    cana nyone help, whats the best way to sell a large holding

    I currently hold 10,000 shares and normal market size is around 5000 shares im just a little worried they might rob me on the price if i try and sell all in one big go

    or is it better to do 2 x 5000
    thanks

    also lastly is anyone in nautical petroleum or encore oil
  • I watch encore and I hold them via a Junior oils fund. Nasty reset but probably fine to continue up when its levelled out so long as oil price stays high


    Sounds like you own alot of a penny stock, cant you tell the price before agreeing to sell. Set a limit order or something


    google says, iii on npe http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OkViaNNb2aU



    Looks like they all related to disappointment on catcher oilfield, C'est la vie

    Just sold another approx. 20% of equities into cash this week, so now holding a mix of around 50/50, as expecting another general market correction (7-10%?) in the next few weeks.

    We should expect a 7-10% gain then. :D

    This thread has a title that makes it seem dated.
    Could one of the regulars not start a '2012 and beyond', it does cover a lot of worthwhile territory.
    Just asking as a regular lurker.

    LSE appears likely to merge with TMX is news emerging tonight, thats Canada. Quite like that idea as Im keen on a few Canadian prospects, maybe it will be easier/cheaper for us to take an interest in such a vast unoccupied and unexploited area

    Anybody know if that would include the TX Venture exchange and stocks?
