TW right back on its 50 day moving average this morning, which is the buy signal for me.


Runwaypaul ... interesting post but seeing as TW has stress tested a 5% return of net assets each and every year against a 30% fall in volumes and 20% fall in house prices then you just might be a smidgeon too optimistic expecting 40p

seems that most of the building stocks are slipping again today even though FTSE improving a little !!

[arja] 14/9/2016 08:16

will have to be really patient to get at that price ! ( smile ) .

waiting patiently for a 40p entry here,atb.

The average UK house price has climbed by £17,000 in a year, continuing a "strong" run of growth, according to an official report.
The typical property value was around £217,000 in July, marking an 8.3% year-on-year increase, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) said.
Property values have also increased by £1,000 compared with the previous month.
While the 8.3% rate of annual growth is a slowdown compared to a rate of 9.7% recorded in June, it continues "the strong growth seen since the end of 2013", the report said.
The average house price in England now stands at £233,000, while in Wales it is £145,000, in Scotland it is £144,000 and in Northern Ireland it is £123,000.

certainly BWY has recovered well but TW is a laggard of late . it might have it's day soon !

It still wouldn't stop him giving us a minute by minute commentary on the obvious.

[grannyboy] 13/9/2016 11:52

What no lighting, should go out for a walk with a brolly if i was YOU..

[arja] 13/9/2016 11:32

know the feeling cc2014. . I have taken a chance by buying RIO and S32 on aussie market and a bit concerned and hoping for a strong dow later today . Building stocks
have all come off after a bright start but maybe a recovery in afternoon although no sign o it yet ! good luck - thunder here in Bournemouth !

[raffles the gentleman thug] 13/9/2016 10:02

You are looking "glass half empty" cc2014. Fed comments yesterday were pretty monumental in the scheme of things and very supportive to market recovery even if we can't see that in the UK.

A very frustrating morning. I have a number of trades I was planning to close this morning as I expected a decent rise this morning. FTSE still falling as I write. Waiting for it to break today's downtrend line whenever that will be.

[arja] 13/9/2016 08:21

the dam DOW is retreating again and taking UK market with it !! Dow rules and what a pain that is at times !

[arja] 12/9/2016 21:11

wow - DOW almost recovered all the previous day's loss at one point . Builders should have a bouyant start tomorrow !

[arja] 12/9/2016 16:02

BWY is certainly a good one to trade as fairly good trading range. maybe TW is better just to hold !

[gbh2] 12/9/2016 13:46

I expect to be in profit on today's buys by the end of the week :))

[arja] 12/9/2016 13:45

looking that way and futures now 18014 ! But of course the physical market can sometimes take a different view and need to see what happens from 2.30pm !

[cc2014] 12/9/2016 13:42

FTSE down 100 and TW. only down half a percent. Tells you we are in a good trade if ever FTSE finds some balls

[arja] 12/9/2016 13:00

CC2014 - dow futures has taken off in last 10 minutes and hope it continues - 18030 is chart resistance.

[raffles the gentleman thug] 12/9/2016 12:01

Its all a call on Leal Brainard's words at 6.15 cc2014 - but think US market rallies into that meeting myself

[cc2014] 12/9/2016 11:58

Dow being called down another 150 from Friday close. I think that's far enough and a bounce is due. Bounce may not kick in until after we have closed.

[arja] 12/9/2016 11:44

picking up at the moment but much depends on a dow recovery later I suspect . hard to say yet if the short term downtrend is over but probably 140 is worst case scenario. Let's hope for a dow recovery from it's 17900 chart support .

[terminated] 12/9/2016 11:41

Had to buy a few more, I never thought we'd see this level again except on bad news. I could kick myself really, I told myself time and again after the big rises late august the market would cash in, and so they did.

[arja] 12/9/2016 11:17

jugears - fair enough and it is a sound strategy . I do not watch screen all day but
try to look for an opportunity to make money on a volatile day as for exampke when the DOW tanks or rockets and very few stocks do not react to that . I use charts and look to trade if good risk/reward ratio using CFDs as I hate to give the CFD or spreadbet comoany too nuch commission ! I do have a small stake in TW .

[cc2014] 12/9/2016 11:08

I'm feeling cynical this morning so expect the market to stay down here for as much of the day as the city boys can manage it while they collect their stock cheap.

Then in about 3 days time all the upgrades will come flying through
