i think i've said this several times on this thread. but i don't mind saying it again.

start a google account

use the finance option

start your own mock portfolio.
pick a bunch of stocks you think will do well over the next couple weeks or months..

check on it daily
that means read and pay attention to the news surrounding it... look at the charts... see if you can make sense of it..
and see how you do

don't forget to always stay in tune with the market... see what effected the price...why it went up.. why it went down.. pay attention to the major indexes and futures.. as well as how euro and asian markets performed over night... (be careful of what you hear on the news... some of it is irrelevant.. sometimes it's just noise)

if it's interesting and you somewhat understand it.. dig deeper..
read some books
browse online finance forums and communities
talk to anyone who has investing experience
or go take some securities courses

you'll be on your way shortly..

Although NDR-V has fallen from its' highs of .28 ish to .19 now. I re-bought,

Reasons:

1. nothing has changed for them, other than the market has been pounded a bit lately.

2. A pp was subscribed at .20cents recently. Current price is 19 cents.

3. Kinross/Ecometals results still pending

4. Gold at over 1100/ounce

Another guy on a stock forum pretty much summed it up perfectly,

Ecometals is changing the exercising warrant date to a much earlier date, Feb 26th. One has to wonder why Ecometals is making their warrant holders choose to exercise their warrants at the changed date before news is even released.

Possible reason and logical: The current drilling has not gone as well as hoped, maybe first drill hit nothing significant, etc, which the Management felt that if news was released, the stock would tumble hard making the warrants worthless, providing Ecometals with no incoming cash. And that is why they are forcing the warrant holders to make a decision soon.

------

And reason why I am in NDR-V, I was in this place initially because it was the most undervalued play in the region. Now, I am more in this play for the momentum effect when the main player, Kinross, releases results. Kinross's geo guys must have this gold structure figured out, so good assay results in the near future will have a very dramatic effect on NDR, and surrounding plays.


....reading what i wrote, doesn't sound as coherent as I would have liked it to be, but I am pretty tired. blah.

Test results : 5mmcf/day of natural gas from the horizontal well. No brainer that it was excellent results, as all the Utica shale gas plays went upwards of around 30% on a bad day for the markets.

My opinion? Go look back in 2008, when it was Shale gas mania and the Utica play was just discovered. Look at the valuations the market was putting on those plays.

For these Utica plays, buy on dips....and hold, and you should make a good gain (granted the market doesn't tank).

have positions in a bunch of bearish stocks now...hod, faz, spxu.

not sure why markets rallied so much. even though unemployment numbers beat expectations, we are still LOSING jobs here. that and i think TA's support a neartime correction. jmo.

what does everyone else think?

looks like DRI.V had pretty outstanding assay results on their latest drill, it should bode well for NDR.V...congrats! you going to take some profit off the table, or wait it out for upcoming news?

Any good HK stocks worth looking into lately? I've got a bunch right now, and recently have been taking a look into 2010.hk. Bought around 15000 shares at $3.23, and sold it all at $4.25.

Other ones that i have: 2899, 5, 941, 386, 1398, 2601, 175 (yes, that's Geeley...), among others.

Recommend me some!

negative on holding hnu until next winter...these etf's decay over time and you will just end up losing more and more money. i suggest you get out on the next little run that natural gas has.

Anyone here look at small pharmaceutical companies in the USA?
All of them are penny stocks, but when good news comes, they ROCKET up.
but also tank if there is bad news.

Im looking at XOMA/CTIC currently... so tempting lol.
