When I am feeling stressed or overwhelmed watching Ted Talks calms me down. Today I decided to watch ” 10 Ways To Have A Better Conversation – A Ted Talk By Celeste Headlee” You can find the link to the talk here . What did I take away from it ? Assume you have something to learn and truly listen . Use Open Ended Questions. Who, When Why , What, Where and How If you don’t know – be honest about…
Overseas markets are trending green today . I am holding on to some social media stocks and commodity stocks . I don’t see anything planned happening in these two areas this week . I have to think about what I want to do with these positions. At the moment I will be monitoring the market and not making any active trades . Sometimes it becomes a waiting game and patience is important!
My aunt has a cottage in Hasting Ontario . An hour and half from Markham/Scarborough. It is really a house that backs on to a lake in a small town . We usually spend labour day here every summer . A great option if you are looking to get out of Toronto for the weekend. The lake had amazing Lily pads . Some photos from my cottage weekend:
I will most likely only have time for two sit down meals in Panama. After some research I have chosen these four in order of preference . Hopefully I get to experience at least some of it . 1. Maito ( Panama City ) – This is highlighted as the top restaurant in Panama. Definitely wouldn’t mind trying it . Reviews indicate a tasting menu is around $75 which seems to be reasonable for top restaurant in the country ….
Might be on my way to Panama soon . Decided to spend this Friday evening holed up at chapters planning what can be done in Panama. Panama City 1. Visit Mercado de Mariscos – Famous market 2. A day or half day trip to Baru Volcano ( Chiriqui Highlands ) – Volcan Baru National Park . Rainforest with bamboo gardens , orchids and bromeliads . Coffee plantations . 3. Visit the Canal and take the rail line that runs parallel…
The overseas market is positive. I am waiting this week to see the direction of SNAP shares and KAT.TO . Both of these shares are short term trades that I need to get rid of soon . I ll be monitoring both today and this week to see if I get an opportunity to sell . If I don’t by the end of this week I need to make a call and sell at a loss . I found an…
Based on my premarket readings it looks like we may be not having much movement in the market or trending lower . Overseas some indexes are positive for the trading day . We are blessed with Trump news . My SNAP shares has trended lower the last two trading days . It is trading higher in pre- market trading . I don’t see any fundamental reasons for trending downward so I am at minimum going to hold it for the…
The market futures appear to be green today . I have a short term SNAP position I am hoping to cash out today . There are some good signs I may be able to close this position with a profit today . Good signs : 1. SNAP is up slightly in pre market trading 2. Market futures are trending green . Bad signs : 1 . Chinese social media company is in a downward spiral as much it may have…
Yesterday it was a bloody red day in the markets ! I used this opportunity to pick up SNAP – my favourite day trading stock at the moment. I have had two good day trades with SNAP . Trying for a third . Based on my “What you need to know before the opening bell ” update the markets overseas for the non pacific area was green ! That is good news for my SNAP trade . If no SNAP…
I watch the “What you need to know before opening bell segments ” on BNN every morning to get an update on what happened to oversea markets every morning. It looks like the overseas market took a beating today . There is good and bad in this . The good – I have some cash and it will let me pick up some short term trades . The bad – my existing positions will get hammered . I am okay…
