4 or 5 people said they made money "on here" (this thread) and you find that impossible to believe ?

and what is proof ? if anyone took a scan of any paper work showing profits im sure people like you would then jump to higher ground claiming its edited/fake,

i would like to know why you think so neg/ of the profiting in this thread? it might be beneficial to yourself,

and the 3 users that Thanked you, they should post aswell,

I look forward to it

Be careful. At least one of the posters on here who claims to have bought loads of Lloyds shares is clearly lying. He claims he can buy and sell lloyds shares when the market is closed. :rolleyes:

No, I sold them last night (as I knew results were coming out today), hence the profit,

[FONT=&quot]The Company have announced that as part of the HM Treasury recapitalisation scheme, the Group was required to suspend the payment of cash dividends to ordinary shareholders until the HM Treasury Preference Shares issued as part of the scheme are repaid.

In the meantime however, the Board has approved a capitalisation issue of 1 for 40 ordinary shares for shareholders on the register at 8th May 2009.

Timetable of Events
Dealings commence: 11th May 2009

I have a feeling someone is going to say I should fully understand what that means,but could somebody please explain? :pSpecifically 1 for 40 shares...

Previously they had talked about a scrip issue which is shares instead of cash dividend

At todays prices that'd be like getting 1p a share, it used to be 35p a year

ex-div 8th may

No one person said they'd sold whilst stockechange was closed. This was then attributed to others and they were then outted as liars. I am down on my lloyds shares at present but I made on Barclays and sold when they were at their highest of 116 a few weeks ago, I am also down on my RBS shares.

I do wonder why I'm not allowed to post the on here without fatpig saying I'm lying? I have no reason to lie. I enjoy having a forum to discuss how shares are doing and have found the majority of people on here helpful and polite, certain people have been very ill mannered and resorted to verbal abuse for some reason that I don't know. I wonder what they are hiding?

Back on topic.... bad couple of days!

I'm still in and still hoping that the news about the asset protection insurance scheme will be good. I would prefer that news to hit when I wasn't already 20% down though!

No doubt about it, bloody hairy atm! :shocked: All adds to the adventure though, and I think the asset scheme will be a boost for the shares. We'll see

I said at least one person was lying. You agree that one person was lying. So I was being accurate when I said at least one.

God knows how many others are making up their sharedealings though. The internet is full of some very funny people.

Just as fatpig decided that anyone who had reported as making any profit on any bank shares was a liar? What's all that about? What is the motivation to post negative after negative after negative? Why bother? Why resort to insulting someone who has alternative view? What is their motivation, are they just yet another odd person who needs to make themselves look important via the internet with very little knowledge of what they are on about and go with The Sun headlines for their research

Yes decadent fool said he'd sold when stockexchange was closed and has not informed anyone how this was possible. Maybe if a different tact was tried they may come clean? I honestly don't know, even though I've been accused of being him/her lol :rotfl:

based on his (decadent fool) other posts seems like hes got a brokers account, so im guessing hes referring to market orders being processed 1st thing when the markets open the following day, so for example hes put in the order to close his trade at night but its processed the following day,

i can do the above with MB trading account right now,

anyways i dont see why decadent fool would be lying about profiting he isnt stating any crazy amounts of profits and he has not made the task out to be easy neither is he boosting,

on the other hand you got alot of members saying LLOY is a bad buy because its the safest thing to say at this current time without getting flamed!, at the end of the day if LLOY goes bust thats my 1k odd down the gutter i can live with that, but I'm in it for the long run and fuk the div if i wanted high % div i wouldnt of bought LLOY, and for them that think LLOY is going to bust or drop to 1p why dont you got Short on it,

shooting people down for stating they made a profit is a joke,
