Congratulations on your holdings and welcome to the fun (and at times, stressful) world of equities investing.

With respect to how many shares should you have, that will depend on a number of factors such as;

- Your risk tolerance i.e. What is going to keep you up at night?
- Your available capital to invest and of that what are you willing to lose if you make a bad trade or your position moves against you?
- Is your capital that you have allocated to equities capable of sitting in them long term or do you require short term access to cash i.e. How liquid do you need your cash to be?
- Your strategy: will you sit and hold, will you trade regularly? Is this all of your portfolio or some of it?

There are more things to consider but I don't want to bombard you with them just now.

Most important point though is to keep a level head, be objective and do your own research to derive your own opinions. Very easy to get caught in the thrill and rush of it and lose.

Both of these stocks are still, in my opinion, high to very high risk speculative stocks, and likely will be for a little while to come still.

FWIW I am fairly heavily invested in both (which in itself is impossible to determine what that means as heavily invested to one will be a drop in the ocean for another) and I have a risk tolerance similar to a crash test dummy.

All my opinion and best of luck in your endeavours.
