Likewise Koan! I prefer to see a increase in price, strong chart, all indicators of a breakout in the making before i get all excited. I buy and ride until i figure it's run it's course then out i go. Simple really if one has the guts for such risk taking. This morning i bought fairly big into CYP.V ( as mentioned in a prior post ) 100000 shares. In at open @ $0.53 and out less than an hour later @ $0.63. Not a bad day at all considering market action. I am always prepared to hold my position if need be but i prefer to trade the breakouts, get it done attitude i guess! For the morning i am looking at PBX.V for sure, news after the bell today could do well for short term. Also watching LC'S GCU.V as their news today could also prove worthy for short term. Hope your vacation is going well! Lots of luck to all...Dave

Koan
the EPR warrants have performed too well since the 1st & if it was not for that I would be buying.
do you own any of the EPM warrants?
always interested in your take on warrants...it has awoken another side of greed in me.
by the way, I am surprised that you are not participating on the revitalized warrant board.

I've made my best money by using fundamental analysis to identify a company I think is undervalued and then accumulating shares over time, sometime at a price that is 50% of less then my initial buy. It takes patience and a months to years time frame, but have delivered me a number of 5- to 8-baggers,

ML.TO is a perfect example. I first bought in March 3, 2005 at 81 cents, grabbed more over the next few months down to the 60 cent level, sold some of the 60 cent shares for 90 cents apeice later that year, and now the rest are worth over $5 apiece. When the share price makes it up to $6, I'm going to sell some more just to claim my first 10-bagger.

One of the things I like about the markets is that there are a number of ways to make money, so you can pick the one that suits your skills and personality. I'm naturally a buy and hold type of guy, and my main investing skills are researching fundamentals and picking bottoms, so you can see why I follow the approach I do, other than occasional, often less than successful, forays into momentum investing when lured it into by people like RR.

I can see perfectly the logic of buying into strength, but buying when a stock is out of favour is usually is the best approach for me.
