na babyboy, dont give up. just heed some of the legit warnings coming through in the various postings. it seems you are "betting" (in the true sense of the word) your stake on one horse. who knows if it has a game leg?rather split your "stake" into a few parcels and selectively pick based on TA, long term investment value, or whatever you decide is your own mandate and risk profile.if you not sure, sit on the sides and watch for a while. dont expect someone to give you a "hot tip" as while that may make you some money it is just as likely (maybe more) to lose your all of it. research. make your own calls. also, seems you need a better stop loss strategy. 50% knock on 250K hurts like heck. if you had stopped out earlier (say 20% on geared (read more risky!) instrument such as warrants), you would not be so far down. takes 100% profit to remake a 50% loss. think on that. and if you still new to it all, recommend you only trade shares themselves or MAYBE instalment shares. learn the basic first with your shirt still in one piece. keep your emotions out of it, head only. DARN, i am rambling on!! ;)
