RE:I am shocked Hi Sam. I like to think this is an educational forum, so indulge me. Putting all of your eggs in one basket will result in getting rich or going broke, more likely the latter. Try to build a portfolio:
75% in good companies that you want to own for the long term. I own things like NTR, BNS, KEY, MFC, WELL, BCE, QSR, LSPD, MTY and many others that fit that bill
15% in small cap growth like GSI, ZENA, FLT, TAAT, MILE(there are hundreds of these do your own DD)
10% day trade money(take a course in technical analysis and be patient for the right opportunities-they come everyday if you know where to look)
Start each day the night before with premarket data to get an idea of the general trend. First thing I look at is dollar gainers and look for chart patterns for an entry point. The market tells you what to do, don't waste your time predicting...no one can. Best of luck!
