Clubby a grand up

skinny - 21 Jul 2010 16:36 - 251 of 450

So are you now short @400 a point? (Blnx thread post 1279)

Clubman3509 - 21 Jul 2010 16:39 - 252 of 450

No skinny 100 a tic

C3509
please confirm and clarify. how much do you consider to be one tick?1P or 0.1P.
i tried to clarify this and set out my views and workings on the blnx thread so as to confirm and agree with your post stating a profit of 18000 figure on a 60 point fall.
does your above answer agree that it is actually 300 per point as i suggested and which agreed with your 18000 profit figure over there? i think and reckon i got it right.
it would seem that s also got it right in his above post also, for it seems you added yet another short of 100 as per you post 249. add this to your 300 shorts from the blnx thread and we get the 400 short mentioned by s. hmmm! i am confused also so can you please explain? preferably before tomorrows opening. thanks and good luck
regards

Sell Autonomy @ 1817 100 tics @1 per tic

I could only get 100 it was their max

So for the thickos every 1 tic below 1817 Autonomy goes Clubby makes 100

Autonomy close Wed 21/07/10 1813 so Clubby makes 400

Simple merekat

ps
written before but posted after your amendment to post.

Clubman3509 - 21 Jul 2010 20:44 - 256 of 450

Give me strenth jkd read post 255 I wanted to short by a 1,000 per point but my spreadbetting company would only let me trade 100 per point I was going to do this trade with 4 different companies but could not open accounts in time.

Got it or do you want me to send you the book spreadbetting for dummies

Clubman3509 - 21 Jul 2010 20:47 - 257 of 450

Looks good for Clubby Thursday FTSE is going to open 25 - 40 points down

Dow down 117 points at 20.49

Clubman3509 - 21 Jul 2010 20:58 - 258 of 450

Thursday FTSE will open down 38 points at least

Wednesday DOW closes down 143 points

Clubman3509 - 21 Jul 2010 21:06 - 259 of 450

My prediction Autonomy will be down at least 30 points in first hour giving Clubby and all who took his advice 3,000 By the close I hope it will be down by around 92 points giving Clubby 9,200 less 4 point spread close

jkd - 21 Jul 2010 21:18 - 260 of 450

thanks for that C3509
i trust you have now made the necessary arrangements to open accounts with more than one broker/ spread better. ready for the need next time. it pays to be prepared.
we never know when it may be needed. just one broker and their internet service down AND so busy that they cant answer their phone timely, or dont want to, then what do we do?
be prepared, have more than one option available. just my opinion as always. it makes sense. can i remove my dummy now? am i grown up? am i prepared?

cynic - 21 Jul 2010 21:48 - 261 of 450

jkd - can one not deal s/b direct on-line as one can with CFD's or even straight share dealing?

also, correct me if i'm wrong, but i would have thought that even s/b dealing is open-ended for losses, so surely any broker offering same would want/need to make very detailed investigations of the wannabe-punter's assets etc, as well as the tiresome but usual money-laundering checks .... that being so, i have strong doubts that the BB's pet mountebank has 4 such accounts

jkd - 21 Jul 2010 22:03 - 262 of 450

cynic
quite so, but if we have nothing to hide then nothing to fear and accounts can be easily opened, and why not? they are subject to normal actual losses of all open positions verses deposits lodged. as long as the deposit lodged covers losses then no problem. and yes very detailed investigations are required, that all takes time,but it is time well spent. who says i must only have one broker? what if? on line is down etc. etc.?
what then? if i have no alternative in place.

jkd

cynic - 21 Jul 2010 22:07 - 263 of 450

it was merely a question ..... as the pet mountebank is arguably a non-dom, i would have thought he would have had even greater probs in opening accounts .... but if he says he has, then it must be true, mustn't it!

jkd - 21 Jul 2010 22:15 - 264 of 450

well actually Cynic it seems he dont(say so) in fact he confirms he was unable to open additional accounts in time, (in just one day).
thats why i suggested that being prepared for the next time is worth the time taken to do so.

jkd - Why are you even bothering, the guys a plank, intent on winding up every one and his dog. If he was a serious trader he would know the min and max (spread betting) 's per point of this stock that his particular spread betting company allows. Ask yourself this question, do you know anybody who actually states on any of the threads on this site 5, 10 per point let alone 1000 per point? Do you not think it would be 'Crass' to even contemplate?

Chris Carson - 21 Jul 2010 23:47 - 266 of 450

cynic - 'mountebank' good word! Personally prefer 'Gobshite' has a more sincere ring to it :o)
