Hmm to be honest and i'm a little embarrassed to admit, I've had equity story tips making up about 70% of my trades of late, which is why i haven't really been tipping much lately as i don't feel comfortable using other peoples tips. The other 30% are from ideas and leads that I've found on here. My success rate has substantially improved since i stopped trying to do the research on my own, as this was one of the weaknesses i identified earlier last year. One of the biggest necessities with my current system is a good BS radar. Mines getting better. Theres no way i could do a scan and start from scratch or i'd lose all my dough in 3 months. I do have alot of open positions and from alot of the literature i've read and alot of the posters on here say that this is a bad idea, but at the moment it is working so i'm not going to try and tweak it just yet. As far as i can tell it limits upside but it also limits downside. All nice ingredients to help me get a good nights sleep.
As for my favourite posters on hotcopper:
@paddington bear morning notes are pretty much my favourite, i used to follow
@Green Bull around
@Freehold,
@gamefisherman @Waiting4Godot to name a few others but mostly these days i'll just make sure i read the whole STT and XSO thread and apply the radar.
this song was in the charts when i was buying my first house and always reminds me of how lucky my timing was entering the property market and never ceases to give me chills.
