Key ring bottle opener!

Massively depends on the impact of Opta, potential penny stocks, and expanding the market, if things were to stay as they are then I think by the end of next season we would be seeing players up around £7-8 but if the new features mean greater spreading of portfolios then the opposite could happen with £4-5 , maybe £6 being the top level - either way I am excited!

Given how it is pretty much impossible for the average investor to purchase new futures at anything close to the 25p launch price, can FI tell us what they plan to do to avoid this scenario when introducing Penny Stocks? My fear is that anyone clever enough to have a foot up on us mere mortals by using programs to purchase could in theory hoover up massive amounts of the penny stocks and both make fortunes and stitch up the average investor - in my opinion this is a very serious flaw in the existing process and it should be addressed before launching. I dont have the solutions, but a waiting list approach is my initial thought? (happy to be shot down on that!)

I missed the Q&A last night so appreciate this mornings blog from AC - well worth a read if anyone is unclear as to what is going on and what the plans are

@FI_Tom love it! exciting times

haha you guys! no faith!

@NewUser76802 sounds like you missed out on that stable first however many months, I have been doing it for about 9 months I guess - lately has been very hard to read but I believe it will all settle once penny stocks etc is bedded in - long term I trust in FI

I see today that Lindelof's WAG got him 140 buzz points where as Chelsea failing to meet the £70m valuation for James Rodriguez was worth 20 points, hmmm... thoughts anyone?

With the possibility of Penny stocks being introduced, I wondered whether FI would be able to add the ability to 'Watch' players in the Squad list ahead of this?

@FI_Konrad I dont have 10 in my portfolio (yet!) very likely I will but wont be looking at that sort of thing until after Christmas as want to see if can find the next James Rodriguez (who had heard of him before the last WC!)

Hi everyone,

I haven't used the forum for literally years! Going to give it another go rather than Twitter, let's see how it goes.

So for full disclosure, I have 1000 Pavons, by volume my biggest hold. I had him a while ago and actually made a 100% profit so I'm happy with life regardless. Im looking for some opinions as to whether I increase further or hold as I am.

My belief is that he is in his second year of a loan to LA Galaxy which he is using as a launchpad to get form back ahead of a move to Europe. Im not convinced it will be a Barcelona/Arsenal like what was mentioned before, but with Newcastle having paid a decent amount for Almiron out of the MLS, and with him having been previously linked with a move to Europe I am confident something will happen.

If he returns to Boca I may be stuffed, if he gets a permanent transfer to the MLS, same thing.

All thoughts welcomed!!

Thanks

Can see him featuring again in SF and final if they make it, media will be all over it

Nii Lamptey and Freddy Adu

@NewUser60527 I got in at £1.16 and that was about the quickest I have ever reacted - so frustrating but still hoping that is a decent price

@Christianlacey97 haha I know I just checked his price and wish I had got on board - still never mind! Hindsight is a great thing!

Even though I have been on this for ages now it is still the most frustrating thing trying to get new IPOs at anything like a decent price. I think my tactic of searching for Nabil Fekir backfired as as soon as he appeared I couldnt see him on the list as the search tool is crap and only puts you in the general area of where they should be. What is the best tactic for getting to the buy page quickest? In the extra 3 seconds it took me he was up to £1.60 odd (now withdrawing the money I deposited to get on this)

Awesome thanks ever so much

Hi all,

I have been trying to track down the PB scoring details to understand it a bit better but cant find it anywhere, does anyone have a copy saved or a link I can use?

Thanks in advance

@LukeRiley @FI_Konrad sorry to ask again but any thoughts?

@Jimmeh said in Something to reduce volatility a bit:

Keep increasing spreads (I know this is already being done)

Encouraging 'new money' has to be the key so yes definately on that third point!
