I don't think long is a good option in the current environment... don't try and catch a falling knife. Did u make lotsa moolah when said to go short SBK? I believe BIL has much down side to come, target R153. I'd also like to hear what C says.

I agree. PPC approached major support around 36 and one should probably keep an eye on it for the next little while before taking a long position - I don't know if the public have approved of the plant expansion in Riebeeck-West which also might be a point worth taking. I've always been a bit scared of mining stocks as i'm quite young, have limited capital and am pretty new to the futures market. Having said that, I'm short EXX. When there is a possible Merger on the cards isn't it wise to short the predator (BHP) and go long on the prey (RIO)? I read that under a long-short hedge fund strategy. Thanks for your comment and in advance for your replies.

To the voices of reason. Thanks. Got out of my Bil long. Even made 3k after I was substantially down. My greed or lets call it unfeasible hope almost made me stay in (again).
