CanOz said:Heres another chart showing Zinifex. I must thank Nick Radge for enlightening me to the idea of Volume Spread analysis, and his FREE e-book you get when you join. But again its the sellers that won day here, same as CBH. I could go on, they're are allot of stocks that did the same on the day but i'll get too far off topic....do we have a thread on the art of the exit?
Anyway Free keep your opinions coming, i like your viewpoint.

Canaussieuck - thanks for the kind words the other day. You are giving me FAR too much credit. I sold simply because i thought the US markets would collapse after the midterm elections and cause a correction here as well. And also because the run was starting to get too vertical to be sustained. Like i said, after May, the more paper profits im sitting on, the more uncomfortable i come and the more vulnerable i feel.
I actually REALLY wanted to sell on monday but was hesitant. So when tuesday (the day before elections) was a US rally and zinc spot up, i had no hesitation to pull the trigger. I missed the open which was 85c and then the price dropped cent by cent and by noon was 81c. Closed flat for the day.
As you say freeball and i agree, the fundamentals for zinc or CBH havent changed. But every bullrun has corrections.
Thanks for the charts CanOz.

if you held this approach on zfx over the last two years you would have missed on a lot of profits. i initially bought into these and have been following them since ascending triangle break of 2.21 two years ago, am quite experienced in tech / a, and am continually amazed at zfx'x ability to ignore all sell indicators and continue charging ahead. there are a few more that come to mind (pdn. kzl etc).
post us your next exit point before there has been two weeks in your favour. anyone can explain on an old chart.
in many other stocks (and market times for that matter) i would back you up and agree, however the fundementals and support patterns of these stocks the past year and a half has been an eye opener. The week i used to wait for my trend confirmations used to cost me 10% every time in these stocks.
your exit strategy shall last a lifetime however, whereas benefits of bottom pickin these market winners shall come to an end one day. when that day comes i shall go back to buy and exit strategies and breakouts similar to the ones you use.
we all know zinc is goin up, and uranium for that matter. why not buy after the stock has been nailed by profit takers ??
does anyone have any backtesting software?? an interesting event would be to compare trading between buying on corrections / profit taking vs bying breaks for zfx, pdn, and kzl the past year and a half. bet i know which would perform the best
i still trade breaks for speckies!!! i am only refering to the big market winners over the past two years with unbelievable fundemental backing.

rwkni1 said:Zinc price was actually off 3c/lb (1.7%) last night to US$2.05/lb. Stocks also gained 800t to 87kt - the second consecutive day of inventory gains. Nothing to worry about IMO, maybe we're just starting to see some price elasticity of demand at these levels. Either way, buyers can't hold out forever.
