A few bones to pick over but not a recommendation for other to follow DYOR.
Normally trim 30% on a strong move up ( eg 20% spike on now news) or more and the 92/58 is an almost 60% rise so have held longer than usual.
The trajectory here, and for all shares tbh, is never in a straight line. SP travel alone today has been 91 to 87 and back to 92. Multi 000s of movement on a large £ value of committed funds not cspture so decided to focus on stage 2 (stage 1 being the snooker racking)
Mobico not traded much since the tranches purchased in Oct 58p ish.
Since mid Jan the SP has travelled 89p to 82p up to 91p the in a day 87 to 92... 21p not captured by just holding. Could have worked my average down so trying now.
Stage 2 aim is for a move towards a £0 average or below.
Trimming only 10% at 92 leaves a marker/ breadcrumb that can be rebought with funds released should SP retrace. If not still have plenty of skin in the game in this one (too much in 1 share to be honest)
OTB is currently a great illustration of a SP not going in a straight line. With OTB snooker racked in, trimmed and added on spike days with several breadcrumbs left in the 177 179 area and a sub 30p average cost of a nice core holding.
Expect to do the same here as gap can get filled.
Look at many shares and the moves over time. It is easy to see that holding a share without trying to improve the position does not give a decent return. A,SP can be the same 1 year on but the sum of uncaptured daily movement Iver that time may equal 100% of the share price. No one can capture all of the moves but this strategy has given great returns. With patience.
HTH
Have a great weekend.
