Hope you all enjoy the days and the TA seminar on the 7th. It's a good time I think to hold events just before the usual strong end to the year. More further down.
Our cat crumble has kind of come out of kittenhood and is now heading for her cat teenage years. Basically demanding food at all hours, being grumpy and stays in her room for hours.
She has never shown any aptitude for hunting whatsoever. Until... we were all in the kitchen and Christopher shouted out "It's a mouse!"
To which me and Mrs laughed. "Yeah.. right good one....nearly had us there!!"
"No, it really really is!!! Dad, right under you!"
My laughing stopped abruptly as I looked down a small mouse was by my foot with Crumble staring at it in a high state of excitement.
At this point I am sure you're thinking I would calmly take charge. The Mrs shrieked and whizzed out of the kitchen and up the stairs. I shrieked and ran for the sofa.
In my defence as I got up it ran straight at me and looked like it was heading for up my trouser leg.
Crumble then ran straight for it and began a suspected long torture process.
It was Christopher who took charge. He grabbed some kitchen roll, picked up the mouse, opened the back door and set it free.
Moral of this story? I am a stinking great coward. Don't expect any help from me if things go wrong.
And another admission of my cowardice regarding potentially threatening small animals.
During our trip to the USA me and the Mrs were in a hotel car park. Mrs NT made a cooing noise at a nearby squirrel.
Said squirrel then seemed to turn into a weird squirrel from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. With eyes darting about it moved towards us at great speed.
Both of us ran for it, squirrel on the chase, it chased me round the car twice before with a massive effort we made it into the hotel.
The squirrel looked back at us triumphantly. "Take that you pathetic humans, " it seemed to be saying. So I have to admit I am a scaredy cat, or maybe when dealing with squirrels I just go nuts.
Continuing on an animal theme, the school's fund raising committee held a race evening.
Races were screened, and you could bet on horses using a tote type system.
In the last race all the horses were auctioned and I bought the last horse available...
And can you believe it, the horse won? And so I picked up a day out at the races for two at a top meeting with £30 of betting vouchers, food and all sorts of stuff thrown in...
It was a great fun evening with fish and chips for supper. Nice!
Also went to a poker evening. I'm rubbish at poker as don't have the concentration for it and quite honestly I get bored with it pretty quickly. Still I came fifth out of nine. So not too bad!
Went to see a kids film with Christopher - Nativity 3, Dude where's my donkey.
This is a total ass of a movie. Horrible from start to finish and what's worse way too long.
The only laughs from the audience of disappointed kids and adults was when the donkey farts. Apart from that it's a giant fart of a movie, whatever you do do NOT see it and wait for Paddington.
I just saved you a potential horrible 2 hours of a film with no heart or warmth.
For those of you coming to the seminar on Monday a reminder we start at 10am, I have plenty of caffeine waiting for you and lots of great snacks in the first break at 11am!
A good lunch too. Hope you enjoy the day and never worry about stopping me and asking me the most basic of questions.
I have a nice shortlist of shares for us to examine and we will be doing plenty of level 2, working out the best time to buy or sell something.
And you get to have a good nose through my accounts! Any trades made will be live from my Isa and spreadbetting accounts!
I hope you all enjoy it, I'll be sending you notes on email the day after including anything that came up for those who might leave before the end.
If you missed this one the next is January 26th, make it your new year's resolution to come and spend a day with me!
Mail me at robbiethetrader@aol.com with "January seminar interested".
Beginners and improvers welcome! Come and spend the day with me, the markets and some lovely people - and of course, lunch, lots of sugary snacks, and even live chocolate waffle making in the teabreak!
My seminars are designed for beginners, dabblers and improvers and deals with everything from how to look for winners, how to research, spreadbetting, level 2 use how to time trades and short, how to use advfn properly and run your portfolio without having to spend money on systems and tipsters.. and tons more.
A lot of the day comes directly from the live markets and I show you many of the tricks I use to get good prices live. And there might even be the odd live trade or 2!
Here's some feedback from from "D"
'It's obvious from his site Robbie Burns is a good market analyst and shrewd stock-picker. He is also a highly opinionated commentator on everything from TV shows to food. Therefore I expected his seminar to be 75% entertainment, 15% general exposition for beginners and-- if we were lucky-- 10% of something I could use to help me invest. But I could not have been more wrong.
The opinions on food and politics etc. though genuine, are I believe a bit of disguise or misdirection for there is a real touch of rebel genius here. And in the seminar, which is 95% hardball, he actually takes you candidly right into the mental process involved in his successful trading, making it a pretty amazing display, even showing his own investment accounts right there on the screen. You can see at once why so many of us are merely stabbing in the dark with our investments.
This is a genuine coaching session in how to trade like him if you put in the graft. I have only bought one stock since, as I am waiting for the tools he recommends, but I got the price down by using his tactics and I cannot recommend the seminar too highly if you are going there to learn. It must be taxing on him to let us at such length and in such detail into the process, which has made him so much money (for--unlike so many other so-called experts the seminars are not a day job). My advice therefore would be to sign up for this while he is still prepared to do it.'

