Morning all. Thanks Croc & TP. Croc - FTSE 3500 before April 2004 - wow.

little woman - 10 Nov 2003 08:38 - 14 of 50

Morning all,

First stop loss (profit) kicked in first thing. (Only one I left in place from Friday, as the bid on the others always drop heavey first thing.) Now going to put the others back in place and would not be surprise if they all kick in today!

Melnibone - 10 Nov 2003 09:11 - 15 of 50

Morning all,

FTSE straight down to S1 and now trading in a 10 point band
just above S1 as it decides what to do.

AVZ below S2 and trying to hold the old 400p support.

In case anyone doesn't know, this stock has exposure to the dubious
fund dealing that Spitzer is kicking up about in the States.
There's some red flags been raised in it's fund trading that
will attract Spitzer's interest like blood to a shark.

Melnibone - 10 Nov 2003 09:24 - 16 of 50

FTSE now at PP.

Possibility of it trying to fill the gap open to 4376.

Melnibone

little woman - 10 Nov 2003 09:37 - 17 of 50

mmmmmm yep, it looks like it's filling the gap and heading upwards

little woman - 10 Nov 2003 09:57 - 18 of 50

I'm going to have to stop using the stop loss. 2 more kicked in, because the price dropped suddenly. Trouble was the went back up just as quickly. I think I'm going to have to restrict them to when I'm not able to watch the prices!

Oh well, not to worry I have quite a bit of cash now. Will wait out to see what else happens!

Melnibone - 10 Nov 2003 10:10 - 19 of 50

Gap just about filled.

Players left behind on Friday can now come in to play.

Have to see which way the market wants to go now.

Crocodile - 10 Nov 2003 10:10 - 20 of 50

Lost some on an late AVZ short but went reversed on the pullback when the FTSE went up. My HVN up another 3.

little woman - 10 Nov 2003 10:43 - 21 of 50

Took a look at AVZ after your comment croc -(I know the news was bad on Friday)and decided it was worth buying a few @ just over 4.08. I will keep a close eye on this one and hope to take may profit (?) before market close

little woman - 10 Nov 2003 11:09 - 22 of 50

Things are getting very interesting. Many shares are going up and down between 2 points (yes I know the support & resistance points). In some cases I've watch the same share hit both points 3 times in as many hours. They don't seem to be breaking either one!

Crocodile - 10 Nov 2003 11:17 - 23 of 50

There is something very interesting in the 5 day intraday chart on BFP, worth a look

little woman - 10 Nov 2003 11:30 - 24 of 50

I agree it does look interesting - but as a person who can only see the obvious, I'm not sure what it means! Any chance you can clarfy it for me?

Melnibone - 10 Nov 2003 12:05 - 25 of 50

Just got back after a bit of grocery shopping.

Don't seem to have missed much, seems like it's
justing dancing round the PP maypole.

Not really worth trying to squeeze a few points.
May end up on the wrong side of a decent move.
Coffee time.

Crocodile - 10 Nov 2003 12:19 - 26 of 50

Little woman
Big buyer comes into the market at the end of the day

little woman - 10 Nov 2003 13:05 - 27 of 50

of course silly me!

little woman - 10 Nov 2003 13:36 - 28 of 50

Want to keep track of this one - as I may pick a few more up later if drops enough, so posting todays chart!

The market looks like a line prop with a bowling ball on top :-)

stockbunny - 10 Nov 2003 15:04 - 30 of 50

Suggestions for a description of the markets lack of movement
outside a small range today to(hopefully) bring a tiny smile
to you guys/gals:
Treading water in a puddle
Peddling a broken exercise bike
'Rally' driving on the back of an AA relay truck
I will spare you any more!!!
Have a good day folks..

little woman - 10 Nov 2003 15:13 - 31 of 50

Talking about the AA relay trucks, this is a true story.

A business man received a speeding penalty in the post, and when he checked the date and time realised that he was in a very important meeting at the time with a number of witnesses, so could not have been speeding. When eventually he managed to see the picture taken of his car, he realised that he had broken down early that morning, and the car had been caught speeding while it was on the back of a AA relay truck!

stockbunny - 10 Nov 2003 15:19 - 32 of 50

Now that would be a surprise!
Pleased the positive sentiment has held on BAY - so far today anyway -
elsewhere its a 'dogs day' for many of the banks!
