don't be surprised

Check what Tweets has posted,I bring this to your attention that UGL could be in for a very ruff,and I mean ruff ride.Without freaking people do not be surprised that it could go lower than $10.Apart from the sound fundamentals that ugl has,I believe that scum shrt traders and bot trading could impact on this company and the main reason is that engineering is in for a very rough ride even in 2014.

But take heart and here is hoping I am wrong that UGL for warning of very tough times that the share price will not almost vaporise and that it can sustain this negative sentiment that I post. Everything that I have said about UGL previously I stand by it.

If your a nervous nelly,then I wouldn't know why you are in the share market.Anyway good luck, this is still my petstock,if it was a woman I'd marry her.





SEVEN WAYS TO BEAT SPEEDTRADING

¦ Buy only quality stocks, and for the long-term.

¦ Track your order or you risk buying or selling just a single share or two.

¦ Avoid high-volume mining stocks.

¦ Consider lower-volume smaller stocks.

¦ Buy an index fund instead.

¦ Don't be fooled by big price swings in a day — they mean nothing any more.

¦ Dollar-cost average when buying to avoid price swings.
Volatility all the rage for fashionable managers

RATHER than avoiding the spills and thrills of the sharemarket, there's one way of embracing them.

You can hitch a ride on the market volatility that automated computer-program trading generates.

While you need to avoid specific stocks, lest you find yourself on the wrong end of an algorithm, you can punt on the market bouncing up and down — which isn't exactly a tough call.

Fund manager van Eyk is so taken by the market's volatility that it's made it a separate investment, like gold or shares.

"This new fund treats volatility itself as an asset class," the van Eyk chief executive Mark Thomassays.

It uses options, which are volatile themselves, over the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) volatility index, but you have to invest at least $500,000.

For a more modest $25,000 you'll get into the Blueprint Alternatives Fund.

Unless you treat volatility as an end in itself, it's a "silent killer" of investment returns, he says, because "it reduces the power of compounding. The smoother the return stream from month to month and from year to year, the higher the final return."

The CBOE volatility index is also behind a series of warrants with a built-in stop-loss price sold by brokers RBS Morgan.

A major difference is these use futures contracts. They're also geared, which magnifies the risk, and so are strictly short-term investments.

Bet they'll show those robotic computers a thing or two, though.
