None. i just go on barclays for live quotes, google finance for 15 min delay graphs/overviews, and iii for gossip. I just have an android phone.

my phone does

An upward punt I hope! I also work full time ....

See the share price graph for an idea of when it was. I looked into this before investing and concluded that it wasn't a big deal given that the share price didn't react negatively, and I think he HAD to sell some due a divorce settlement or something. You in BPC? If not then the current price is pretty good IMHO (DYOR!). I bought on this dip but too high i retrospect. I asked myself what I thought the price would be, conservatively, in 9 months, and concluded 25p.

Thing is, XEL won't have to release the flow results RNS until they have actually finished, as in done the bit where they stop pumping and let the pressure build. My understanding from that Gramacho chap is that this can take longer than the flow period itself, so another couple of days minimum? In the meantime the price will continue going nuts in all directions. I will continue to watch this with xcitement - better than any cinema ticket!

I hope this is the real deal. Also getting Xcited !!1!

ROFL at that iii poster! If in doubt, phone up the tanker lol Panic over?!?!

Ah see what you mean. I generally buy on fundamentals knowing ill be holding for a few months or more, but trying to use technicals for timing. In this share i have used nothing but fundamentals, which havent changed. I wont lie though, its been scary the last few weeks. The could make a series of 24 about this share!

Sold last week. They dont react to news much anyway, just slow trend up. Too slow for me so put money elsewhere. 22% profit iirc, schwipe!

Oh! You realise barclays charge you if dont make a trade in your marketmaster account?! You need a trade per quarter i think, or per 'period' whatever that means.

hi I also use a marketmaster. 12 quid per trade is fine. So what if others offer it for a tenner, barclays have good service this particular share is available in a shares isa, well worth filling one of these. I started investing in summer. 4k put in. Worth 8k ish already 1400 quid in this share. Im not a big deal but like researching these things even for my small fry investments

I dont get what the panic is about. Boat was at the rig for about 3 days then went. This is fine for a flow test in the time available. The boat doesnt need to be there during the pressure building bit, is my understanding. Keep calm carry on. I dont think there will be an rns this morning given the above, but got up to check just in case. Regarding my "sa attitude" i have no idea what this means

I may get flamed for this but i dont really get the hatred of estate agents on here. When the market is rising, they accelerate it, when the market is falling they accelerate it. I see agents as an ally now tbh, and the media is courting these 'experts' on the news. On tonights news they had one saying sellers need to lower their prices to realistic levels - surely good news?

Hi I notice the price has been having a wobble today on no news? Long term holder so not fussed. Hopefully I will have the same attitude to BPC in months to come (when I'm actually in profit...)

Quite. I think michael howard would have won with equal sized constituencies (i may have dreamed this. Cant back it up). Ideally cameron will change the boundaries, get topplled by backbenchers, and Lord Howard will take over what should have been his! ... let me dream!

I stopped reading at peak oil. I personally want higher fuel costs as it makes me relatively more well-off. I dont drive and i invest in oil companies. This will be inflationary, so increases the likelihood of interest rises.

On one hand, there are far more con/libdem marginals than lab/libdem marginals, so benefits conservatives. However, it would create more lab/con marginals. The answer lies in crunching the numbers, and i cant be bothered. Theres a website out there somewhere that lets you plug in numbers, called Electoral Calculus, but this will be redundant at the next election because the boundaries will all change, benefitting conservatives at the expense of labour - considerably so. Too many factors to have a guess, plus sentiment could completely reverse within 4 years.

Not only desire, arg etc as well. Or themselves but that is even more risky. What i mean is, sealion alone is not enough. Someone needs another commercial strike, or 2.

I still think the coalition will last 4 more years, with no votes being more contentious than this one. 4 years is a long time, and voters have very short memories. I love that the very same people singing the praises of european style coalition governments are the people whining now we have one. Oh and i put up with a government i hated for 13 years without smashing anything. Opposition sucks, eh?

BPC is my only long term hold. Massive potential, with risks.

I was in rkh but bailed after flow tests. They need to find more, or someoene elese to find more, for the campaign to be viable in terms of shared infrastructure costs. Relying on Desire does not bode well!

I dont do aim stocks in geopolitically risky places, so would say BPC, CAZA, AVN, XEL, and VOG Caza and avn are steady reliable ones, but avn cant do more than double imo? Xel has already gone up a lot so cant more than triple. Vog is not actually geopolitically safe but it could be worse lol. In terms of risk and upside, i would narrow it down to BPC and CAZA

The question is lacking clarity imo. Lacks definitions and timescales. I see that i'm the only person choosing neither-to-bull, so let me explain my choice. I think the market willl see declining prices for another 12 months or so, but modestly, falling another 10-15%, then a steady rise. I get the feeling 'bears' on this forum think that is a treasonous viewpoint, and that prices surely need to fall another 40% or whatever. I think that is unrealistic, hence my currrent neither status. As for changing to bull, the question says "do you see your self changing from" but doesnt give a timescale, and i think a year is not a long time in this market. Given that i think the price CHANGE is more likely to reverse than accelerate, my choice makes sense to me.

Nope. Its supposed to be going up MACD said so! (Been busy buying into BPC on the big retrace, on credit...)

These share prices are a reflection of investor's expectations of the future profitability of builders, NOT current house price trends. These shares have already had their crash. I traded them (BDEV) at 100p ish, thinking that was the bottom. I was wrong. Still scared to go back in the water.
