Reassessment – again 6 Dec 2012 | 05:47 pm
Since the last post, which was a while back – The Shire (SHP) bet went, surprisingly, according to plan and closed for the targeted profit of £62! Accendo markets succeeded, after much effort on the...
Continuing bad news 30 Oct 2012 | 12:54 pm
No surprise there then. Both Kentz and Dialight hit their stops with losses of £76 and £25 respectively. Perhaps the Dialight stop was a bit tight, but the Kentz was reasonable and I still can’t see w...
Chicken! 21 Oct 2012 | 12:47 am
Why « chicken »? – Because I was so tempted to open a FTSE short at the end of last week, but the scars of past failures are still haunting me ! So now I am enjoying one of the many “if only” situatio...
A bit of Expertise ! 14 Oct 2012 | 10:11 pm
As someone who is always clicking here and there to receive free reports on this and that from brokers, spread betting firms and the like I get quite a few phone calls vaunting their services – even o...
Square One Again 21 Sep 2012 | 01:06 pm
Still getting it wrong ! The substantial “long term” position, opened yesterday, on Excite (XEL) hit its stop loss this morning when the SP dropped over 5%. Clearly I had thought that a stop loss ...
Reconnection 20 Sep 2012 | 09:25 pm
After a whole week without any internet connection, France Télécom has managed to get it to work, with only occasional interruptions, today ! It turns out that the Melrose limit order that I had hoped...
Melrose on auto-pilot 11 Sep 2012 | 07:44 pm
My posting on September 8th explaining how clever I was going to be in the face of MRO seeming to be on a roll, came to nothing. Having written the post I then went to the IG site to implement it all,...
Melrose surprise 8 Sep 2012 | 10:21 am
I was surprised on Friday evening to see that the Melrose position was at 253.48p and showing a profit of £103.29 profit. Odd, I thought, as the limit sale price was 252.82p, which would have yielded ...
Melrose triggers 5 Sep 2012 | 01:44 pm
I didn’t have to wait long for this to happen! On the face of it this order to buy worked as planned – there was a convenient little spike down in the SP this morning which triggerd my buy order – s...
Return to business 4 Sep 2012 | 04:17 pm
During the summer while I had only occasional internet access I closed the Vectura position at 78.75p, for a profit of £96. This was clearly “a good thing”, but again I failed to follow my initial pol...