Naked Trader Seminar Latest News
Fancy spending a day with me, learning all the ways I have learned over the years to find good shares and play the markets? Well, you can at one of my seminars!
Booking is open for the Naked Trader seminar on January 26th
Price is £650 plus vat. However there is a decent early bookers discount available for those booking nice and early.
That includes three course lunch, coffees, snacks etc.
The seminar is mainly aimed at beginners and dabblers though improvers are welcome too.
Topics covered using live market feeds all day include: Market psychology, level 2 - a simple guide to how to use it for better timing; how to value companies; finding companies that are about to rise. I will also cover techniques for handling events such as the recent meltdown and volatility.
Spreadbetting: How to use it to gain an edge and go short. Market makers - how they work and how to beat them; how to stop losing money and make it instead and plenty more.
How to plan trade entries and exits - how to research companies and understand reports, plus all those niggly questions you always wanted to ask. How to set stop losses and targets. Charts and how to use them.
Also covered: Market maker tricks: How to spot tree shakes and use them in your favour, How to tell when NOT to buy a share. I use live ADVFN all day with lots of level 2 and looks at all kind of live market data.
The idea behind the seminar is SIMPLICITY. I don't use jargon or fancy words - everything is in PLAIN ENGLISH! No question is too stupid and the event is held in a friendly relaxed and supportive environment.
The idea is you will come away from the event I hope a wise and better investor with lots of new ideas. I try and translate complex topics into easy bite size pieces. I also aim for it to be entertaining as well as instructive.
If you are interested please e-mail me at robbiethetrader@aol.com with "Dec seminar interested" in the subject line and I will send you full details of the event including comments from those who have come to previous seminars and you can then decide whether you would like to come. See you there!
One seminar attendee Clare wanted to write a testimonial about her experiences at the seminar which follows now!
"I've just come back buzzing from one of Robbie's seminars. What a day! He's just brilliant, and manages to pack an awful lot into one day, and with his enthusiastic and humorous delivery the day just flies by. There are no gimmicks, no sell, no "˜get-rich-quick' promises, just his own solid, sound approach which he has learnt over the years and which works.
He shows you how to minimise the risks and maximise the profits and points out the banana skins on the way. Where the seminar really comes into its own is when he teaches using live level 2. Hearing him talk through his thought processes and reasoning is invaluable, and really brings home everything from the book. He has endless patience answering peoples' questions, and really seems to care that everybody understands.
On top of that, you meet some really nice like minded people and swap e mail addresses, you're plied with
chocolates and coffee all day, have a great lunch and spend the evening getting tiddled with Robbie in the
bar afterwards!
Don't worry about the cost, it's easily worth it, and you'll soon make it back with your new-found investment skills, and in what you're no longer losing. If you're thinking of going along to his next seminar, whether you're a novice or an experienced trader, don't hesitate ""just go!
Thanks Clare, did you want the tenner in cash, or will a cheque do?

