gurp ... forgot to say, thanks for that post. Some good tips that i will bare in mind. My biggest problem this year was getting too attached to a company and believing in it too much. My gut was saying "No" and i kept topping up putting nearly all my eggs in one basket and wow did i pay for it.
This year will be different ... i have set out 4 - 5 companies that i am interested in and will spread it amongst those 5 and see what happens. I tried short term trading and i am crap at it !!!
In 2006 i learned that i should only invest in a resoruce company if they are producing OR the management of the company has a proven track record. If i had followed those rules in 2006 i wouldn't have touched FAO with a bargepole.
