| Group description: |
This group nominally covers the whole of Scotland – although we are also open to members from wider afield. The focus of the group will be on ‘Technical Trading’ rather than Investing. Importantly, we understand that many people do both longer term investing and shorter term ‘technical trading’. Of that mix of styles this group will focus on ‘technical trading’ – so you might expect us to have conversations such as:
Swing Trading, Stop Losses and Position Sizing, Chart Patterns – Cup and Handle, Breakouts, Springs, Flags etc, Support & Resistance, Indicators, Price Targets, Positive Expectancy, Trade Management, Trading Systems, Trade Ideas and Evaluation, Trade Planning, Leading and Lagging Sectors, Leading and Lagging Participants within Sectors, Trade Journals, and the ‘Tools of the Trade’.
The majority of the group have both longer term investments and carry out shorter term trades, too. They would term themselves both ‘investors’ with a longer term outlook and ‘traders’ with a shorter term outlook. The group members have broad experience in the markets – including across all asset classes and vehicles (shares – companies, trusts, ETFs, funds; spread-bets, CFDs, Options, Crypto). However, most of the group are predominantly interested in equities within the context of a portfolio.
Although some members are highly experienced traders that is not true of all and experience level should not be seen as an impediment to joining. So, if you don’t know who Richard Wyckoff was, or why Fibonacci is even more relevant today than in the 11th Century – don’t worry! Every day is a ‘school day’ for us all – Mr Market makes sure of that! |
I am the beneficial owner of 18,034 Bacanora Lthium shares (held at Barclays Stockbrokers as nominee). After reading the campaign letter from BIG, I instructed Barclays yesterday, the 3rd November, to take no action on my behalf. I think our Government should recognise the importance of lithium (not to mention many other rare and vital elements and compounds), and refuse to allow this takeover to precede to fruition, unless, of course, our politicians are as naive and short-sighted as Bacanora’s Board of Directors. Meanwhile, it is the likes of Xi Jin Ping (just call it the Communist state!), not the “independent company” known as Gan Feng, which will control Bacanora’s present valuable resource – and investors in the western world must accept some of the blame for this unacceptable situation. They did not stump up the relatively modest sum to complete Bacanora’s funding plan, when invited to do so.
