dhm - they've done it over a bank holiday in order to give themselves sufficient time to have all in good working order for today, Monday 28th. That's so we mere mortals are able to get used to the login-in etc., and today see how our account looks - before we need to be actually using it from first thing on Tuesday 29th morning.

Looks like a case of "best laid plans of .....awry".

Their letter 15 August a little bit contradictory - 'moving your account on 28 August' then later on - 'you won't have online access until the morning of Monday 28 August'. So it being a bank holiday I assume in practice they will need the day to complete the move.

Nothing working for me at all - I'll let you if someone switches the light on.

BITCOIN The Biggest Scam In History?

[bernie37] 25/8/2017 17:14

Barclays is battling investor pressure to pursue a spin-off of its high street operations from the bank’s investment banking arm.

It is understood that about a fifth of its shareholder base favours a full split that would leave the two divisions with separate stock market listings. Barclays is in the midst of applying new ring-fencing rules that come into force at the start of 2019. The rules, introduced after the 2008 banking meltdown, stop short of demanding a full break-up.

However, some big investors would like the bank to go a step further and pursue a more radical separation amid concerns about weak profitability and the fines it has received for past misconduct. “There’s a lot of UK investors that wished they didn’t have an investment bank,” said one senior fund manager, who holds Barclays shares.

ADVERTISING

“They hate the idea of having an investment bank with lower returns and volatility. They don’t believe it’ll ever get back to making a return above its cost of capital. But Jes Staley, who became chief executive in late 2015, has broken from the strategy of Antony Jenkins, his predecessor, who sought to scale back the investment banking business, choosing to keep hold of the division. It may even look to expand.

Banks with deposits of more than £25bn must separate their retail businesses from trickier investment banking operations to make lenders safer in the event of another financial crisis.

Share Activity Lifted for Barclays PLC (JO) in Session

AUG 23, 2017 Financial News Staff


Needle moving action has been spotted in Barclays PLC (JO) as shares are moving today on volatility -0.93% or -0.156 from the open. The NYSE listed company saw a recent bid of 16.654 and 173500 shares have traded hands in the session.

Investors might be searching far and wide for the next set of winning stocks to add to the portfolio. Many value investors may be on the lookout for stocks that are underpriced at current levels. Some investors may be looking for names that have the potential to see major growth in the next few years. Picking growth companies can be a bit riskier, but they may have much bigger potential for substantial returns. Other investors may be interested in finding companies that provide stable returns and pay out a solid dividend. Investors may even choose to piece together the portfolio with stocks from different categories. Having a diverse selection of stocks is typically recommended for longer-term portfolio health.

Digging deeping into the Barclays PLC (JO) ‘s technical indicators, we note that the Williams Percent Range or 14 day Williams %R currently sits at -99.64. The Williams %R oscillates in a range from 0 to -100. A reading between 0 and -20 would point to an overbought situation. A reading from -80 to -100 would signal an oversold situation. The Williams %R was developed by Larry Williams. This is a momentum indicator that is the inverse of the Fast Stochastic Oscillator.

Barclays PLC (JO) currently has a 14-day Commodity Channel Index (CCI) of -96.84. Active investors may choose to use this technical indicator as a stock evaluation tool. Used as a coincident indicator, the CCI reading above +100 would reflect strong price action which may signal an uptrend. On the flip side, a reading below -100 may signal a downtrend reflecting weak price action. Using the CCI as a leading indicator, technical analysts may use a +100 reading as an overbought signal and a -100 reading as an oversold indicator, suggesting a trend reversal.

Currently, the 14-day ADX for Barclays PLC (JO) is sitting at 24.68. Generally speaking, an ADX value from 0-25 would indicate an absent or weak trend. A value of 25-50 would support a strong trend. A value of 50-75 would identify a very strong trend, and a value of 75-100 would lead to an extremely strong trend. ADX is used to gauge trend strength but not trend direction. Traders often add the Plus Directional Indicator (+DI) and Minus Directional Indicator (-DI) to identify the direction of a trend.

The RSI, or Relative Strength Index, is a widely used technical momentum indicator that compares price movement over time. The RSI was created by J. Welles Wilder who was striving to measure whether or not a stock was overbought or oversold. The RSI may be useful for spotting abnormal price activity and volatility. The RSI oscillates on a scale from 0 to 100. The normal reading of a stock will fall in the range of 30 to 70. A reading over 70 would indicate that the stock is overbought, and possibly overvalued. A reading under 30 may indicate that the stock is oversold, and possibly undervalued. After a recent check, the 14-day RSI for Barclays PLC is currently at 31.76, the 7-day stands at 17.56, and the 3-day is sitting at 5.54.

apfindley, can you advise if it's possible to spend these bit coins on rent boys?

Which day? You've been spamming that exact same dork message across multiple BB's for 24 hours spanning two calendar days. They are on to you, my old son.




The City of London Police have arrested a man on suspicion of setting up a boiler room in the square mile to persuade people to invest in a non-existent cryptocurrency.

The man was arrested at 6.30am on Wednesday at his London home on suspicion of conspiracy to defraud and money laundering, the police said.

“The man is thought to be part of a group which allegedly set-up a ‘boiler room’ on Old Broad Street (EC2) which has allegedly been used to persuade people to invest in a cryptocurrency,” the police said.

“Victims were cold called by salespeople who allegedly persuaded them to invest in a crypto currency which does not exist and is therefore worthless.”

I've had about 20 people on here message me today. All Overjoyed.

You see I pointed out the new Plexcoin currency to them.



Many people believed the fake articles about it being a scam, and a troll on here copy pasted my postings as he was angry as he too thought it was a scam.
He was trying to save you all.

However, his actions did the opposite, he prevented you from buying those Plexcoins.

The reality is now setting in, it's NOT a scam.

You can freely visit the etherscan website which tracks all currencies using the Ethereum network.

(and type Plex in the search)

Everyone's Individual plex tokens appear there.
So if it is a scam, it's becoming seriously elaborate to the point it's actually real.

Anyway, apologies have been accepted, and people are now pleased they followed my Plexcoin link and purchased their coins at the early and cheapest stage of sale...
