If we can break out of this 205 area happier days are ahead.
BARC looks like its threatening to breakout here. Its trying to leave a channel its been stuck in for years
Any recommendations on US stock to buy atm ? Thank you
@Moby77 - Hi there M' sorry to see your off.
Wise move though, far more profitable shares out there atm.
Barclays are far from out of the woods just yet.
As they say "One door closes and another opens" though I'll bid you a farewell in the scripted words of V.J playing Big Chris "It's been emotional" lol Keep well and wish you profitable trades ahead.
Regards W'
I think trend changed with FTSE 100 stocks.
US investors not shorting FTSE 100 much IMO
With FED not likely to cut the rates till the near end of the year, money is coming into FTSE 100.
can't see BARC going to 180s again anytime soon unless war escalation start again
@Rookie1 - Good call on the back of yesterday's ripple over the pond.
Had a paw on the mouse myself this mornings on the open.
Good Evening Wolfey. Great to hear from you. I was wondering whether you were off on a world cruise with Mrs W as we have not heard from you for a while. As you say lots of newbies on here adding their optimistic enthusiasm.
Having reached the dizzy heights of £2, I am out. I can't remember a time when I didn't have Barclays shares. Maybe I have jumped too soon but I have been here abouts many times and regretted not quitting whilst I was winning. The big boys are controlling this share (and maybe many other shares too) and even though Barclays have sent out noises about their dividends, history has taught me that anything can happen. April 2020 taught me that nothing is as it seems so all in all it was time to get out.
I would like to wish the Board the best of luck and good wishes for this share and now I am out, I wouldn't be surprised if it soars like an Eagle. GLA
Short opened today. Short term technical play but I see this back at 180 in the next week or two.
Sorry, very childish to gloat I know.
Afternoon to all regulars and a few newbies I see.
Looks like we are experiencing some short term consolidation, recent Head & Shoulders pattern targets 195.
We should see a move down to that area, before we clamber back up.
FTSE showing signs of a 8100 ish, so don't get caught if your shorting the obvious there, something which I did warn others at the back end of 23, when 95% of retail were shorting the DAX at mid to late 16's.
Lots do not realise the ECB via D'bank and likes, were ploughing (propping it up) small fortunes, whilst smacking Shorters bottoms at the same time.
Though their own fault for presuming it was only bad data and audi keeping it afloat.
Without one stating the obvious (hence I've not bothered to log in and post) the key area is 213 - 228, once we put that aside its back to "taking candy off the the bay".
As per Honkey Tonks, GLA

RBC raises Barclays price target to 260 (255) pence - 'outperform'
We just need to cross 210p and then it is all blue skies!
207p hit already today but dropped with US markets I think?
But I'm glad the years of misery are finally at an end here.
Should be passing under the 15bn shares in issue mark today AND beating 1 year highs to boot. Come on barc.
I couldn't agree more on Ukraine. Fighting to the last Ukrainian is about as sensible as the tactic used on the Somme. All avoidable too as a peace deal was almost agreed in 2022 only to be scotch the by the USA/UK to enable the political class in Congress to line their pockets.
I think barc can hit 275 this year. Anything over 3 seems unlikely.
I think we have some way to personally and do not think 250p is out the question for this year.
But as always who knows, the Ukraine Noto proxy war is just starting and the Russians have been very clear where that will go if Biden and the stupid Europeans decide to go all in.
We will all be worrying about the next meal and whose at the door rather than the BARC sp.
Keepsim, A profit is a profit so take the win. At the end of the day if you are happy with the profit when you sell then that is all that matters. You are the master/mistress of your own destiny. If it subsequently go up further then don't give it a second thought and certainly don't think what if. That share could quite easily have dropped. Heck knows I have been there lol. A profit is a profit so well done you. Continued good fortune in all your dealings. Rgds, S
Depends where you put RR funds after you sell . If the new stock you own goes up, then it’s just the difference , but if it goes down, the missed opportunity is compounded by a loss
Hence me wondering whether to sell Barc and buy phnx
I'd held RR for nearly 2 years and sold it off for a 'NOT' very good profit (still a profit).
T's interesting. Does anyone know when a share price shoots up?
I'd held RR for nearly 2 years and sold it off for a very good profit (still a profit). But a few months after I sold, it doubled and then tripled.
I read and reread many forums. All that time, people kept saying it would double, but no one said it would triple.
Is it just that some people get lucky, or do people know something?
Can Barclays (Barc) hit 250 / 275 / 300 / 325? We'd need a magic crystal ball for that
Wondering whether to sell my funds here now and move them to phnx who are down but doing well?
Yeah think this will pop up to the 215-230 range in pretty short order.
2% down was inevitable after such a rise yesterday, a little bit of profit taking before 📈
Looks like barc had a turn now better
Why down 4 percent ?
