Grief, my £250 test pushed the price up to 5.4p (unless there was another bigger trade which is quite likely?).

Hell fire, I can see why I had problems on ASX this last month.
You can only do limit bids on ASX so you name your price, and either the amount to use or the number of shares.
Just bought TLOU on the FTSE , tried to buy at 5.28p against the 5.3p shown - no deal! ASX fashion!
Switch to Get Quote , put in the amount to spend and got a quote of 5.3p , surprise, surprise, not!
Accepted the quote.
Contract note shows price was 5.3001p - so, I wonder, was I being rejected on ASX because of that 4th decimal place?

Found the boots you supplied a link for , here .... good price afaik .... from MCN?

At 1am I tried a FTSE/TLOU buy and commission was still £8 .
Just tried another dummy trade and it now shows £5. 60 free shares per trade cannot be bad for a whole month :O)

And the sell was smallest trade.
Spread remains unaltered on ADVFN 9.1C - 9.2C but IG are showing 9.1c - 9.4c
Trades were all at 9.2c barring the first buy of the night which was 9.3c

This is ridiculous, 8 buys totalling 107k shares don't move the spread, and the final sell of 1755 shares results in the spread changing to 9.2c - 9.5c on ADVFN! And now there is another buy, @9.2c , return spread to 9.1c - 9.2c.
ADVFN looks very suspect - all 10 trades are timed at 3:45:48 ? Think I'll look elsewhere.

Tlou Energy is good value based on assets compared to the AU Oil and Gas industry average.

are excluded - originally are not included!

Sorted for the morning - bike legal for the road at midnight.
Since yesterday blooming insurance rose from 126 to 127, and finally 133!
Inflation ar record levels? All are Hastings Direct!

My garage runs training courses and I told him about the summons from a car park.
Same down here - training schools need written permission to use car parks - insurance claims behind that - but individuals are not excluded. Good advice from Scotty earlier - he said I'd never believe how many beginners drop their bikes!

I'll thinkof members when I'm doing a figure of eight :O)

U-turns , dropped two bikes doing that!
The first was a Honda Benley and the handle bars were on full lock - would you believe I could not lift my leg off the footrest to put my foot down!
And then the school bus drove by - I was 16 or 17.

The other time I forgot to turn the petrol on (first day of owning my RF900) and it was spluttering. Turned to get some light on the bike (it was dark and I was not familiar with everything) on an adverse camber. Engine cut out , put my leg down on the sloping camber in the wet , seat height was 31 inches, foot slipped and it landed on top of me!
Stationary both times. Scratched the pristine fairing on the RF900 - really annoyed - and they are so slippery and heavy on an adverse camber too! Better get out and see how my machine looks, cheers.

Never dropped the Triumph - let's hope there isn't a first time!

Gee, I thought you forgot I was in England and the second link was to ordinary footwear!
Blooming amazing choice and so cheap?
I have been appalled at how many riders are riding without ankle protection in trainers ..... now I can see they may not be!

Thanks, Scotty.

Cheers Scotty, going to take Poppy out and call in to the garage. I will hopefully be able to roll it without a rusty chain and seized bearings and get an idea if my left leg is up to it. Pushing down with the foot was strong even in hospital, so changing down will be simple. Initially I could not move my toes - it was like the foot did not belong to me. But that was in the past, I hope there is enough strength in the limited upwards direction to change up! Otherwise I'll be like the local Ferrari drivers here, never get into 3rd or higher :O( , prats!

August 1st tomorrow, so a good time to get it road legal. Full months use of road tax (would you believe £91 pa, my golf was free, and the Berlingo is £20! ) Guess the emissions are what does it?

Hey ho!

To keep on topic I might sell some SXX shares to buy a pair :O)
I am recovering from equine foot (toes point down and heel only just reaches the floor when I stand) so getting into my old boots with two huge cuts down the calf is going to be impossible and risks injury to the cuts.