Naked Rambling
All this means is they will try and shift (in Lord Sir A's language) "a loat of old tut". Anything they can't sell normally they will try and make you buy it.
Stuff that soon you realise you never wanted and nor did the person you got it for if it's a gift and will probably be in landfill come the new year.
Frankly I hate the commercial side of Xmas, I'm really not interested, I don't want any "gifts". Bah humbug to the lot of it!
Talking of a load of old tut a celeb's Xmas park has been closed for a while after complaints that it was... well.. a load of old tut.
Grumbling santas, elves having a crafty fag... actually this is pretty much true of most of the "xmas theme parks, fairs..."
Boy can these rip off places really cost. Don't expect to go to somewhere like "Winter Wonderland" in London without spending £100 in an hour. Easily done.
Not only are the "rides" an expensive rip off and not much good either but so is the "food". And everything. They're out to get your money. Ho Ho Ho!
Gordon Brown is retiring as an MP. Good riddance. He must go down in history as the worst prime minister/chancellor ever.
He has a list of bad moves of which the worst was selling the country's gold at the bottom of the market.
And who could forget so many of his famous howlers including calling a potential voter a bigot.
He must have a smile on his face when he watched Ed Moribund. Poor Ed this time tried a light show where he thought he could get away with saying "cost of living crisis" a lot.
But he was done by a pop singer who had a good go at him. Talk about caught in the headlights.
The guy just hasn't got the foggiest on how to deal with normal people. He's lived in a lovely house in Hamstead near a load of similar mates with no idea of how the real world works at all.
Homeland was really powering ahead... well, till the near the end of the last episode when "Brody" reappears to Carrie in a psychotic episode. But it ends up being one of the baddies.
The plot suddenly becomes a bit more fantasy than possible reality. Let's hope the series doesn't start going downhill like the last one as it's been good up to this point.
The Apprentice entertains as ever.
How we all laughed at the absolutely hopeless ads produced by the two teams.
However big black mark to the producers who didn't even do a simple google search to check the name "Big Dawg" was not already in use.
Worse it was already in use on an energy drink in the states. Ooops.
Anyway the ads of course were horrible as expected. Sometimes I think it's bad to laugh at this bunch as at least they "Have a go" at doing something. Then I think, no, sod it, just have the laugh guilt free.
Trying to watch Broadchurch and The Missing together is proving a bit tricky as they both deal in the same topic but totally differently.
It's easy to get confused between the two but that's what happens to an elderly brain...
I'm A Celebrity kind of entertains but only as a quick fast forward through...
My bet before the show started on Jimmy Bullard looks all right as he is now the favourite... might still be worth a bet..
Spreadex is doing prices.
You can sign up here for sports and I'm A Celeb and Strictly betting:

Good quick execution of bets and a great range of markets. Recommended!

I agree with comments about Dr Who and Breaking Bad. I used to enjoy Dr. Who years ago but I think it's worn out, it's all about celebrity now, like everything else on telly.
I recently was enjoying the Sopranos a friend let me borrow (fascinating story lines) and my son Rob in Australia (an irrelevance to you of course), he said if you like Sopranos you'll love Breaking Bad. Wow was he ever right. I got the full set from Amazon (apart from the last season). I'm having to eke it out it's so brilliant I don't want it to end, that's the sad bit. What about the uncle in the desert in the wheelchair with the bell strapped to the arm of the chair, the missus and me just fell about and many more just brilliant set ups dragging out every emotion.
Agree Dave, love Breaking Bad. Only five to go for me and I won't spoil what happens for you except it gets more and more addictive!

"For throwing your heart, soul and energy into one fact-packed, full-on and exhaustingly educational day: FIVE stars with no hesitation!!
Met some really nice people too - like me, nervous that it was the most we'd ever spent on a whole day of anything (had we made arses of ourselves?) But no one felt short-changed, especially when you were still going strong when we all wanted to go to bed! One of your delegates, Susan, back for a second time, said to me unequivocally, "you will go away absolutely inspired." I can't disagree.
Thanks Gary, hope you make some money!

