@Nick Radge, I value open and honest communication, so if there’s been a misunderstanding, let’s clear it up now by denying your involvement with these three Twitter members (@TheGreatPieEat1, @ppeakey007, and @Ppeaky01).
trolls will will be trolls@Dona Ferentes, it seems that @Nick Radge has not yet responded to my earlier question. I can understand his frustration, as misunderstandings can often be resolved with a simple clarification.
In my previous post
I used a humorous graphic to respond to a complaint about an imposter.
This has led me to ponder
"What motivates an individual to behave in a certain way?"

it does seem to detract from the main game, Skate . Not a fan of Clutter
Its almost like seeing a STRANGE object in the SKY that causes confusionNot a fan of Clutter
@Dona Ferentes, I appreciate your point of view.
But, "What one person perceives as clutter might be considered valuable content by another". It’s all a matter of perspective.

Professor the hard part about all of this is picking when the see-saw is on the ground (buy)and not elevated, (sell).(RIO) A Nice tradeable investment style candidate
The oscillations of the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) provide substantial opportunities to extract some profits from this style of trading. However, the task of filtering out short-term trades proves to be a formidable challenge. By eliminating these fleeting trades, we risk missing out on authentic long-term movements.”

Hmmmmm Perhaps low self esteem, or the IQ of a door knob, or just plain stupid.@Dona Ferentes, it seems that @Nick Radge has not yet responded to my earlier question. I can understand his frustration, as misunderstandings can often be resolved with a simple clarification.

Navigating an Investment Journey from a Trader’s Perspective
I’ve come to appreciate the distinct advantages that systematic trading offers. It provides the freedom to make decisions based on the mathematical analysis of market sentiment. This approach is quite different from traditional investing. Now that I have built a portfolio with high-dividend-yielding companies, it requires me to have faith in their ability to continue delivering. These companies are well aware of their responsibility to their dividend-seeking investors which is an upside.
However, I’m not entirely comfortable at this stage with the passive approach of letting my investments run their course. This investment strategy requires an understanding that the returns, while slightly better than a term deposit, also come with the risk of capital gains and losses. This adds another layer of complexity to the investment process.

yes i noticed 'set and forget ' wasn't ideal for me when starting my investment adventure back in 2011 , sure the platforms loved me for my frequent buying , but what do you do when a solid stock keeps sliding and sliding week after week , month after monthShifting Gears: A New Approach to Investing
@Rabbithop, I’m currently recalibrating my thoughts on investing, shifting from a passive approach to a more active one. My new focus is on trading investment-grade companies listed on the ASX200. This approach allows me to make informed decisions and adjust an investment strategy based on market conditions, fostering a more engaged approach.
I’ve come to realise that investing isn’t just about sitting back and watching the numbers. It’s about understanding the market, making informed decisions, and actively managing the portfolio. It’s about striking the right balance by allowing a modified MACD to adapt to ever-changing market conditions and action those generated signals.
In my previous posts, I’ve acknowledged the ‘false signal’ issue using the MACD in its standard form. To address this, I'm testing the effectiveness of using the absolute difference between the MACD Line and the Signal Line, instead of the signal line as the condition to generate the buy and sell signals. This is part of my ongoing effort to refine my strategy and improve the accuracy of my buy/sell signals.

what do you do when a solid stock keeps sliding and sliding week after week , month after month, do you buy a box of tissues or use it as an opportunity to add more to selected holdings - the really tough part is making good decisions on what to bulk up on ( when nearly everything is 'on sale ' )
Is it worth putting in the old stop loss before you reach a 20% loss to preserve your capital?
The problem with buy and hold in the current market is that you're basically buying at the very top of the market. Recent Indexes have broken into their all time highs, but I personally think you always have to monitor what a company is doing and what's happening in their main line of business, it doesn't take much for a company to drop most of its value with in a week from negative market news, topped with shorters attacking at every angle on a slight whim of negative news.
i don't use stop losses , but at around a 20% drop ( on my average share price ) i do look intensely deciding if/when i should add moreIs it worth putting in the old stop loss before you reach a 20% loss to preserve your capital?
