You seem like a desparate gambler in serious trouble. Please put your money in unit trusts and let the professionals do the trading for you.

QD, you need to have some kind of reason for choosing those stocks.If the only reason is that theyre down now and you hope theyre gonna go up, you are going against the trend.You need to do some analysis to back up your feeling. Do a lot of reading and watch for good advice on this forum and the net. Youll always see what people are doing and what theyre punting on this forum. Chartist is busy with a program where he intends to display trades or possily good trades. Take advice from these postings on the forum. Id suggest you stay liquid until then. Good luck!

I seem to have stumbled across the Carnival City Casino chat room by mistake...QD my only hope is that you did not borrow money for this ill-advised hobby.
