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?
