You have made your point Chibu, no need to spread panic and to keep reiterating the same message over. Let people decide on their own; we are all matured minds in here. THANK YOU.
Nice message, bro. For all we care, a couple of things are involved:

1. This dude doesn't see anything wrong in repeating the same message over and over again, which says a lot about his personality, especially SELF-CONTROL.

2. He actually has the liberty to post whatsoever he wishes as NL is accessible to those who abide by the rules guiding comments.

3. Many people of his calibre can afford a smartphone which they use to unleash their acts on the Internet. Please, blame this on Tecno, LG, et al grin

4. There's an entity termed "Obsessive Compulsive Disorder". I would advise the bear himself to Google this and, perhaps, see the experts.

Above all, it is advisable that those who don't subscribe to his style be wary of cyber-bullying. Life comes in different shades, and if myjoy08 enjoys enough patronage on this thread, the pRoPhEt himself is also entitled to some NL space. We can only skip to the next comment!

The only folks I feel for are the newbies - they may be fed with indefensible philosophy. (NB Moneysage isn't a repertoire of sound ideas; "I know nothing"wink

(Sorry NSEMPA for this LONG dialogue)

@pdozie: I'm afraid you're getting this a bit twisted.

Now, permit me to reiterate what oga kotlass earlier explained:

If you want to place a BUY order for ANY stock using the STOP LIMIT, you MUST place your PRICE LIMIT above the STOP price. E.g. X is trading at 2.5 and you want to BUY, your STOP PRICE could be 2.51 or 2.6 and your PRICE LIMIT could be 2.9(i.e you don't wanna buy that stock for more than 2.9)

If you want to place a SELL order for ANY stock using the STOP LIMIT, you MUST place your PRICE LIMIT below the STOP price. E.g. X is trading at 2.5 and you want to SELL, your STOP PRICE could be 2.45 or 2.40 and your PRICE LIMIT could be 2.35(i.e you don't wanna sell that stock for less than 2.35)

If memory serves me right, the position of Meritrade when we discussed this issue last is that: On the Meritrade platform, you would see 3 different types of orders (LIMIT, MARKET, STOP LIMIT). The LIMIT order was advised to be used.

Hence, if you're traveling and won't be able to monitor your portfolio, just set a LIMIT order (for BUY or SELL). E.G the limit prices of stock X above. That means you don't want Meritrade to BUY above that price nor SELL below that price. Shikena

Please, @pdozie, DELETE ABSOLUTELY the second to the last paragraph of your last post. None of kotlass, Moneysage or stockbull implied the lines of your thought.

Regards.
InvestmentRe: Nigerian Stock Exchange Market Pick Alerts by Moneysage: 5:38am On Mar 13, 2015
@kotlass: Thanks for the submission - and it's clarity. With all humility, I had read the investopedia article. Yours sincerely was even one of the folks who discussed this issue on this thread about a year ago and, though Oga Elai 147 and Meristem did a good explanation, it was the investopedia page that settled my quest.

Your answer to @pdozie's challenge (in the later part of your post) and my straight forward answer to him (lines 2 and 3 of my last post) are ONE and the SAME.

@pdozie: The Transcorp trade scenario painted by @kotlass (which I also thought about and have been trading by) is the correct usage of the stop orders. Where your question went awry is that the situation you called BUY should have been a SELL situation, and vice versa.

If the question remains as you put it, it surely won't make much sense to any broker. He will just simply use any LIMIT you put [however low(for your BUY situation) or high(for your sell situation)] or ignore your order and tie wrapper, sit down, wear face cap, and expect you to call... grin
InvestmentRe: Nigerian Stock Exchange Market Pick Alerts by Moneysage:
@pdozie: The answers to your questions are these:

BUY, STOP price = 4
SELL, STOP price = 7

Bro, STOP simply means "trigger", "execute", "ogbeni broker do something". grin

Hence, going by your question your STOP prices are defined by the statements that begin with "Assuming..." Do you get it?

Maybe you should have rather asked about Price limits: LIMIT simply means "ogbeni broker, don't touch my portfolio when the price don reach dis level, biko"

Now, let's slot this tutorial into your question again:
BUY... Current price =5
STOP price =4 (execute, do something)
Price limit = You should fix this price BELOW 4; and this could mean either 3.5 or 2.7 or 0.9 or anything below 4 (i.e you're telling your broker not to buy again when the price falls below this level). Now, why on earth will anyone wanna do this? Tell your broker not to buy below 2.7 when the stock can be bought for 1.5??

This, perhaps explains why the STOP limit is rarely used (as @stockbull mentioned), EXCEPT if you want to fix the STOP price and the PRICE limit at the same level (as I answered earlier on). And that would mean: "Broker, please BUY this stock when it fall to 4(stop) , but don't buy below 4(limit) ". Still sounds VERY weird! This explains why the LIMIT PRICE ONLY is usually used and would be chosen by the broker if a confusing order is placed.

NB: I'm not sure one can place a LIMIT price ABOVE a STOP price. What a clumsy BUY order that would be!

