just picked up another 10 pips on the GA long .... definitely bed now

A lot of activity on the indices ftse falling off a cliff just picked up £44

Task i am chilled i am pulling your leg plus i am much more thick skinned , but yep i do have real money on it only £3k and a small S/B that i will trade . To be honest its hard to see where MBH is going as its in uncharted territory, up to now its only ever gone up ( I can see your 110 )but until it shows any signs of weakness ill just watch it for now

Yikes i wasn't aware that IGG was IG that slipped under my radar its worth watching to see if it will break out.

I just closed 37 pips on my AU long, gosh then went up quick i only put it on at just before 10 pm at least now i can sleep peacefully

Right........... now you are really trying to upset me ............putting up videos about Woodfords robbing tactics, as you know i am stuck in his equity income rubbish robbing fund and now suggesting that i short MBH ha ha............ I do have a very, very, large short running at the moment on BCN with a target of 2 p.

Ps viva the combustion engine !!! Plus i am long on Gbp Aud

Gs.. dont take any notice of Task keep your money in Shell its where the quarterly divis are lol Day trader you are Gs, next stop spread better .........

GS and Matt the B keep buying AV its where i get my annuity.

Task yes Demos irritating as you now have to pass the test to even get a demo. i guess i got the bulk of the questions right?

I am short on Morrison first target 1.90 second 1.85 third 1.80

Hi guys GS a magic roundabout that would be good well i hope the Shell / Av see- saw works well for you .

Task GS is the funndie go to guy for shares!! but technically its definitely in an uptrend for now.

If it can initially break 820 that would be a good start................. but then if it can get above 8.40 there isn't much stopping going onward and upwards to £10 plus.

Ps still checking out core spreads............ ive been locked out of my markets x demo its been disabled i suppose it had a one month time limit on it GL all

Yikes some nice trading going on with you guys.... Gs well done, spot on selling shell when you did and reinvesting it

. As always Task excellent trading on the D J keep it up

Mat the B again very brave and well done for holding your gold trade all this while . I only can hols gold share for long term and that is providing they are pumping out a divi .

I sold some shares DUKE first thing this morning , will buy back on pull backs but ive been mainly buying currencies on my transferwise card today. Thought it might be useful as a long tern hedge so added to my Swiss Chf and Euros ....

Just in case the dollar goes belly up any time . I know its the reserve currency but you can never be to careful.
good luck all

Backwoodsman not likely to see 114 on MTB now, might rest at 120.. if it comes down at all .. it shot up again today.
On my Phone I top sliced £20 off my spread bet ... Leaving the real money in the P/F to run..

Task............. Yikes look at you, what a Friday you have had, exceptional trading Task !

MattTheBrave........ Like Task not short or long on gold but gold was already bullish even worse could have been short on oil as oil was bearish then it shot up...... To be honest i was glad i was out all day today, sod law dictates you are usually wrong footed on out of the blue news events..

Hi GS ...your in Shell now it's one of my holdings and levis ....cracking divi and tradable on rare occasions.... Task well done for Dax profits ( your go to winner) ...IThanks I will check out that link ...
I am out all day but sold a bunch of MYI .after ex divi..on the bell this morning ....Picked up £ 270 profit plus £40 odd on the Divi ....nice start to the year ......HOT saw Star Wars last night so enjoyed it think I might go back and see it again but in 3D .

Gl all

Hi Backwoodsman yep just took a look at the MBH chart .. yes i think it could gap back down to 112 to 114 might be a good entry point if it does

Hi Task that's an impressive electric truck one of a kind .let's hope they make some more....

Stop start engines yep a really stupid idea plus puts wear on the starter motor and attached components...

Another stupid emissions burner are speed bumps as after you have slowed down to stradle them .you then have to accelerate to pull away dumping more emission into the atmosphere.. plus they put undue wear and tear on your suppension and springs...

Staffs I'll keep an eye on that one .

Still testing markets X and can't yet figure what there pip value is on FX ....IG mt4 Is easy it 10 p per 100 units on everything City index is 7p on most but Markets x I can't figure it yet . It's just not computing...

Thanks for congrats GS. BW. Task. Hot. and everybody else. It was a very tough year with shares.

