Stock market dealing

I can't understand how anyone is supposed to use the tradertv emails to trade, as I have explained to you, and as you haven't responded to. So how am I going to use them?

Sure, I saw that XBP are going to use their software on some Oracle platform. Was I supposed to conclude that some small British software company with offices next to Burger King by the Egham bypass was going to have a material effect on Oracle's share price?

Shorting XBP's shares into this morning would have been good. But I didn't take it further because I suspected that there would be no way to do it, and I had better things to do than try to find out. Reading about Andorra might have been as profitable a use of my time.

I don't see how anyone could spot that this was going to jump

BTCT did again what it did yesterday. It doubled. I'll be looking tomorrow too...
T212 slashed the amount you can use on the cfd platform. It's down to 71 shares, which is £240 or so of margin .

As reproduced above, #788, they give you the names which are reporting, their co details, premarket moves.... which are rising or falling etc etc.
If you can't work out how you might use any of that then nobody can help you, I fear. You're attempting something beyond you.

You're trolling again. Egham? TTV are in Canada ffs.

I had better things to do

Whose problem is that? Yours or theirs?

You are "supposed" as you put it, to use your brain.
You seem to think you're entited not to have to learn or do anything for yourself. ??

How on earth can you manage to misunderstand what I say so readily? Are you a bot?

You're sayinig something about somewhere in Egham. WHich has no relevance to anything. FFS.
Makes a change from Andorra but equally, silly.

 

[Arbu]

I admit to being AI. But maybe it's interesting for people to see two bots arguing.

Bonkers bitcoin - or more specifically the ticker $BTCT.

I used a log scale to decompress the bottom, but those are dollars, not %.
So Your $2 investment on the 10th, last Monday, is now, Thursday midday, $25.30

A lump dropped on it yesterday afternoon is now a lump and a half.
OK. Thank you very much, but it's
Bonkers

Can we start thinking about inflation now? Think I'll sell some gold.

I'm partly out of gold now because it's difficult - inflation sends it up and interest rates send it down, so maybe I was lucky that it came down so nicely. Powell speaking today though, and maybe he can help us focus on the latter. Also the trend has been down all month.

Decided to buy some Berkshire Hathaway and Chesapeake Energy.

I have some Berks B. The growth is as much from the dollar strength effect as the stock itself.
Spare cash is going into "long USD Short JPY 3x", It evens out the currency price and provides over 1% a day recently.

If Nvidia results aren't spectacular, I'm ready for a collapse. PLTR gone go down a lot too. IWM (the Russel 2000 - smaller size companies) is a safer bet.
I bought Biotech as a diversification - I'm glad I'm out now that imbecile is in charge of health.

 

[Arbu]

All out of gold. Long now.

 

[Justin Passing]

Out of it or long? Gold due to climb back up I think. Painfully slow, though.
I'm long 3x MSTR and 3CON in two orphaned p[ensions. Each took a long time to get to 2xxk over the years "under professional management", now they're both 5xx about 10 days after going into the ETFs. Just think, if you only had 400k in a pension pot, those 10 days would transform the rest of your life. Roughly, an annuity of 20k a year would go up to 50k. That's from tight, to plenty.
3Con made me twitchy because it dipped before going back up, and in a pension you can't do anything fast.
I don't think there's a limit to bitcoin. 100k, then to the mooooooon.

Otherwise I withdrew a bit from plain tech funds, and went into small-caps. Now we know the NVIDIA results were a bit of a non event, it may prove to have been a decent move if highest-tech loses its sparkle. They're currently ticking over at over 1% a day. You only need about 0.025% to beat building society rates. 1% a day, 250 working days a year, is times twelve.

AJ Bell have a good screener. It threw up a decent Bond, Artemis funds (Lux) Glbl Hi Yld, which is better than the MAN ones at the moment. Probably.

I was short before and then went long.

If I understand these leveraged products correctly, you could do better spread-betting couldn't you? Then you have to put up 20% margin, whereas for your 3* products you are getting 3* the return for putting up 1 * the price, so that's equivalent to 33% margin. I suppose you have to take the money out of a pension fund though.
