JRP results v strong for those interested

I do find all this vwap short position stuff interesting. And I respect anyone who trades off that. But it would never feature in my decision to capital allocate to company a or b. Presently I find all listed life companies cheap. I don’t really understand non life companies (although I know quite a bit about them) but it strikes me short term trading anomalies are a bit irrelevant to the overall cheapness

spud, there's probably a few more below public threshold (0.5% from memory)

Also egg shell time just in case a repeat of 08, 09 short selling ban.



edit, having just looked at the short positions (disclosed for 12th Aug) AV. do not appear at all, one can only assume the stock on loan is therefore for other purposes, perhaps market making or derivative activities .

Pencil - Probably got greedy..

For the month of July an average of 3.68% out on loan, not a good day to be closing with FTSE up 150 points.

44p To 350p (my break even price) !

[spud] 12/8/2020 15:43

Yep, I'm a little over £12k down on both.

I hope AV. restore theirs, that cost me just a tad over £3k in lost divi

Admiral joins list of U.K. insurers restoring dividends



Regulator certainly overreacted in bullying insurers into not paying dividends.

[carpingtris] 12/8/2020 13:55

Knowing our luck most likely an asteroid strike!

[action] 12/8/2020 13:52

That is what I am hoping for.

[carpingtris] 12/8/2020 13:36

Looks like a shooting star

Off topic and excuse my ignorance/eyesight, but what is that emoji at the beginning of post 4023?

[milliethedog] 12/8/2020 13:22

Yes, but strong money for me given the amount i'm 'playing' with sadly E.
Interesting tool tho....
Jumped ship @ 304.10p at 12:14 for 12% return over 8 trading days, which i'm ok with

Also same with Lloy @ 29.96; 13% over similar time.


Good luck all that hang on

Real-time ADVFN is the only real game in town which is why it costs about 550 quid a year (depending on discounts)- but to make it pay you need to throw a fair amount of capital around and be prepared to pay attention to it in real-time.

What is amazing is how long it takes many punters to break free from persistently selling the peaks into persistently buying the dips. Its like an oil tanker in terms of behaviour, but we will transition through it.

[milliethedog] 12/8/2020 12:47

Was just curious.
Your recent comments re VWAP have been very informative.
I don't have L2 and just looked at the free options last weekend.
For instance Investing.com charts have a VWAP option.
But at no time today or yesterday has the share price been below it.
Only conclusion to come to is; Free is rubbish.
....even dangerous if you trade off it!

[eurofox] 12/8/2020 12:42

Have some dry powder should the ex div reaction be an over-reaction downwards. How many of the amateur shorts going to realise they are liable for the dividend

[cyberian] 12/8/2020 12:38

Eurofox...agree and looks like we may even hold the 6p extra from the XD tomorrow...I guess many will (correctly)believe that we are still way undervalued, and whatever reaction there is on Thursday will be recovered. Surely the market must be looking for some early moves by the CEO to garner greater value, and working the assets harder.

[eurofox] 12/8/2020 12:36

At 10.01 and 14 sec, trade 2286 for 5000 at 301.57, the VWAP at the time was 302.34

[milliethedog] 12/8/2020 12:30

At what point today has the share price been at a discount to the VWAP Euro?

[eurofox] 12/8/2020 12:23

Not selling, been adding, but only at really good discounts to the daily VWAP

[linton5] 12/8/2020 12:21

Are you selling eurofox? I've been faithful for to long 🤔

[adelwire2] 12/8/2020 12:20

I'll take the bad news of ONLY £3.49.

[eurofox] 12/8/2020 12:12

Looks as if everything that is being sold is being absorbed at or about what ever the current VWAP value is valued at. The days of sell and buy back lower do seem to be numbered.
