Hi Guys,

I bought 30k shares back in post covid recovery days (May 2021) at 202p, so you can imagine, I was sitting on big losses since and only broke even back in September this year after many years of an agonising wait. I sold straight away as at 202p but wish that I had held on another 6 weeks till today for some profit, but happy for all us guys who finally broke even after 3+ years of sitting on losses. Good luck everyone.

Bobbins ... I was averaging 1.77 as break even ... I sold at 1.70 afew weeks ago at overall -£3k loss. But then with talk of 2.20 on here I bought back in and now back to-£15k overall ... I wish I had stayed out and given up this gambling. I have no option but to hold till we get to 1.70-1.80.

I am no expert but sound to me that when things settle the markets will fly and more importantly IAG ... for now i've just stayed put in and not risked coming out to miss the almighty spike that may happen at some point ... not sure if anyone else thinks that ?

Good job I went with my gut and stayed in rather than hope to buy in cheaper today ..... pheeeeeew

mmmmm, not sure ... need to b/e soon as career break coming to an end and won't be able to gamble after as will be back to work ...
A sudden slight buy in now going on .... I think I will risk it and stay in .... may open good on Monday for no apparent reason to me as does sometimes ....

oh sugar ...decisions decisions ... which can be so wrong and costly .... I think that I will risk it ... if it sinks, it will recover in time I guess .... as long as I break even after 1 year of boredom busting by doing this gambling whilst taking a career break ...

oh sugar .. the SP going down suddenly ... people bailing out for the weekend....

I think I am going to leave it in ; this share sometimes does opposite to what is expected ... I call it gambling ( as not experienced ) so going to gamble and leave in .... I need 177 for b/e which I had and should have got out but now on about -£4k at caurrent SP

ok, thanks guys ... may leave half in and half out just in case by some miracle a positive development happens in Ukraine and its shoots on opening to 170/175 +

so Big B what's the prediction Sir?

I was a LTH and am (sort of still ) but tend to come out sometimes overnight / at weekends and have guessed right sometimes and others wrong ( and I do mean guess as not experienced as some of you guys ) but this weekend to stay in or out is a hard one to call ... as could sink like monday opening SP or could even spike as an opening SP?
Decisions decisions .....

Any thoughts whether a big tank over the weekend or stable at todays range?

Thank you

Woody, Thank you .... learning every day, mainly the hard way ... but at least back in and fingers crossed. I guess the thrill to trade a bit during volatile periods is very tempting but dangerous unless your experienced as you say.

Rob,
Back in at 173 .... lost out on growth between 165-173 but hey ho; lesson learnt not to try and day trade in between trying to guess the dips and peaks and just simply leave as a LTH ... my b/e is now 185.
Good luck all

...and still out on the sidelines ... got caught out ....

Rob,
I've been in since Nov'20 and my average was 220 but managed to get to 177 .... got to 165 on Tuesday and thought I'd sell to buy in again at 157 and it shot up since .... I could have broke even today but am still on -£5k :-(

As a novice I am learning this fast ; Thank you.

To be fair to BB ; he / she does have a good point .... waves of money sweeping a sector can absoulutely peak or tank the shares within that sector in my novice point of view

So why the slight trend today guys? I hope the Gapping at 140's isn't rearing its ugly head again for a few weeks of downs ?
