"How to prepare for the great FTSE 100 crash of 2023"

What a ****, I know quite a few people do follow and do that he says !

I went £8k in

shocked this is not up 5% today :-(

well he has lost again by now if he has kept his short in.

Why he did not sell at 1.44 only he will know.

I was buying at 1.44 not shorting and I am up 55% in total, it's nice to be open.

He should have closed his short at 1.44 and gone long, to keep a short again is utter madness.

daft he did not sell his short if he had a 1.57 double up at 1.44 , it was always going to go back up so why not make the money

shorters have a small window , I now don't beleive it or it's pence money or a free demo account.

HE got lucky with a bank crash and this is going back up.

I toped up at 1.44 also.

strange man lol

its not ramping the Global SM lost billions the last 2 days RR recovered fast while most of my other are still red today.

every thing is down < i did say DON'T buy above 150p

Nov 21 anyone !

he opened a short at 1.39 then added at 1.43, 1.435 etc his losses must be massive on a leverage account. might be all his pot. If he was telling the truth, no one can be that stupid can they ?

some of this accounts can be 10x or 20x the loss it's leverage betting and costs you £1000's if you loose ie will wipe you out of every thing you own.

Alert we have another shorter !

buy today then lol

that's a tenner for that advice, Ta.

As always have a big portfolio

My Aviva are up 3.4% today and they pay me >8% div along the way. every thing else is red atm today.
I also think IAG is the next big jump, RR will be slow now, but thats fine as long as it does keep moving.

But there is 200% to be made in IAG that's more imo than RR from todays prices.

I gave billy f4ck all. Most on here seem dreamers, or gamblers sadly.

See you lot gamble, I don't.

I did have BP, thought it was stuck, but made 68% in total and also collected the divs on the way.
by big wins in the last 18 months were, BP, AML. Menzes, RR, CPi, MAB. BOO Hoo even.
I only have RR and cpi from those now.

My loss shares were PSN, that's it I think, but I did bin them off at a £2k loss.

I was going to sell EVERYTHING and put it all on RR, that would have been a gamble, and I would have been very well off now lol. But I am up £200k in 2 years at least so all good.

"only gamble what one can afford to lose" is a daft comment but I see it a lot here.

to add to that I am up 34% in IAG atm even with these pull backs.
Waiting to add more stock once this starts moving in the right direction again and will hold for 3 to 5 years and triple my money.

I am an investor not a gambler

I am staying in RR the OP sold his RR, I am up 58% I am invested in the company as it will be >£2

No gamble really.

People who say it's a gamble loose money and don't want to make money, I must be up £140k in 12 months
I meet many gamblers, loads of people short stocks on here also.

Value investing prioritizes paying low prices for investments relative to their intrinsic values.

you need to invest , not gamble

was 154.8 down to 152.5 a 2.3p drop from the highs of today.

but we are up 0.24% ok now up 0.5% on the day which is nice to see over red days. fast recovery as people buy in quick smart.

Have you seen the FTSE from 2.30 ! and the US500

Thats why I said on the other thread when every one keeps buying at £1.55 I said "NO THANKS"

Keep you ave low kids ;-)
