Wow, you aren too bright are you poolfox

Firstly for no apparent reason nurdin called me an idiot, so I was just returning the compliment.

The fact that you dont understand the significance of cryptos says everything. You havent got a clue

Talking about black Plus are in the black 1055 going up!

[poolefox] 16/3/2018 15:23

Oh dear Bobs losing it here,being horrible....pot kettle and black.lol

[bobmonkeyhouse] 16/3/2018 15:18

nurdin. You are an idiot.

poolfox, you do what you want. You have clearly missed the reason for the mention of cryptos, the restrictions on advertising etc etc then you really shouldnt be commenting

Wow, poolefox ....you need to stop and think, maybe go back and read why we are talking about cryptos..

Plus does not rely on Bitcoin its used the crypto craze to attract new customers.As Aakash says Plus would make loads of money if Bitcoin went to zero.Plus are able to adapt to a changing world due to their superior technology and monetize it.

Lol Noujay...dont know where these idiots crawl out from..

Christ looks like it's all over for PLUS500 then, no more growth, they've given away all the cash to shareholders so nothing to fall back on, the founders are bailing because it's run its course, Odey selling down their stake, the ESMA proposals that will destroy what's left, what's next administration then bust?!Think we'd better all sell up today..unless of course you can hang on in there to see the first quarter impact of the "record KPI's" that have lead to the statement that "revenues will be significantly ahead of market expectations for 2018". Think that's what I'll do for now but who knows..you pays your money and takes your choice.

Google announced today that they will ban ads for crypto trading and binary options. If this ban includes #PLUS500 crypto CFD ads, they are going to get toasted. The impact for #PLUS500 would be much more significant compared to the FCA/ESMA regulation.

I think the risk/reward in shorting cryptos around this level looks pretty good for a medium-term trade. H2 2017 had all the positive catalyst anyone could wish for. Very few positive catalysts on the horizon now, instead plenty of headwinds. An alternative short is #PLUS500.

This is going to be an absolute pain for #PLUS500 and other CFD providers where the client in +95% of the cases loses. #PLUS500 might be one of the most compelling shorts among +£1bn companies on the LSE/AIM.

#PLUS500 significant downside from the current level 1) Google banning/restricting CFD ads, 2) Interest for crypto trading is fading, 3) EU/UK regulation for retail CFD coming in 2018, 4) Founders sold 1/3 of their position a few weeks back.

I am just waiting for the ESMA report to come out and do its dirty deed before adding

[bgw1970] 16/3/2018 11:10

I'd be grateful if people could stop referring to 4 April. The company has confirmed no date. It always issues an RNS to do so. Last year the results were issued on 26 April.

[aakash30] 16/3/2018 10:52

Can never be sure but CMC is flat today, IG down 75bps and plus down 1.5% as of now.regardless waiting for 4/4 with great anticipation :)

[bobmonkeyhouse] 16/3/2018 09:45

Nearly there

[poolefox] 16/3/2018 09:36

Ive added more too

[jplus] 16/3/2018 09:28

Doubt that is a reason. CMC share price down today. Good shout to add more though. Cheaper than pre-Q4 results.

[aakash30] 16/3/2018 09:01

News yesterday that CMC is entering the crypto space is likely weighing on Plus and IG. Added more here

[poolefox] 15/3/2018 16:44

Correct Chucko when the price dropped to 7.95 he bought a lot more.I agree I don't think hes actually sold at all its just the share price drop that has reduced the holding,otherwise rebalancing.I ask again how many fund managers hold more than 10% of their fund in one share as Hanbury does,you don't see higher conviction than that

[poolefox] 15/3/2018 16:38

The share price was bound to soften after the founders sold some shares.The fact that they still own 16% of the company which is a considerably large holding especially considering that only one remains on the board.The first quarter has been a perfect storm for Plus500 and this will be proved in results.As another poster stated Plus trades on 5 times forward earnings only held back by concerns over ESMA and FCA legislation for CFDs plus mistakes in the past,another poster working for a Hedge fund manager considers them ridiculously undervalued I expect a major bounce on 4/4

[chucko1] 15/3/2018 16:31

Bob, the converse is true. When it sells off, his holding is reduced (all other things equal) and then he buys. It seems to have been a clear strategy in times when the share price has fallen sharply - evident from the various RNSs over the past three years or so.

[poolefox] 15/3/2018 16:21

Exactly I suspectt its breached the Odey in house limits and they have had to scale back due to in house rules.Its the largest holding in both the Allegra Developed Markets and Absolute Return Fund both run by Hanbury
