During this period plenty of you traded the share. Usually worried the sp has reached a peak and will dip again. It may have been profitable trades but was it worth??As they say “the trend is your friend” , stick with it. All my opinions, I could be wrong. But I’m not trading, I’ll stick with the upward trend thank you very much.Good luck to everyone Dr M

Re: Trading update today Eventually this share will peak and the party will cool down for a period of time, it I don’t think we are there yet and not for a while. When the time comes I will sell out completely and wait for the price to settle down before getting back in. I don’t know when that will be though.

Re: Trading update today I’ve traded this share more than 12 times over the past 4 years with some tasty profits banked. At 800p I bought a big chunk and decided to top up every time the share price rises £1. It’s been working a treat for me now the sp is £15.I will hold if the sp drops ie ride out the dips on the way upwards. The sky is the limits for PLUS in my views. No more trading out and in again for me. Just my opinion. Only opinion.Good luck to everyone Dr M

Re: Trading update today Another astonishing trading update, with this quarter being 120% better than the last record quarter, and on its own amounting to two thirds of FY2017!

Re: Trading update today Sold the rest of my holding first thing today at £16 yes great figures but at this level one piece of disappointing news would see them clobbered.Also take note of this paragraph within the update which i didn't like the look ofWe have since seen market conditions return to more normal levels in the last two months. As such we do not expect such an exceptional performance to be repeated in the remainder of the year.We have yet to see the impact of ESMA's proposed changes and our performance could be further impacted by the rate at which customers opt to be reclassified as professional investors.

Trading update today Remarkeable figures announced today & despite a recent return to more "normal" levels expectations for the full year have been increased.Additionally ,after a subdued couple of months the crypto market has stabilised & is recovering & there could easily be a return to the frenzied conditions of late 2018/early 2019 generating additional revenue for Plus.Probably fair to assume that our dividends paid will increase again this year -so happy to be holding in my ISA & SIPP & staying for the ride although it will be interesting to see what The Market makes of the statement.

Re: Sold We are enjoying the same predicament, holding a share which has zoomed to 3x. I have no doubt in the underlying value of this stock, but it does make you think you should be doing something ... how about a stop loss? Except the last time I did that someone was watching and swooped.The possibility that someone will come in with a £30 buyout offer stronger than the stock slumping back to £9 (is Sh***ie still shorting to 600p?) ... actually that might create a CGT problem. How about shaving off a slice when we hit £15 ... you could always buy back on a dip?For now I will put (another) stop loss on (another) half of my holding.

Re: Sold I sold half in November at well over 100% profit, so my current holding here is better than free of charge.When the price crossed £13.62 my profit level on this one became 200%.So obviously I'm very happy with the performance of this stock, and I believe that is underpinned by an equally good performance of the company.So far there are no signs of the business performance cooling down, as far as I can see. The various regulatory worries seem not to be an issue to the company, which has prudently prepared for them well in advance of their arrival.It could be overbought in the short term, but I don't see anything to take the shine off of the business prospects in the foreseeable future, so I cannot be bothered to trade this one.

Re: Sold Fair call. Personally, I see this going far higher, but as it does (or not!), I sell parts along the way. So, over the last 200p or so, I would say that I have sold roughly a third. I will continue doing this, but will slow down as I still see a far, far higher price as a possibility and so I would not like to miss out on a parabolic move (whether deserved or not).What would lead to such a move? A combination of:- continued market volatility- steady account numbers in current markets- good traction in new markets in SA and Singapore- more license approvals- rerating of SP (I.e. higher p/e)A lot of ifs, but all of them perfectly reasonable in the time frame of a year or two.

ESMA and all that The largely expected retail CFD trading restrictions announced today, welcomed by P500 a very confident and specific response from the CEO who considers they are largely compliant already, can easily adapt where they need to, and considers they will not notice much impact given the strong momentum from the global expansion of business.In contrast IG bleating loudly about how unfair ESMAs restrictions are and warning of a material impact on its business which might take until 2019 to return to growth. So now we know for sure that the bad mouthing of P500 by IG and its brokers Numis was wrong and intended to poison market opinion of a rival. I imagine IG and Numis to be lining up a sponsorship deal with Cricket Australia. Sc*m all of them.The share price chart this morning has been spectacular.Perhaps we can get back to agreeing fair value is probably around £15 and begin to consider what might be the next cycle in the life of this amazing business ... continued organic global expansion with astonishing profit margins, until ...

Re: Placing I certainly wouldn't say freefall - we are still sitting around 5% below the placing price having meandered a bit aimlessly since then.As long as the support around 1020 holds then this still looks to be in a bullish trend despite the shock of the placing bringing the price to current levels imo.It may need the Q1 trading update to get things back moving in the right direction. Market volatility thanks to rumblings from the tangerine dullard and ongoing cryptocurrency movements will certainly have helped matters, if IG is anything to go by.

Re: Placing Shares in freefall not sure why even in a falling market this share should be a safe bit with a decent yield.
