sell!
I think that would be a wise move. A lot of news and panic can develop in 3 days before the markets re-open. 70p used to be achievable on this share but I think 65p is now the likely the resistance level in the short term, so getting out at 64p with a profit and your money back in your hands ready to strike when the market falls makes sense to me.
yeh im planning to sell 64p+ today I can see abit of a crash next week in the entire market, the flu is spreading fast so im gona be out
FP volume is pretty low so far today and if it continues like this the share will likely just keep on treading water today. If any real action is going to happen it will probably be in the last hour today.
yeh qatari has dissapeared! lol oh well
Forgot Monday is a Bank Holiday, so the falls I am expecting may come Tuesday particularly when everyone has had a longer break to digest whats been happening in the market. I think there will be a good number who think this run can't continue. My advice yesterday was to get out at 64p and take the profits on offer and that remains today.
Keeping an eye on this one. Too high for me to come in yet still. Rest of sector down bar LGEN which has gone absolutely crazy. FTSE has recovered from early falls now, perhaps the falls will come on Monday now? I still think prices have generally gone silly in the last few days and it has to reverse soon. PS Just noticed that all of qatari1's posts that I read this morning have now disappeared???
fp. appointed new ceo from standard life, shes meant to be 'sexy'
going up slowly :-) but stupid me lost out on lpx got burnt :-(
Thanks for your input mate, I will bear it in mind tomorrow. :)
i canot see it falling much below 60p or rising above 70p in the very near future. its not the most exciting share but is a reasonably safe one to hold iv been in and out of it a few times.i got in at 63 the other week and am quite happy to hold i may be unlucky and it may drop to 50p but should get up to 70+at some point take a look at the graphs to see how its performed in the past.long term anything could happen cittyslicker mentions in a post this afternoon that somebody recons the ftse could tank to 3200 dont forget we are in a ressesion its no where near over yet enjoy the rises but dont get carried away. iv read various articles the general feeling is the ftse will end the year at about 4900 i have also read that it could go as low as 2200 at some point . its no use laughing it off anything could happen. be on your guard and dont just believe what you want to believe greed is normally peoples downfall. good luck all
? I was asking if there was a likely hood that the sp would drop below the close much tomorrow before it heads towards 70. Any thoughts? Im just looking to buy in again with another 1k but wont bother unless the price is right. Im already making a healthy profit but it would be a shame to miss out on some extra if its heading north again soon
Well Im glad I stayed in guys, were on a good close so lets see what tomorrow brings. :) Is there a good chance it could drop before rising to 70 perhaps?
bloody hell LPX was up 250% worth a punt at £500?
I just seen a post in the JJB forum, one guy claims the ftse will tank to 3200 points?? Where has he got that one from???
Its up to the individual investing, but ive started small, so i look to make around £150-£200 per trade and i usually execute an average of 2-3 trades a week. On each share il stake an average of 2.7k But im planning to increase a lot in the next few weeks. As far as buys im waiting for tomorrow to see what happens and then check out news over weekend.
What do you see as a buying oppurtunity? And how much would you put at stake? Do you settle for a certain percentage gain or what? Thanks - Sorry if iam pestering you!!!
hahaha u really think this will rise another 5p with in the next hour??? No way i think your getting a tad bit over excited now! lol
Hi firefighter, currently holding barcs, oml and FP. Currently cannot see many good buys, plus its week ending so i dnt usually buy unless fri the market crashes.
yeh your right bye bye 62p. Soo glad i didnt sell thanks for your advice qa. what you rekon close will be?
What are you holding if you do not mind me asking!! Have you got your eye on any Shares at the mo??!!
yeh of course its like another wage coming in so its all good. Id rather have all my money in the markets than the bank where its earning pennies. Yes it is well addictive but i enjoy the research side of it too, my knowledge especially over the last 2 months has increased, you will learn a lot. Knowledge in this game is power, and im pretty sure qatari would agree with this statement.
Ah nice one. Big respect to taking a loss like that then pulling through, that takes some integrity! I'm finding this stock market business very addictive, nothing beats making your usual monthly income in a day!
kidha pav im working now, i graduated in july studied computer engineering with business. Ive been playing stockmarket since the big crash where i was down 7.5k in rbs and barcs now im 2k up :-) Great time to invest still plenty of opportunities out there.
