@ojazy chances that you will only pick winning stocks, and not the losing ones are very slim. Add trading costs that are based on the whole transaction, not your profit!


ahaa!that i get sparky,but its all a risky venture isn't it? Whether im in it short term or long term.so how would you go about it?
My strategy as a begginer would be to buy stocks that have good speculative hype and wait on them to soar in price,sell when i feel it cant rise any more and showing signs of declining,to lock down my profits(trading costs taken into account)..and id sell those stocks that dont live up to their speculative hype once they fall by kedo 2percent cutting my losses....what say you?

this isn't grammar school,is it Jerry?...that said,im already doing fantacy market,i wouldn't dive into the market bila research,so this is my research.i appreciate the ADVICE...could you ADVISE ,me some more?

>>settlement of trades normally take 4/5 days(see cdsckenya.com). So you may not buy and sell same in a day.


i might be wrong,but i read someuwhere that it takes a day now?(24hrs)..i think it was on the cfc online share trading platform?

That was about getting your money after selling shares it was not about settlement period. Settlement period is still 4 days I think...although there is a way you can escape settlement period but I will rather not raise that issue again. Just do the right thing.

The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.
