I just topped up there is some downward risk in mid to short term - but got to be little doubt in long run this s a total bargain. even if dividend was halfed considering where interest rates will be for many years to come.Little down China & others will "do whatever is needed" as EU did and markets will skoot back up again. I very rarely sell shares & always advise buying for very long term - also bought a lot of GSK which seem to be a bargain not much point in day trading - considering stamp tax & spreads impact over long run Good luc

Re: Bouncebackability?? I have done exctly the same as you!! Purely from observation there seems to be a floor under this at c1845, and I reckon a true value is over 2000. Uncertainty is being generated by the BG takeover, but I think the yield is sustainable. So a long term hold for me, and if funds allow I wil get more at c1845. Keep an eye on the chat on the RDSB board. Some seem to know what they are on about. Good luck.
Bouncebackability?? Bought in at what I thought was a reasonably cheap price circa £19.00 but then share price continued to drift downwards, slight bounce yesterday morning then dropped down again in the afternoon and again this morning.Divi is exceptionally good so I intend to hang on.Thoughts anybody on where the share price is going in the short-term?RO
Re: Is this now cheap? Thanks Ms G. It won't be much comfort, but I think you are of great value!
Re: Is this now cheap? I trade this twice daily...using diagonals..however my targets /pivots ..''of no value'' according to the readers on here..so I refrain from posting them..
Is this now cheap? The PER is under 12, and the yield is potentially almost 7%. There is surprisingly little debt to be serviced. The price is at its lowest since late 2010. Will the BG deal scupper this? Is there a large short interest here does anyone know? HSBC is the only broker with a truly negative view here.This seems to be a decent buy for the long term to me, but I would truly welcome any info or comments.
Re: feeling happier Ha Ha typical YP..who more than 2 YEARS ago(yes YEARS!!) predicted the FTSE will jump to 8500....still waiting...NOW.nit-picks over a few pips...chart sell/low today..1982...BANG ON!!
Re: feeling happier One of a very long list of numbers quoted by LG has been 1975 1985 is not 1975 For those of us mathematically challenged 1985 1975 = 10I fail to understand why 1985 is cause for celebration today RDS.A bounced of 1985 as the low Friday 14:35 therefore we know a mildly significant number short term and likely to re-test (this is not LGs predicted 1975Bang On!!!)on the way down it also bounced off 2003,2005, among othersRDS.A has traded sideways for several years passing through and occasionally stopping at 1985 & 1975 many times as it has at an endless list of other numbers Ill be bold here and predict youll see RDS.A at this price again in the future Bang On!!!! ========== ========== ========== ========== ========== ========== ========== ========== ========== ========== ========== ========== ========== ========== ==morn chaps..I quoted 1975..(Strong diagonals)..as a guide IF last results were poor..well it dropped to 1985 on Fri ..near enuff for a BANG ON!![link]
Re: feeling happier Now 1985 is a BANG ON
Re: feeling happier to avoid confusing dampie..1975 & 1985 both 'chart' numbers...dont start saying >>I couldnt buy @ 1985...blah blah)
Re: feeling happier morn chaps..I quoted 1975..(Strong diagonals)..as a guide IF last results were poor..well it dropped to 1985 on Fri ..near enuff for a BANG ON!!
Re: feeling happier Evenin chaps/dampie..Just mapped out the week ahead ..lookin good..I got a spare few mins(dont have time to chat much thru the week)..so U allude to my offerings as 'fantasy trades'..well Im not to concerned wot u think..however IF these were/are fantasy well...excellent entry/exits Nonetheless..however regarding my 'quoted' prices...since 99% of my entries are well in advance..(and I ask again can/does anyone else offer EXACT targets hours/days/weeks in advance?..if so show me WHO) and these Entries are derived from the chart..I give the chart price..for example IF I see a chart/shareprice to drop from 360 to 250 ..wot do I post..do I say buy @ 250(my prefferred)...do I try to calculate the spread and say buy @ 280..do I factor in the stamp duty/fees and say Buy @ 290..u see how this is ridiculous?..same applies to my advanced exits.Now regards to 'live'(actually hindsite) exits/closures...my technique is to disclose to ANY bb immediately(within seconds..even tho Im slow typer) how do I do this..when Im going to sell/bank..I have the closing ticket on one side of the screen and my chart on the other..where ALL the diagonals line up ..that is my intended sell..when it hits. I bang on the close ticket(I dont even know at the time what the price was).I immediately come to the appropriate bb and disclose the number as seen on the chart.Now u may ask..WHY dont u search thru your 'activity' and disclose the exact selling price ..well of course that delays the posting ..it isnt of any value..like I say many providers have differing spreads/costs..whereas I may have sold @ 391..u might say thats impossible my provider didnt offer that..Now...It would be quite easy(and Ive seen this done) where wannabe fantasy traders post delayed entries AND exits by 5..10..15+ mins ..when the prices quoted are nowhere near possible .Anyhows I recognise U just out to wind up..but thought Id explain my general practice re trade/posts...best of luck
Re: feeling happier "u one of them" I have no idea what you mean by that. Maybe you mean someone who can string a meaningful sentence together? In any event, do you think I give a flying fahuja what you think? BANG ON. AJCB[link] of them???In LG world is someone who can see right through the ambiguos contradictory BS in LGs fantasy trade posts
