Trading & Investing idea
I happen to see these comments appearing on one of the forum and I think is a good way to share!
Quote:
The ability to LOON until the stock makes its U-Turn and come back up to erase all your paper loss is closely intertwined with
the size of your reserve army. The bigger your reserve army, the stronger your ability to LOON. And the size of your reserve
army is in turn tied to whether you did overtrade.
When you trade with a cash account, once you have used up all your capital, you stop buying. You pay for your shares and sit
out the rest of the downturn and patiently wait for the stock to find its bottom, U-Turn, and come back up to your entry price.
That' s if you stop buying. But if you didnt stop buying...you continued to do contra trades after you ran out of capital, that' s
overtrading. If the stock does not find its bottom and U-Turn within the contra period, you will have to cut and take the loss.
When you trade with a CFD account, observe your one-third rule. Use the 1st one-third of your capital to open positions. Open
wisely based on best prices under best conditions, not carelessly buy thinking that you still have two-thirds of your army. Treat
your troops with respect. Treat them like they are your brothers. You wont risk your brothers' lives and send them on a suicide
mission, will you? Ofcoz not. So when you start buying with your 1st one-third of your army, buy under best prices and best
conditions using your indicators and doing the best you can. If wrong and your 1st one-third is stuck, you can do nothing and
watch first. Wait for the selling to stop. Then use your 2nd one-third of your troops to nibble slowly to average down (or average
up if you are SHORTing). Bear in mind that your 2nd one-third of your troops has another function --- to pay com and daily interest
plus to buffer paper loss for your stuck positions.
You should never touch your last one-third to average down (or up) when the market is still falling. You need that last one-third to
give you that security blanket and confidence to weather out any further downside. It is this last one-third of your reserve army which
enables you to sleep well each night and get on with your life. When the U-Turn comes, you can either do nothing and let the rising
tide erase your paper loss first. When enough troops are converted from paper loss to Avaliable To Deal, you can use those converted
troops to add more positions. Or if you are aggressive, you can use some of your last one-third of reserve troops to add more positions
to ride on the recovery. How much of the last one-third reserve troops you can use --- there is no hard and fast rule. The more aggressive
and more risk-seeking you are, the more you can use. The more conservative and more risk-averse you are, the lesser you can use. Or
even not use at all. It all depends on your trading experience, your trading philosophy, your appetite for risk and your hunger for adventure.
With that, I leave you with these quotations....
" A pessimist sees risks in times of certainty.
An optimist sees opportunities in times of uncertainty."
" Be fearful when others are greedy.
Be greedy when others are fearful."
" The best time to buy stocks is when there is blood-letting on the streets, even if it is your own blood."
" When the enemy presents you with an opening, move in and penetrate immediately."
Below is my comments: It only apply to Blue chips and the company fundamental is still ok. Cannot use it to apply any other counters and esp penny and ultra penny counter . Sometimes we didn't see them recover. So pls trade within your own financial means ! Do not borrow or on high margin to play stock .I think You may get into serious trouble .. trade with extra cautious!

1st Quarter 2019 result - The Group posted a revenue of approximately $27.2 million for this period as compared to $17.7 million in the previous corresponding period. The increase was mainly due to the recognition of revenue from the sales of its development properties in Singapore and higher rental income from its investment properties including YOTEL Singapore Orchard Road (“YOTEL”).
Hence, the Group posted a profit of approximately $5.1 million as compared to $0.6 million in the previous corresponding period. The Group’s profit attributable to Owners of the Company was approximately $5.5 million as compared to $1.5 million in the previous corresponding period.
The right-of-use asset was mainly related to lease of the office units occupied by the Group in Hong Kong. The increase in other investments was mainly due to purchase of shares and bonds and valuation of its other investments at fair value as at 31 March 2019. The non-current asset held for sale in 2018 was disposed off in February 2019. The lease liabilities as at 31 March 2019 were due to the adoption of SFRS(I) 16 with effect from 1 January 2019.
The Group increased its non-current loans and borrowings due to drawdown of its secured loans to redeem its $120 million 4.75% unsecured fixed rate notes on its due date, 22 March 2019 and for its purchase of other investments.
Subsequently, on 28 March 2019, the Company issued $100 million 4.2% unsecured fixed rate notes from its $600 million Multicurrency Debt Issuance Programme to partially repay these secured loans. The decrease in loans and borrowings under current liabilities was mainly due to the redemption of its $120 million unsecured fixed rate notes on its due date. The decrease in trade and other payables was mainly due to the payments of accrued development costs, employee benefit expenses and finance expense. The increase in current tax liabilities was mainly due to provision of tax for this period.
The total debts to equity ratios is pretty healthy at 0.25 .
The current price of 84 cents is trading at P/B of 0.304x.
NAV is 2.76.
Management has been buying back share from 79,79.5 to 82.5 cents .

