I got back in for the short haul @412 - looking for 35 - 40 points.

I was slower skinny 424.18

Chris, I was a long term holder until recently - just a S/B this time.

Lets hope we are lucky.

I took 30 points earlier - I'll see what next week brings.

Thanks skinny. Me too - wtfdik - but I'm sticking my neck out for a break-out coz firstly, it looks like it and also coz I want it (see below)!

Shame Brexit happened when it need not have done. But that's another story and I'm not qualified to discuss (non-resident these last 9 years). Except I have held since pre-Brexit and consequently been shat upon from a great height by pillocks like Boris.

you would be more accurate to point the finger at corbyn and his less than half-hearted support of the remain campaign

Why not Cameron for trying to save his own skin and end up hanging himself.

Get Lost Fred!

Indeed, Corbyn and Boris are both Brexit buffoons. However, Farage gets most of my vitriol - at very high hydrostatic pressure.

An update on post 415.

Could be wrong but I think 460 would be a good target with a Limit, could spike up there. Then we know what to do with spikes.

skinny re. 433 (which re. 415). Filling the gap then.

I think it will hold the new level - when it gets there. Of course I want it to, but it's also realistic! 445-460 until next results, then up, up and away?
