The thing is choco most people think M&S a little boringI have done many theatre trips and weekends away to Paris and Amsterdam and so on and the staff and management are fantasticI could tell you stories we could get locked up fortwenty of us came out of a bar in Amsterdam having had our fair share of space cake and you would not have got the kind of customer service even Waitrose could offerand that is from staff 18-60...they are all the samegreat fun!the company are unbelievable IMHO.

bought a few back @208 to replace half of those that I sold yesterday (218.75 and 214.75). Also sold some yesterday @212.75 - will look to replace them closer to 203.

tabby - no tax on CFDs - and DMA commission for frequent traders is negotiated individually by that trader. Disclosure clauses usually prevent traders from revealing their commission structure - but most traders would pay less than the cost of two big mac meals on a 20k trade - long or short.
This last week on MKS has actually been very profitable.

Tabby - I often post immediately after I trade - win or lose - It's important for me to do that because if I've traded I want whatever price I got to be transparent and verifiable. The edits add detail rather than change anything. I see nothing wrong with doing that. Quite the opposite in fact - it evidences the trade.
There are some who post after the event and claim to have bought at the day's low and sold at the day's high. They also never lose. Either they're sad and lonely fibbers ('Tardis Traders') who crave the attention and image of success that their real lives so sadly lack or they're genuine magical super traders who never lose - like your goodself for example.
You ask what triggers sale of the 208 tranche. I'm trading the channel between 203 and 240. I'll sell into strength and buy weakness within my own sizing rules. If we ever get to 240 I'll be mildly short by the time we touch that price.

Gausie.whats a Big Mac?it is not right or proper for me to shout about how much I have made on M&S over the last three years or further back? let us just say quite a bitand with minimum effortthere is room for both of usI am quite happy for traders to beat each other upfor every winning trade there is a higher losing trade!

A Big Mac is what you'll be eating for dinner for the next 10 years when Mrs Tabby finds out how much of her Cannes spending money you've blown on Meldex.

Tabby - Strange that you claim it's not right and proper to shout about how much you have 'made' on MKS. Nobody's asked you to. Yet you'll freely post up your Xfactor bookie buys and sells with sizes - also unbidden.
Longer term on MKS I reckon Haystack is probably spot on - I think we'll go significantly below 2 - but in the meantime it's important to trade what you see, not what you think.

Gausiebelieve it or not my wife trust me because our Bank balance tells her I know what I am doingwe dont have separate moneywe dont have secretswe share everything.but to have our reasonably good lifestyle and the Bank balance to increase this yearalbeit not fortunes at this stage.but with most of the Xmas shopping doneI would say that is pretty goodOn mdx.if the sp was to climb to 30p.I would even go as far as to say we have had a fantastic financial year.

Gausie is quite right in what he is doing. It is classical trader tried and trusted behaviour. From an investing point of view MKS still looks bad. They are up at present on false hopes of a retail boom. They will have a bad Xmas like everyone else. It is fundamentally a failed business that will end up getting taken over.
Cuts in VAT will do litttle to perk things up. There is no tax on food and a 2.5% fall in some prices won't be noticed when shops are doing 20% off. I walked down the street in a major shopping street yesterday and almot every shop had a 20% off or other promotion. They were all empty. One huge two floor business with all glass at the front I could see was completely empty from across the road.
There were several closing down sales! I went into the shops and enqired if they were really closing and they all were with dates of closure set.

Difficult to find a single Tabasco tip on the horse racing thread that actually came off, unless you include retrospective editing of course.
