Trading the stockmarket (NO Referrals)

Yeah, i think my only concern when i was looking was that there seemed to be quite a few opinions that Blue Prism had sat back and not invested much into R&D, which is something they kick started again in 2020. Presumably in an industry like this, your R&D needs to be market leading to keep you ahead.




EDIT - Is there anyway on T212 to see information like Market Cap/Share volume etc? I know they're called Trading 212, but i can only see short term movement information. It's annoying having to go off looking elsewhere when you just want a quick glance at something.

Can someone explain with t212 why it says that to set a sell limit I have to have the equity to do it first and then doesn't let me?

I'm looking to sell 20 gme shares at no less than 483. Won't let me set up the limit.
 
I see T212 are allowing trading of GME and AMC agin.

We’ve now enabled the trading of GameStop & AMC Entertainment which was initially restricted by our execution intermediary. However, we’d like to warn you about the high risk of lengthy execution disruptions for both BUY and SELL orders caused by the extreme market activity.

I do wonder what the fallout is going to be in the upcoming weeks/months...
 
So if the hedge funds can reset their shorts by selling to each other and driving the price down like they did yesterday, assuming the majority of retail hold on does it not become a war of attrition.
I'm sure Ive just talked a load of ********.

Balls, i'd been following Argo recently as they were hovering around the £70 mark for a while and i was looking at moving into them before the GME madness, they've jumped 30% today!

@Gibbo you still in?

No mate I got out this morning, had a limit sell at 90p which got triggered, so very happy as I'd manage to average my cost down to just under 75p. It could go back to £1.40 but I like banking profits and will just monitor it for any future dips.

I nearly got back into AMC yesterday when it was really low, never did but if I had wanted to T212 would have said NO, ah well, average my Corsair down to just over $38 now, hoping it has another push north before earnings for the third time lucky on it, its ok to day trade it as well.

Totally failed though by forgetting about WD earnings, 10% up in pre market, woulf of been a safe bet to make a couple grand.

I tend to only focus on 2-3 shares at a time.

Bought some DE GME this morning for just over 290 and sold it at 340 so yeh I'm not exactly a Millionaire but I'm enjoying making 50 quid every now and then :D
 
Possibily, just need to see what happens.

Seems some fairly big names are publicly backing GME too

I don't trade shares anymore. That's because the industry I work in is heavily regulated and there is far too much red tape and process to do so. I would also have to hold the shares for a minimum timeframe which means it's too risky for bets like this. I heard about Gamestop yesterday and I've been reading/watching a lot on it. It's fascinating. Good luck everyone. Here's hoping it works out for you.

Similar thing here. Due to the other half's job, both of us and our immediate family aren't allowed to do shared trades. Shame, as I think this is both fascinating and hilarious.

So, the day for some of the shorters is today, so we need to hold to screw them over, then sell next week once they're screwed?

My understanding wasn't that today was about the shorts it was about the options. Both weekly and monthly options expire today and with a lot of them likely to be "in the money" that will create a lot of pressure for shares to be provided to people who want to exercise the options

I've read there is no expiry that is the agenda being pushed to panic people to sell today.

For those wondering if the squeeze has been squoze yet, there is a handy website:

It's tempting to buy into the GE version to take advantage of what i assume would be a big jump at opening (even after the pre market increase)

Though there's something still holding me back!

So you work in FS correct, is it for a bank? If so - unless you're on the Private side and not dealing with your company shares, you should be fine. However, if you're client facing and thus get privileged information - its a no go :)

Same here, not really wanting to put more into something which could be all rubbish :)

Could be any firm where having an interest in a company is a problem. MoD, Intelligence Services, etc.

If you work in IT for a financial institution such as an investment bank, broker, etc, you will also be restricted.

She does. In the control room. She gets all the confidential gossip that she can't talk to anyone about. :D