#I wish I can do the SELL scenario, but it's late this night.
#I also hope this helps
#I stand to be corrected

I love the observations about the two pRoPhEts. However, it's the metamorphosis of the Ikoyi pRoPhEt that amazes me: He stormed this thread 7-8 months ago with prophecies, prayers and persuasive posts. He even doles out weekend prayers and blesses those who pour acids on him.

But now grin grin .... How much of a MONKEY HUNTER he has become! Words of motivation seem to have left his lexicon, save "we are making money this year". He no longer compels newbies to BUY, he just tells them to do their homework... And calls on oga Agba to pump up stocks, at will.

@immanuello: I wish I was privy to NEM's impending corporate plans. That said, the coy doesn't fit my investment philosophy, though it may do well for short-termers.

In the short term, with or without reference to the stock's valuation metrics, an upside of 20% is attainable. But a pull back to 0.60 may precede the bull run, especially in view of looming economic events. And this correlates, however imperfectly, with the current accumulation the stock is experiencing and with Myjoy08's response.

@Oga Aks: Thanks for the kind advice to the pRoPhEt.

ChibuEZE, nwokem di ike...okereke... And I warned you severally o! See as people dey feed on your flesh! When someone thinks he has enough experience in the NSE (I refuse to call it roadside experience), thinks he is old enough... Has OND, BSc, MSc, works for LGA/FGN, blah blah and wants to make everyone hear his prophecies ad nauseatum... The fellow will have himself to blame.

The last fellow who tried this with Oando (brandishing 20 yrs love affair with Oando) is cooling off elsewhere... NSEMPA don't tolerate bullies, especially BEAR bullies.

Even, oga mi Myjoy08 has had some acid bath before. grin grin grin

One semi-last card for you: Please, walk into the nearest bookshop to you and buy a copy of "How to Win Friends and Influence People" by Dale Carnegie.

When you execute the book, kindly return here to give Moneysage a high-five. I fit chop knuckle, too. cheesy

@Kagame: Thumbs-up to you for the rational presentation of your sentiment analysis. I am also deeply moved by your later acceptance of how "anything can happen". Indeed, the range of uncertainty is uncertain.

IMO, and going by the uncertainty riddled in your post, the answer to their puzzle lies in the bank you adored and then quickly condemned. Another puzzle? grin

By and large, I believe many members of this forum will be better for it if we had more posts like yours... Not persistent shaky prophecies that would be forced down the throat of unsuspecting and superficial investors.

@London Cool: You are making money this year!!! If you don't, please let me know; WE shall do something about it. grin grin

It is plausible that the financial services sector will feel the effects of a weakened currency, but no less than they were expected regarding the CBN's CRR.

I have been though some pages already! I am starting out with the stock market this week, with Morgan capital but I am not sure how to go about it and also how do I know the right stocks to pick and all! Please @house kindly enlighten me ?
Hello Sir. I have seen your NL profile and if I link it to this post of yours (provided this post isn't a joke), this would be my advise to you:

1. Kindly stay out of the stock market THIS WEEK, THIS MONTH, NEXT MONTH... The stock market doesn't hurt those who aren't in it, neither is it the only source of income.

2. While you're abstaining from the stock market, do a Google search for books that will teach you about the market. You may also search a local store around you for any of those. Easier still check out www.investopedia.com

3. Start following this thread daily or start reading from any convenient page.

4. Return in 2-3 months time to thank all of us on here.

Regards,
Moneysage.

@zogieosagie
I have checked the "NSE Ticker" App on iTunes and it seems that the App was developed or financed by yourself ( since it has your name there).

It is a bit insincere and disingenuous of you to suggest that the App belongs to the NSE. You could have honestly stated that you had a financial interest in the App and ask people here to review it (assuming they wanted to commit themselves financially to purchase the App). Don't hide your innovation, let's celebrate your App...but it seems you got someone to develop the App for you which is also worth celebrating as an Entreprenuer.

@Oga mi kotlass: I 'see' that you're a pacifist and a prophet. grin Your 'seeing' of NSEMPA crushes as personality reflection is in order, but as a reflection of 'state of affairs' is taking prophecy to a higher dimension. grin

People can convert their gall to useful means, such as prayer for the nation. Yet, it shouldn't stop them from stopping the track of some folk who wants to score cheap points. We need not answer a fool according to his folly (as Proverbs 26:4 enjoins us), but we can address some of their crushes so that they when next they return to NSEMPA, they are more humble and watch before they post.

Nwannem, see as your yeye full everywhere!

1.) You've merely lent credence to my cynicism regarding long posts and the monikers that author them. If you subscribe to the Holy Bible, kindly read Ecclesiastes 6:11...and ponder on those words.

2.) Having read your forecasts repeatedly (and alluded to them), I decided to engage your logical aptitude. Perhaps I forgot that pRoPhEcIeS have little or no logical relevance, but I can bet that anyone who has a SOUND mind and has followed the conversation between you and I in relation to your daily/periodic rants will agree with the maxim: Empty barrels make the loudest noise.

Chibuking81, I wish you well in your extensive independent market research. Happy investing in Feb/March...or whenever!
