@slick It sure has been tough (going long) apart from one med term hold I`ve been day trading much larger amounts for much smaller %, I mean like 1.5c-02.5c on a $1.50 stock! ridiculous really but its still income and pretty much all that`s on offer..one thing I've noticed though is that really quite a lot of stocks above say 20c are algorithmically pegged to the intraday movements of the XAO, so need to have both charts running simultaneously there, on the plus side XAO has some fairly predictable movement at various hours of the day..the opening hour firstly, then the Hang Seng opens, then the midday lull, then the US futures etc etc..meh its hard work!....cant wait for a trending market again..
