Quick 10p to be made on the downside.

LOL adg.

I'm long & SHORT on BARC a couple of times a day, it's my current favorite trading share.

currently short from 199.

If you have missed the Barc train, why pay 198p when you can buy at 188p this afternoon.

Montymuppetman - I can do what you do too (again):

Bears will have to close positions and take phenomenal losses by 2.37pm (and 27.72 seconds to be precise), Barc could go back up to 288p as the excitement hots up (but then again it could be 212p or 232p or 267.78p or 197.34p or 156.89p).

crystalBALLS

you have been calling a short for weeks now (if not months)

I'll give you a bit of advice MUPPETMAN2 - keep calling it short and one day you might just get it right (unfortunately that will be down to the law of averages and not your technical expertise MUPPETMAN2)

Bears will have close positions and taken losses by 2.30pm, Barc could fall back to 188p as the excitement dies down.

WHEN GM GOES BUST THIS AFTERNOON, THE SH*T WILL HIT THE ROOF!!

[crystalblue] 14/4/2009 10:37

DOW futs gone negative, as expected.

[jibba_jabba] 14/4/2009 10:34

JPM results due Thursday, Citi Friday, may be early?
Schw due this week aswell.

[crystalblue] 14/4/2009 10:34

185 close. US will tank...it's out of steam.

[diku] 14/4/2009 10:31

monty...and tomorrow it will open down from the off set...is that your reading?...

[montyhedge] 14/4/2009 10:29

188p close, once bears have squared positions and taken their losses.

[change12] 14/4/2009 10:29

how long for us opens and those shorts will burn.......

[crystalblue] 14/4/2009 10:28

Shorts back on @ 199. Fantastic trading day.

[diku] 14/4/2009 10:26

This will probably finish around 190p today...

[pradip44] 14/4/2009 10:25

seems like the shorts are staying away today is Blap & Co on holiday / off for half term ....

[taffee] 14/4/2009 10:19

psolomons...not if you take off the lehmans exceptional gain....what is also disturbing is the capital they have is free courtesy of shareholders so their margins are way ott

barclaycard are charging 15-19%!!!!!! with a 0.5% base rate?

[ozzmosiz] 14/4/2009 10:17

Disgusting! I aint paying as little tax as possible from now on!

[psolomons] 14/4/2009 10:14
