RE:I wish I could help you guys the way you all helped me!!Brilliant? Please don't think that. If someone suggests they are smart on here, they probably are in the basement with mom's laptop doing make believe trades. :)
Some on here have 30-40 yrs experience and still get caught up in emotions. Going against the herd and going with the trends is tough while controlling fear and greed. Lot of work but I love it! Especially when I can get a piece of the action those Wall Street and Bay Street "pro's" leave on the table for me. I respect em but I don't trust em. LOL (especially when they tell their clients to sell well before they should.
Aug usually is a drop so those that sold in May can re-enter. That may still happen(a hedge may be wise) but good to prepare in case they hold it high into the U.S. election as they did in 1996 and 2000. I always think "what if" and hedge my bets in that direction. Also if Trump wins. I have a couple cement plays I am keeping my eye on and if not may buy some "weed" stocks. Ha ha
