AKM = Be nice if it can have a break this week. Seems poised to do something.
I use public forums as a second pair of eyes. I filter out the ones that make calls that aren't suited to my trading style and I keep the ones that post on fast moving liquid securities.
I have never thought of buying in low and not disclosing. I find if I see a promising security, I give a heads up. Sure if it goes up a bit due to interest shown in it, I'm not bothered as it works both ways the interest will drive it higher also.
I always thought "in hindsight" was just buying low and dumping into the herd.
I'm more into sharing & caring. The market is a hard mistress at times and as traders we need all the help we can get.
