You have mentioned all this before and various members have replied to you about each. We can't do day trading as that wouldn't work. We can't do drip feeding as we are a Share Club. We have no funds to invest as we just invested it all.Boro Boy wrote: ↑Sun Mar 22 2020 12:05pmBut what was/is the answer to the question?garindan wrote: ↑Fri Mar 20 2020 9:35amHelpful as ever.Boro Boy wrote: ↑Fri Mar 20 2020 9:31amIf purchasing before (after taking all the factors into account) was a good idea, apart from the price, what has changed for members to start talking about selling?

Unless you want to develop a day trader approach you must be looking at the underlying factors of the company/fund you are investing in and unless those factors change dramatically I would have thought you would continue to hold or continue to purchase. If you were making buying and selling decisions purely on price, well you may as well have a computer make your decisions and I believe your portfolio would then have the potential of becoming very volatile.
Now is a time for planning to buy, surely, as assets are stripped back to basics and not just lead by market sentiments. Shares are in "Sale" mode. Perhaps consider drip feeding monthly payments into chosen share/s with sound fundamentals which are going cheap rather than committing lump sums if you are unsure when the "bottom or turnaround" of the markets will happen... (as it surely will!)

Hence looking at selling some shares and consolidating in fewer shares with greater potential for recovery etc...

Buy low sell high doesn't work as well the other way around...!!!

Still unanswered...
I swear, your ideas are not the same as your words... The talk is all about the study of the sound potential investment but you now say that is all out of the window and you want to sell and speculate on the rebound of certain shares. What next... waiting for horse racing to return and putting it all on the 4:30pm at Doncaster no doubt!!!garindan wrote: ↑Sun Mar 22 2020 9:01pmI swear you don't read the posts in the tread or you just ignore them.

So for instance, if we had sold a load of the shares we owned and put it in Ramsdens last week at 80p a share, we'd have made ~40% back in two days, which would have covered a very large chunk of our loss from the outbreak and we could then have reinvested. You do kind of profess you know all the answers and cannot possibly be wrong. I'd suggest you'd have been wrong on this occasion and the idea of selling in the bottom of a volatile market isn't as stupid as it sounds. Of course it is bold and riskier, I accept that, but it doesn't need the wft emoji - think before you type is my suggestion and consider some other viewpoints
