Another thought crossed my mind - I may have benefitted from a cheaper purchase on ASX - but will I lose out on an price increases, ASX looks terribly quiet trading wise. Perhaps that will change once gas flow results are announced.
I am here for the long haul if I live that long.
Dog just woke me up - she gently licks my hand and arm , so sweet , she likes being by the bedroom door looking down the garden for something to bark at.
I see we are at 5.92p on FTSE. I bought 8920 shares earlier for a grand total of £507.78 (no refund on 40 shares, the reserved amount must have been towards gbp/AUD fx), but my cashback on the credit card is £2.50 (and i have 54 days grace before paying back the credit card)..
8920 @ 5.92p would have cost me £536.06 which in my book is good business? So far I have used the card for £250 (minimum paypal deposit at IG) which has been cleared with no unexpected charges , and £500 today.
I expected my card to declare the payment as a cash advance, which it is , and charge me for it. This seems to be good to be true - but I'll keep you informed.
Just been thinking, Supposing my order was filled barring 1 share and my limit bid was over more than a day and I did not check ...... would these so called trigger trades have an infiltrator in their midst?
I dumped the 40 shares offer after 7am (market was closed I'd hope) but they haven't credited my £7.88 yet.
Cannot see it anywhere
That's interesting! If I get the current price quote it shows my 40 shares bid at 10c on the ticket,. on the other side it shows 198,847 available at @ 10.5Scared to change order limit to 10,5c in case it makes it a separate transaction and I am charged for two transactions. I have 37 minutes for somebody else to try a bid at 10c cos nobody will want to sell 40 shares surely - they'll likely lose money on the trade.
Well, getting bored waiting for my last 40 TOU shares to come in all ,£7.88 worth.
I bid at 10c with buy cell showing (20 mins delay) 10.5c and 0.98c
Used paypal against my credit card to fund the account , get 0.5% cashback and won'thave to pay credit back for about 54 days so quite a good deal? 99% went through in one lump, but those pesky 40 are taking forever (20 minutes so far).Price shows as 10c every now and again but nought happens, you'd think I was top of the 10c queue but I guess not?
BTS , I keep doing it as sure as morning follows night - TLOU and TOU shares!
I keep expecting to have an open ASX market after midnight on Friday , when of course Fridays trading is complete for the week by the time LSE opens. Could not have got an interest free loan tonight anyway - my card company will close my July statement on Saturday (actually today at this time of night).
Been watching Bohemian Rhapsody on the computer - I think I am in love with Lucy Boynton now - and she is dating the guy who plays Freddie (Rami Malik) in real life. His portrayal of Freddie is amazing , not sure if it is his singing we are hearing tbh but he captures the mannerisms so well.
So Sunday night/Monday morning I'll have a go at TOU/ASX ot TLOU/AIM depending on the FX rate. Last night it was cost effective to go the Aussie route.
My rof had a baptism of fire, well water, today. Hardly stopped raining all day - had to wear golf trousers to walk the dog. Roofers have done well, no overflowing gutters or leaks to report!
I know it has gone on a while but in totally reality, which is a world I don't often seem to live in, we are not regressing nor standing still. Might not be flavour of the day today but cometh the hour.... cometh the company. We cannot legislate for investors who have sexy and very volatile stocks on their books (count me in as one of those) but this really is a sleeping colossus if the flow rates come in as everyone expects them too. Its been a slow burn but n my opinion TG's view that this is as good or if not better than his previous enterprises hasn't yet been rubbished yet and it is undoubtedly getting late in the day for that.
Morning Brad.
Open Down and look like staying down for the time being.Even small buys don't budge it.
My wife diagnosed with Ovarian cancer Stage 4 in 2012 - and I stopped riding my motor bike that year.
It has suffered for as long as she did (passing in Sept 2018) but on July 4th I had it collected in order to make it to roadworthy. My bike shop said it could cost £1000, but if the petrol pump has seized it will be another £600. The bike has 5,800 on the clock so thought it worth doing.
Good news is he got it running, fixed the petrol leak (split plastic item in the fuel pipe) , new plugs and oil etc.. and it started up under its own steam!
Bad news is the chrome had lifted on the front forks so the oil seals would not work!
New tyres, wheel bearings, battery, chain and sprocket etc makes it a £1500 estimate. Gave him the ok, and he reckons a week to get it all ready MOT and all.
Better news is one my Koi has come out of hiding after 2 or 3 days, and is looking very chirpy. He was whizzing round the pond so fast I could not tell if it was one or two! Fingers crossed both ofthem survived, and hid at the wild end of the pond. Feared a heron had them when the netting was off and I took the wolf (Labradoodle really) up the park for an hour! At least it means the water is no longer deadly poisonous? Might buy a couple of fish tomorrow to give it or them company.
TOU are 10.5c on ASX and CBA are back to $82+ which must happen with a dividend next month likely? AGM is 7th Aug I think, so dividend news then. Expecting between $2 and £2.4 which is not bad for 6 months. It seems to be $2 fixed in February each year. Return is usually over 5% - a tad better than ISAs in the UK eh?
My credit card starts a new session tomorrow so might buy tomorrow and defer payment by a month or so, after I have the bike back!