QAF
Yesterday the selling down with a wide Bearish bar coupled with high volume + price was down 4.5 cents to close at 70 cents looks super bearish!
The chart is damaged and price may likely continue to go further down.
Short term wise, I think it may go down to retest 68 level.
Breaking down of 68 cents with high volume that may see further selling down pressure and press the share price further down towards 60 cents level.
Current PE I think is very high at around 50x.
NAV 89 cents.
I am doubtful they can maintain the dividend of 5 cents looking at their FCF being generated.
Just had a looked on their FY 2018 cash flow statements.
FCF is negative for FY2017 & FY2018.
seem a red flag to me!
FCF for FY2017 , Net Cash from Ops is $61916 less Capex $60660, FCF = $1256. Dividend payout of $19206 How to support this kind of dividend payout..
FCF for FY2018 is worst . Net Cah from Ops $20932 less Capex $74384 , FCF -$53452.
Dividend payout of $23441. Looks scarely..
Had also looked into their recent 1st Quarter 2019 financial result.
FCF looks slightly improve but is still far from enough to cover the dividend payout of $23441.
I think dividend is not sustainable.
Not a call to buy or sell.

Bank counter UOB,dbs & ocbc
I think is always good to secure the profit!
Market has been rising due to news like trade saga and future interest rate cut .
US indexes has been approaching the dangerous zone. I think is good to be extra cautious!
We have a 10 good years of bull market and is about time for the indexes to be corrected .
The 3 bank counters has managed to rebound from the oversold territory and I think is always a good to lock in profit.
I think not much room to go higher unless trigger by some positive news.
UOb latest chart
DBs latest chart
Ocbc latest chart
Chart wise, the three bank counter are showing a reversal patterns as all 3 counters are having quite similar chart patterns.
UOb chart patterns standout amongst the other two counters and close slightly near the overhead resistance at 26.15.
TA wise,looks Bullish !
It is usually quite normal for price not to be able to Pierce through the resistance . With this bullish momentum, I think it may continue to rise further!
Dbs has a very nice Gap up yesterday and close slightly higher at 25.43. It has managed to take out the recent high of 25.40 , looks positive!
Short term wise, I think it may rise higher to test 26.00 then 26.50 - 26.95.
Ocbc also experience a nice Gap up yesterday and close well at 11.18, looks positive!
If it is able to cross over 11.20 smoothly plus good volume then high chance it may rise higher to retest 11.50 again!

Daily Leverage Certificates ( DLCs)
Daily Leverage Certificates ( DLCs)
What is Daily Leverage Certificates
(DLCs)?
It is actually a financial instruments that is designed to
multiply the Daily Performance of an Underlying Assets with a leveraging effect
of example 3x , 5x or 7x DLC .
If the underlying
asset moves by 1% from its closing price of the previous trading day, the value
of a 3x DLC will move by 3%, and that of a 7x DLC will move by 7%.
Example : If the
underlying asset moves goes up by 1% and you have chosen 3x Long DLC would have
gone up by 3%. Let say you have bought using 3x Long DLC with $3000 today and
the underlying asset price is 100. Tomorrow the price goes up to 101( up by 1%)
, your 3x Long DLC value would be increasing to $3090( up by 3%) before the
broker commission/other fees etc .
Theoretically you
would have generated a gain of $90 excludes costs and fees.
On the other hands,
if the underlying assets price drops by 1%, your 3x Long DLC investment value
would also drop to $2910( down by 3%) before costs and fees. You have generated
a loss of $90.
DLC comes in Long and Short versions. While Long DLC provides
leveraged return versus the Underlying Asset, Short DLC provides a positive
(and leveraged) return when the Underlying Asset declines.
All the current single stock DLCs have a leverage of 5,
while index DLCs come in 3 choices of 3, 5, and 7 times leverage.
Is DLCs suitable for me?
DLCs are designed for active
investors or traders who have financial knowledge and experience in trading
leverage products and willing to take a higher risk. It is designed for
sophisticated investors who are looking for the potential to make enhanced
returns from the daily benchmark indices or stock counters.
To be eligible or qualified as a DLCs investors or traders, he
or she will need to be SIP qualified before they can start to trade on DLCs
product.
Under MAS’ guidelines to enhance safeguards to
retail investors, brokers must assess if investors have the relevant knowledge
and experience before they can invest in “Specified Investment Products”. SIPs
are products that have structures, features and risks that may be more complex
and include DLCs.
Investors or traders need to complete a
customer account review with their respective broker. The criteria used to
qualify the investor in the customer account review consist of Educational
Qualifications, Work Experience and Investment Experience. Investors will need
to satisfy one of the 3 criteria above to qualify.
DLCs is a simple financial instrument designed for
short-term traders . The holding period of an average trade generally can range
from a day to a couple of weeks. If you only want to invest in the most stable
stocks and get the regular dividend yield, then DLCs is not really suitable for
you. But if you have a short-term view on a stock/index and would like to get a
convenient leverage to enlarge the potential return, then you may consider trading
a DLCs.
What should I know before I start trading
DLCs
DLCs are listed on SGX like a stock, and they are also
traded like a stock. If you have a stock broker account that can trade say any
single stock share, you can use the same broker account to trade DLCs too.
Unlike some other leveraged investment products, there is no margin requirement
for DLCs.
The list of DLCs counters are listed on this website.
Below is a snap-shot of the list of DLCs counters and their bid
and asking price.
Costs & Fees
Investors trading in and out of a DLCs in the
same trading day will need to pay a brokerage commission and SGX trading fee to

