Any punters living in Birmingham Area interested in a Pie, Pint and jaw, one evening in a pub in Birmingham area.
Personally interested in small time investing(gambling), developing an appetite for CFDs. Also developing an interest in Charting or TA.

I use Sharescope, Moneyam, Barclays, Comdirect and IC

I will make an effort to bring along some FOREX stuff - seeing as how that's my current addiction/obsession.

Great day for the West Midlands yesterday. Baggies pull it out of the hat and the Blues wipe their Arse nal on souther wooftas ;)))

All we need now is a Russian Billionaire to buy one of them !!!

Just been thinking again. Well trying to. Anyone with ideas about stop losses and their implementation.

Does approach vary for various instruments.

How one sets them-How one implements them.

Would these ideas stimulate or frightened.

Who will materialise at the meet.

I was thinking about these with my own holdings SEO,RTD,CASH, BPRG would print graphs it anyone else holds them or is interested.


See you at Tuesday May 24th at 4.30 pm.

This Is all good food for thought Fred.

Will see you all at 4.30 pm this afternoon.

Good to meet you guys - hope the Oakham hasn't sent you crazy

Stan
Have you had a look at ITQ today ;)

Good session. Hope you all got back OK. Just having a quick look at what I "missed" today, bit of a mixture really.

Ah well. Tomorrow is another day.

55011 i hope you have fared better than I have today. Perusal of my shares to-night gave a report of could do better.

Meet again same place same time one month if I still have the car out of hock.

MG What were you saying to me about the size of my holdings. My hands are now in a different place. 8-)

Fred
Shouldn't wear those tight trousers - now you're (just) over 30 you need to give them a bit more room for manoevre ;)

To while away the hours whilst SEO and BPRG drop ;)

Detach the chart and expand it to fit the screen then
Instrument = GBP/USD
Timescale = 5 minute
Studies = SMA = 60; MAE = 25; MACD = 19,39,9

Watch the movement and, perhaps, paper trade FOREX to see if you like it;)

mg - I moved from cable to BPM5 a while back - check it out - it's like forex thru SETS, so you can make market. Trades 23 hours a day - so time to take a pee, and can hedge with FX if u get a sharp movement whilst closed. Currently trading 15 or 16 points lower, converging for end of June. Spread typically 2 points. Trading costs (through etrade) mean you need less than 2 points to make profit.

Enjoyed the evening and looks like we all got home OK.

Will have a gander at ITQ sometime today MG.

I see the Monster MOB Is up another 6% so far today.

Same time same place next month Is fine by me Fred.

Good morning. Tuesday 21st June is OK with me.

I see oil is creeping up again. Over 49$ this morning. US stock futures weaker. Not boding so well..........

OK next meeting at

Tuesday 21st June at 4.30 pm.

The Anchor.
308 Bradford Street,
B5 6ET.

Still thinking about stop losses.

Anybody any ideas of topics. Can print some charts if wished

Yes the 21st June at 4.30 pm. Is fine for me Fred.

I know for well that I should use stop losses and stick to them

for everything but still find that hard.

No topics spring to mind yet, but nearer the date perhaps.

Time to bring this back onto the front page, to give folk a chance to get it into their diaries.

Things not looking too bad overall, FTSE at or about 5050. And the chance to enjoy a week of L2 on the house all the while.

55011 Yes things are looking a bit brighter for the last couple of weeks. The puzle for me is my portfolio tends to be going up more when the market goes down a bit. Strange. I have recently printed out the Holdings in my portfolio according to weight of holding. Surprise me a bit. Might be a topic for a chat.
I am not certain how much the exchange rates against the dollar is playing a part in the recovery or the effect of the demised of constitution vote and EU Friction.

Any other ideas.


Have a look at CSN, BRW, CASH, PDC, SEO? and BPRG, got a feeling the latter will have broken out of down trend by then.


I any want a graph printed for the meet let me know.

Have a nice and """properous Week""" or two.

Any of you use Trix momentum Indicator?

Never heard of It Fred, what are there claims?

UUUUUUUUUUUU Not sure but it looks pretty. Actually is the average of the average with another average acting as a trigger. Seems crazy but when I apply it to holdings it does tie in with SP movement. Not sure.



"""""""""""The TRIX indicator is a momentum indicator displaying the percentage rate of change of the share price after applying three successive exponential moving averages. The aim of the TRIX is to track trends that are at least the specified period in length.

The TRIX tends to be plotted with a 9 day signal line to help in its interpretation. There are a couple of popular methods used to interpret the TRIX.


To buy shares when the price turns up and to sell when it turns down.

To buy shares when the TRIX rises above its signal line and sell when it falls below the signal line.

As with many such momentum indicators, the TRIX indicator works best in trending markets.
""""""""""

Well, not bad week all in all. Another few bob up, and if the crude doesn't get out of hand, maybe a bit more to come. See you on Tuesday. If the weather stays as it is today (almost 30 degrees) we'll be hammering that tasty mild.......

Just bringing this to the top for any new Interested parties... getting thirsty already 55!
