CLOSED - THANKS to all customers for the last few years

Hello Socks!
And congrats to all the winners :)

That lets me out then Choccy.

Evening all,
Must add my congrats to today's winners, but also gardyne 3 1sts 1 3rd, I believe, what a wonderful numerical symmetry, and a terrific performance.

Also big THANKS to jeffmack for running the comp, cheered up what has been a dismal week on the market, and not just for me from comments round the board.

But enough of that, after all, IT'S FRIDAY! And I feel the need of a serious hit on the DP VIN to start the weekend in proper fashion, cheers!

Good evening all,fundy i thought chester is midweek as a rule for the may meeting,,tue/wens/thur,

Hello Stormy, I came in the room to switch off the PC and there you were, nice to see you hope you are keeeping well and pleased to see you have a little more spare time.

Evening opto,

Long time, wondered when I'd bump into you again, don't know about the more time, think it's called less sleep...lol. Doing ok though, how about you?
Care for a wet ?

I'm OK Stormy thanks wish some of the holdings were as well. Time for a quick slurp yes please, drop of that fizzy stuff is always nice, cheers.

You are not wrong there, good job there's enough for a refill, would be rude to let you drink alone, so I'd better have some more..:-)
Cheers!

Always is enough for a refill in here :-) How's the trading doing?

This year has been good for real shares up until last couple of weeks, had a good kicking! Margin stuff which I am new to has proved difficult, but real buzz, too many silly mistakes, but hopefully I am learning, time will tell.
What about you, earlier comment says a bit down?

I'm more of a term holder than 'margin' etc trading. never got my head round all that, seems to complicated and risky for me. Had some good gains this year but holding some losers right now.....hoping for that bit of magic to happen to put things right :-)

The risk element is there sure enough, and it doesn't suit everyone, but I felt I had to give it a try, and expected losses initially as it is a very different arena. Still holding shares as well, though trying to do both has been a bit of a stress, as have hardware problems, hopefully now fixed! Together with a couple of things I mentioned to you before that lot has kept me away, and very busy, for a while!
Must try to balance things a little better, which leads me naturally to...room for a refill, as you observed, lots more fizz left yet...lol

I would think for that kind of trading a mentor would be usefull, preferably on hand for regular guidance. As to hardware problems that is always a possibility in the background, sometimes I think a second standby unit would be very useful. I have a second PC but is a bit old and lacks some neccessary bits inside. Someone was coming to fit it up for me but not managed it yet.
Now the next slurp will have to be the last tonight, someone is saying I live on the PC :-))

A mentor would be great, preferably in the room 24/7!! Agree about backup, which I don't have...oops, lack of space is a bit of a problem on that score.
Anyway, as it's your last slurp, cheers, good luck, and here's to a good weekend!

Cheers Stormy, good to see you again, enjoy your weekend. Must go now so goodnight.

Goodnight opto.
