Good morning!

Good morning.

Have UK focused stocks finally turned up? fingers crossed.

A developing uptrend and a golden cross?

OMG. Every single stock in my portfolio up or flat.

It's been a very long time since that's happened.

It looks to me like today is real buying with more than one party competing for volume. Hurrah. Makes a change.

I like the chart Skinny

UK mortgage approvals hit nine-month high in June - UK Finance

IG charts now show:

Spread bets and CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. 79% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs with this provider.
You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work, and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money.

That's a serious wealth warning

Some fairly hefty margin changes imminent at CMC!

UK retail and mortgage data points to pick-up ahead of BoE decision

Skinny re. CMC. I think you can avoid the increased margin requirements at CMC if you register as a non-retail trader, which I have done. It was a fairly simple process. I thought all brokers would be affected as, apparently, it is due to a change in the law.

My thoughts over the market turning yesterday may prove to be wrong again.

The outcome of the margin changes for most Clients will be interesting as effectively it's going to cut down on index trading.

I'm wondering what the long term affects will be on stocks. Brokers appear to be taking different stances on the go live date. Some are going with you need new levels of margin on day 1, others are going with only new positions at the new margin.

I'm also assuming the negative balance protection means margins on less liquid stuff may be well above the guidelines.

I'm guessing it's going to push down anything below say £100m market cap which is popular with PI's.

Good morning all
