Well done.

afraid not ! im relaxed about my sale really - in last december at 642 and out at 801 recently will do me - always good to bank a profit, even if you leave some for the next man.

Yes - do you have any HSBA by any chance, maurillac? If you could drop those, it might be very helpful.

[maurillac] 08/5/2014 09:42

going well - anything else you want me to sell ;)

Seems like bid speculation at 826p.

[wad collector] 08/5/2014 08:39

816 hit my sell limit for my trading stake ; 6% in four weeks after costs looks like easy money to me.

Not being a chartist - seems to me that if it can hold on to £8 till closing bell next stop is around £8:75 achieved in 1999 and if it passes that the record price is around £9:50 achieved in 1998.

But then who knows. As a non-chartist I cant see anything.

[philo124] 07/5/2014 15:30

Well done, I was wrong; I do hold but it's a little beyond my understanding to buy more at these levels.

[lord gnome] 07/5/2014 12:00

Looks like 'Heads I win'. We have a breakout rather than a double top by the looks of things.

[wad collector] 07/5/2014 11:25

With the benefit of the retrospectoscope , Oh no it wasn't.

Finger creeping to the sell button , but not my main holding...

[philo124] 07/5/2014 08:39

I think that's the top for a while.

[lord gnome] 07/5/2014 08:29

Double top and back to 750? I wouldn't bet against it. But then again, I wouldn't bet. This could go either way.

[redartbmud] 07/5/2014 07:51

Each way bet?

[wad collector] 06/5/2014 22:16

Could be time to trade out again those I bought at 761 three weeks ago. Never know , might get them back before Xd 23p on 19th june.

[maurillac] 06/5/2014 10:16

very probably, as i sold at 801 last week !

Looks like the dip down to 750 was just a technical correction. Back to highs. Onwards and upwards.

[wad collector] 05/5/2014 23:23

See you in Hell then . Might be crowded though.

[fangorn2] 01/5/2014 13:30

Concur with what you say..Was just joking about the trader bit. Tend to do similar as yourself.Profit on the volatility where I can but maintain a holding long term.

[wad collector] 01/5/2014 13:02

More of a investor than trader , but I like to profit on market illogical volatility occasionally.

I take your point about Ofwat , but with a General Election on the horizon , further political posturing about utilities seems likely to me.

[fangorn2] 01/5/2014 11:17

I don't mind which way it goes ; if it drops I will buy more , if it rises I will sell some!What I don't like is a static share price , though at least the compensation here is a reasonable yield.

Don't say that - you might be deemed a trader and burned as a heretic :)


Suspect your wish will be eventually fulfilled.

Really not sure. Holding up well. Wasn't the Ofwat pricing regime more or less agreed and discounted by now? Finger off the pulse in that regard.

Waddy, I was rather hoping it'd be tickling 740/650 :)

[wad collector] 30/4/2014 18:20

Have a look at the boards suggested above - I agree - try just filling in "confidential" and see what happens.

Good to see the £8 barrier being tickled again.
