fyi I dont think they can legally not the pay the current dividend as it was declared and gone ex divi

The last buyback Rns didnt state "this concludes the buybacks" so I presume we've hit the price cap

I dont think we've even seen the crash yet to be honest

Yes theres nothing on the order book to suggest otherwise (one large sell order is sitting 100,000 @ 1300) but that its

It could pull back tomorrow but knowing my luck if I sold in auction today it will just go up again tomorrow. Seldom can you beat simply holding, especially given such momentum VS trading in and out

Im up over £30k, but its only just covering my other losses and Im still not selling

There's no better option than PLUS for me in the markets, so the only reason I'd sell would be to hold a cash position, as I do think we are going to crash again, hard

I have to agree with Sheltie. Strong resistance circa 1143. I will get sweaty to sell at 12 but I reckon 14 is beckoning

The main reason Im holding is that we all know there is a ridiculously good update coming very very soon ( 7th April)

Plus500 Ltd - Co-Founder Alon Gonen buys 554,473 shares at 815p to 859p, worth GBP4.6 million, on Friday last week and Tuesday. On Tuesday and Wednesday last week, Gonen along with other Plus500 directors and managers had bought GBP14 million in shares. Earlier in the month, Gonen had purchased GBP4.2 million in shares.

for me it was always the 955 resistance...once that is broken I dont have anything until circa 1143

Blackrock have increased their position as well....

Im thinking at least 12 now, although it could well hit 14+ with the current market volatility

Berenberg said the first quarter of 2020 will "likely easily be the best quarter for Plus500 since Q3 2018", when the European Securities and Markets Authority imposed restrictions on retail traders in Europe.

"It could, we think, be one of the company's best-ever quarters. Upgrading guidance so early in the year suggests Plus500 has earned a significant proportion of its prior revenue estimate in Q1."

We can add at least another $25m in revenue as well due the ASIC regulations not be changed (Liberum estimated $35m). All delayed due to COVID

Yes Trek I have DMA but typically all my funds already tied up with a "life reserve for these unknown times"

As you mention I wouldnt be surprise to hear the Special D is reintroduced in the results next month, but I think they will continue to buy even more stock back and announced even more buybacks as well...who knows!

Definitely pleased they have kept the overweight. The DOW will be interesting today given only a 0.95% rise but futures show +4%

Typically its friday and my concern is the constant news scaremongering over the weekend and its impact monday

Thats only my opinion and I hope im wrong! PS
