DO YOU KNOW THAT SETTLEMENT PERIOD FOR US STOCKS IS "T+1
This week a Nigerian stockbroker confirmed that for Nigeria Market is T+3, yes correct the new T+2 is to start from November 2025.

But for US stocks, if you sell today, you can withdraw the proceed tommorrow, Chaka is king here on the 2nd day you press transfer and your alert will sound within 3 minutes of pressing the transfer button, 100% for Chaka here. On the other hand, Trove has added the Nigerian factor and made it t+3 via the backdoor, you press the transfer button and like they tell you "transfer will be concluded ater 2 business days and until after 2 business days after you process your withdrawal, the money will not drop into your ". And I will say Trove is still manageable, at least you get your money but delayed for extra 2 days when compared with CHAKA'S withdrawal.

For vest, I have not tried withdrawal, but you know that you can withdraw directly to you Nigeria bank just like you do with Chaka or Trove. Opening with Vest is compelling now with the way CHAKA is becoming non challant to Customers complaints and Troves minimum commission clause. Also, if there is a Stock you cannot get in VEST (you email them and they tell you it cannot be added), that stock will not be an investable stock.

Today market not too bad. Inflation report saved the day.. Happy investing to all. This is a forum to be

What is your advice on Securities lending? Is it generally a good turn on that extra feature?
_______________
Most brokers do it. They lend securities to Hedge funds and other big players. Here the broker is responsible for all the risk involved. You as the owner of the securities get some nominal payments.Vest Investment does it if you agree and from time to time they credit the interest/dividend for whatever has been lent out to your , but amount is always very small.

There, is no big risk to your . I believe most stock brokers in Global stocks do it and it is only the truthful ones that tells you and pay you the interest (Pls don't start suspecting some APPs for not paying you from security lending), but you are free to ask your platform why you are not getting paid for security lending?

MARKET UPDATE- US STICK PICKS
Today the market is looking forward to a weak non farm payroll as a catalyst for early than previously envisaged Fed Rate Cut.

So all things being equal, expect a bullish day. And if Trump also reach more agreement with Chinese President, expect the market to blow up.

How do we trade this and which stocks can we buy? The Caucus has the answer and our have stocks to watch for today.

Wishing all ha. Eid Holiday.

MARKET UPDATE- US STICK PICKS
I am enjoying this Global market due. This market is like a mini ATM with the advent of weekly dividend paying stocks and many more stocks ing in paying dividend weekly, this s game changer.

Sorry that r not posting, this shit business is sometimes a very serious business, especially when you are weighted to a particular sector and you try to diversify. Diversification is very essential for longevity in the market. So, do not be in penny stocks 100%, I will not be in 100% dividend stocks too. We have to try and strike a balance.

Happy Eil-de Kabir to the Muslims. For us business continues tommorrow and Monday, but don't pity us we love it. [color=#006600][/color]Actually making the stock market open is in CBOE and will come in some years time.

TARGET TECHNICAL ANALYSIS MARKET COMMENT
Today will be a bullish day. So for Caucus we told the member to buy early 16 minutes after market opening. All the stocks on our watchlist today should put money in our pocket. We even look at a situation were we are buying what one big money is buying this big money must have done all the work, we just ride on their back.

For the big money reason, I am selling one of my loss making stock and buying that stock: N-- - S and - - - V

Happy Eid to the Muslims in advance and for all,let us enjoy this likely green day

TODAY- CHAKA'S PLATFORM IS DOWN
Our local brokers need to improve. CHAKA'S Platform has not worked since the market opened. They have been informed prior to opening of market but they never responded!!!

Sometimes we just try to tolerate these our local Apps.

MARKET UPDATE 2 JUNE- DON'T BE A QUACK TRADER
Today is a day where there was a lot of juggling to prevent our portfoliod from going negative in the early hours of the market. Again without a strong foundation in technical analysis (plus zero commission broker), I don't know how one would have been able to go through the juggling process of trading in and out of about 3 stocks, that is 6 trades. If I am using Trove $1.50 (One dollar fifty cents), that is the minimum commission would have gone to the broker.

We executed our trades as planned,sold some stocks and replaced them with another. But our 3 musketeer stocks stays in our watchlist.

Today taught us that we should not hold on too tight to any stock even if NVDA or TSLA. The only stock I will accept if it is going down are dividend paying stocks and here the sector matters fro time to time. When I look at stocks like EDIT, SAVA. even NIO. these were stocks in the $100 to $50 range in those days, but have now become penny stocks, I now accept that there will always be few people that can be in this forum for long or be making noise like what is happening in NSEMPA.

This is a brutal environment andarket is ready to take you money especially if your intention is to make money first and the learn the ropes later, it is like being a quack Doctors first and after you will go and lean Medicine properly. We all know this cannot be possible. The law or can we call it the market now, will catch up with the quack and throw him or her out of business or the market (reality, so many people have been thrown out of this market we are sorry for them, we hope they will come back). This is the reality of education being expensive?

The above reason is why we emphasised that we need a trading system first. Even if we are getting signals from Warren Buffett, we may not be able to make profit as we may not know the best time to enter traders. And mind you, Buffett or the funds can absorb bigger losses and dollar cost average as a stock falls (dollar cost averaging will not work for most midcaps or stock that do not have sound fundamentals).

Still not a bad day. We still have till Friday if we have bought any gold stocks, we should just hold on.

We need to keep our motivation, especially on the Coffee can stocks, surving the market is not easy.

