RE:preparing myself to pick up some shares I agree. Always have to be ready for any deals that might appear, because a lot of loser stocks overreact on the selling side.
With BCE I'll start buying at $35.79 and take a full position at $33.33 if it gets there.
If tax loss season drops BCE Shares to those levels I'll buy, but only during December.
If it doesn't happen next month, I won't touch BCE next year if it drops to the low 30's..
