Now I'm considering 3 options: - open position in IPL.UN, average down NA.T, average up PG.N... or just buy TD high yield mutual fund for 1.25%

The dividend on all 3 would beat your high yield mutual fund, not to mention does not have the MER's. I'd go with the stock that you believe is best for fundamentals, technicals, and upside potential.

Rogers does not offer a Share Purchase Plan (SPP) so there's no point in entering into a direct DRIP with them.
True DRIP/SPPs don't exist within registered accounts; you're a share owner without a broker, paying no commission to purchase and receiving a discount on shares when buying. (in some cases - see the linked page for companies offering discounts)
There you are Gibor; you were MIA.
You did great with PALL; I bought SWC and as with many other stocks, it has been severely punished since I bought. However, as I traded it also, I'm not bankrupt yet.
- Traded ARNA/UUU.
- Regretting having sold a large % of shares in MLNX; I knew in my gut that this stock would fly from the time I bought 2 years ago, which had been my top tech pick as well [I believe also one of the most active in the TA exchange].![]()

Topping up on a bit of ZAGG while it's down, limits in on IMMR, INTC, LMQT, and, to average down my positions, MQL and Mela. Hopefully both can do something over the next couple of months and I can get out of them and into better vehicles- don't really feel like cutting my losses yet. Live and learn- I guess this is what your first year is all about! Got my BMO and SLF limits filled recently. Looking at Staples while it's down. Hoping for a drop in KO and CNI soon. And I wish Canfor would come up a bit so I can get out and move on.

T.gal it was pure luck....when I opened discount brokerage account at CM, I read some article bullish on PALL and PPLT, I liked the reasons author provided and bought about 70% PALL and 30% PPLT, as mentioned sold 2/3 of PALL with gain, left 1/3 as I'm still bulish on Palladium for a long term , but I stuck with PPLT and this is really "dead" money as no dividends are paid...
A smart decision it was; not just luck Gibor & you did well to sell when you did.
My stock does not pay dividends either, but that's why I trade it, so you could call them trading dividends, only that I don't have to wait a quarter for them.![]()

Considering putting an order in on COS while its down, but the energy portion of my portfolio is already considerably high...
maybe you are right...., but later i had stupid decision by buying DBA PowerShares DB Agriculture Trust, read articles of several known analysts who said that "DBA should be part of every portfolio"
Logically it shouldn't go down so sharply... population in China, India ... are growing and need to eat, there are always hurricanes or droughts in different parts of the world, but it going down and down...and I don't know what to do with it....![]()
