First Mining Gold Corp (FFMGF)

[irv12]

I have had a large core position in FFMGF for over three years and it has been dead money in my portfolio. Not good, and at least for the foreseeable future, I will wait on Springpole with substantial cash tied up and hope for the best. Obviously hoping for a BIG payoff, but who knows?

But, for the last year I have also had a trading account with FFMGF that, thanks to this board, has been solely responsible for trading gains just shy of 50k. I have been a contrarian buyer over and over as the emotions of the board over share prices, got loud enough to trigger buy signals, and buy I did. (lots!) On rare occasions, when the posters were "happy" with upticks, I went into contrarian mode again, and sold. Rinse and repeat ... rinse and repeat. With the share price recently at a "better place" per the board, it made contrarian sense to sell it all, (especially with a holding core position!), and sell I did.

Now, plenty of cash back in the FFMGF trading account, and it sure seems like the contrarian buying triggers are back. (just started the rinse and repeat buys again, prior to close.) This post probably is fielded as sarcasm, but it is truly meant as a thank you, because without the emotions of the board, I would not have utilized this trading strategy.

I almost feel I owe a 10% broker fee, (especially to three specific posters), which comes to $1600.00 apiece, but please be sure to focus on the word "almost"!
