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! |
So the final step in integration is to have seperate websites?
Au Contraire, Julian: the new SIGnet website, when complete, will be a subdirectory site of the ShareSoc website, but accessible from http://www.signet.org.uk, as well as from http://www.sharesoc.org/signet. That will make it much easier to maintain.
I hope you would agree that the new SIGnet homepage, already at https://www.sharesoc.org/signet/ is a big improvement over the old one at http://www.signet.org.uk/. We are working hard on completing the rest of the new subdirectory site.
Best,
Mark
Please tell me the completion date for the websites.

Hi Colin,
Completion date is largely dependent on Ray and I completing reviews and copy, i.e. our time. Was hoping we’d be there by the end of this month but June is now looking more likely. Work is advancing. The “about us” page is now complete – but with some possible further copy changes from Ray. Work on the Newsletters page is well advanced.
The design for the Groups page has recently been approved and it’s now in the hands of our development contractor to create the webpage.
Best,
Mark
