langara college had a good course back when i used to teach there, via part-time studies.

i forget the old guy's name, but he taught an intro to investing/stocks. he's very knowledgeable and ppl seem to like his course.

I hope everyone had a good day today.

Holding:

LLEG was up 42% today but slid a little after lunch to finish up 6%. Still holding as thing one looks great. I'm guessing a lot of people took their profits. A lot of buying today at 18 which I believe is the new support for this one.

Watching:

FRGY up 7%

i thought i'd do some digging..and i actually do have a resource that can hookup visa shares on the 'grey' market (premarket) @ 35 p/s guaranteed.


if any of you guys know high end brokers..hit them up and see if any of them can pull strings for you.

Just make sure they have good volume trading and it shouldn't be a problem.

Depends what i'm trying to do.

Usually not tho. I am forcing myself to make more market orders these days but I find I get shafted once in a while. Like if the stock is pretty volatile but on an uptrend I make a market order and it will fill on the bottom dip and shit like that. Even if I have RT quotes it seems to do this once in a while.

What I do mostly is setup a sell stop price so if it hits, it hits and I don't really have to worry about it. But then you get probs like it goes like .002 away from your target price and then it dips.. that sucks.

Is this what you're talking about? or what? and yea like mananetwork mentioned, it's important a stock has steady volume so that your order gets filled.

I hope you guys are watching LLEG and FRGY throughout this week and the rest of the month. Should be a good ride.
