That's meant to be a smiling emoji btw.
lse2000: haha, hope you are right. I can cash in then but I won't be holding my breath, I'm sure you'll understand my sceptism 😊
FTSE12: Thanks, good advice. I had cash in my trading account for this purpose but I used it to buy more CPI shares!! Not to worry, there are often opportunities and I have dodged a bullet or two in the recent past as a result #brightside
WorldGoRound..seriously, hard to believe you don't know!!,
Scully12345: oh FFS!!!!!!!!
HeresHopin: especially considering its incongruous, oxymoronic nature!
HeresHopin: Is there any real need to use such vulgar and course language??? lol
FTSE12: Well it is a sound strategy when it works. I’ve bought a number of shares in the last six months and hardly managed to sell any so I’m not sure if I am cut out for day trading lol The positive is that they are all showing double digit gains…just…but I need to learn quickly and act even quicker!! Yeah I bought my last tranche at £1.38 so not willing to exit just yet. Had no money left and was on holidays when it went down to £1.20 but that was a gift of a SP to people.
FTSE12: No probs lol Can you clarify, are you saying that you would buy at 140p??? and sell at 148p??? because it's currently at 148p!! (or is this a short-term buying and selling range)?
You are quite correct about the current trading range and fair enough, £2 is currently unrealistic but I can't believe that there is no chance for it won't get to the 160 / 170p mark in the next few months. Also I would like to hold on to a tranche for the longer term in case there is a recovery (although buying and selling on the peaks and troughs does look more appealing atm).
FTSE12 - Well I'm a relative novice so I'm learning and that is good advice you give. For example, I should have taken some profit on Capita when it went beyond 170p a few months back..but I didn't!! That would have netted a very nice profit but all this talk about 200p by year end stopped me from doing so. I bought another trance at a lower price and I will sell these once (or if) the SP hits 160p or I haven't learned from my earlier mistake!
Yes, FTSE12, I was only being pedantic and cheeky since you somewhat obliquely used the word "investment" with Capita but of course, it's clear from your post and anyone who day trades would never be considered as investing. You sound like someone who know what you are doing and I hope your trading account balance reflects this!
Couldn't agree more FTSE12 regarding brokers and Capita. It will remain a recovery share for the foreseeable. I do hope it eventually becomes a growth share again but the most recent crash in August was very sobering!! How large btw?? and day trading cannot be classified as investing!! lol
Yeah volcano on the 18th August so no impact on today's SP. I would love to see some of the modelling and analysis tools these brokers use and the fees that they garner...I suppose they must get some stuff right, they just seem to react and readjust to whatever the SP does!
Velo: you might be right, time will tell. So many people here voice their vociferous opinions and end up at complete odds with what actually happens. This share has made somewhat of a recovery, I would prefer slow and steady growth underpinned by fundamentals. In truth, nobody knows what will happen to this share but 150, while looking unlikely this year, is not completely out of the question.
Julian38: A lot of positive sentiment on PHTM but I expected a bit more of a bounce. I got in at 113p so trying to figure out a possible exit but will have to go to 150p for me. The dividend is attractive, may tempt me to hold on here!
