Drop the large O&G companies and go for Canadian medium or small producers. You want less exposure to ESG in the next 2 years. Buy LNG too.
With the rates hikes banking will make lots of money, but you are over allocated.

Im curious as to why you sold so soon on bte? the upside and expected growth for bte seemed reasonable to hold for a bigger gain. I really wish I bought more but Im fairly over weight on oil with bte and su.

I find that the style I use has worked best for me. To be a successful stock trader you have to know what to buy and when to buy and sell. I like to cut my piece of cake right off the top. I find that when a stock starts to move the easiest money is in the first 2/3 of the price. The last third is the most difficult to predict and takes the longest time to reach the predicted maximum price. If it does at all or may even lose some of the gain. I do not guess at what stocks to buy, I am methodical in my choices. An example of what not to do is what Phil C. McNasty ( U-man ) did. He bought BTE and panic sold it when the price went down. ( Post #221 - 229 )

Bought 3,500 shares of Baytex (BTE.TO) @ $7.06 CDN/share

Sold all 3,500 shares of Baytex (BTE.TO) for a $2,500 loss. It was bleeding too much for me.
Very surprising it dropped 10% in less than a week
Compare his situation to mine when I bought BTE. I bought on May 31 and sold it eight days later for a 19.6% profit. My opinion is that I did not miss out on an additional 4.79% that BTE went up today. To take that last piece of profit is to play Black Jack and risk the price dropping. While I mas making profit on BTE I identified several stocks on the way down that has a high probability of making a profit. I try to maximize my time and opportunities and to be as efficient as possible.

There is also the possibility that Putin may announce the withdrawal of troops from Ukraine. this might cause a energy prices to fall when the unsophisticated investors panic.

I understand and it makes sense. Im not a very sophisticated investor as the leg work and research seems very consuming. Im assuming that all your traded a done in a cash account or rrsp since CRA frown upon day trading in the tfsa.

I never claimed to have made huge piles of money, I just make stock predictions that have the possibility of making almost 20% profit as compared to U-mans losses of 10%. The truth of the matter is that I make these prediction to annoy U-man. I have a time machine and go forward in time to see the stock prices in the future.

FYI - If you make 10% a month on your money and re-invest your profits your money will triple in a year.

U-man,

Do not tell me you actually believe what I said. I make stock predictions that result in 20% - 30% pay offs and you think I do not profit from it. You must truly be a U-man smoking crack and living in a carboard box.

Once you develop a style that works then it becomes much easier and less time consuming. Yes, I trade only in a cash account, I have been offered margin accounts many times. I do not believe in using margin accounts because it may become a bad habit. I even have a rule against drinking and gambling on a credit card, cash only. The CRA even considers trading in the same 120 days to be trading short term.

I'll probably sell when/if the Ukraine war ends.

We'll see how it goes
yup Ive been on the fence about cashing out at $60, however the oil market will continue to grow given the current war. I dont see oil producers increasing their output to a point of lowering the cost per barrel. they have increased output but at no where near the requirements to drop oil prices.
