I seem to have a lot more blues
This is my biggest surprise - I purchased BT recently to hold for no more than a few weeks, and the profit is increasing despite then last 2 days!

little woman, BT held a conference with some analysts and
has received broker upgrades ref it's broadband strategy.
If we hadn't had the last few days I feel it would be well up.
On the flip side, a lot of TA guys are calling this down
longer term as funds sell out every time it gets towards
190/200p.
Just goes to show that nobody really knows and you should
trust your own decisions.

Melnibone, I have a friend who works for BT managing the engineers that install broadband for BT. He tells me they can't cope with the workload, as they are getting so many orders. They are all working 6 day weeks and sometime 13 hour days and still can't keep up with the new orders!

Mel,
Keep posting, it is useful advice whether experienced or not.
Are you still watching GSK, it all but touched 1050p earlier and your 1000p post a month or so back continues to look increasingly accurate - I'm still short term trading it (with some success) but still plan to enter for LTBH in the near future.

Eustox50 PnF now showing a sell. But if you check back along this Bull Run
then each time it did it, it was a Bear Trap.
Lot of my PnF charts are showing the same thing.
To repeat myself, be wary of going heavily short here. Do the same as TP and
wait for confirmation and take a chunk out of the middle.
Better to take a smaller profit than get caught against the trend.
Don't let Mr. Market make a monkey out of you.

Still watching GSK, Fundamentalist.
1000p isn't far away now, is it?
It's nice when I get something right for a change. :-)

TP trading FTSE 100 myself at the moment with 4410 support and 4450 ceiling
Melnibone - 12 Mar 2004 11:30 - 27 of 46
I got caught yesterday as well TP.
When LGEN hit 98p support and the FTSE stopped falling at 4460,
I bought for the bounce retest of 100p and FTSE 4500.
Instead, everything dropped again and it came back up to test
4460. :-(
Got out for the loss of the spread in the end.
'Dems de breaks'. ;-)

I just got an e-mail from egg - they have a introductory offer of 4.75% for new internet savings accounts (6 months) and then back to the same (current 4%) as on existing savings accounts!
Because I already have an account, the opening the new account was easy and took about 30 seconds - the only catch is they won't accept money from existing egg accounts! So I transfered my money out of the old account to my current account, and then transfered the money back staight away!

Good move Little Woman!
Glad to see it's a little blue screen-wise now - 8.30am was pretty rough
but will be interesting to see where the cousins across the water
send the indices this afternoon.
I took one look at yesterday round lunchtime and turned the computer
off, no funds to buy anything going cheap so no point watching
the carnage if I didn't have to!

LW,
I actually do some trading through XEST ( not my only broker) based on my EGG internet investment account. Found it to be efficient with good prices so far. Get the good rate on the reserve funds if ever have any free! Have never experienced any dealing problems.

Royce, I have my current account with halifax. I don't like put regular sums away as I don't have a regular income - my egg account is my emergency funds account, to cover me when money I'm expecting is late, (often) or the occations when I have no "income" at all!
I'll take a look at the Halifax account, as 6% is worth considering.

Oh well that was short lived! I checked out the Halifax and to get the 6.05% I have to open 2 new accounts, and go and produce all my ID, and proof or address again for each account - even though I have already done all that with them last year when I opened my current account. Trouble is I don't have time for the 30 mile round trip to go to the branch, parking charges and 2 hours out of my day.
At least with egg, I didn't have to do anything except access the internet.......

nostromo, take a look at the thread: PIVOTS - Daily Indices and FTSE 100 & 250 Stocks :http://www.moneyam.com/InvestorsRoom/ShowPostList?fID=1&tID=2684
R stands for resistance point and S support point. These are the levels that shares tend to bounce off!

Am I the only one that has problems with banking services?
I have a Co-operative business account, and finally decided to log into the new internet service as they are withdrawing the old one (which I never had any problems with. Had problems loggin in, ended ring the help line as the password didn't work. Tried to change the password, and it didn't want to know. I suppose I should wait 30 days because it'll make me change it then anyway - more passwords to remember! When I finally looked around the site, I couldn't figure out how to look at a statement (which is all I ever use it for!) I ended up loggin into the old site - much quicker and easier, trouble is they withdraw it next week.
If I have to ring them up everytime I try and log in because I can't remember the password, I may as well just go back to telephone banking!

It seems like that the banking service has the same problems as the Co-op stores. Lots of room for improvement!!
