Question ?
Where are market makers based ?
Are they a single entity
Who do they work for ?
Has anyone here ever worked in this area, or know anyone who has
Interested to know how this process works, it is obviously not simply supply & demand.
Plenty of days where buys out weigh sells & the price drops & vice versa
Thanks

Just got there Jakers, I feel great with 1 bottle of wine inside me
stands to reason if I drink another 2 bottles of wine ill feel FANTATIC

only joking

have a good weekend

cheers for the advice BJ
Have just finished half bottle of calm down juice ( wine ) & for some reason don't feel as negative

lol

cheers tacet, good advice

ps. wanna buy some BP shares, got loads, going cheap ??

lol

Sorry in advance, need to vent !!!!!

What an infuriating share to be invested in at the moment
In April 2020, in the middle of the worlds worse health & economic crisis due to covid crude oil was MINUS $37 per barrel and BP share price was ave. 325p

Roll forward 10 months, the world has a effective vaccine being rolled out against covid, oil prices have recovered to just under $ 60 per barrel, light at the end of the tunnel has been switched on, BP still pay a 6 % dividend

The bloody share price is now 250p and falling, WHAT THE HELL DO WE HAVE TO DO ?????

I have 60,000 shares in this stock, 1 month from today i will sell them at a loss if necessary to get rid of them

Rant over

Worried ? I’d be over the moon at any type of take over

Loadsamoney

im in the sub £ 2 club at £ 1.96
im in the sub £ 3 club at £ 2.98
I will be in the sub £ 4 club at ??

this share will make me very rich or very poor

lol

US down, dollar up, usual suspects & Friday profit taking nothing to worry about
Bought some more at £ 2.98
got to stop doing this, think I'm turning into a BP junky. lol

Just a bit of fun, there has been an urban legend for years that market makers have a secret code they use to communicate what they want a share price to do, google it.

Look at level 2 information lots of individual shares down the ladder on demand side for 7 shares
Interesting !!!

Planting my flag now while oil is below $ 60 per barrel.. why ?

1. Oil is priced in US $
2. US government is printing dollars 24/7 due to coronavirus, eventually this can only lead to 1 thing, inflation
3. Everyone on this planet hates stinky old polluting oil including policymakers
4 .You cannot raise capital to drill for more stinky old oil as we don't need it any more because we all have electric cars, don't we ?
5. When the world wakes up again, as it has in China, we will all be travelling & consuming again like we always have
6. Joe Biden, next US president, hates stinky old oil, therefore lots of free money to invest in wind, solar & renewables, none for stinky old oil
7. News flash.. the world we like to live on relies on fossil fuel and will do for the foreseeable future
8. Supply & demand 101 kicks in, reduced supply, increasing demand = oil prices straight through the roof
9. BP is profitable at $ 35 per barrel, what will there share price be when oil is $150 - $200 per barrel

time will tell

I don’t think so, some fat fingered broker, the 22m trades were made then cancelled twice.

Me too, I'm in the sub £ 2 club, bought a few at 1.96
Had my finger on the button to sell some earlier today, looked at the chart & " don't sell a rising share " popped into my head
Rising share & good dividends, think I will keep um for a while

Invested/ traded in this company over last year, i now have 10007 shares ( odd number I know )
I will be taking my fully entitlement in the RI

My thoughts are as follows
1. Tui largest travel company in the world
2. Covid virus stoped their business dead
3. loads of debt because of zero business
4. Company have to raise capital to survive

the above points 1 to 4 I feel are fact

The future of the company lies with what happens next

1. Worldwide roll out of coronavirus vaccine & its effectiveness
2. The willingness of people take the vaccine on mass
3. Will people still want to go on holiday ?

My view of the 3 points above is as follows ..

I may as well be invested because if the vaccine is not effective or people won't take it, we are all doomed anyway.
Debating what the share price will be pre/ post RI in the next 2 weeks / 2 months will be, is not really relavent

Looking out 2 years time, the only way to make money is to be invested, if we are all DOOMED it doesn't matter either way

Keep safe

Has the door finally closed on the sub £ 2 per share on Bp ??
If so, i am looking forward to closing the door on the sub £ 3 club
Good news today
Keep safe all.

Noticed this stock a few weeks ago, trades from 26 to 31 ish on a regular basis.
Looks like a good long term bet also as they have exposure to the US construction sector, short term trader, long term hold

Have a look

2 years ago ave price of bp shares was £5.50 if you had said then in 2 years the price would be £1.94 you would have been laughed at, fair enough

What is the price of BP shares 23/10/23 ??

At some point in the future we will be able to brag to one and all,

I bought BP shares less than £ 2

When will that be ??? lol

The best investor who ever lived & hopefully still lives said...
“be fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful.”
the guy has recently been buying into the energy sector via natural gas , why ????
investors think the world does not need energy any more, as long as the wind blows & the sun shines we are ok.
I don't think so
Unless you want to live in a cave, this planet will run on fossil fuel for the next 20 years, like it or not
i am long BP and will remain so
