@NewUser68854 said in Return to the Index:

Hi everyone, after a 12 month sabbatical I have returned to the Index! I had a good spell last time and made enough profit to pay for my season ticket! Compared to some on here I know that’s quite small!

Anyway last time roughly 100 shares moved the price of a player by 1p, is that still the same or has this changed and if so how many shares are equal to 1p

My plan is to reinvest my profit made last time so I am effectively playing with my winnings not my own money and going on from there

Any tips that you can share about how things have changed and maybe the best way to build a portfolio would be much appreciated

Happy trading everyone

Welcome back. You're not a new user but probably feel like one after a year away. Change your username please to one that says a little about yourself.

A few months ago quite a few on the Index was thinking about leaving or derisking their holds in FI as many were see red throughout their ports and the platform was not making any sense anymore. It had become a flippers (IPDs) paradise. PB wasn't relevant on the platform anymore. FI was raking it in. The main thread where traders were venting their anger in a reasoned and controlled manner was shown to Customer Service and they promptly deleted the thread, siting GDPR reasons. There was only a couple of posts which revealed names of Customer Service and conversations with them. All they had to do was remove the offending posts, but they took down the entire thread! FI wet their pants.

To their credit, FI responded by launching a deposit bonus and then increasing MB/PB dividends by 50%. It appears FI are planning to move the platform more in the direction of PB in the near future.

Rongier was in the red a few hours ago. Cheers, EJ!

@Chickenman said in Xmas bonus - anyone received this?:

Someone I know received it. It said it was because they hadn't traded for a long time. Basically to entice them back.

That makes sense. That's why I didn't qualify.

@MrWh1te said in On Logging on to Port - Did Anyone See a Pop-up Reminding Them of the Draw for the Car?:

@Londoner I did

Thanks - it must be a final push to get traders to buy.

Just checking whether it was targeted as with the Deposit Bonus offer (not offered to me).

@janner73 said in Liverpool's March To Champions League Triumph:

@Dalien-Smith I'm not sure he is a wide player. If you look at his heat map (and stats) for Salzburg there's one Liverpool player he's very similar too - and it's not Mane or Salah but Firminio. He can probably play anywhere along the front 3 but I think he's the long-term potential replacement for Firminio.

After I watched the match I was thinking that he was very similar to Firmino, too.

The sell-off of Minamino is taking pace. He's now £1.70.

£30 for me. 16 months. Used to have a 5-figure port but down to 4-figure since November.

@Dan-The-Man said in Who from the forum do you want on the HWAH podcast? 🎙:

My usual fee is £3,000 per appearance but for my FI forum brethren I'd be willing to trim that down to £2,999.

At that price, @IRISHFI should bit your hand off!

@Kemo20 said in £1k to deposit on 1 player who you choosing and why?:

Looking to put another £1000 into my portfolio right now 1 player is screaming at me but would love to hear the community’s thoughts on what they would do and why? Any opinions appreciated!

Luca Pellegrini. Italian left back. Plays for Cagliari , on loan from Juventus. Promising, skilful defender, ball winner. Only 20. You've said you prefer a def or mf to balance your port. Only 71p. 1000 shares would cost only £710, leaving you nearly £300 to top up other players in your port.
