Well, I just hope the markets remain volatile with big intraday swings to enable us to make some money. :)

Earnings season. There are enough stocks which exhibit volatility for now. I used to trade gaps from earnings hits or miss. Recently I have been devising new trading strategies and writing new scripts - now I have scanners to identify other potential momentum plays and stocks being targeted for institutional collection. The best stocks to trade are those that have been targeted for accumulation or distribution and when that has been completed, the Insto player would signal to the market that it is ripe for moves. These momentum moves have very good hitting odds if one gets it right.

when market in bull, all say buy for long, and when it got reversed, all start panicked. What's the logic and the stand when you get in that time?

Actually I don't feel bullish on sgx all the while :o

Use a bit of ones capital and punt.
If gain, then brag about it. :D Otherwise, keep quiet. :(
Personally witnessed someone losing hundreds of thousand on margin.
Today, Straits Times report sisters went to court because losing millions on margin.

OMG! I didn't expect US to skyrocket today.

I was expecting some profit taking and a correction.

This is the power of cheap money. When all others are yielding near 0 interest rate, stocks will still be sought after.

Because of greed, money can also kill family ties.

Maybe let put it in this way. If the market drop at least 10%, I will be taking action. If it doesn't and you are damn right about this, it's even GREAT for me as an investor.

I am still on the bullish stance at the market currently as the market is nowhere to be bloated in term of valuation.
