Utrickys agree

many ways to skin a cat

JL i spend less time in markets than most investors

i know my prices - put alerts on them - and not really care about the inbetween prices. After all they are the vacuums that dont really need analysis

hence lloyds into the 50's soon

SR not sure theres a right or wrong approach,its about what's right for u isn't it? If like me you have another dimension to your life and have a paid job and don't need to trade to pay the mortgage reinvesting dividends is a sound strategy imo.

SR
U have a point
Why would anyone stay glued to a screen all day long?
CF make ur choice and act on a daily /weekly basis

You just get to enjoy the pain longer as an investor

Loool

In summary pierre

If you don't know what your doing. ..a trader with 10000 and an investor with 10000 will , in High probability. .lose the same percentage. Just over different time-frames

So really its a case of..'either your good or your not'

If not, it won't really matter which you are

The stats aren't with you sr.

Traders overall lose. It's just that we only have the few winners on advfn.

.....

You have been misinformed

It's true to say maybe 80-85% of traders lose. But the figure is the same for investors.

They just window shop it better.

Example:a large majority of brokers will be claiming investors won... even if they only gained 1% etc. Not correct. In true inflation terms. . It's a loss

Had a chat with a broker friend about this. And whilst he couldn't speak for all brokerages... he could say that 90% of investors truly lost..in his opinion. Over time

I reduce that to say 80%. Same as traders

But if you add the typical benchmarks. .90% probably closer to the truth

LLoy has been unfortunate with things which couldn't be forseen. Like gordon brown forcing lloyds to try to bail out the financial system before the government had to (by which time lloy was knackered. Then as it recovered, the gov decided to hammer the bankers (but really only hammered lloy shareholders) by making lloy pump billions into the financial system via the banking regulator determiing that almost every customer should get several k compensation for something or other.

And through all that time, lloyds have still made profits. From now on, I'm hoping there'll be no more lloy bashing by the government, and lloy profits won't be simply given away to all and sundry.

I prefer vegas for my gambling.

They the shareholders from 2006?

[pierre oreilly] 20/12/2019 18:18

well ctr, for a while i've suspected you're just another handle for minnie, and i am now more convinced of that fact. The occasional attack on minnie from you is to be expected from a ponty polly education. The first time was when you, for absolutely no apparent reason about a month ago, launched a foul mouthed attack on me, to which i didn't respond. And so it resumed today, while backing up minnie. Needy, thick, quick to descend to the gutter - not many have those characteristics on here. Whether you are a doppleganger or not doesn't really matter, you and minnie are, or might as well be, one and the same.


Anyhow, a poor day for lloy, but to be expected as traders take their hundred quid, while proper shareholders are, imv, in for a bounty here over the next few years.

Monumental post xxxxxy,spot effing on Sir! More to come I suspect with Crankie n fatty taking up the slack that Sourbry & Steven Bray have vacated. These pillocks just don't know when they're beat, they have self awareness by the thimble full!

‘An absolute disgrace!’ SNP slapped down for telling journalists how to interrogate Tories

NICOLA STURGEON has been condemned for sending correspondence out telling journalists how she wants them to interview and interrogate Boris Johnson’s Tory Party.
