No obsession with spreadbetting..i have a few friends who buy buy but can't afford it and then they lose coz they close their positions, no money..and then they repeat..thats why i only buy shares and never spreabet..but each to their own if they want to lose their trousers!!!! This volatility is good for me as I have dry powder..lets wait and see where we are at the end of summer..surely a lot higher. DYOR.
Yep frustrating took months to get a years high and a week to lose it . Oh well
Not sure why airline stocks are not in favour.
Just landed in Milan and the flight was packed and the tickets were not exactly cheap even though I bought them a good while is advance.
I am heavy IAG but was considering diversifying a bit but ‘O Boy’ am I glad o stayed put.
Hope you guys get some respite soon, this is painful to watch even sat on the fence.
That's what i am on my Vodka
@ Stille no bikini strap lines on your return :-)
Sund
Whats the obsession youhave with spread betting recently
Have you just found out what it is or something
It will go up again. Don't sell when it drops like this. I personally just add more.
I was on 4 inter European flights this month and the flights were full andevery airport was full no mattter time of day. I live on Spain and during the 1st quarter they had a record number of tourists and the majority fly here. I don't see a price war happening, rather the opposite based on my own experience.
Profit taking, tree shaking..it can also go up 20-30 pence in a couple of days, lets not forget that. we would be back at £5..this is normal for a stock, airline to lose 20% before going up 30%...they transfer money from the impatient and those who sadly cannot afford spreadbetting to the patient..
You’re not alone mate,keep thinking the same .
Even bought a few more.
£5:90 last month now where will it turn .
Anyone hazard a guess as to what is behind this?
Cant be the 10 mill miss on guidance can it?
The trick is to keep adding...nibbling is the best thing to do if you believe in the company.. this is a good shake of the tree as they say. and it's working wonders..Happy either way, if it falls further i will add more..if it goes up, i will take profits in stages. DYOR.
This sucks.
I thought I got in @ a bargain price of 4.94, jesus Mary and Joseph, sat here for last couple of days thinking "it's hit the bottom" how much more can it drop.....
When people start selling like some are now saying on this board, it's actually a buy signal..time to move on for some but opportunity for others..I shall top up more when US opens. GLA.
Ezy - once one of my favourite companies - is tanking and there’s no resistance from institutional investors to halt it - or even see a “bargain”
Goodness knows where this will end
There’s cancer in this company - someone wants to ruin it - and meanwhile we are losing our shirt. Not for me anymore. I’ll take the hit and move on.
Would love to know what all the minute by minute options trades are….this stock obvs now got BoA attention for very good reasons….hmmm…got to be brave to fight the algos
I use the 61.8% fib (although not as consistently as I probably should). I use a number of other indicators such as the main moving averages, as well as things like the VIX, DXY and various commodity spot prices (the latter useful for some cases).
There are so many potential indicators that I try not to 'overdo' it, so to speak. I only have a certain amount of brain power and concentration span, lol.
And I still find it difficult sometimes to ignore the market and just trade the charts. Work in progress and looking to continue to build this knowledge and understanding - which is when these chat boards can be most splendid sometimes.
Thanks for your further comments, Stupmy. I will post here again if I take the plunge and if that day does not come, then GLA and I hope you make some good profits here.
Added at 466.14p for a trade to sell for tomorrow bounce after the inflation falling news.
could hold with positive news from inflation tomorrow
the narrative so far has been that despite inflation high, travel demand high due to missing out during covid...
narrative will change soon, possibly from tomorrow that inflation is down and people will now able to "afford" ticket prices
Mr shiney it might sound winey, easy jets gonna fly take your timey , You ask stelios he tell us why , easy jet share soon be flying high , See you then best of luck ,we hold the line might make a buck 🥳
I do look at MA's LWHL and I do think they give you very important information. I favour weekly, daily and particularly 2h charts. For Fibs, the 61.8 retracement is frequently hit so Rob's view might have a decent chance of coming to fruition (that fits also with your 450 area).
There a few 'rules' (ideas?) worth considering. You probably know them anyway. One is 'price first' (basically a nod to the fact that indicators are derived from price and are therefore 'lagging').
LWLH, I can't really shoot you down. You're making the effort to see through the clouds and to be honest, you're guess is as good as mine. What you say, makes sense. Round numbers do have an impact on buyers and sellers (I'd caution though they have a bigger impact on PI's than serious players).
For the moment, the sellers are struggling to take it lower, but there's no evidence from my point of view that the buyers are there in sufficient force to suggest we're about to move up. Spotting the potential opportunities is helpful, but at the end of the day, if you want to be close to the turn, you have to sit and watch the price action. To say this is boring is an understatement. But getting it right makes you a lot of money. If I bought now, my interpretation of TA would already have been successful as I've been waiting from 580. But I could still be a way off whatever the low is going to be. It's better to wait for evidence of a turn.
Inflation report tomorrow might give it a nice boost!!!!!!!
Sorry - misread the dates on the chart - it is not a confirmed break yet. IMO, if it stays below the 200 today and tomorrow then it will be. GLA.
Ignore those posters and continue to post your thoughts, please.
Many of us enjoy and appreciate hearing TA, especially those of us who are trying to improve our skills and understanding of this particular niche area, to try and get better at this stuff.
In my simplistic TA view, this is a confirmed break below the 200 now.
I am going to get interested if we see circa 450p (because round numbers like this seem to have an impact on buyers/sellers, so not a trend line number).
Of course, if for example the SP closes above that circa 483p level today and holds above it for at least a couple of trading days, then that might signal that the bottom is in. And I will miss the boat on a potential trade.
Feel free to shoot me down in flames...and obviously just an opinion...if I knew for certain, I would be typing this comment on a private island :) GLA.
Its wishful thinking...but you are more than welcome to wait for that low price..I nibbled already and i believe there will be many more cycles up and down before we get to yr entry level..I love all the volatility because we get rid of some players on the way, the ones that want to make a quick buck but end up losing or the ones that spreadbet and get caught!!! Happy to wait for £5 or £5,30 now..GLA.
