okay...long term, leave out MSM....rather wait fro MPC. Combine that with a core of STX 40 and DBXUS.

But I also have these shares( (not MTN just yet) in a trading portfolio to sell in May. Bought at around the time of Blue Monday, and no derivatives.

@Ram, challenge for you. Do one trade on any share using warrants.

i never understood warrants...but liked the idea that your risk is "fixed"...maybe looking at it in the future for holding "overnight"

@Rams, excellent instrument to deal with events where there is a fair degree of uncertainty. Sold my mtn warrants today, cos delta was getting way to large for me i.e 90%.

Good portfolio, except MTN maybe. Retailer - The Spar chart is looking very interesting. Looks like it's gearing up for a break upwards and the timing will be excellent if it can do that with it's next results report around 11 Nov.

Yes, MTN not yet, at the right price and when this issue plays out...it would then be lowest risk for higher rewards(Intelligent Investor). So if risk still there, will be a skip skip at any price. Patience and one does not have to do a KIO, i.e averaging down to zero

Yes, Delta is at 50% , suggestive that option is "at the money".
