the uk would bounce big time when we vote out of the rotten eu

[christh] 29/1/2016 08:00

A bounce to 190p this week or next week.
Barclay's is the strongest bank in assets and users in the UK.
Always a long queue in the branches.
Hopefully the dividend will rise as promised this time.

No just a normal share dealing account, thanks.

[mbmiah] 29/1/2016 00:50

I take it you're not dealing with an isa account - they are cumbersome, but no tax is charged of course.

[ckafetz] 29/1/2016 00:46

Thanks mbmiah. When I sold on Thursday morning the money went into my dealing account straight away then when the new order was satisfied the money went back out straight away on the new deal. As you say i'll attempt to sell in the morning if I get a good price and see what it does. Just wasn't sure what that Settlement Date meant. Hoping Barclays gets to £1.82 - £1.83 early doors.

If you are able to sell i.e. Electronic or via phone then it's fine - it normally takes 2 days to settle the deal and receive the cash in your account. But if you have surplus cash you can keep buying and selling. Speak to your briker

[ckafetz] 29/1/2016 00:26

Can anyone answer a couple of questions please. They may be simple so apologies.

I bought Barclays shares on Tuesday then sold on Thursday morning for a small profit. I then put an order in straight away after the sale to buy more Barclays shares if the share price dropped which it did so when I got back from work I had a notice to say my order was successful.

Q1. Can I just keep buying selling the same share as much as I like on the same day? There is nothing illegal or dodgy in that is there?

Q2. The contract note I received after my order was filled confirmed the deal date as 28th Jan but a Settlement Date of 1st Feb. What does this settlement date mean? Can I not sell those shares until this date? I was hoping to sell them tomorrow morning if I can make another small profit.

Thanks in advance

Ok maybe 149p!...

[mbmiah] 28/1/2016 23:40

It will drop below £1.50

[barbar7619] 28/1/2016 22:23

Won't drop lower than £150 imo

[daneswooddynamo] 28/1/2016 21:19

Yawn we knew that months ago

Barclays faces £1bn legal action

Barclays has confirmed it is being sued for almost £1bn by deal-maker Amanda Staveley in connection with its emergency fundraising in 2008.

Anyone notice the financials are not participating in the rally off the lows?.


I will check my chart technicals to see where the bottom is.

[celeritas] 28/1/2016 17:32

Property won't crash in the North, unlike the South it's not got out of reach of wages.

[aussiedonnie] 28/1/2016 15:47

DR B, 90p ?

[dr biotech] 28/1/2016 15:42

Just about 40% drop in the last 5 months here. 20% since the new CEO was appointed - guess his £10m investment wasn't his best.

Have to wonder where the floor is.

[2rocketman] 28/1/2016 14:33

Yes I will purchase again if they drop big..alot of people have been paying over the asking price (valuation price) in the last year exactly what happened just before the last crash adding stamp duty to mortgage etc.. Imagine if the interest rate starts to move against some of these debt ridden people!
