Not sure that is right TM. I think they check when you start to draw down and at age 75. Nice problem to have and remember you’ll get nothing from a bank for a while. Spend spend spend?

Cheers Toneman. I asked my FA about the LTA and he advised that you only get hit in the pocket when you withdraw over the LTA , not each year as I believe someone else stated. He may be wrong but I’d be a bit surprised. Sorry I forgot until now to pass this on.

Toneman , I’m in that fortunate position where I still have quite a few ITM shares but have also sold over twice as many over the last 18 months(mainly ISA holding). Having an original cost at about 35p and traded quite a lot my nett ITM gain if you like must be in the £100,000’s. I guess ITM has made me relatively well off. Consequently the ins and outs are quite big but they don’t scare me. At the end of the day if you nail a 5p swing on 10000 shares you are £500 better off. That’s obvious but rinse and repeat or get a 25p swing and Bob’s your uncle , Fanny’s your aunt. You can’t always get it right and god knows I’ve had my losses down the years.....

Basically what Toneman just said......

At the risk of repeating myself , repeating myself , I have a long term holding. Because ITM can be pretty volatile I am always looking for that volatility , over a day or a few days , whatever. I try to be in a position to buy on a drop or sell on a rise , if I think that move is likely to reverse. For example this week I have made a dozen or so buys and a similar number of sells. I tend to buy or sell minimum 2.5k shares up to say 10k. I have just calculated , following your question , that as compared with doing nothing I am up £10,700. Bearing in mind that today I am down considerably , like most investors in to green , that gain is my silver lining. In short it is possible to not risk too much but come out fairly well up provided you are happy to keep an eye on things. That’s me anyway , sorry if it is boring anyone or seems simplistic..... that’s me too. GLA

Just noticed that Vestas has been down as much as 8% today. I guess all the greenies were due some turbulence.

Agreed Bilbs. Worst thing you can do is panic. Go watch Rachel on Countdown , take your mind off.

Let’s see how the relative demands stack up at the end of the day and let’s see what the overall volume was. Personally , based upon previous days like this ( and there’s been a few ) I don’t agree the playing field is exactly level all the time. Feels like we’re playing up a one in three.

Mervvv. You implied that LTH’s are causing the swings , just wasn’t sure why you’d reached that conclusion? You may be right but I think most people , especially LTH’s just ride the storms.

Not sure where you get that from Mervvv. There’s very few shares being traded on these swings as compared with the degree of swing. Game playing in my book. It’s more likely that the sellers are taking a bit of profit or getting hung on their stop loss? Additionally people who’ve bought at £7 or more may be losing their nerve. Tomorrow will be interesting ( to say the least!) Where’s Smithy when you need a prediction?

People say shares can’t be played OB but you’ve summed it up there. Strong buying.... SP drops. Let’s see where we end up today. Volatility is the dealers friend , if you can manufacture it then it’s really money for old rope as you fleece the inexperienced investor. Don’t like it.

Not sure exactly what the sell:buy ratio is but it doesn’t look too dramatic. This share moves like your proverbial fiddlers elbow , particularly when news is due , sometimes known news and sometimes RNS’s out of the blue. If you can play the volatility then good , personally I have reduced my costs by over £5k this week. I suspect this will recover a fair bit later but please don’t take this as a prediction. As for the trading update tomorrow , it won’t be great in terms of invoiced sales..... we’ve been waiting for the factory , but I suspect the pipeline will be markedly higher than previously. How the market will react who knows but I wouldn’t panic .... there isn’t a better area to be invested in IMO.

****** was race ist , not allowed for some reason.

“Take or leave Trump”? Substitute “strangle or shoot” for me. A complete disgrace of a man(?). ****** thicko , just waiting for him to be jailed...... must get off this fence....

“Teflon makes up part of my body”? I’m thinking of suing but doubtful I could make it stick.....

Don’t knock it TM , sounds much better than what my Mrs. serves up if I ever let her ‘cook’.

Any publishable views on individual shares Bilbs? Considering the CGT hit here myself.

Quite like the last sentence: “yeah , things are looking great”. Together with chat about another 2GW factory he seems fairly confident. Understatement!

There you go , much closer to £7 , 6 pence nearer to be precise. Pretty normal volatility for this thing and after a fantastic rise the last week/month/year really. The results could be problematic but haven’t been recently as the focus has been on getting the factory up and running. I think people realise that the jam won’t arrive tomorrow but is certainly winging it’s way. That said I would imagine the pipeline update will actually read quite well so who knows? Don’t be completely surprised by a decent piece of news either , the results are sometimes the s**t topping of an open sandwich. GWA

Just this once , hopefully SH3. End of day hard to call. Hopefully a bit nearer £7.
