Jim, whilst the other posters are technically correct about 244, look at the chart and see its initial trajectory.
A limit or buy will only occur within set parameters, often set by you. If your broker hasn’t asked you to set them, then if the price flies/drops rapidly through your ask, it won’t be completed.
Another thing to watch is the spread at opening, you may have missed out because the first 15 minutes spreads can be nuts. I’m of course NOT discussing the market spread, but what your broker spreads. |
Just as an aside
Way back held shares in Esure and had left a sell @247 the night before the Bain bid landed in the morning .
The broker took me out @'267' which I thought at the time very decent hence willing to forgive the odd lapse.
Difficult enough as it is |
Ok thanks again as I said had left an offer 2000 shares @244 but didn't get paid.
Its not the first time and it won't be the last just frustrating.
Swings and roundabouts
It could well work out for the best just happy we broke the 233 level but boy is this market muddled.
Have a good one |
JJ - for info, LGEN opened yesterday at 246.50p - the 3 month high.
See . |
JJ,
Yes LGEN did get above 244p yesterday if you look at the trades data on ADVFN at the very beginning of the day. |
Ok thanks very much
Still hopeful of achieving my buy levels but might have to wait a while longer
This MNG and Abdn seem to be lagging both Lgen and Phnx which have been showing a bit more impetus of late.
After wallowing in the doldrums nice to see a bit of optimism hopefully will get bit more liquidity in run up to Xmas.
Caution still prevailing though for me will await correction
Take care |
Don't think it did, JJ. The site has a max price of 202.3 for today. I gather your shares are still in your account?!! |
Just download the trades and sort them in excel - simple. |
Again I take an opposite view
Can I ask did lgen get bid up to 244 this am as had left a small sell there but nothing doing.yet I am seeing 246 as being paid
Thanks |
I suspect some cash has gone from here into lgen,I know some of mine did. |
Explains the drop then this morning but clearly shows the upside here too.
Good luck all 👍🏻 |

This Labour government is establishing a clear narrative built around three cornerstones of doom:1. Tax the people as much as possible by any means possible, including more stealthy methods such as fiscal drag.2. Push business as far as possible, even to the brink, with ill thought through taxes that will absolutely stifle growth.3. Craft a narrative for re-entry into the EU probably ultimately based on a "we have to do it to globally survive" argument (as a result of number 2).It's Labour, it's tax and spend. At the end of it will be another much larger post it note for the next incumbent. |
I think Bailey is inept, but look at the team in Parliament, they've quickly talked the country into recession. Setting the bar low to fail, they've accomplished said low bar and continue to set it lower. |
Good perspective this. I agree. Especially with baileys economic doom comments. |
From the graph, one assumes ABDN has most upside and AV. The most downside.... Assuming they all keep roughly the same dividend payments. |
Looks like divergence and convergence to me. |
Time to wheel this out again :- |
I hold all 3 and there is often a degree of divergence. Hope that helps. |
only if LGEN and PHNX, also fall.
All three appear to roughly move together.
Hope that helps. |
I fancy this going to 180-190 range. |
Quite right netcurtains. Although By no means certain, it's always odds on we'll get a Santa rally. Add on dips and top slice into rips. Consistently lowering my average price and boosting dividend yield even higher. When I get time in wrong Doesn't matter as I'm getting circa 10% dividend yield on additional purchases. |
Well it can be checked against past performance.
I have not checked - but am aware that between dividends many shares fall and rise.
The idea would be to move money somewhere else in between and take advantage of that
and compound the effect. |
