Roundtable Discussion; The Future of Mineral Sands. Watch the video here.
Tax applies to CFD profits (76% lose), losses are unlimited short, losses long are what you invest, be aware of the spread between buying and selling, to get into profit you need to move further in your direction than from 0, leverage and fee for holding open position with leverage, missed anything guys?
Which study was that the one on all under 50s?
CP - when you sell (short) your potential losses are uncapped, when you invest (long) you can only lose what you spend on shares and your gains are uncapped. With shorting you have to borrow the share from 212 to sell, with a promise to buy it back later, the spread they charge is their margin, difference between buy and sell price (if you sell then buy back instantly you make a loss due to the spread), they also charge you a rental fee for keeping that position open overnight and on.
Exactly the same PrayFor, going to set my alarm for 9am from now on, miss the first 30 mins madness and then some :)
Sadly what the share buying public believe is what happens tot he share price, 'conspiracy' or otherwise.
In answer to your question, at the top of the share discussion list there's a 'filters' button, type a name such as toby84 in there, click filter and poof green bars everywhere.
Considering the epidemic was over in May I keep hoping to wake up and realise this was all a dream, Boris admits the data is dodgy and on we go with the real issues we have to deal with. At this rate there will be no sick people and we will still be locked up until next summer vaccine or no.
Site is trash, but I was told only Cornwall is in Teir 1, the absolute clown show continues, I just hope the country comes to some sense before Cine goes bust in May or some such.
Buying since 90 down at 60 where it held for a bit, then 40, 30, 20 and even 16. managed to get my average down to 50p. Not sure I can wait for the 'big' rise, the more this government destroy our way of life the more worried I get and finally being in the black but only just, on days like today when it slips back my resolve is tested.
Is it on profits? I believed the form to be to allow a reduction from 30% to 15% dividend tax as the UK and US have an agreement? So I only pay 15% tax on my dividends rather than the usual foreign charge of 30%....
Forms are quick and usually automatic when trying to buy a us equity on a platform, no fees with 212 that I'm aware of, obviously currency is a risk and makes it slightly more volatile overall.
Yep managed to squeak a little myself Union, sold some at 50 recently, grabbed back at 42 and let go at 45, slowly slowly and all that but the pattern was fairly obvious. Rinse and repeat maybe :)
I find the Yahoo finance and my tracking site (sharesight) always have slightly different prices to 212 at the end of the day when I'm having a tally up. I put it down to seeing either the buy or sell price rather than the market or midpoint price, in all it hasn't seemed to be an issue or anything untoward, for me at least.
You borrow a share from a company to sell and promise to buy it back later hopefully at a lower price to hand back to them. A contract for difference CFD is one of the ways this is done, spread betting (I believe) is another, or is at least a way to profit from a falling share price. CFD I think have tax implications SB does not in the UK.
When selling a share through a CFD you should pay attention to the buy and sell price, there will be a gap or spread, the wider this is the more the share has to move in your direction before you even turn a profit, you not only need the share direction to be right, but you also need to beat the spread, these positions can be leveraged, multiplying your profit or your loss.
When buying shares the loss is limited to the amount of money you invest, when selling them the price increase is potentially unlimited and there may not be anyone around to buy from when you need to pay it back, this can result in your position closing. Also were a company to get bought out for a much higher price than where you sold from any stop losses you set would I assume be meaningless and you could be on the hook for thousands to your broker.
This is just my understanding, do your own research, this is not advice.
That's awful news for anyone that values privacy, freedom and common sense.
The vaccine (while I welcome the share price rise) needs to be stored at -80 and is extremely specialist, the news was likely leaked to a) give them a share price bump and pre orders for a vaccine that will largely be useless due to the impracticality of it and b) to give Biden credit (or rather not Trump) while the election remains undecided.
For a trip to the cinema you need a test that doesn't work, an app tracking where you are, an untested vaccine that's not fully effective, for an illness that hasn't raised the overall mortality needle this year nor changed the average age of death. Hospitals are largely empty, peaks were passed before both lockdowns, this is not disputed this is fact. The virus whilst nasty to some has seemingly cured the flu this year, and on the subject of hospitals why haven't they increased capacity meaningfully in the 7 months we have been under "3 weeks" restrictions!?
I'm sorry but the world has gone stark raving bonkers.
For the money HL charge the service level I'm hearing is awful!
A friend didn't get his Tesla stock split for days and couldn't sell at the top.
Only a small LISA there but for £12.50 a trade I expect better than this.
I wonder if it was more central then, I've had 212 unable to show me prices and charts before when similarly big moves have happened, the website just comes up with spinning wheels all over. Today I got to watch 10% of CINE's price drip away and I was effectively locked out. Luckily it came back, I mean, I wasn't committed to sell at 45 but it is a scary situation to be in.
Were both absolute rubbish today!
212 unusable for 45 mins once US came online and these forums down for hours, pretty poor on both counts!
Any other platforms having issues / performing well?
Luckily I wasn't planning on selling today but I might be moving...
Looking across my holdings everything just jumped, CINE as always seems to exaggerate any moves though.
Same as it was in March! Peak passed before lockdown allowing for lag time between infection and death - we kicked the can along to allow the NHS time to prepare and they did nothing. Absolute farce, Boris is a bafoon. Either that or he really is evil, I'm clinging to incompetence, laziness and cowardice as a theory but barely.
iTraderx3m - My Friend tried to sell at open recently and ended up selling for 16.something pence, he was planning to buy more but panicked and did the opposite, T212 gave a terrible price for those orders submitted before open, I bought more on open and nearly made 100% in a few hours to lower my average. Pays your money takes your change.
I'm looking forward to spending another 2 billion of tax payers money and our children's future on a rushed vaccine that is for an illness you have to use a test (which at 45 cycles would detect unobtanium if you wanted it to) to let you know you have it, where do I sign up?!
If nothing else it might let Boris claim victory against nature (which had already decided what is was going to do regardless) and end this lunacy. The only question then is do we go back to normal or is it all a globalist plot to reset the banking system, force drugs and tracking on the unwilling? Sooner the vaccine is available the sooner we find out I guess, so that's good, the suspense is killing me.
One thing you can say about this movie is there's a lot of twists and turns, plenty of clowns in charge and few know how it'll end.
