EVERYBODY STOP
Read Hedge Fund Market Wizards, How winning traders win. By Jack D. Schwager

I've read all of his other books too. Top reads.

The biggest thing I take away from all of them is RISK Control.

Also, if you have a fundamental argument/hypothesis , you can use that for a long term idea. TA can aide you to get the best entry.

RISK and position sizing controls, loss and most of all emotions.

Combine Fundamentals, Technical Analysis, RISK Control and Emotions and you are a super star trader...

bobbono77,

I disagree with remo(sorry mate to be controvercial again) in that there is no place for fundamental guessing and star gazing on a TA board. Why not keep that for those on the iii circus eh where it belongs?

Also, is it just me but I also dislike posters that like to publicise the monetary side of their profitable trades. It adds no value at all and is just petty gloating.


I think we will see 230 today per my earlier post, if only on a spike.

I would want to see a sign that the buying pressure (over 10 million traded today) has subsided or something to indicate the "smart money" is exiting.

Anyone else got some thoughts on what to look out for, I don't have DMA and I work during the day, so it is difficult to see what is really happening.

All I know is that my free shares (been in since 11p and took my capital out long ago) have had a great run, and I would welcome the chance to bank the profit at the top (for once) and re-buy at a lower level to increase my number of shares.

Alternative Strategy, If held and not traded:

Sell 5000 shares at 329p = £16,450

A bit of trading could potentially net me some £7,099

if only it was this simple !!!

There is a fundamental section in the forums. If people want to put fundamentals then its fine.
Yes its a TA board but i have put a section for the fundamentals although its a small section
A lot of people would like to know about the fundamentals side of things on penny shares. Me personally ,dont care.

From Jackozy's thoughts, it could go something like this:

Sell at 230p (gap resistance)
Buy back at 187p (61.8% for a wave 2)

Sell at 298p (peak of Wave 3)
Buy back at 256p (38.2% retrace from 298p to form wave 4)

Sell at 329p (peak of 5th wave)

A working example form my own freebies:

GKP TRADE STRATEGY
Sell 5000 shares @ 230p = £11,500
Buy back @ 187p = 6149 Shares

Sell 6149 shares @298p = £18324
Buy back @ 256p = 7157 Shares

Sell 7157 shares @ 329p = £23,549
Increase = £12,049
% increase = 104.77 %


Alternative Strategy, If held and not traded:

Sell 5000 shares at 329p = £16,450

Hi F4T, anyone who knows my postings from the original Chartsview days will know I was not intending to gloat and only posted the figures as an illustration of what I should have done when it reached 460p, e.g. sell and buy back.

I like your straight talking approach, so don't take my comment as a rebuff of your statement, just a positioning and context exercise to realign your perception of me

Whilst I tend to agree with the Technical points you raise, fundamentals must be borne in mind when it can make a game changer happen.
GKP over the last few years has often fooled many TA experts, only with hindsight have they then seen the full picture, which helps no one in real time.
I say this because if we are all expecting it to hit 230p and retrace, it will likely over shoot this just to spite your charts and theories....lol

Food, I respect your views.
From a strictly TA perspective today could be a critical day.
If the gap closes at 230 and holds above it, then the rise might have more fuel in the tank.
I see that 246p and 260p have been quoted as targets.
Should it spike to 230p in the morning rush and then drop (like it did to 204p just 48 hrs ago), then we're looking at a backtest of 217p at least, possibly overshooting to 210p, and maybe a trip back to both 204p and then 187p on Jacko's wave count.
