I know a trader who has exclusively traded the Breakout and Retest strategy for five years. He has been a profitable trader for as long as I have known him.
If that specific setup is not on the chart, he simply travels or goes to play golf.
An ETF, or Exchange Traded Fund, is a security designed to hold a variety of assets—such as stocks, bonds, or REITs—and is traded on the stock exchange exactly like a standard share.
You can view it as purchasing a single product that grants you immediate ownership across multiple companies simultaneously.
A prime example of a strong ETF is the **IBTC ETF30**.
The **Stanbic IBTC ETF 30** is structured to track the performance of the **NGX 30** index. This index represents the 30 largest and most liquid companies listed on the NGX.
Instead of purchasing each stock individually, investors can acquire one ETF to secure proportional exposure to all 30 companies. This allows you to leverage the performance of numerous companies at once through a single purchase.
**Why People Invest in ETFs:**
✅ **Diversification** Risk is distributed across many different companies rather than concentrated in one.
✅ **Low Cost** It is generally cheaper than acquiring numerous individual stocks separately.
✅ **Beginner-Friendly** It serves as an accessible and easy way to begin your investing journey.
✅ **Transparent** You have full visibility regarding which companies are included in the fund.
✅ **Liquid** ETFs can be sold on the exchange at any time.
The **Stanbic IBTC ETF 30** consists of the following 30 companies:

Something occurred just a few minutes ago that truly broke me.
I pulled into the fuel station to fill up, and because there was a man ahead of me, I stepped out of my car and waited for him to make his purchase.
I stood directly opposite this gentleman, who appeared visibly troubled, and I watched him hand the forecourt assistant 2k.
He brought out a gallon container and requested that she put 1k of fuel in the car and the other 1k of fuel in the gallon.
This man was driving a Lexus 300, so initially, this did not make sense to me. However, when I drove out of the fuel station, tears filled my eyes because I remembered the past (a story for another day).
When I saw him pull out the 2k, I debated whether I should offer to help or not. I hesitated because I wondered how his wife would feel, seeing as she was sitting in the car with their child.
Thinking about it now, I feel terrible. I cannot explain if he was in a difficult situation or if my brain is playing tricks on me, but I feel deeply sad.
I really wish I had offered to help, even if that help had been rejected.
Men are going through a lot in this country.
Please be kind to your spouse.
Be kind to the people around you.
Offer help when you can.
Most people are wearing a mask because they do not want to be mocked.

Inform them that you held shares prior to the delisting; they will ask for your CSCS details or certificate details and advise you on the next steps.
📌 **Ensure you go with the following documents:**
* A valid ID card. * Share certificate (if you held physical shares) or your CSCS account statement. * Bank account details to receive payment. * Certificate of indemnity (if your certificates are lost). * Proof of ownership (such as a broker statement or purchase receipt).
**Note:** This process may be slow, but please follow it through to retrieve your funds.
Cultivate the habit of randomly hugging your children, giving them a peck, and telling them "I love you" without needing a specific reason. On average, I hug and peck my kids at least 10 times daily. Furthermore, unless I am out of town, they hear "I love you" from me every day before bedtime.
These therapeutic actions facilitate bonding and create emotional synergy between you and your children. I have done this repeatedly since the day their father and I brought them home from the hospital.
Now, my kids randomly walk up to my workspace to hug and peck me for no reason. Just tonight, while I was preparing dinner for my first daughter, she randomly approached me for a hug and asked to peck me.
I smiled, realizing that what they watch you do repeatedly is exactly what they will duplicate when they begin to raise their own kids. Stop being stingy with affection or acting "macho" toward your children. One day, they will all be grown, and you will wish you had established that bond with them. It is either you parent the right way now, or wish you had later.
Imperfection is a burden we bear throughout our lives. No matter how intently you strive to do things correctly, errors are inevitable; if you do not falter today, you likely will tomorrow. It seems the world is designed in such a way that nothing within it remains truly flawless.
Therefore, do not wait for your business plan to be perfect before you execute it. Stop expecting your partner to be flawless before you put effort into making your marriage or relationship fulfilling. Do not wait for your children to achieve perfection before you feel they are worthy of your guidance, and stop expecting your boss to be perfect before you decide to give your best effort.
We are destined to live with imperfect people in an imperfect world—raising imperfect children—for the rest of our days. "Perfection" simply does not exist in the human experience. However, once you embrace this reality, you will begin to extend grace to those around you, and just as importantly, to yourself.
Here are the authoritative official channels to verify which stocks face potential delisting on the Nigerian Exchange (NGX).
**1. NGX Official Website – Corporate Disclosure Page**
This section provides critical updates including regulatory announcements, trading suspensions, delisting notices, and compliance matters. It also details enforcement actions and information regarding schemes of arrangement (for example, companies facing notices of suspension or delisting).
**Link:** https://t.co/bUIfkZq8Yo
**2. NGX Delisted Companies List**
To view companies that have already been removed from the exchange, consult this specific page. It displays the date the stock was delisted and the rationale behind the action (whether Regulatory or Voluntary).
*Note:* This resource tracks only completed delistings and does not display pending cases.
This page features the Release Calendar, which includes scheduled market announcements from the NGX. It also frequently lists company notifications regarding compliance issues, trading suspensions, and other regulatory developments that often lead to delisting.
**4. SEC Nigeria Announcements**
The Securities and Exchange Commission often publishes corporate actions filed by listed companies. These include schemes of arrangement, takeovers, and notices regarding the discontinuation of listing compliance.
For early indicators, it is advisable to monitor the SEC Nigeria website under the "Corporate actions/Announcements" section.
**5. NGX Daily Official List**
Located within the NGX "Market data" section (typically available as a PDF), the daily official list displays all securities currently available for trading. If a stock is marked as suspended or disappears from this list entirely, it is a strong indication that delisting is around the corner.
Just as crypto exchanges remove specific tokens or coins, stocks are also subject to being delisted.
It is your responsibility to verify whether a stock has been placed on the NGX delisting watch list. Typically, the warning signs become apparent 6 months or 1 year before the actual delisting occurs.
A company’s stock risks being delisted under the following conditions:
* It fails to publish its audited accounts. * It repeatedly misses annual or quarterly filings. * The share price remains excessively low for an extended period with no indication of recovery. * Liabilities exceed assets. * The company becomes technically insolvent. * There is no functioning board in place. * There are unresolved fraud cases or regulatory sanctions. * There is a breach of free-float requirements. * The company ignores NGX directives or fails to hold AGMs.
The financial market is not a space to enter without adequate knowledge. If you neglect the basics, you will pay for it with cold cash.
To the "Our Oil" gang and those concerned that America is going to steal oil: please come and listen closely. This approach is far better than the discount sales Maduro was previously involved in. For the first time, the money will actually reach the people of Venezuela. We must prioritize humanity over sentiment.
Stop trying to get liked. Stop trying to get validated.
I tell people I am not a nice person, and I say it consciously. I don’t ever try to be liked.
In fact, if you are very close to me and say, “Adaora is a nice person,” I will interrupt you and say, “I am not.”
When you try to be liked, you try to become nice. You compromise principles and slip up when you shouldn’t. You say “Yes” when you should say “No,” and you say “No” when you should say “Yes.”
Try to be respected—that is all.
And if people choose to disrespect you, weed them out of your space; it simply means they are not in your “tribe.”
What I owe my world is “Value,” not “Niceness.”
