Yes, good point Gs.

Hello Hot good to hear from you . Yes back from holls now no more beach trading for a while! We are not OAP as I dont consider 65 to be old !! We are seniors. Which we should embrace . With that comes some wisdom , some aches and pains . More time to do what you want to do. A regular 4 weekly pension that is most welcome but has been hard earned. I got in 45 years worth of contributions. You will be on the bigger newer amout than me. I missed it by one day (sods law) . One of the things I notice is now when I pass a mirror I see my dad looking back.. lol I wish Mrs Hot all the best . Good luck with the Dow short ... I will take a look at that my self. . Gs bus pass haven't got one . Prefer my car . Gl all

Oil long closed 22 points

Looks like BLND went ex divi yesterday. It's a quarterly divi..... Anyway it still looks cheap to me and a big discount to NAV ....I've took a small September Contract on IG .I am hoping it will be heading back to 6.50 by then. Gl all

Hi Gs closed gbp eur short for 15 points still in the rest of them. Opened US crude long earlier this morning. ...Have a gold long order in awaiting to trigger if it drops a bit more... NG now needs a kick up the backside to push north. BLND yes had my eye on it also will it go sub 6. If so I will be in..... .Did you get my email with the holiday photos? Where is Hot? Do us a post Hot if you can!

Latest trades . Short on GPB AUD.............. Short on GBP EUR........... long on SBRY........... and long on NG . GL all Hope all is ok with you HOT

Beach Trader I like that if only! !! But yes living the dream albeit temporary. No red braces but I do have a mask and snorkel I've traded now in Gran Canarie, Majoca and Slovakia. ... GL all

35 ¤ CentIgrade at 4.30 in the afternoon in beautiful Majoca Sold. DFS whilst on the beach (a first for me ) any way made £20 it will cover a decent bottle of Cava tonight . Ariel A thanks for updating. Hot is taking some time out . I think Mrs Hot isn't to great at the moment? . Gl all

Hi all I am away in sunny Majorca. Keep the posts coming and i will be checking in from time to time. Gl all

Sorry for late response ....... been a wierd day but many thanks for your fund thoughts and quite a few for me to ponder over. I will be researching them all. Thanks for listing them Also very intersting thoughts from you both about asset managers . You pair are the fund experts! !!.

Serious question re Mrs Opti's sipp........... Gs......... All if you were buying a fund now or in the next couple of weeks what would you buy? Answers on a postcard ?

Who has been looking in my window, how did you know i had a monkey picking my shares?

thanks for the updates GS .................... Picked up 8 points on the Nasdaq. the sunshine is calling................ GL all

I am out AUD USD for 15 points ............. came out about 7.25 this morning. GL all

GS No currently not in BLND............... wished I had held on after Brexit ! AUD USD yes concur bearish on the 4 hr MACD but bullish on the daily MACD. but with some divergence. The trend line is bullish still. I have a long term target of about 7680 ish on the 161.8 fibo. I just noted the AUS were on a bank holiday yesterday so probable thin trading. Could really move tonight! but Yes it could go either way as open spaces both bullish and bearish. USA FOMC fundie tomorrow night will really affect it ............. would like to be out with some profits by then. GL all

Bought into Custodian Reit CREI............. 5.53 yield brilliant for my real income P/F slight premium to NAV but with that dividend not complaining.............. Went long after the drop of Telecom plus this morning, made 17 points only in for seconds but happy days. AUD/USD long jumping about a bit no good so far. Should have had a lower limit target sell on it as it flew in the night then dropped back................ possible head and shoulders forming on the hour . it might consolidate a bit and then hopefully go!! GL all

Long on AUD USD

Hi all had some friends over for AUS so missed out on most of election ho haa................ Just waiting for the market to settle down a bit before entering. Hot just seen PURP is taking a dive down 32 points so far today........ Dam! dam! was waiting for election results before i bought my euros for upcoming holiday and hoping GBP EUR would go up but its gone down and doesn't look very promising at all............ sods law GL all

Good idea Gs ..... I might have a malt tonight. Closed out my Crude short earlier for 5 points