TRADING NUGGET- TRADING CAN BE RISKY AND DANGEROUS
Before I used to be worried that this forum has few people, but mind you it was not like this before!!!

One of the reason is the fact that if you have what I called a reasonable small figure to play with and you are heavily weighted to a particular stock. Yes let us assume you are using $100 and you have a particular stock worth $80 and that stock falls by $16, you are likely to feel bad to take that loss and you watch the loss becoming like $50. So, tell me how will you be happy, I am sure you will not come and be posting here about the market.

Big lesson here is let us keep our stop loss small and let us know that making losses is part of the game and diversification is essential, do not put all our eggs in one basket.

Also, note that trading is not like a regular Day job, profitable opportunities may not be available everyday. There are days you should not do anything, like today: things were setting up well for a bullish day only for the employment report and others to come and turn things to the bearish side. So, I have to caution myself and say tommorrow will be another day.

Let us approach this investment thing in a proper way. As a newbie, start first with good dividend stocks in your Portfolios, you need to have a good defence in this game, like someone said "don't be like ManU in the olden days used to Dundee United grin cheesy ", the club's defence is not strong once they are consistently under pressure they are likely to consid a goal.

Good Evening Boss

Trust you’re doing good?
Which platform is best to buy global stock and Nigeria stock.

Thanks

You need to separate Nigeria stocks from Global stocks. For Global stocks, best platform for now is vest Investment. The gap between vest and the local Apps (Chaka, Trove, Bamboo: here I will choose Trove & Chaka, but they are becoming old school) for US stocks is becoming too much.

For Nigeria stocks use Morgan Capital, United Capital .
is also good.

If you try and use Bamboo, Trove , Chaka for Nigeria stocks you will be short changing yourself. For Nigeria stocks use strictly reputable Nigeria stockbrokers platform

Today premarket is looking fine. We look forward to NVIDIA earnings later in the day (looking at Tariff brouhaha, we may not see jump on price as a negative future guidance may come with the result despite the Quarta deal). But, let us fold our hands and wait.

Nuclear/Uranium stocks are in play at the moment.

At the Caucus we talk Nigeria stocks too. For today we mentioned: NPFmfb, as a good buy on the Nigeria side.

Today is holiday, we are relaxing. We expect the market to open bullish tommorrow. (there is likely to be no negative news).

Tariff matter is still boiling plus Feds Vs. Trump. AI seems the Feds are united the the fact that any rate cut will have to wait till around September on the risk that tariff induced inflation risk need to be assessed.

One of the areas that should sustain the bulls should be URANIUM industry.

Wishing all a peaceful holiday.

Just like what happened in the Nigeria market recently, we made some good profits using our chart cheat. Now for US market l, just focusing on 3 stocks seems to be the buzzword for profiting the market.

Our Caucus already have these 3 stocks. These days, the market is treating us so well that we do not even open some of our trading platforms for days. You can only do this when you have little risk facing you.

Do you want to trade with less in the market. Then you need to the Caucus.

*WEEKEND GIST- GLOBAL STOCK MARKET 17 MAY 2025*
Yesterday was a good for us in the US market, we saw one of our medium term plays did 74% for the day. A very good unexpected performance, it seems longevity in the market sometimes bring good luck. It is like being in the religious ground on the day that the angel of miracles is visiting.

Below is how we moved the gain around to other stocks.

Our Caucus have more explanation as to how we played the game and what we will do next.

If you want to jam some luck like this, come and us in the Caucus (it is not free but extremely cheap, less than $2 and is in Naira), imaging the gain in that stock mentioned in paragraph one, will give you close to 3 years hip due for the Caucus.

Sorry we cannot make the Caucus free, our 2 wifi expired this weekend, we have to pay for the renewal to continue our research, some of the stocks picks are even from paid subscriptions too only that we further refine them to come out with stocks we recommend as buy candidates. So, in Nigeria looking at cost of things, it I a little bit difficult to give free ideas that takes our time, but puts money in your pocket most of the time, we will still give free gist from time to time but at our own convenience. This is the reason we stopped the 2 days test drive, (we give one day sample only).

Wishing everybody the best. As regards where we move the money from and how we will still be lucky like this, our Caucus have the full gist.

Happy weekend to all.

Today should
Market looks fragile and volatility of yesterday heightened the risk level. So we do not wish to buy stocks yet, we want to look at possibility of further pullbacks.

However, in Caucus we discuss only one "gambling' okay let us call it penny stock we will buy as long as it has not gained more than 10% when market opens. We are to hold this stock till it gives profit (this stock will deliver) there is no guarantee but it is high probability, the stock is likely to collapse into a new stock later.

Sorry, the stock is not in Chaka. It is best traded in a commission free platform like Vest Investment.
Wishing everybody the best.

Today should be used to manage our present positions. If the labour report and I are positive, we may see the bullish trend returning back to the stock market. The hot industries that are coming up remains same: Oil (this is a conservative buy and for stocks we can hold for long term only), Bitcoin (for medium timeframe- new money is pouring here), Chinese stocks (if we can do short term trades), SEMICONDUCTOR,, TRANSPORTATION

The reports are due at US market opening time.

Meanwhile, this morning stocks are opening bearish.

As long as NVDA and TSLA are in the premarket gainers, the reduced tariff is still at play.

We still believe market conditions is still same, we expect the uptrend to continue as the tariff agreement plus nes money pouring into blockchain products will keep making new in the market.
