Gymratt. Cheers. I am happy to hold as too many times in the past I have sold early, IAG, GLEN, (I shudder the last one - had 90,000 shares and sold at about 120p with 20% profit)...
Anyway, the hard bit is finding the right share at the right time, I will let the share price do the work now - and note to self - do not sell early!!!

Good for you , Hammy! I'll also just sit on my shares in my ISA but probably take some off the table in my trading account at 250p ish.

[hamhamham1] 04/7/2018 11:27

Who knows, in a few years (post 5G / fibre blitz) maybe the share price goes to 500-700p???
I am more than happy to hold and see, plus get nice divis along the way.
Lovely Jubbly.

The latest director buys look to be judicious.

£2.30 is not greed, its the time to get in as the fund managers will be doing at that level.

[oakville] 04/7/2018 10:58

It feels so good averaging up for once !

[mbmiah] 04/7/2018 10:41

My sell target was 225-230; but this looks like it's going somewhere beyond. Greed is setting in I'm afraid

Gaining REAL momentum now. 240 next stop imo

[hamhamham1] 04/7/2018 09:21

Wolansm. This may even call for a "Yabba Dabba Dooooo!"

As Fred flintstone said I like it I like it

..and completion of the first mini bowl on the chart.

[hamhamham1] 04/7/2018 08:39

Once it smashes through the 2nd resistance level of 225.55p then it's onwards and upwards to 250p+ area.

"Shares of telecommunications companies rose as traders rushed into defensive sectors ahead of the Fourth of July holiday break, eager to protect against further developments in the trade dispute between the U.S. and China."

Bad news for any prospective new investors in BT, due to the share price recently rising to 223p the dividend is now returning less than 7% (it's only 6.9% at yesterday's close).
Moreover when the share price reaches 261p then the divi return will be just 5.9%.
But worse is to come because when the share price hits 314p then the divi return drops to a mere 4.9%.
I for one, intend to keep strong throughout these testing times ;)

tradejunkie2: could you elaborate?

[tradejunkie2] 03/7/2018 17:22

That's beyond the level4 target.

Sanks.

[montyhedge] 03/7/2018 16:58

Next trading range for next week is 235-240p. In my view.

[fidgas] 03/7/2018 16:40

20,000,000 shares bought this afternoon at 15:47 @222.65p. Am I reading that right?

[hamhamham1] 03/7/2018 15:54

Toon. Yep. Hopefully stabilizing but it's still early doors.
I would settle for favourable report and even slightly disappointing Q1 as the report will set some of the future path.
Then once we go ex div in early August they can then soon after announce the new CEO hopefully. (And that could recoup the ex-divi share price reduction).
Fingers crossed but have seen this kind of turn around in share price many times following a few years of bad news. But what do I know eh?

[toon1966] 03/7/2018 15:48

….and of course the Q1 trading update. Solid performance will help!