UOb,Dbs and Ocbc
Chart wise, the three bank counter are showing a reversal patterns as all 3 counters are having quite similar chart patterns.
UOb chart patterns standout amongst the other two counters and close slightly near the overhead resistance at 26.15.
TA wise,looks Bullish !
It is usually quite normal for price not to be able to Pierce through the resistance . With this bullish momentum, I think it may continue to rise further!
Dbs has a very nice Gap up yesterday and close slightly higher at 25.43. It has managed to take out the recent high of 25.40 , looks positive!
Short term wise, I think it may rise higher to test 26.00 then 26.50 - 26.95.
Ocbc also experience a nice Gap up yesterday and close well at 11.18, looks positive!
If it is able to cross over 11.20 smoothly plus good volume then high chance it may rise higher to retest 11.50 again!
Not a call to buy or sell.
Pls dyodd.

Koufu
TA wise, looks bearish!
After hitting the high of 82.5 cents, it has since retreated sharply and slide further down to touch 67 cents, looks rather negative.
The current price of 68 cents is hovering near the support level of 67 cents.
Breaking down of this support level at 67 cents, may likely go further down to retest 63 cents.
NAV 16.93 cents.
EPS of 5 cents ( 1.25 x 4)
PE is about 13.65 x base on current price of 68 cents.
dividend of 2.2 cents, yield of 3.23% looks quite decent.
First quarter 2019 results seem not bad.
Achieving a Net Profit of 6.958m an increased of 12.7% versus 6.173m last year.
The vast improvement in their Ops cash flow of 25.7m versus 10.7m last year looks pretty impressive!
Cash-on-hands of 66.5m with less than 5m loan , Net cash per share is about 11.07 cents.
dividend payment of 2.2 cents is about 12m per year.
With their robust Ops cash flow/FCF, I think they can afford to increase their dividend payout of let say increment of 0.5 cents every year for next 5 years to bring the yearly dividend to 4.5 cents .
I think the company robust FCF should be able to support the dividend payout of 4.5 cents a year which is about 24.98m.
Not a call to buy or sell.

How much share to Buy?
Position Sizing - it plays an important role of protecting the trader for being over exposed to a particular trade by minimizing the risk .
The percentage (%) of risk can be measure in terms of 1-5 or 6-10 % that you can afford to loss for each trade.
How to work out the maximum quantity for each trade that depends of each an individual risk tolerance level.
For example, person A can only tolerate a loss of 3% for each trade.
Let's say he has $10000 as capital. 3% risk appetite.
The formula is roughly as follow:-
10000 x 3% ( risk per trade - 1-10%)
--------------------------------------------
Entry Price less Cut Loss price
= 300
--------------------------
$1.00(EP) - $0.95(SL)
300
= ------- = 6000 share.
0.05
Person A capital for his /her trade is 6000 x $1.00 = $6000
For example , person B risk appetite is 5%.
let's say he or she has $12000 as capital , 5% risk exposure.
The formula is roughly as follows:-
12000 x 5% (% risk per trade)
-------------------------------------
$1.10(EP) less $1.01(SL)
600
= ---------
0.09
= 6600 share.
Person B, he/she capital for this trade would be 6600 x $1.10 = $7260
The above example is meant for educational illustration and is not an advice or recommendation for any particular stock trading.
