Share Forum - Discuss JSE shares and join the Investor Challenge

Bin doing some interesting analysis in Excel on my Investor Challenge trades. Turns out that if I had used only R100 000 starting from 03 January I would've lost it all by the end of May. So I entered all the shares again using the R100 000 and just 2 simple moving averages which meant trading the shares on different dates but withing the January to May period and managed to turn the 102% loss into a 16.6% gain. So I thought, surely I can do better than that, so I added the ZAR/USD exchange rate which excluded 11 shares and turned the 16.6% into 89.1%. Tried different combinations of indicators, including the popular ones, and still ended up with a loss.

Edit: turned the 16.% into 58.3%

Nice discount on my full tank of fuel!

Bit of a long way to go though, just to get cheap fuel. You chasing snow?

Had a look at the ADR share price performance on the NYSE and it's been in a falling wedge since November 2017.

The danger still lurks......

While you're about it why not put all 52 in rather than leaving them at 30 odd. I'd do it for you but you won't let me :-)

At the risk of worsening your cough, Nivek, please elaborate on your kodi+placenta. While I'm familiar in a bad way with kodi I am clueless about the/it's placenta.

Will the Rand continue on it's upward journey to regain lost ground from pre Rama days or strengthen further?

14.50 here we come.

Let's see if Naspers ends at about 3360 end of Tuesday.
