There are two things you can guarantee on bulletin boards :

1) Half the punters will predict rises, half will predict falls.

2) Those that are lucky enough to get it right will crow about it.

Ball Deap... "for obvious reasons"..???

I hope you guys took up that advised short trade on the DAX I told you about 2wks ago. It is getting killed along with EU banks for obvious reasons. More to come.Be aware long trades, realism is a hard knock on a walk home on a dark night. Good luck to all.

if you looked at the past barc chart there always seems to be a dip in mid December. then a general rise to results end Feb.

may be repeated, who knows. Anyway I bought some at 215 on the chance, which is close enough to the previous lows of 2014

fu-ked again

[smartypants] 11/12/2015 08:56

A year or more's gains gone..
I bet there is some one out there who has managed to think up a good reason as to why this might have happened ????..no?
Simply programs reacting (over reacting) to other programs while the programers look on and wonder why its happening....well it is for no other reason then you programed it to happen you A holes !!!!!!

so much for Xmas rally...not this year.
all is finished, the shorters killed the goose so no more golden eggs.
The ftse is just above 6000 and might go below that.
All messed up this year , the economy in the country is screwed up with
the austerity measures.

We have finished as a country of prosperity.

Barclays Stockbrokers are off-loading investment clubs to The Share Centre. They obviously think we're more trouble than we're worth.

They haven't gone public with this yet, but you can get a hint on their web site here:



where they say :

This service is currently under review and we are unable to accept any new Investment Club account applications at this time.
