I have just come back from 4 days in Spain and going to Italy in April ,tenefire in may and will book something for October
My friend flew out to tenefire today
Everyone I work with all are going away over Easter
Holidays prices are so low at the moment ( and have been since covid ) there so cheap it's impossible not to keep booking up
One guy I work with has European holidays booked up for this year ( the same guy who flew to Tenerife today )
I know you can't always believe the volume sold and volume bought figures ,as it's a algorithm guess on the price at that transaction time
But noticed every day this week ,according to the daily stats ,there has been more buys than sells
Yet it's dropped daily
Strange
Selling at a loss is not good
So imo this is a hold for me
I was about 2k up
Now 2k down
I will buy more once this crap with Putin is more clear ,at the moment anything could happen and this share could hang around here or drop further
But like what others say
In 2 years time this could be double what it is today
And if I've been nukked by Putin before then Ill be dead and not worried about my shares here or with lloyds and Barclays and IAG
You say Lloyds was well over sold
I thought that maybe was the case
Yet yesterday's figures on lse showed 50 percent more buys than sells ,which I found odd giving the 10 percent drop
I know the buys and sells are a guess made by a pc on the price at the time but still 50 percent more buys than sells made me ponder
So if a market cap is £10
And there is 10 shares in issue
Each share is worth £1
If company buys back 2 shares
The £10 market cap is then divided by 8
Which is £1,25
So can someone plz explain what's so bad about lloys buying back shares ?
Wonder how many inexperienced folk on here got caught up in Friday's excitement and listened to the rampers , and never listened to the level headed experienced guys who could tell a mile off Fridays rocket was a pump
Now many folk will be sat on a 20 percent loss
A few people on here did try and warn of the pump but we're Slateted ,
But hopefully some people will have learned something from the last few days and not make the same mistake again in the future ,just remember guys ,
Very very few people make money on dealing in aim shares ,I've been trading years and have made plenty money on companies listedn in the FTSE 100 ,but lost more money than I've made in AIM ,
Ukog is one of the few Aim shares I actually made money on buying at 0.8 and selling at 4p just prior to it being pumped to 9p after the Gatwick qusher was in all the papers
If you wanna double or trebble your money over the next few years ,I'd recommend looking into airline stocks
And I hope ukog goes rise some more soon so no newbies are sat on losses from Fridays shenanigans
It's very dis heartening to see your investment rise one day by say 500 quid and the next day drop by 400 quid or even 600 quid for example
But imo tui and iag ( the 2 airlines I'm invested in ) are I believe mid term holds
Tui is not gonna get £5 by Easter
But it could be by Easter 2023
If I can double my money here and in IAG in the next year or 2
Well I'm certainly not gonna complain about that
I just need to stop checking share price 5 times a day and check it weekly or even monthly

You ask who knows ?
I do
The drop here and across FTSE was caused by US inflation news
Most share prices have plummeted today when US market opened over inflation worries
Jet 2
IAG
JUST EAT
BIT COIN
ETHERUM
TUI
LLOYDS
XTR
And many other shares I follow ALL nose dived just after 1pm

Didn't mean to or didn't think I sounded negative at all
My last post was a reply to someone mentioning we have had no news yet on a upward trend
And like I've seen 100s of times before
It wouldn't surprise me if this upward trend continued up till a good RNS ,then we get a spike ,then over next few months it slowly drifts back down to 5p
If you follow shares you to MUST have seen this happen many a time
My other post was simply stating for folk not to get carried away after reading 10 bagger possible defo 5
I was staring this has already 7 bagged in a year
Like I have already said I have a couple of grand in here off years ago that I I paid 40p a share
And back then everyone on this board was taking 80p 1 pound 2 pound 3 pound ,yet 5 years later it was 1p
Colin bird has over promised and under delivered many a time and I hope for my self and all other xtr holders that this makes substantial gains from here but won't want any newbies or niave to think bagging from here is guarenteed
I've have some xtr shares many years which I think we're bought at about 40p in my normal share dealing account ,which I kinda wrote off and put them in bottom draw and forgot about them
Last year I bought a few grands worth for 7p in my ISA account
Obviously I would love this to get to 40p or even 20p .but being realistic only 2 years ago ( Feb 2020 this share price was 0.75p ( 3 quarters of a penny )
And since then it's 10 bagged ,
Maybe the next few months new is now priced in ??
I've followed these boards for about 8 years on many different shares ,and when even posts habe mentioned easy 5 bagger from here ,this will double by end of month , 45 p is very possible by summer ,bla bla bla I've not once ,not once seen the share price go anywhere near prices mentioned by posters ,not once , if even 12 pence here was guaranteed, investors and millionaires would be piling in ,to double there money In a month or 2 , all of the dragon's den people wouldn't bother sitting in there chairs listening to inventors wanting there money if they could easily double it here ,
I have read many times before 97 percent of private investors who dabble with aim shares loose money , inckuuding me
I've always made money on FTSE 100 shares ,but overall I'm down on aim shares ,I wonder how many people who are here are down or up since investing in aim shares
People often announce their gains but keep their loses quiet
Anyway I hope like everyone here this does go a lot higher than current prices ,but I will happily drink my own **** in celebration if this gets to 30p this year.
At around 14:15 today ( Tuesday ) Lloyds ,Barclays hsbc ,tui and a few others I watch / have money in all dropped quickly back to around the days start then 45 mins later all rose quickly back up
What was the reason for this ?

I bought £10k worth on 23rd December watched a steady rise but then the last week it's drifted as has most other stocks
Sold them all this morning for £10,300
If I'd 2 weeks ago could have banked 800 quid profit but hey ho
300 is better then nothing or sat on a loss
Also sold my Lloyds shares on Friday
Bought £10k worth end of November and sold Friday for _£11200 after a week of daily drops
Again if I sold a week earlier could have made 2k profit instead of £ 1200
I will buy back £10k worth in both Lloyds and tui when I try and guess the bottom before the next steady rise
Can't complain if 1500 quid profit in 2 months
Plan on giving that back to tui for a nice holiday
