BRM - Brockman Resources





A recent trade, which I am still holding, is Brockman Resources. Explaining my reasons
1. Mid term the stock as come of a strong base, between October and start of January
2. A strong short term break out occurred on strong volume to a high of $1.17 (16th Jan)
3. Close on 15th and 16th both closed below 50MA
4. Stock pulled back on low volume back to the 38.2% Fib, and into the TAZ
5. GMMA show a the short term averages breaking above the long term.

I bought on the high of the 29th Jan, @ $0.90 with a stop at $0.84.
My target is the 50MA, and I have moved my stop to above break event at $0.95, below the low of the 3rd of February.

Not sure how I'll play this Monday. A lot of volume yesterday all at $1.00. If signs of this stronger buyer/seller at this level leaving I may decide to exit, to try and lock in a good profit. I'll will be watching this one intrad day early next week for an exit sign. I may end up missing an up-trend that is starting, but a profit is a profit in a any, especially a bear, market.

Rate Cut Expected

Looking forward to the rate cut later this today . Tips have ranged from 1% up to a high of 1.5%. Michael Pasco discussed the possibility of 1.5% today with Mel and Koshie on Sunrise.

Trading has been slow of late with my work, website freelancing and family commitments ramping up. BRM and TAP are to recent pullbacks that I'm on and both have been a little slow. BRM had a good day yesterday so hoping it will follow through.

Enjoy the rest of the week and lets hope for a substantial rate cut today.
