we all need lubricants!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



oil's is in its last parabolic leg. time analysis suggest it should end july til sep (max early oct) as base 3 (or the period covered by X) is only 10 months. in the sample chart of broadvision, the perfect parabolic curve of its X is also 10months and its last leg was due on the 8th time bar. on it's 9th time bar, broadvision broked the key reversal red trendline. im just fascinated by the resemblance of oil's parabolic with broadvision. unfortunately, prices cant be determine but if we use mathematical proportion we can guess. 

broadvision x = 90, high = 138 (did not doubled in percentage but the leg is shortest in percentage increase); gain = 53%

last leg parabolic started 138 to 192 within 8 time bars.
% change = 192/138 = 39%

ratio of % gain: last leg parabolic of boradvision is 73.5% of it's X percentage gain. to show = 39/53 = 0.735
----
oil's x = 50, high = 98 ; gain 96%
oil's last leg started at 88 (base of red trendline)

solving for "guessed" max/high price of oil's last leg:

formula: projected max/high price of last leg = (start of oil's last leg parabolic) times (1+(percentage gain of oil's X) times (ratio of % gain of X and parabolic of broadvision))

given:
ratio of % gain of broadvision's X and last leg = 73.5% or 0.735
start of oil's last leg parabolic = 88
% gain of oil's x = 96% or 0.96

compute:
projected max/high price of last leg = 88 x (1+(0.96 x 0.735))= $150/bbl


caveat. there's no relation between broadvision and oil except similarity of their charts. there are other parabolic chart sample other than broadvision which could lead to different ratios and proportion. so happen both charts have similar wave counts (base 2 to base 3) and time correction pattern (base 4) as well as valid trendlines (4 of them with the red trendline as the key).

this is spyfrat's post. :) spyfrat is a fllod victim and yet he still had the time to write something for us here!!! a true testament for his love of investing and trading. :) i decided to add little flavor to the blog by having a guest writer from a different school of thought. :) but of course i still believe the your investing style really depends on what your goals are and your tolerance for risk and patience. after all short term investors and long term investors are after the same thing PROFIT! we just have a different process of doing it. as they say in school in math class "the process doesnt matter as long as you get the right answer."

ps for any comments, questions or suggestion please email me at compounder888@gmail.com

i will also try to have a fundamental analysis of oil next time if i have the time. :)

a good business

A good business is a business with a “franchise” when i say that i mean a strong following and a solid product. One business with a very strong franchise is a school. :) just take this example from real life when you meet other people what are the few things that you would ask about him. “where did you graduate?” then he'll say ateneo and then you'll say me too! Whats your course? Who are your friends there? It just goes on.and on. :) we all have a certain attachment to our school because we spent a lot of time in our school, we meet our friends there, boyfriends, girlfriends,best friends and it is there that we discover new interests and fields or in other words whether we like it or not we will always be connected to our school for the rest of our lives. can you think of another business that has that kind of following? A school, i believe in its normal operations is a money making machine. :) you really dont need a lot of teachers to run a school. But you do need good teachers to be a reputable school. A school makes a profit from tuition and maybe from other services like research grants which is most of the time sponsored by individuals or companies due to its tax benefits. :) another advantage for a school. :) and when a school plans to put up a building or a new facility what does it do? Fund raising! And where do they usually get the bulk of the funds? From its alumni! :) i hope you get my point that im trying to drive at here. :) well its as if paying tuition is not enough you will still contribute and help your school even after you graduate because as ive said you will always have this attachment to your school. Or sometimes schools get funding from big companies or individuals. They do this to get tax incentives. :) a school is a very good business and with that buy shares thru the psei. :) i think there are three which is feu, ceu and ipo. :) i like ceu and feu. I would be willing to buy ceu at around the 5 range i think its expensive at its present price. Feu is beautiful from my recollection this is one of the few stocks that i bought that spyfrat didnt object. :) i got shares in the first few weeks of 2006 and as of the moment it has more than doubled in price. It was really undervalued when i got shares.:)it is now trading around the 780-850 range and it gives out dividends. :) study the schools in the psei :) you wont regret it. Feu i believe right now is undervalued now but i will not be surprised if its share price will just keep on going up. :) “when holding a great stock time is your best friend, but when holding a bad stock time is your worst enemy.”

as ive said the minimum upside of the market is 3,800 and it was reached last thursday and what do i get out of it? :) at least the market didnt make me look like a fool. Hehehehe :) but i believe that the market will continue its uptrend in the next few weeks. Up to what level it will go up? i couldnt answer that, lets just wait and see. :) as my friend said “dont mind the weather, know the climate.” :)

p.s. My friend rafael stayed home the other day because he had a flu and he did some research on the stock market while he was at home and by some stroke of luck he stumbled upon chiefstocks and he read my critique of him. :) he was a good sport and he took it well. :) but it really doesnt matter because out of 10 things about the stock market that we talk about i think we would only agree on two things! Hehehe so it wouldnt really make a difference anyway. :) im sure rafael would also see the valid points that i raised about him and as smart as he is im sure he would also recognize some of his mistakes and try to correct it. :) hes a smart guy and i know he took it well and then he is also very generous for he gave a considerable amount to my friend paul(he is recovering from a kidney transplant as of the moment and im doing a fund raising for him) and to think that they are both strangers to each other. :) thank you lord that there are still people like that. :) the main goal here is to learn from our mistakes and improve ourselves. I also continuously try to learn everyday from other people and hopefully my blog helps others also. :) value investing makes sure you take advantage of the market whenever it is irrational and not participate in it. :) fly high psei! Good luck and god bless to everyone. :)
