Ok, Ok, I spoke to my imaginary friend Barren Wuffet, OCE needs to climb and SGL fall. Put alert on SGL for R8, if it hits that I am back there again....  ::)  :-[  :-X

I,m hoping that it will fall back to R8. I sold my real holdings yesterday. Was scared what could happen with the labour issues.

Been very sorry so far :'(

No, u are correct in selling when you feel it was right. It could have gone down today or even tomorrow. What did u buy / Sell at?

will have to check actuals, but I sold at 9.7, my average cost then was 9. So I Made a slight profit. My first buy was at 12, but I bought alot after they fell to get my buy average down.

I was major down on this stock as some stage, but kept on buying more. So decided to sell and get out while I was in slight profit with the strikes looming. Think I was like 30% down at some stage.

Was not good for sound sleeping. But I will buy them back once the shit is sorted. So I actually hope there are some issues so the price drops, if I can buy back at 8 that will be a major bargain.

Just check this, CML & OCE. If you bought in the beginning and sold say after 8 years, you would have made next to nothing. Or is I missing something?

Ja, it's a graph thing, just like a mercator projection of the earth distorts the poles and Greenland looks so big it's scary.  :D

Check out the green highlighted area, the dates and closes for OCE in my gif below.  8)
The gain is 548,57% between Sept 1 1993 and Jan 1 2002 !

Yeah jaDEB. Unfortunately the shares I picked for the challenge I hold in my real account. Also, unfortunately I cannot sell the dam stuff on the challenge or in my real portfolio. I can only watch my money disappear as I would sell CML asap before she corrects big time. She is overweight, overbought and over valued and over some other stuff.
SARS  :frustrated:

LON    Lonmin plc   2747   3629   5473   50.81%   R150,343.31   14.14%

TKG    Telkom SA SOC Ltd   30528   1305   2262   73.33%   R690,543.36   58%


Jadeb feel a bit left out that you neglected to mention my 50.81 on lon and Jaymeb,s 73.33 on TKG.

The thing that makes me bit sick to the lowest part of my stomach, is that I was looking to buy TKG for my personal portfolio at 12.50 and some know it all (Wayne Mc currie) on Moneyweb said that he sees it going below 10.00, So I left it.

i no longer follow moneyweb

I'm thinking you still haven't missed the bus tgg.

I'm keeping TKG & ATL for a new 3yr cycle started just recently.  LON, APN, CML on the other hand, I think is going down. 

Oh! do stay calm, I'm a professional amateur after all. 

MND also not too bad and on SGL I'm clueless.

Didn't we have a ranking list for companies somewhere or was that just part of a blog, can remember - information overload.
