Trading the stockmarket (NO Referrals)

Yes I did read that one! Pretty obviously bought in before the announcement thinking a post results rise?

Directors generally (or legally, I'm not sure?) have to schedule buys and sells in advance to prevent insider trading. Not sure how far in advance, or if that's fixed/a variable, but I've heard of 6+ months.
 
Noob question...
I have a little bit of cash in ATVK, still quite new to this whole thing. I am using T212, would I do a Stop Limit as follows if I wanted to sell 50% and ride the rest?
Stop Limit;
Stop Price - .23
Limit Price - .35

Is it correct, if it goes up past .35 I will sell 50% of my stocks, and if it starts going down past .23 it will also sell 50%?

Or I just do a limit sell at X for 50%?

He probably had a post-results share sale scheduled :D.

if he did he wouldn't schedule to be directly after a financial results announcement I would imagine.
It seems most of them sold shares to become millionaires in 2018

Chairman Jason Kingdon sold shares in 2018 for £8.8million. His remaining 8.6 per cent stake is worth £110million.(if he still holds it)

Beginning to wonder if i should try and re-allocate some of the money in my Vanguard Retirement fund. I just used it as a safe place to hold some cash early on, but i fear i've too much in that which could be more beneficial elsewhere. My goals have changed a little as this money was initially intended as a savings pot which could be dipped into as needed but be slightly better than a bank savings account and so i wanted very low risk. However i've not got savings elsewhere and so i'm treating it as more of an investment pot that i can be a little more "loose" with.

(I'm a bit heavy in Prism due to me moving out of Boohoo which included initial investment and profits, in theory it'd be better to reduce the holding slightly, but then i think the hit in fees to sell a small amount just isn't worth it)


Anyone have any fund suggestions i can look into or advise on how to diversify better? I wouldn't mind some kind of exposure to the EV markets, but i've not been able to find any funds specialising in them on Fidelity.
 
Cheers, although difficult to see weightings. It'd be nice if providers had a column option of % of total portfolio. I'm sure HL had that but can't see anything similar in Fidelity.

As i know you use 212 aswell, do you have any place you centrally record your entire holdings? I had thought of Excel, but then i'm having to manually update prices to get current valuations.

Any recommendations of a website where you can create a dummy portfolio maybe?
 
Yeah sorry, not going to share actual values like you have :p. Weightings are pretty even across all the funds apart from ASI Global Smaller Companies, Legal & General UK Index, Lindsell Train Global Equity, Telsa and S&P 500 which are each 2-4x.

And yeah, I've got a SIPP, Vanguard ISA, Trading212 and cash, and I just update the totals of each on or near the 1st of each month. They're all longterm so no need to update them any more regularly or worry about daily fluctations or individual funds/stocks on that basis.

Haha. Quotes like that certainly won't help his share price - blaming the market

These are mine, could probably be diversified even further tbh; I don't actually have much in green tech so that'll probably be the next come 1 Apr.

Have you got your eyes on any green funds? I'm looking at the same and curious what people are using.

I figure i don't have much compared to what some of you guys have so can't be accused of showing off or making myself a target as a rich person :p

Someone (@arknor?) posted a L&G Battery fund i think, but it's not available on Fidelity. Not green per say but should be well linked.

Perfect thanks. I do love a spreadsheet, this'll give me something for the remainder of the afternoon!

It's not a huge issue at the moment but as i add funds to 212 it'd be nice to have stuff in one place.

not me, a bunch of us did have INRG but pretty sure most of us sold at 1400+ and likely are still waiting to get back in.
it's still not bottomed out on a dip yet since jan 06
maybe next monday I take another look

I think the only green energy I have now is D7G https://nelhydrogen.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Q3-2020-Presentation.pdf

They make hydrogen stuff like electrolysis plants but possibly over valued now

I might get back in to BP again.... you might not see them as green but they will be and imo they are very under valued still

Problem with green energy imo in the short term most is over hyped and not people investing longterm, you can probably get a better buy in if you wait with a lot of companies

Petrofac too if you trust it, seems there've been bribary allegations against one member that's been going on for years, with an update yesterday/today but not implicating anyone else.

Looking back i'm not sure what happened in 2017 to cause such a crash in their share price, but with oil looking to bounce back it could be a decent buy.

My dads very heavy on Oil and had taken a hammering over the last year, but seems he's finally now mostly recovered. He also keeps telling me about Sylvania Platinum but everytime i look i think i've missed the boat, yet it keeps flying up!

EDIT - With BP, i see they have 2 separate share classes. It's weird that the B class shares, seem to have increased as much as the A class shares have dropped!
