'...GG the stop was set higher than the average buy. Doh...'
You see, Trek Baloney, there is no such thing as a 'stop' order to set a share sale at a pre-determined higher price. Not in ii, not in HL, not in any UK retail investment brokerage. Stop orders are designed to kick in to limit losses. Now, you could place a 'limit' order to lock in a profit on sale if a share hits a certain price. Which you'd know, if you actually traded shares. It's a way for people to protect their capitAl.
'...stupid and unworkable . can you imagine in the future, a 69 year old man asking his 70 year old mate, to purchase some ***s for him - it is laughable....'
I hadn't given this aspect much thought until I saw this, but an adult smoker will, for the rest of their life, have to produce some sort of ID as proof of age, until the day they die, when they purchase any tobacco product.
'...Why are Peel Hunt not buying up 25,000 shares per day at this price? Instead we get a pitiful 3,750.!!...'
Are you being serious ? They don't have the cash, is why. Take a look at a real, funded buyback like BATS. The cash is there for the brokers to buy as they see fit. Within the rules, of course. But that's the difference between a well-funded company and a company that's living hand to mouth, cash-wise.
Trek Baloney, I guess you were too busy today to answer this, so I'll just post it here for you, you know, for when you can spare the time to share your genius :
'...I bought PHNX, just a few a 479 average and posted a stop. ..'
'...when I looked all my PHNX shares had been sold and I nearly made £400!..'
Trek Baloney, you truly are an investing genius ! You hit your stop loss, the shares got sold, and yet you still made money ? C'mon, share your secret. How'd you do it ?
Perfectly happy.
I'm just here for the lols.
Hoggshot, ok, fair enough. notrex knows his moronic audience better than I.
Oh god, he's 'one of those'. Feels the need to explain his humorous reference to those he sees as too stupid to get his literary intellect. 🙄
'...It’s served me ok on DEC has it not GG? Perhaps folk should have a peak at your posting history and see how you spend most of you life in a boiler room bashing one stock...'
That's right, Trek Baloney, I've been calling DEC a fraud for over a year, in that time it's share price had more than halved and the dividend has been cut by 66%.
I wish Tek Baloney would look up the difference between capitol and capital. For such a free market wheeler-dealer, you'd think he'd get that right instinctively. Oh well. Sloppy is as sloppy does.

Strange investing strategy, too, from Trek Baloney, selling an 11% yielding share for an unproven newcomer with zero dividend, and zero dividend potential for the foreseeable future. I guess he's relying on his much vaunted luck to come good for him. Looks to be on a loser at the moment though.
'...“ I sold some yesterday. Only because I found TRR and needed some funds to build a position there. Still got majority in here though.‘...'
'...But also took a load out at around 5:56 To buy TRR as posted before...'
Trek Baloney, you can't even get your story straight in the same post. Did you sell 'some' or did you sell 'a load' ? Yeah, it's fascinating, reading your BS over time, lol.
In 2023 alone, Barclays issued 'analysis' for Phoenix on 14/02, 07/09, and 29/09. So, it's a timeframe of their choosing, lol.
On the subject of broker recommendations, I think you need to ask yourself one important question : Is this 'target' price what they anticipate it to be on Monday, at the end of August, at the beginning of December, or a year from the recommendation issue date ? Unless you can answer that question, the recommendation is meaningless.
'...Timing is everything lol! Got this one on pretty much on the nose with the last 5 trades!...'
REALLY ? Trek Baloney, I took a look at your posts pre- and post- ex-dividend date. I think you're mis-remembering your recent history. Or you're just a liar.
'...the crap they are sitting on if they need to mark to market is horrific...'
I don't think you understand what you're talking about, Porch. Phoenix has to 'mark to market' its' assets and liabilities every day, IT'S THE LAW. LOL. So, it's all out there, nothing hidden, even the 'horrific' et al.
Andy144. I called DEC out as a fraud over a year ago, when the share price was double what it is today, and the dividend was 3 times what it is now. Oh, wait, no point replying to you, you've filtered me, although you seem to know what I post. Or. Maybe you're just a liar ?
Trek Baloney - '...Also had a cracking run on PHNX, bagging the divi selling down and winning on the last 4 trades ready to sell again now! Posted them over there...'
Surprised you see bagging the Phoenix circa 27p divi as a 'win' when you could have sold Phnx at any time in the fortnight or so (circa 540 - 550p) leading up to ex-divi date then bought back any time in the week or so since for a 50p+ discount (circa 480p - 508p)on the pre-div share price.
Maybe you're not the genius you credit yourself with being ?
