m...Glad I have you working as my PLUS spotter. Ta. I also have just bought TUI at 452.

T...yes, crazy isn't it that after months of people dying from Covid, numbers mounting all the time and more and more people having family or friends affected, that we almost take it for granted. We have come to live with it. Bad as it is, we are coming to terms with a new reality. At one level it just goes to show the strength of the human spirit. I don't want to be flippant but it's a case of "I'll go shopping or die trying"

V...wish I had bought GGP in the fractions of a penny. I would have if I had known about them. I found them through the NCYT chat room which I found through the NMC (now defunct) chat room. I think I found the NMC share by constantly watching the "HL winners and losers" tables. I must set aside more time to do research into the next possible big winner. By definition, I think it would have to be an AIM company to achieve multi-bagging.
I can almost hear T typing about how by playing the spikes and shakes, you can increase a holding in a secure, FTSE100 even, company by multi-bagger percentages. I believe it, I have done some of it. Actually they even sometimes pay dividends which AIM companies rarely do. I don't know where I am going with this missive, answers on a postcard please.

I have sold some CINE at 66 for a 42% profit and bought some ASC at 4588.
Good luck all today.

m....Didn't sell PLUS, got greedy, want above 1600

V...my first pass at my records suggests I first bought GGP on 13th April at 5.3p so about a 5 and a half bagger, still adding as my confidence (or blind denial and stupidity) grows. I even added twice yesterday at 26.7p and 27.7p. I find it very easy to buy in but very difficult to exit. I have only recently, these last two weeks, started trading some.
My similar figures for NCYT...first bought on about March 23rd at about 165p so about a 4.5 bagger. I hold probably twice as much value in NCYT as GGP. Approximate figures as info from long period zoomed graphs. Starting to wonder whether I should be moving towards many fewer holdings but there are pros and cons so on balance I will probably default to "little or no change".
Was so happy with myself for buying ASC on the downspike first thing that I got ****y and failed to capitalise on it by selling. Yet another note to self....You only realise a profit by selling.

m....help, are PLUS looking like selling yet?

Well the spikes, surges really, in the travel and leisure stocks first thing not a surprise this morning following the vaccine deployment news. I should have been more on the ball and sold IAG, CINE and JDW. It seems obvious now that those prices wouldn't be sustained but not obvious to me at the time. The "Covid" stocks took an equal and opposite hit and now as things are calming back down, lessons are being learnt here at SadAct towers. I had a limit sell just trigger on NCYT at 760 so I made 4.1% on today's purchase but still kicking myself for selling/buying back some of my leisure stocks. Note to self: put shin pads on christmas wish list.

Ha, managed to buy ASC at 4606 on that down spike, lucky. Bought NCYT at 730 on the drop, expecting to be lucky there too.
Didn't sell CCL, feel they would go higher, didn't sell PLUS on the 1590 spike because I'm stupid.
Good luck all.

O....that's promising for TTG, they are starting to look like the current dullard in my portfolio.
On AXS, I had noticed their 7% rise today, I think we missed out on a peachy share there. Good luck to them. Have been doing a bit more reading about them and I might just have a small punt but am scared to buy near their top, oh well, it's only a top until the next top I suppose.

R (and V)....There is actually no shame in buying back into a share for more than you received when selling.
It happens to me not infrequently. It looks like I might not get back into GGP with my "trading extras" below the price I received today 27.7p. I do make mistakes and sell too early sometimes but I try not to compound it by refusing to eat humble pie and buy back "expensively". I have extra supplies of humble pie to last through the lockdown.

m...I have complaints about IG too but there seem to be troubles with all the platforms...dont like IG tendency to ignore one though.
OOpps, look alive PLUS is on it's usual afternoon run up, might sell some more.

m...glad you are still looking out for me. Yes, they were ready, I should have sold more. Just checked the price I got and I managed to get more than the graph (candlesticks) says it achieved.....perhaps I should send some money back to IG?

R... I noticed the PLUS spike too, managed to sell half of mine at 1596.6
Sold todays GGP for nice 3.8% profit, all very well but want to buy them back now.
Making a profit lately is like catching fish in a barrel, relatively easy to make a profit on a fairly fast rising market. The trick seems to be to hang onto some for further gains but hold some liquid funds to buy "bargains" on a retrace.
I have IAG and CINE in lots of profit but I am reluctant to realise them, suppose I could sell a few......

Brexit? BREXIT? Please don't get me started...When I came back from France 4 weeks ago I brought a "considerable" amount of wine with me. Thinking of mixing with some antifreeze in a 10 gall oil drum (might even take the oil out first...undecided) and think the resulting hooch might keep me in a stupor until Dec 31st. What shall I call it? Well in honour of Johnson, I will call it operation moonshine.

My decision to sell CCL was partly due to them being down 7.4% in the states yesterday.

R...I bought CCL worse than you yesterday at 1340 and have just sold at 1381. Have bought back into GGP, the ones I sold yesterday but only made £99 on the deal. Sold NCYT extras I bought yesterday for a cool, quick 4.2% gain. Going to try that again today if possible. Trying to get back into ASC but not confident enough yet.

T....call me cynical but I think it won't take long for idiots to fake a phone based "Corvid negative" passport. I don't know what would work really but I agree that we must have something.

Good morning Brigadiers.

Slept in a bit this morning, it was only my second alarm that woke me. Also, still tired and seem to be feeling the cold....oh dear, these are all indicators that I am coming down with something so stay away from me.
Good luck today.

T...yes I was a bit lucky again today as I was away from the market for about 3 hours. Looks like I chose the right three hours.

V...sold some GGP at 27.125, felt bad doing it, I am a LTH!! Going to try and buy back though.
I got 4662 for my ASC but it was only a small tranche. Still got some above 4900! but will buy on weakness tomorrow I hope.

m...did you join the GGP party? It was just possible to buy at 25.5 this afternoon then even sell for 27p

sold more ASC. sold one third of my "trading" GGP for 11% profit

Sorry...I feel I have broken rule 3.7, 3.8 and 4.2 in subparagraph 17 headed "No Ramping". I'll drop and give you 5, I'm too old to give you ten.

m...I echo Ts congratulations on your friday deal.... I trade 33% on research, 33% on instinct and 33% on luck. Ha.
On the subject of GGP and normally I don't push shares but I am recommending them. There is a lot of news to come in December (today's good news was a surprise bonus). I know it is difficult to buy into a share when it is near it's all time high, 27p. They ae 26.39p to buy right now. Look at Vs post on friday for a list of the upcoming events. I will continue to add to my holding on weakness which today I put at below 25.5p. This is a share that I think is guaranteed to do very well in the medium term and often gives pleasant surprises short term. It is my 2nd biggest holding after NCYT. Although I am also bullish on NCYT (in fact I bought more this morning), I feel that GGP will return a quicker profit short term. As always DYOR, the GGP chat board is a great source albeit obviously strongly in favour.
