Learned that the hard way last year, was up $4k and got greedy didn't lock any profits and got burned hard. Never will make that mistake again!

ps: anyone have experience with Scotia i-trade, thinking of switching to it from BMO investor line.

& Tag Oil
I'm eyeing on tag oil myself as to when I should start getting in. Recent news gave some very tempting information.

Anything in particular you don't like about BMO Investor Line? I was actually thinking of switching to BMO from Questrade, because Questrade just sucks balls with their orders placement/execution. Scotia iTrade seems to have really compelling commissions and margin rate for someone who has good amount of assets and actively trades the market.

That article seemed more like a pump job. To give a unrisked price of $ 225. Insane.

Even then, Tag is very overpriced. Projected exit of 1500 boe/day for 2010 and with a market cap of 180 million. Insane.

More than half of that market cap is likely due to their blue sky shale property, which isn't being drilled at the moment I believe.


& MER-V...Good drill results and it falls 10%..Go figure.

Any thoughts on CAN-V 7seven? I figure it has more downside potential than upside during this decision making period. I'll probably wait after the ruling is made on the 28th?

Talking about mer-v,

That you still sold for a profit, because it fell pretty hard.

Really? I never saw a question. What was it about?

An individual posted on HSM about ROZ.V.

And it looks like a legit stock. The IPO had quite a few institutional buyers, from all around.

ROZ is drilling for oil in Australia, but prospective oil in the ground is more than Tag's (Although Tag is more established, with infrastructure, etc) & Remember, Tag Oil had a target of $10, risked valued of $17 ish & sky high potential unrisked of $225 as per GMP

ROZ has a target of $5 from Macquarie & will be drilling fairly soon.

Current Prices: ROZ - 1.60/Share
Warrants - .74/share

Edit: Side Note: Looks like there's an iceberg seller at 1.60

& As always, do your own due diligence.

eh, I think its' just because gold is up and seems to be pulling up most gold stocks.

& a technical bounce as well off the 50EMA.

Still waiting on the sidelines to see how this pans out. Too much risk to enter.

thanks for the tip on ROZ..the potential is huge but I don't like trading w/o technicals...
maybe i'll buy a small position...
I asked why Dec - May is oil season?

As for CAN, I don't regret selling for a loss...everything is so uncertain right now..I'm sure there's more money to be made in the future with less risk..

sold Telus yesterday near the day's high....and now it's crashing
I have no idea what's going on...couldn't find any significant news...
I'll buy back in at the end of the day...

Similar to Natural Gas, it's a seasonal thing. So investors, depending on their risk aversion, will pick stocks in the area because there's a higher chance of it going up, on sheer speculation of supply/demand.

Edit:

& Picked up some CIN, not sure if it was a good enter or not since it could fill that gap, but couldn't resist.
