Check with your broker on how to buy Canadian stocks from the US. You should try to stick to TSE listed stocks for now because the VSE and ASE are a little too crazy for foreigners . . . heck they're too crazy for us. For foreigners I must stress always use limit orders. Never place a market order . . . you will definitely end up paying too much. A few stocks that you can buy on the US exchanges that can still make good moves up are DROOY, TVX, and KGC (Kinross). Lola:)

If you want to follow my trades in realtime Jon, I can usually be found at the following thread. We all post our trades in realtime over there both buys and sells. Subject 28652 Also when we make a comment on a stock we state whether or not we currently hold a position in the stock so people will know if we have a bias or not and can decide whether they think we're right or full of crap. It makes a big difference to know an individual poster's current position in a stock when they post their comment. Also it keeps us honest. Here'e some lingo we use regularly over there . . . PHPI = poster has personal interest (poster has a position in the stock, it can be long or short but most of us are longs) PHNPI = poster has no personal interest (poster currently does not hold a position in the stock) Another thing we like to keep things professional and friendly so we don't take crap from any posters . . . not even the ones we really really like . . . not even the gurus . . . actually we don't have gurus . . . just regular people sharing ideas. We have alot of sharp cookies over there. Lola:)