Now with Brexit more or less on the back burner lets hope that this year is our year for the FTSE and the AIM

We could all do with a nice boost for a change . Good luck everybody in the comp and with your P/F 's

Happy New Year traders,cavers, lurkers and shirkers

Hi Task, good to see you back. dont worry too much you will only get your fair share of the 1,000,000 houses ..

The bitter drinking sounded fun.

I see you have gone for a rare earth share . It will be good old petrol and diesel machines on site digging them out Lol

GS .. Yep motorpoint now overpriced but i see Auto trader are doing really well.

Matt the brave...... Lloyds tipster I am hoping you will win the comp as i have more than i care for of Lloyd shares .
good divis though

Happy new year everybody..

Hello BWM £ 1.70 target price.. To be very honest i am not very good at fundamentals that is GS domain.

However the way i see it is that we are in a strong uptrend with good prospects .
I dont think this is share that is going to race ahead but slowly climb up with the usual ups and downs.

I just took the end of year bid price and added 50% to come up with that target. Who really knows?

If it stays in its technical uptrend i will try and trade. sell it on highs and buy back on pull backs . This can be achievable with a smaller investment as not paying purchase tax providing you have low trading costs.

You sold at 5 % profit nothing wrong with that a profit is a profit but if it becomes trade-able over the next year we can have the best of both worlds. I will be watching it fairly closely........... good luck

Hi Backwoodsman yep MBH it should be one to hold onto for a while.

This bit is taken from the web site………………… Michelmersh Brick Holdings PLC, the UK’s largest specialist brick manufacturer currently owns seven of the UK’s most recognised premium brands: Blockleys, Carlton, Charnwood, Freshfield Lane, Michelmersh, Floren and Hathern Terra Cotta. The company operates a fully integrated business combining the manufacture of clay bricks and pavers.

My thoughts are .......................Reasons for buying mainly the conservative party’s pledge to build 1,000,000 new homes over the next 5 years.
That will require a lot of bricks and pavers

Also After MBH took over Floren the Belgium manufacturer it gave Michelmersh more acreage of brick making capacity a further 120 acres. Net cash has doubled in the last year which is cutting its debt.
The Carlton plant replacement has been completed and now has automated Kiln unloading.
It appears that MBH have an almost monopoly on the brick front
A 3.5% dividend yield (with scrip available ) trades on the AIM so no purchase tax to pay ( tightly held shares ( what is there not to like as they say) ….
Hate prediction on prices but I would be happy if it got to £1.70 by the end of the year

( Task if you are looking in i managed to grab £27 of the Dax this morning and you cant beat that for dedication on Christmas eve )

Hot ok i am also hoping to see it over the holidays " may the force be with you " and a wee nip of malt whiskey

Gs again many thanks for your consistency on this board and running the comp, Happy Christmas

Levis keep popping in and merry Christmas

To all the trader - cavers have a cheerful Christmas get merry and eat loads of turkey .

Opti

Hi Gs .. yes you are right, didnt think about that too busy celebrating my win and eating and drinking lol .

ill be watching very closely .. It would be a pity if i had to post the GS certificate off to Levis . Lol

Hi guys Hot hope the film was good..... dont tell me i want to go and see it my self ...

Whats all this about adding in divis to the comp.. I dont care what you do next year because it doesn't change the fact that i have won two years on the trot lol

GS put me down for MBH please this coming year and thanks for running and organising the competition.

Also thanks for sending me the Golden Shares winners certificate for the second year running . I like the real gold leaf thread that you have put on it this year alongside the gold sovereigns embossed into the parchment .

Its already hanging up in pride place above my computer screens .... Happy Christmas all

Hello GS yes you are right about the short term negativity and its unjustified.

The shorting funds are like sheep and just herd together to bring pain to this company..

If the film industry can put out a continual stream of large audience films, then cine-world will thrive.
On the other hand if its a couple of yeas of mushy rubbish then it will struggle...

You and Hot are similar in the fact that you are both wed to screen shares but may you both prosper and have success.

Hi Gs imm still thinking about comp ..... I see cineworld have been aquiring again and set to be the biggest cinema chain in the world ( some big debts now to maintain ... Is it a masterstroke or a gamble to far. Time will tell. Good luck with it ...Task were you long or short on Staff.? ..I see they took a beating yesterday.. Gl all
