Dumped my holding in ezj for a profit. It's had a good run but outlook seems uncertain.

Gateside on Friday I was slightly down but beat FTSE by quite a margin. It's the house builders / financials that have lifted my portfolio.

If only we were clever enough to sell the highs and but the lows!

ccr1958,

If you want a thread that is purely to do with WPP, then I suggest you create one. I would happily move this thread to a non EPIC forum if ADVFN would copy across all the posts from this one. I may have a word. However, I do make the odd comment about the company's share price from a technical perspective and remain an investor.

Gateside,

Yes, LTBH is in its death throws. Once we arrive at a clear interim top, I will probably sell up all our larger holdings and just keep the trackers and play the Add & Reduce game. Tempting to keep a few tiddlers like BHRD & AEG just in case they come good but I'm now leaning towards getting rid of everything.

FTSE100 may not perform as well as some tracked indices going forward but I know it well and should be able to predict the channel lows and highs more easily than the likes of DOW, DAX & NIKKEI, for example.

If you had sold on the highs and bought back on the lows.... Then you would have made more money from trading than holding!

Invisage... You must been hit on Friday, it was a bad day on the markets and your fully invested?

[invisage] 14/11/2016 18:07

LLOY also a good performer for me in recent weeks. I've made more money from holding than trading.

[ccr1958] 14/11/2016 17:34

Is this thread anything to do with the company WPP ?

[nasdaqpat] 14/11/2016 17:33

Market perform for our shares today with 37 Up, 20 Down and 3 Unchanged. No trades today and stock level remains at 67.0%.

Good dayHouse builders motoring

Utilities very weak again. Thought these uncertain times would have created a flight to safety? Obviously not.

[gateside] 13/11/2016 18:03

+16.25% for year.Hard to make sense of Markets. Either the Markets don't know what to make of the Republicans being in power, or the controller's are manipulating the Market to make extra money from the increased volatility.

[nasdaqpat] 11/11/2016 23:53

Take your time if you wish...I won't be around until Monday.

[gateside] 11/11/2016 23:35

3 up, 1 level, 20 down.Will update portfolio performance over the weekend.

Grotesque finish to the week and it looks like most of us have fallen hook, line and sinker for the market's initially positive reaction to the Trump coup.

Our portfolio managed to slightly outperform the FTSE100 today albeit with just 15 Shares Up, 43 Down and 2 Unchanged. The week as a whole was more or less flat compared to the FTSE100 with investments Up 00.41% as opposed to FTSE100 which was Up 00.55% (6693:6730). Overall, our assets were Up 00.24% on the week. The calendar year performance table now stands at :-

Gateside~~~+16.25%~~(RDSB hurting!)
FTSE100~~~~+11.46%~~(6242:6730 + 03.64% Dividend Yield)
FTSE AS~~~~+09.85%~~(3444:3664 + 03.46% Dividend Yield)
Videans~~~~+05.39%~~(No real progress)
FTSE250~~~~+04.11%~~(17205:17445 + 02.72% Dividend Yield)

Continuing to Add on weakness particularly to FTSE100 trackers. Stock level now 67.0% from 58.2% at the end of last week...now wish I'd been a little less vigorous.

With DOW futures still solid and cable over 126c to the Pound, this is starting to look ominous for FTSE and dollar earners in particular. Today now looks favourite to be Day 1 of a third principal wave Down and effectively Day 23 of a correction since the Bull high of 7130 on 11 Oct.

Indeed, I think this weakness could continue through until next Jan with my Segmental correction target of c(55.00%) leading to c6392 possibly looking optimistic.

FTSE needs to hold above 6677 and then 6654 for upward momentum to be re-established!

[nasdaqpat] 11/11/2016 09:25

FTSE doesn't want to slip much further if the prevailing trend is Up...@ 6779 it has already given back (72.43%) of 6696:6997.

[gateside] 11/11/2016 06:42

8 up, 2 level, 14 down yesterday.

Currently updating our 60 detailed wave patterns aka 'The Bible' and I've got a nasty feeling that today was the spike up and get out day.

I had decided that the secondary bolt-on was most likely so wanted to hold all 60 companies before selling off most at around about 7200 for FTSE100. However, it may have been better to have sold quite a few that may have reached interim peaks earlier today including ADN, BA, BARC, BLT, LGEN, PRU, RIO, RR., SDR, SHP, STAN & WOS.

Hopefully, those stocks and others will spike up again in a few weeks time!

[nasdaqpat] 11/11/2016 00:02

Nothing in particular, just that they seem to be growing faster than just about everywhere else.

I've also still got my eye on JEMI or BRFI for when the markets correct.

Have you stopped with the Ups, Downs and Flats?

[gateside] 10/11/2016 23:56

I know your no fan of JP Morgan, but JII has performed well.What in particular, attracts you to investing in India right now?

[nasdaqpat] 10/11/2016 23:45

It would be a bad time to invest in American shares at the moment...DOW is now 4 Segments, 308 business days and 22.80% into a Phase that stretches back to 15370 on 24 Aug 2015. Wait for the inevitable Phase correction to more or less complete and then Buy, I say. China may have a bit more upside so I continue to hold FXC which is a SSEC based ETF.

Can anybody recommend a good Indian fund?
