Sold OCDO at 1721, had my expected ride through 1700 thought I would take the profit. These are dizzy hifh prices for OCDO. T line, 10 min chart said hold but I pressed the button.

V: I hope you are in on this latest MCRO rally, I'm not so I am kicking myself.

O: well GGP going well now, but I am a long term holder for the big profit. Naively thought the news the other day would give GGP a big boost but I reconded without profit takers, still it has come back and I have top sliced this morning and hope to buy back that slice cheaper later. Ha.
Sng is scaring me but hey, thats the nature of AIM.

Sold CCL at 1016

T line indicated buy back into CCL at 903, didn't believe it!! but finally bought at 934 but stupidly didn't sell at 995

V: I expect you are watching MCRO, there was quite a strong t line indication to buy at 8.30 when they were 444p. I didn't buy but started to regret it, now at 448p there is the indication again. Held my OCDO through the last dip, still convinced I will get the ride through 1700p this week (emotion speaking, note to self: never do it that way). Having sold CCL at 1211, I am interested to get back in but T line isn't interested yet, the trend is downwards for some time I think.

Thanks L: I have replied on your thread.

Good evening L, thanks as ever for your observations and hints. Sorry for slow response, I have been busy with other stuff. I trade in parcels between £10K and £25K at the moment. Although when I first buy an AIM share it is usually £4 until I find my feet. I think my day trading days are numbered so I am moving towards longer term investment (so I can get my life back!). For example with GGP and NCYT I hold core holdings plus more that I actively trade, not always sucessfully. Both these shares I see as medium term investments (months probably). SYN is a bit of a gamble so only have £6K invested. HEMO (actually not an AIM share but definately effected by Corvid "excitement") I also consider a longer term holding and I don't actively trade it. My bigger investments, which I do actively trade are with LLOY, PLUS, MCRO, ASC, OCDO and CCL, although I am currently out of LLOY, MCRO and CCL but am waiting for the right "moment".
Yes, life is calmer on the 10min chart, the trouble is I keep checking the situation on the 2 min charts if I am feeling itchy!. Ha. Have a good evening.

V: yes, I considered buying MCRO, it seems rather cheap but feel fully invested at the moment (that means I haven't any cash left....I always mean to hold some reserve for when that "bargain" turns up but of course never actually do it). I have some, small tranche of OCDO showing a small loss but I am convinced they will have a serious assault on the mountain that is 1700p high in next few days.

O: you would appreciate this, in the last few weeks I have gradually moved away from FTSE100 and 250 shares towards AIM and FTSE350s. I also seem to be a pharma investor. RENE, NCYT, SYN, GGP, AFX and HEMO now constitute around half my holdings by value. I both like and am scared by the volitility, I also like the general absence of stamp duty!

V: I was in LLOY big time but sold both tranches on tuesday, thinking to buy back now.

Happy Birthday Capt Tom.

C: It's OK we specialise in daft replies in this thread.

C: Hope you didn't act on my advice yesterday to buy FEVR. Sorry if you did.

Someone really seems to have pushed the button labelled "start recovery", lots of stocks up 10 to 20%. I am still not convinced, it all seems to be going forward too far too fast. Trouble is FOMO that if you haven't even got one hand on the rollercoaster you will get left behind. Many of my stocks have advanced a lot but I am dazed and nervous. I would rather have a long slow rise that would seem sustainable. Surely many of these companies will take many weeks just to be trading again and months to be fully functional and might never reach their pre-crisis levels. Then there is the deferred extra costs they have suffered plus the cost of whatever new protection measures that will be needed. Well, share valuations are partly based on future earnings but we are talking very long term here.
Yours sincerely,
Dazed and Nervous

I never said that I had sold CCL

Gosh what is going on, everything is up so much. Might have to take profit on CCL soon after a long positive run, frightened to loose that profit, same really applies to MCRO and ASOS, an alert has just warned me and i have sold MCRO at 481. Got nervous with ASC, sold them too. Note this post, lost in the post, delayed from 14:12, in both cases, time has told that I sold too early!

C: I also have II, have been with them for 25+ years (from when they were TDW). Yes, to get a live price it is annoying to have to repeatedly use the QUOTE button. Anyhow, for the last three years I have used IG which, since their platform updating, I have been delighted with. Yes you get live prices and everything, EVERYTHING is faster. It only costs £3 a trade if you trade 3 times a month. Their are no regular monthly/quarterly platform charges. You can test it out for free. I keep my II account open only because it gives me extended settlement which I rarely use now so I am planning on closing the account soon.

C: T line doesn't indicate a buy yet on the 10 min chart but at 1714, if I was buying FEVR I would buy. A bit suprised you haven't got live prices. Which trading platform are you using as you usually get live prices with that.

C: Have you taken the plunge with FEVR yet? I have been watching it, if you are interested, the T line indicator is not saying buy yet. I am having fun with HEMO which had a terrific rise this morning so I bought on the inevitable shake. Risky stuff but thought I might take a chance using some of my recent (lucky) gains.

Well for the rest of us on planet reality, it isn't May tomorrow, but I daren't say anything.
