T....yes I remember that EZJ event. Thing is with all the algorithms and program trading going on, any small unexpected uptick in a share price can suddendly be multiplied as other algorithms cascade into play. Sometime later of course, us poor private investors start to react. I suppose I am talking about a mathematical version of FOMO.
I know you would approve of discipline in share trading, it certainly helps me. I'm not talking about 6 of the best if targets aren't achieved, ha, but for me, regularly achieving or exceeding a target has really helped me focus. For you it is amassing more shares over time, for me, it is banking a certain amount every single week.Personally, I think a target without a time frame (or indeed, too long a time frame) loses something.
Yes, I have done well this year but have benefitted from more than my share of luck. Going into the AIM pharma stocks, NCYT, AVCT and SNG was a no brainer for me as the virus problem got worse. Still feeling a little guilt over benefitting from others sadness. Am not holding any CCL at the moment but have GRG, JDW, SAGA, IAG, TUI and CINE and ASC as my recovery shares.
