Yep looks about that........ would be nice if we could blast out new highs though. Perhaphs wishfull thinking.

Nice consistent volume on those charts GF! :-)

FTSE high is @6,950.60 - highest this year is 6875.62.

UKX - i'll have a hunt around too

LOL yeah.

Would be lovely to get through 7,000 and then 8,000.

Im a dreamer.

HOUSING MARKET
forget all the hype on twaddle in the press and worse still, on the NOWT thread

i have rather better than anecdotal insight in both the north east and south east (sort of kent)

in the first, house sales tend to die from about now until the spring, with many unsold properties merely being withdrawn to avoid them becoming "stale"
in any case, a major problem in NE has long been a supply of houses to sell, though selling has not been easy either - peeps with too high expectations
however, this has changed quite dramatically even in the last few weeks

in the kent area, houses in the correct location and realistically priced are now being snapped up almost as soon as they hit the market
it could be argued that this is a "cheap" area for commuters as there are very good road and rail links, which may well get even better in the coming years

Lubbly Jubbly. hope you got it when I posted above.......

not me .... don't even know the company ..... was also out hitting few balls b4 i punched someone's head in!

Cynic thats your fault for not keeping up with this thread. Now up 87% on my capital since Jan 3rd 2013. Normaly knock off in low 80s% or in bear markets in the high 40s%.

Been a very good year not exceptional, the exceptional years were 1984 1999 and 2003 for me.

not sure what would be deemed by "capital input" as working with CFDs means very high gearing of course

Mine all SBs and brokers this year....... sorry did have a cfd with EZJ.

I like SBs more than other tools at moment.

Problem with SBs is that normal investors start to think they have to act different to normal broker holdings.

They dont believe me.

OK spread is larger, but who cares if you have a winner.

Just play it like you had a position with a broker.

s/b is good because it does not suffer cgt but the downside is the time constraints

Indeed indeed but Im always up on that going for the further out contract.

I also know sticky Cyners you do very well with derivatives.

I remember your first 2 years on here where you blew everyone out of the water and thats the truth folks, Cynic was red hot.

I always say this, you never stop learning on the stock market and I have to thankyou for your input in which I have learned a lot. Im so greatful.

Thanks Cyners.

i'm now just old and crotchety :-)

i'll have another look at s/b to run alongside my CFDs

GF
What SB company do you use? I mainly use CFD's or buy the shares if I want to hold for any length of time. I have a account with T1PS from the old day!

Ig Index David.

Cant go wrong. Really helpfull, not only that but they are on twitter and you can interact directly with them their and get things sorted out immediatly.

All you need is a an old banged up pc like mine and you just register.

A lot think they have to have an expensive smart phone........not so.

Brilliant talking to all the big boy analysts from the big brokers.

cheers GF.

I use Capital Spreads mainly as my spread bet provider. And nearly always use quarterly contracts, advantage being a one off charge is built into the spread. I have a rule that if the spread is more than four pips I don't trade that stock via a spread bet. This is rare because Caps generally only allow stocks from Ftse 100 - 350.

The only time I would use daily rolling bets is :-

Day trading Ftse or Dow, which is rare, only one pip spread on UKX and Dow.

When I have taken a profit to early, or been stopped out usually close to a results date and misjudged more upside.


Ideally and this will apply when I retire and if I decide to trade full time. Is to use a platform that allows direct market access. For several years now been quite happy because it suits my lifestyle, to use the above. Allows me to trade shares that I own or otherwise up or down, treat it as a hobby and enjoy doing so. Hope this helps.

Many thanks GF for your help. Will register with them on Monday!!
Have a good weekend everyone!

Thank you also Chris!

Chris C brilliant take on spread betting.

For some reason traders/investors go bonkers when they open a SB account.

Totaly mad.

Use it just like a normal broker account.

OK you get about 8* times rounded normal leverage but it keeps you in control.

Remember this Ill always take a good manger of accounts
than the flyboys like advfn who reckon they hAVE THE NEXT 10 BAGGER
