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!

Royce - 12 Mar 2004 12:11 - 30 of 46

litte woman hi again from the bear. try haliax they are doing a layaway system which will pay 6% for 12mts min 25 TO 250 A month

seawatcher - 12 Mar 2004 12:27 - 31 of 46

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.

little woman - 12 Mar 2004 12:48 - 32 of 46

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.

little woman - 12 Mar 2004 13:05 - 33 of 46

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 - 12 Mar 2004 13:08 - 34 of 46

ThePlayboy - Could you tell me where I can find some info on R2, R1, PP, S1, S2.
Is it a chart indicator of some kind ?
Thanks in advance

ThePlayboy - 12 Mar 2004 13:28 - 35 of 46

Croc sorry just seen ur post as u know i live in the TR:) no pos atm await figs

nostromo go to crocs site snappytrader,com for info on pp,s etc, too long to explain and am a little busy atm!

little woman - 12 Mar 2004 13:48 - 36 of 46

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!

little woman - 12 Mar 2004 13:57 - 37 of 46

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!

optomistic - 12 Mar 2004 14:03 - 38 of 46

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

littlewoman, also consider ING Direct, 4.5% currently.

little woman - 12 Mar 2004 14:35 - 41 of 46

Kayak - just opened an account with ING Direct - that was easy! I didn't have to produce any ID or proof of address.

I think I'm going to start a thread on Banking accounts!

stockbunny - 12 Mar 2004 14:47 - 42 of 46

Agree, ING is offering a good deal and easy to use plus
interest that appears monthly and transactions that get
done quite quickly - a thumbs up savings account!

Kayak - 12 Mar 2004 14:50 - 43 of 46

Yes lw, the first deposit can only be by cheque from your current a/c hence name checked, and you have to wait for them to write to you before accessing your account hence address checked.

little woman - 12 Mar 2004 14:56 - 44 of 46

I've been so busy trying to doing some "personal admin" I didn't notice that the FTSE is up 18+

Melnibone - 12 Mar 2004 15:09 - 45 of 46

That's sometimes the best way, little woman, as long as
you enter a position for sound reasons.

When I sit watching every little tick I sometimes get
influenced by the noise and take a small profit too early.
When I have to go away and do some chores I'm often
happily surprised by the nice gain I when I get back.
Took a long on SBRY this morning, came back after lunch
and took the profit after the Confidence numbers.

Melnibone.

Melnibone - 12 Mar 2004 15:19 - 46 of 46

FTSE is currently back up and stalled where it bounced to
yesterday.

Check out the 2 day chart at the top of this thread.
