this thread? Anyway, I have made some suggestions earlier on here and here, but I have a feeling whatever I was trying to achieve had not been well received and was shouted down by the those with vested interest... well, if you can't detect the cynicism in my post then I am not going to explain.
Cheers.
HC

TAwise to me BOL is forming a Base at 350 and this could COULD be considered to be an aggressive entry point BUT
one should take an Account of d'Season ie It's Tax Loss Selling Time so there MAY be a Surplus of Sellers.
It should be well noted that NO ONE is selling at a Profit down here at 350.and I too FEAR for d'Fresh Meat hitting d'BOL on cfd's and such thinking this is for the Fab Turnaround.
Your Entry Price at 73 is Excellent reading of this shares Entry Point,HC.I'm figuring that the Tax Loss Selling will pretty much at least Dampen d'enthusiasm of it getting there/or going much beyond that.
NB 373 is less than 10 percent run from 350.Lotta risk for a measly gain.Unless ya inta GEAR ,a Curse.
*** the above is from Dug, who is still doing time in his sin bin for biting  (cheers mate!)
Dug, I reckon a base will take much longer to form and it is much safer to wait for time to heal some pain first, anyway, your point on tax implication is worth a thought.

HC,
I agree with your earlier analysis:
Today's intraday spike to below 3.50 could be a "good sign" indicating the final "dump" by those who want to exit the stocks. But it's best not to come to this conclusion just after one day. Watch it for a few days first.
But you now seem to be putting forward the opposite view:
Technically, buying at 3.50 is not a bad idea. If you have bought at 4.40, what is 3.50? There's a saving of 70c! But just imagine the dividend you will be getting! Just imagine when the share price rebounds! There's a potential gain of 25%! You can't be that dumb as to ignore this 25%! Can you?
For those knocker to this stock, I have this to tell them - if you have no idea what investment is all about, it's better that you shuddup and let the expert with plan and planning, and planning with growing rich in long term tell you the virtue of buy low sell high - if the stock price can drop from 4.43 to 3.62 in one day, surely it is possible for it to jump from 3.62 back to 4.43 in another day. In fact I think it is possible for it to fly, ie, from the current 3.50 to 5.50. No sweat!
This is an investment grade stock that I think you should take a second look. If not, a third look. Don't miss out!
Am I missing something?

Colin,
Yes, I think you missed detecting the negativism spreading through out the post and my venting of frustration...

Holy Cow
I didn't perceive any negativism towards you
To what precisely are you referring?
Hilarius
I come in peace to share my thoughts and to shine my candle light on possible long term opportunities

Hilarius,
I was referring to post#2973 and comments within. I was not in anyway referring to you or any of your posts.

HC,
Other readers are entitled to disagree with you, but any personal attacks should be reported to me. Just don't try a stunt like that again. If your sarcasm was not clear to me, it may not be clear to other readers.
Regards,
Colin

Colin,
With due respect I have received quite a few emails telling me they know fully what I was saying... they didn't want to "expose" themselves in this thread.
If you think this stunt is a bad one, ok, I'll take it. But I believe you have got your priority wrong here. Remember you are running a charting software & services here. You have responsibility to your users as well as to people who visit this forum.
If others are ramping and promoting their stocks in the past without really good reasons, they are reprimanded. I don't see any difference in this case.
I am in my view trying to provide a more critical look at a stock and highlighting some of the greatest "NOT TO", such as "averaging down" on a loser to others who may not see the risk they are taking on.
If you are too busy or too blinded to notice what I am trying to get at, I guess I am beat. Not by them. But by you.
I reckon at the end of the day, we all deserve what we get as a course of our action.
In this case - what you did not do!
I believe this thread has taken more than enough of my time and your time and clearly this stock doesn't worth the trouble and the angst that I have gone thru'... it's a shame.
Really!
HC

HC,
I think you are missing the point. Your post was irresponsible. Most readers browse the Forum rather than read every post and can easily gain the wrong impression. Some did and I don't want to see this happen again.
If you feel that someone is ramping, please report it. They will be dealt with appropriately.
Regards,
Colin
