TAA! This post was too short, so here are some pointless words

Just replying to myself as it’s nice being right for once :)

Probably already been mentioned, in the 1000+ posts!

But Shelvey seems ridiculously cheap, quite well suited to the new matrix and just back from injury.

I jumped on at 30p today and he’s already 35, but was 40 just before injury when Newcastle were poor and on the old matrix.

Well at least it seems to have “corrected” the market a little. As said, some decent rises ahead of the detail, and I’ve seen 0.3% on top since, so seems to be holding.

I hope this will make the market more logical again

I’ve made 30% on Sterling.

I see it a bit like a stock portfolio, players like Sterling you are guaranteed a reasonable but not exceptional return.

Lower value players have the potential for greater % returns but at a higher risk (so greater potential loses).

Sterling has a beta value of 1.3, lower value 2-5.

Actually worse than that - sold at about 86p or something. At least I only had 140 shares.

Should take my own advice and be more patient!

Me about two weeks ago... “Arthur is doing nothing, I’m selling off at 98p”

FFS

First bonus I’ve not taken part in. Market was too odd for me to pump a load of cash in.

Don’t get me wrong I’ve still got 5 figures in here and I’m not leaving, but I want to watch the market for a while before I put more in.

10% with commission taken out and spreads wasn’t enough to tempt me.

I’ll probably regret it, but I’ve opted for the safe watch from the wings option.

The last one had about a 3% dip after it finished, but massive growth during it.

If that repeats then the smart move is hold, and if you need to sell do it gradually a few weeks after the end as prices recover.

Expect they are think about introducing it as a paid option. The new beta had a stats link I seem to recall.

Mehdi tarini was my best. 10p to 31p.

Shame I only bought 200! :)

That was just a punt from a forum discussion.

Hindsight and all that
