Damn it! I'm buying again on Monday and I was hoping to get some cheap shares   :frustrated:

On the plus side, my account is going to look good on paper!

Yes I know, I'm sorry, enthusiasm sometimes gets the better of me, I'll try to tone it down. :)

ZAR broke through the 9.70 resistance to 9.54. Hopefully my PNC and MTA will like it.
I started here with nothing and still have most of it left.