I am trying to find out if there is a boot which makes it easy to put the foot in, and then zips up around the leg?

Thought Scotty might be interested in this , I thought I was being reckless putting a bike on the road , but maybe not?

Just did a dummy trade and IG would have charged me the full £8 for it , my 16th or more trade in a month?
Bit of a joke that I don't get frequent trader allowance until August (tomorrow) of £5.
A whole month at a £5 on the FTSE? With poor exchange rates I am unlikely to put new capital in to trade on ASX, but my $10 (£5.50 ish ) commission on ASX will be more than £5 on the FTSE from tomorrow ....

It is working out well, I have achieved frequent trader status at about £5.50 on ASX, to get a reduction from £8 to £5 here -Martin Lewis would be proud of that I reckon?

To close my ISA is £50 otherwise I'd move it to IG. But at fixed £5.95 per trade I was happy.
Never expected to return to trading while the missus was alive , too time consuming , but Poppy does not mind!

Talking of Poppy, her sardine breakfast is overdue!

With all my focus on ASX, it looks as if AIM is where the recovery is most likely first.
It is now obvious why, yesterday there were two trades on ASX, my sell @ 9.2c and a buy @ 9.6c from someone else.
I doubt the Australians are aware of TLOU or Botswana requiring electricity.

Everything looks intact datewise.

I really thought we were about to turn the corner yesterday and today.
CBA price got close to my early target of $83 which I feel will be beaten comfortably once the dividend is declared.
So I have u-turned and sold a thirtd of TOU @ 9.2c and bought CBA at $83.07.
I'll collect the dividend , usually Aug 7th or thereabouts, and reinvest that at the very least in TOU .
Depending on prices after ex-divi date, I might cash CBA.
I'm enjoying trading, I have merely sat on or topped up my holdings for several years, and made unrealised losses.
I was doing ok , £400 up, but am down a little bit currently (both shares a bit droopy) .... nothing viagra won't fix later tonight.

Bit of a nightmare on ASX , ADVFN feed is only now showing 83.07 , whilst IG , which is more up to date it seems, are back at 82.8 - not a warm feeling as I say.
Better check if CBA have announced a reduced or cancelled dividend I guess!

I imagine Bitcoin will be profitable during this spell.
Not for me though the very thought of investing there sends shivers up or down my spine.

BTS , I have always gone to bed late - ASX is open from 1am to 7am - so if I waken in the night I have at look to see if there is an opportunity to make a profit. I have been very lucky with the pound weakening so much - my TOU shares started of cheaper than TLOU but must be worth a lot more if I settle in GBP!
Like music it is all in the timing or it could be a dog's dinner.
If the pound recovers, there is a chance of profiteering back to ASX.
TLOU/TOU must be one of the best shares imho - so flexible!

So funny, the window cleaner came yesterday and said he'd used the door bell (which definitely never rung) after tapping the window.

Today, I was just going out with Poppy and thought I'd check the postbox outside. Opened the front door and remembered the bell!
Thought I'd test it, and pressed it myself! Bloody hell! Poppy flew out the door and up the drive barking like mad!
Then I twigged that she would not know how the bell works but there is always someone out there - very amusing!

IG are superb , I now only own TOU and my trading history shows my TOU holding correctly , but the aritmetic shows I still owned 118 CBA shares!
Spent all morning trying to find my error on Excel workbook.
I am able to say I have spent ALL my deposits on TLOU so I modified the outlay on my open position.
Boy is it diving on the AUD/GBP revaluations! But I have made a fixed AUD profit and a variable one in sterling :O)

Online chat was answered in seconds - showed me if their agent was typing - perfect!
It took one question and one answer - I could see 4 partial fills of my sale of 118 i.e. 60 56 and two x 1 - on full history screen
I can also see my purchase of 34,800 TOU which are flagged Settled=N!
Their Trading download excludes unsettled sells (no money) but unsettled buys are included.
I thought I'd found a bug :O) . But why didn't I ask first thing?
