Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

I also had problems typing here yesterday 3 monkies, several letters omitted and the cursor was very slow to react, so far today no problems, touch wood.

Someone at moneyAM is going to get a bollicking tomorrow

Right alders my attempt at illustrating the 2*2 trading system the big boys use.

Firstly got to pick a stock......go for CEY...... our kid who doesnt know much about stocks is trying to learn. (hard work)and he rekons its a legal win in the courts (i have doubts)

Right for illustrative purposes say we have a £100,000 pound portfolio cash plus holdings.

The chart as end of close friday is this.............



Right the maths equation is this ..................T=PR/(E-X) where T is the size of the trade, P is the portfolio size (cash plus holdings), R is 2%, E is the entry price and X is the pre-determined stop-loss exit price.

SO if by definition we want to limit loses to 2% of our portfolio we know we want to limit loses to £2,000 quid.

The chart show us we have mid term support at 50p




So to limit our losses to £2,000 quid we know present price of stock is 52p therfore 2,000.00 divided by 52.00 = 3846 shares we buy. Our target price is 150p per share minimum. (here we talking about £1 point per share on a spreadbet if it were £10 point per share you divide 3846 by 10 etc etc.) Your target price and stop loss would obviously move in proportion to the size of your bet.

If for example you were betting £200 per point youd have a stop loss 10 points lower than present SP at 42p and your target SP would be 72p. Always remember to start off by finding your pre-determined stop loss. In my above example ive used
market conditions as presented on the chart. For example you wouldnt normaly let the SP go much under that support at 50p and youd just be losing your money.


So basicaly we have here the foundation of the system here as I have posted it.

Heres long term chart of CEY..........





What you have to remember if things go wrong in the market eg, looks like we have a big turn down ready to happen close and take profit quickly. Use ones own discretion.

Note I dont use 2% of my folio i use 0.75% which makes the SP movement more volatile but suits my EDGE.

As I pointed out friday I use also another SET UP for getting in on a stock for entry purposes.

What you also have to remember is that investors traders have different ways of going in for a stock rather than using support some people just have a money figure in mind as to how much they are going to lose.


Any question alders just ask. I think ive got a heavy week ahead with my aunt in hospital etc. etc.

Where are the 'working class' MPs on Labour's front bench?

The Labour backbencher John Mann told the newspaper that Ed Miliband needed to "speak the language of voters in Bassetlaw, not academics in Hampstead".

Thousands of job-seekers queued for THREE HOURS to land one of just 40 jobs at supermarket giants Aldi

A line of hopefuls snaked around the store in Bridgnorth, Shropshire

One teenager said he saw the queue and his 'heart sank'

Another said: 'It looked more like auditions for X-Factor, not a job for Aldi'

Thousands of job seekers queued for more than three hours in a desperate attempt to nab one of just 40 positions at supermarket giants Aldi.

The job hopefuls began queuing at 10am, despite the interviews not starting until 1pm, forcing staff to start 20 minutes early on Friday.

At least 1,500 candidates queued around the block for just 40 positions now available at Aldi stores across the Midlands.





Each candidate was given a mini-interview with management teams from branches of the supermarket before handing in their CV and contact details.

A teenager, who did not want to be named and joined the winding queue at noon at the Bridgnorth store in Shropshire said: ‘I knew it started at 1pm so I wanted to get here early, but I didn’t expect there to be that many people.

no point at all in hays (or anyone else) getting excited about a single poll result ..... it gets interesting only if a similar trend against labour is repeated for several weeks

cynic
It was 2 poll results with both showing one point gap?

The trend is clearly shown in the chart above.

Miliband has given away a ten point gap in less than a year.

Osborne still has one autumn mini budget and one full budget before the election. I suspect Osborne has been saving up the pension change for now. On that basis, I would expect he has a few sweeteners in his back pocket for closer to the election.

Hazy One should recollect his posting on the accuracy of polls, before he wets his pants!

That book you recommended is scheduled to arrive tomorrow.

Here is an interesting book. I have been looking for my copy to reread it, but is appears to have been mislaid.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Holocaust_Industry

Goldie

I didn't think that you would post that amount of info , thank's very much i will have to study all that.

Funny that you should take CEY as an example, because just over a week ago i bought a very small amount of CEY as a punt @ 55p. The legal case is not the only thing that is holding the price down .

the petroleum ministry promised 18 tonnes daily of explosives to restore the production to normal levels, but the request to increase to 40 tonnes was not responded to.

Cheers alders, picked CEY because my brother as just bought stock aswel and wanted to show him how the system worked.

Looks like good results out today.

hays - whichever such book you read, you have to remember that the author will have his own slant

btw, My Promised Land isn't about the holocaust at all, except indirectly

cynic
Of course. The book isn't about the Holocaust at all. It is about modern Israel an how it capitalises on and exploits its history and how it behaves. It is very well written and quite academic in its approach. Did you follow the link?

Plane lost - no survivors

Agreed.

Still lots of questions to be asked.
