2. The Post mustcontain a first line in the following syntax: STTCOMP [Ticker][Type][Direction]. Example: STTCOMPABC FA LONG, where ABC denotes the stock code (ticker). Note: Tips areextracted by an automated search, therefore, any deviation from the abovestandard syntax might exclude a tip from the search, hence may not beconsidered a valid entry.
3. Following the firstline of the Post explained above, it must contain a brief overview of thestock, including information such as Shares on Issue (SOI), Market Cap (MC),Cash in Hand (CiH) and its main business / operations.
4. Then the Post mustcontain a detailed description of the Catalyst or Reason the tipster expects tomove the stock price. For example, a FA upcoming event/reason or a TA setupwhich would be the catalyst to move the price of the stock. Tips with poordescriptions or containing only graphics (even though the graphics. i.e. chartswith texts, may present substantial backing) might void the entry.
5. If a tipsterintends to enter tips for both TA and FA tips for the same stock, two separateposts must be created.

See a sample entry below:

 

=========================================== 
STTCOMP CBX FA LONG

Bauxite Explorer in Queensland and WA
Market Cap (MC) $5m

Cash in Hand (CiH) $1.5m.

Top 5 shareholders hold 80% so very tightly held Fallen from grace last yearafter its lead Bauxite project Pisolite Hills which was moving towardsproduction and had off-take agreements in place was placed in a mining ban area.Company is pushing ahead with its secondary project Bauxite Hills which isfairly advanced and has a PFS already. Company has the support and backing ofmajor shareholder MTE who has pledged to use its cash reserves to assist inproject development.

Given the huge re-rating of QBL over the past few weeks and the manysimilarities the 2 companies seem to share, similar tight share structures,favourable locations to port and infrastructure, shallow near surface depositsamenable to free digging and so low-cost mining and extraction. CBX might bewell positioned for a large re-rating too.
