ah, ticker tape...those where the days.. ...interesting that Livermore hated tips ...ref: Reminiscences of a Stock Operator is a 1923 roman à clef by American author Edwin Lefèvre which is the thinly disguised biography of Jesse Lauriston Livermore. The Wall Street Journal described the book as a "classic", it was ranked #15 on 'Fortune's 75 The Smartest Books We Know', and Alan Greenspan said it is "a font of investing wisdom."

I guess RW would not have held during AMA;s long decline (the gist of his post to blindfury)... ...as to the more interesting forward looking view, I'd be Jolly interesting to hear RW's wise perspective on whether he thinks the downtrend has reversed... ....I agree with your perspective (research and stick with view on tiddlers...mostly lol)

still loss making...indebted...wot to like???? ..aaoo/dyo research and thinking ...no advice intended

...v humble ...but good PoV for investor?

wise words...worth all of us digesting ..enjoy the rest of the w/e (what a wonderful Oct treat...warm and sunny...feels a bit like what I imagine the golden era pre WW1...there may be trouble ahead...tin hats on)

u were right...well done

I suspect it depends a bit on the share and its character at that time imv... ...20% stop would have clobbered us in gbo when cycling around 20p... & also true for rgs, dtg, tri, sag in their early dithering phase...need courage of conviction in yr research here and hang on ...also would have knocked folk (incl me) out of abm today...indeed in abm, I shd have doubled down... ....also plenty of really beaten up stocks like dqe, rem, rrr, ecr, here & avm (as a small fraction of large set), suggest it's best to spot when to go against the herd and not sell...indeed double/treble/quadruple down ....BUT for the less flakey shares, I agree with you in general...ride momentum/trend and buy into strength...like gbo, rgs, sag, dtg after initial jitters and as the narrative became clearer to wider set of investors (and perhaps dwha now lol...dream on jolly) ...gn & have a fine w/e

appreciated & gl

go well & good luck

say bye to 50s...imv...may never cu again lol

not a bad call imv...abm has a few little challenges to face lol

fractions of a penny will be irrelevant in 2015 (fingers crossed) lol ,,enjoy a great sunny warm w/e

..

good day at the office...third out

but this is a Jolly easy call to make imv lol

but you bought at close to bottom ...I was way out and didn't have courage to double down

v small punt alas... ...but happy for the braver folk lol

selling below the bid aint encouraging Jolly top up

...though ptv is at least as risky as this imv lol

riddler may have called this risky punt wrong lol... ...but early days...could still go t*ts up
