CXBMF Calibre Mining
One more thing. I don't think it is headed too much lower. I think it is more likely to go up.
The reason I think this is that there have been a couple of down days where it has dropped from its new 52 week high of $1.70 to today of $1.51. The thing is that the average daily volume of this stock is now over 500,000 shares and today it was only 171,000. If the stock was going to go lower and people were wanting to get rid of it, the volume would have been higher and people would be selling. This tells me that nobody wants to sell at $1.52.
Then we have to remember that CXBMF is buying their own stock back. They are purchasing 30 million shares this calendar year. Obviously they did not buy today. If I were in the acquisition department, I would be purchasing the stock tomorrow while it is low thus raising the market price again because of the volume being purchased.
Basically it was a dead slow day for the stock. Maybe the slowest volume day in months.

So I figure the new high is $1.82, I think it will meet some resistance along the way. I think that resistance will be at the recent high of $1.70.
I decided that if I can sell today or very soon what I bought yesterday for $1.68, I will be able to buy it back again at around $1.60. So I put in an order to sell those 11,085 shares. Maybe that will happen this morning. If it does, I could but it back again tomorrow or as soon as the funds settled. I think I saw a headline or statement that new rule will allow settlement in one day instead of 3.
Heck if it sells for $1.68 in short order, that would be 10.5% gain from the $1.52 I paid yesterday.
I think this stock is too good to hold and forget about. It is the stock that just keeps on winning.
I think I might nickname it Charlie Sheen!

How much lower than $1.40 will it go?

It almost went to $1.25. I am glad to see it is on the move up again. That would have been a great buying opportunity!Hootyburra wrote: ↑Tue. Jun. 04, 2024 9:03 pm How much lower than $1.40 will it go?

I still own it and am still expecting great things. It is now on the Canadian S&P
Decided to change my purchase price to $1.49. So I am hoping for a dip and hope it will get down to where I can purchase at that price. Last time the dip went to $1.3 or thereabouts. My guess is it will still go to over $2 by the end of the year but I cannot see people not cashing out on big short term gains that will drop the stock. Heck if you bought a month ago at $1.30 and it went to $1.60, that is a huge gain in a short time. Some people are going to sell and drive the price down.
If that doesn't' happen, well I still own 5,000 shares and made huge profit on what I have already sold.
Yesterday I sold 11,085 shares, if I am able to purchase back at $1.49 I will have 11,890 a gain of 805 shares at $1.49 would be profit of $1199.45.
Either way I am a winner.
Yesterday I sold 11,085 at $1.6 = $17736 -$16= $17720 and I still own 5,000 at market price of $1.60 =$8,000. So 8k + 17,720=$28,365.
December 27, 2023 at this threads inception I had 15,713 shares at market price of $1.06 =$16,656.
$28,365 - $16,656 = $11,709 profit in less than 7 months on a $16,656 investment. That equates to over a 70% return.
This was not hindsight, Monday morning quarterbacking, or some type of illegal insider trading. It was simply a rare opportunity that I noted and have been documenting. I have and always do put my money where my mouth is.
December 27, 2023 July 16, 2024 One would have to follow the thread and see that this stock was purchased and sold and repurchased several times in order to achieve the return.
A note worth mentioning is that there are rules and I am not too up to date with them or the terminology that would prohibit purchasing and selling the same stock over and over again in a short period of time. If I am not mistaken, if you have shares in a brokerage account that has margin and are classified as a trader, you can do it or if your funds are in Retirement accounts you can do it. So a normal person that just dumps $20,000 into a taxable brokerage account and is not a trader cannot purchase and sell the same stock like I am doing here. I am not a trader but these funds are in a Retirement account.
Do not ask me about these rules or laws because I don't remember them and don't care to look them up. If you care about that, look them up for yourself and feel free to post them here.
I simply wanted to point out that you need to do things correctly and know what you are doing.
I think maybe the term is round trip:
In finance and investing, a "round trip" in the context of stocks typically refers to buying and then subsequently selling the same stock. Here’s how it works:
1. **Buying**: When an investor buys shares of a stock, they initiate the first leg of what could potentially become a round trip.
2. **Selling**: If the investor later decides to sell those shares, they complete the round trip. The profit or loss from this transaction is calculated based on the difference between the buying price and the selling price, adjusted for any transaction fees or commissions.
3. **Purpose**: Investors may conduct round trips for various reasons, such as capitalizing on short-term price movements (day trading), executing a planned trade strategy, or realizing gains (or losses) on an investment.
4. **Regulation**: In regulated financial markets, certain rules may apply to round trips, particularly regarding short-term trading practices and their impact on market stability.
Overall, a round trip in stock trading simply refers to the process of buying and then selling shares of a stock, typically within a defined period. It represents one complete cycle of trading activity for that particular stock.

Since ChatGPT is so easy to use and I have a tab always open for it now, I decided to just ask the rules for round trip trading.
Note how easy and simple ChatGPT is to use. I would never get these concise answers from a google search.
In the context of stock trading, "round trip" rules typically refer to regulations or guidelines imposed by brokerage firms or regulatory bodies to govern certain aspects of trading activity. Here are some common considerations related to round trip rules:
1. **Pattern Day Trading**: One of the most well-known round trip rules applies to pattern day trading. In the United States, a pattern day trader is defined as someone who executes four or more day trades within five business days in a margin account, provided the number of day trades is more than 6% of the total trading activity for that same five-day period.
2. **Minimum Holding Period**: Some brokers may impose a minimum holding period for stocks purchased before they can be sold. This is to prevent traders from engaging in quick "in-and-out" trades that could destabilize stock prices.
3. **Wash Sales**: A wash sale occurs when a trader sells a security at a loss and repurchases the same or a substantially identical security within 30 days before or after the sale. The IRS has rules that disallow the tax deduction for the loss if a wash sale occurs.
4. **Regulatory Compliance**: Brokerage firms and traders must comply with regulations imposed by regulatory bodies like the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). These regulations aim to maintain fair and orderly markets and protect investors.
5. **Margin Trading**: If trading on margin (borrowed money), there are specific rules regarding the minimum equity requirements, maintenance margin, and margin calls that traders must adhere to. Margin trading allows investors to buy more stocks than they could with just the cash in their account, but it also increases the risk.
6. **Trade Reporting**: Brokers are required to report all trades and transactions to regulatory bodies and may have internal systems for monitoring trading activity to ensure compliance with round trip rules and other regulations.
These rules and regulations are designed to maintain market integrity, protect investors from excessive risk, and prevent market manipulation. Traders and investors should be aware of these rules and ensure compliance to avoid penalties or restrictions on their trading activities.

VFIAX is a great fund that is simple. It mimics the S&P 500. I highly recommend it. This is where my money is going after I am done with CXBMF. Money was taken out of VFIAX to pursue the CXBMF venture. Note year to date gain of VFIAX is 18.93% which is very good but I have done over 70% in that same time frame.

I put a buy in for small number of shares with Schwab but its not filling and it shows a commission to buy.

Was your order filled?
My guess is if you purchase around $1.50 where it is now, you can easily make 10% in a short time. My guess is $1.65 is an easy sell point in the near future. I still think it is good for over $2 by years end but, if you want to be safe and it goes to $1.65, you could sell and be happy.
