''simply becauses i pointed out''

precisely - do you think that the working of spread bets need to be pointed out to someone who had done them for 25 years with IG index now the IG Group - I am a IG shareholder with an average price of 418p after selling some this year

?

you addressed it to me - should have left out the ''lti''

''£10,000 a penny open ''

£10,000 a point open

''profits are exempt from CGT and Stamp Duty, and losses cannot be offset for tax purposes.''

was no need to have said that to me was there.

that is why I was able to close my £10,000 a penny open at under 24 at a great tax fee gain

gambling? - A SB is little different to purchasing shares - I opened SB's for a projected very short term basis - I never closed and SB at a loss as has been documented on here.

13.39p

Dt

'' i thought you sold some of you lloy holding?;;

strange thing to say - wouldn't have an average of 13.9p without sales.

I have made many share sales over the years and closed probably a few hundred spread bets

''when you sell some shares from a profitable position, you lock in gains on only those specific shares.''

that is your opinion and for possible tax purposes when making a sale.

My opinion is that I have yet to make a penny profit in Lloyds yet, but I do have an average price on remaking shares at 13.39p.

I could go into profit at any time I chose to do so.

''Darth, it is at the top of this page that the open is 89.06p''

that was the uncrossing trade at open - I am aware of a trade today as high as 89.14p for 2 shares

''i do know a chap that had £28000 in HBOS that went down to peanuts''

I bought Halifax which at one point was showing a great gain for me, then I became a HBOS shareholder because of the merger with Halifax and yes the value of my HBOS shares subsequently became peanuts converted into a few more Lloyds banking Group shares on the takeover. Those paper losses in HBOS (smaller investment than Lloyds Tsb) got carried onto my new position with LBG, but despite that I have managed to trade over the years taking in previous highs in 2015 and following years to now have an average price of 13.39p.

A share price of 89.4p I think would be an all time high share price

Some more at 254.5p from those bought at 200p on the 4th April.

What a great stock this has been - massive dividends on top

Not long ago that the ftse 250 was on about a 10 p/e

S and P 500 p/e is about 30 and Dow about 25

UK stocks have been vastly undervalued for many many years - a little bit of catch up

At this rate of increase I would soon be making another small sale - now sitting on a good paper profit after large (no brainer) purchases in the 60's

Now at 93p
