They take girls these days!!!! So I need to ask which gender! (Showing my age!)Long to go??

Added another genuine long termer VTS after the recent breakout.

this is like watching paint dry today zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz :-)

BLND still looking good!

MB - broken out.

Still confident with my CTM short.

Anyone would think everyone has disappeared off for a long weekend......

Hello guys and gals.
Yipee had a short on the cable lastnight from 18425 and has falled some 250odd points -just gled to the screen locking in profits.

Hi all

Very quiet day - well done Zarif

lw - certainly not! Things livened up a bit.

Added longs in AZM and WBY. WBY - thought sell bot done, but was mistaken. Might be a bummer. AZM gives a nice ts so jumped in.

Nice one zarif. FX ain't my thing, but keep an eye on it. Do you watch the FX thread in the Traders' Room? Some handy stuff there.

I keep disappearing off to do things. I come back to find very little has
changed.....

Nice to hear you are still doing really well zarif - whats your secret?

Big Al

long a housebuilder day after interest rates go up - bit contrarian ?

Morning all

Zarif - we took it in turns! Had to have a lie in I was exhausted.

A very well done on your trade.

Fundamentalist - purely speculative intraday L2 play. Unfortunately, sell bot still there - thought it had cleared. Watching closely, but could lob for only minor loss. Looking round the sector, prices being held up depsite +0.25% Don't believe it'll last longer term.

amberjane, I'm afraid its afternoon not morning! Nice to see you up and about.

amber - remember CAN? It's not you buying and making it go up?

Oh s... is it, I wondered where half my life was going!!!!

Afternoon LW & all. :>)

Al

Longer term the one with real value to me is MCTY. Very strong fundamentally, been making share buy backs, higher margins, higher ROCE, gain planning easier, less susceptible to interest rate rises, little competition in retirement market, aging population, likely takeover target for Persimmon etc etc. Looking for a retrace to 480-500 (hopefully) before buying in the ISA.

Nope no funds at present but I bet your pleased, in profit yet?

Fundy

Was thinking of ditching Bovis for MCTY for same thoughts, aging pop etc. Any long term thoughts on BVS?