Wanted to say a big thank you to you and Mrs NT for an amazing day of learning and fun at your seminar.
The way you explained the share trading from start to finish was understandable and really interesting, well worth the seminar fee!
It was great to hear such down to earth and honest assessment from a successful trader like yourself. The way you explained everything was good revision from your book and gave further insight into successful share trading.
I particularly liked your live trades and going through your accounts when you gave snippets of why you invested in certain shares and why you kept/dumped them. Also helpful was the way you searched for prospective shares and within minutes discounted them or put them on a short list for further examination and correct entry points. Amazing!
You could really tell that you loved doing what you do and your energy levels to keep going till 10pm was well....... I had to leave at 9pm I was shattered!
Thanks again Robbie I am keen to put into practice what you have taught me. Even though you make squillions from your trades and I am sure don't need to do the seminars for financial gain, but please keep doing those seminars for newbies like me!
Thanks Duane! Don't expect to be doing them foreever but very rewarding for me to help people so expect to carry on for a while longer.
Gabriel writes:
If you are reading this, you are perhaps considering going on one of Robbie's Seminars. You maybe asking yourself (like I did) the testimonials are all well and good but once the euphoria and excitement of attending a Seminar has died down ..... and I am back home in my normal routine and faced with the "graft" of putting it all into practice... will I become a better trader and be financially better off?
Let me tell you that in my case it certainly has!
Book your place pretty sharpish....... is what I say !
Thanks Gabriel!
Terry writes:
Fantastic seminar.
I have always been sceptical of the public testaments you see on web sites
saying how great an event was. Now I'm one of those people!. I
genuinely believe that the tips and techniques as well as the overall
approach you demonstrated will radically improve my trading performance
Thanks Terry, well all the testaments are real but know what you mean and glad you feel it was worth it!

EMAILS: I do beg you not to send me emails asking me for advice on a particular share. It isn't legal for me to give you individual advice and all I do is send you a mail saying that, which wastes a lot of my time and yours too. This includes asking me what to do with a share, what I might "think" about a share, or deconstructing any of the buys I mention here. I would be grateful, see FAQ for more on this. Of course more than happy to answer general questions not related to specific shares.
****
COPYING TRADES: I can't stop you from copying a trade I made but remember the price may already be a lot higher than I paid indeed I hope it is as buying at good prices is what I do for a living. You may be buying at the top and could easily lose money. Also I can make terrible mistakes and have done in the past. I could also sell before you or before the share tanks. I may still be holding in a year when you sold at a loss. Always do your own research, don't jump in blindly. Market makers are very clever at knowing how to make you pay top dollar and then push you out at a loss. This site is about sensible investment and learning how to trade sensibly and is not a tipping site. Beware. Never push buy on anything till you've done proper research and got yourself a sensible price.
****
I'm sure many of you like me wonder why the market is going up.
And will it just stop and go down a bit quite soon otherwise we are not going to get our lovely Xmas rally!
I've bought some Carclo (CAR). I was in this a long time ago because they had some new technology - however it wasn't working out well so I bailed.
But on the basis of their other businesses the shares look value under a quid so it seems worth buying at these levels targeting 25-30% for upside to 125-130 in time. (Patience will be required, I have it).
Potential downside is a large debt so a rights issue/fundraising may be needed at some point but there may be some upside to that if it can be got away at a decent price. There is risk involved here but once it's decided how to sort out the technology that didn't bring in the money (should be done by year end) shares could get a re-rating. I'd have thought any downside for now would be limited (as long as any right/placing is at a good price)/
There is some kind of shorting gang, almost mafia style around trying to hit shares. Pretty easy to make a share fall by causing unfounded fear. I think they hit the wrong share in Optimal Payments (Opay) with some fear caused by a director dealing - I don't think the dealing was anything to worry about and in any event it happened a long time back.
So I took advantage and bought quite a load. I don't see why the share shouldn't head back up to the 500 mark and it looks a perfectly fine business to me. I wonder if some action should be taken to stop shorting collusion in the smaller shares - one idea could be to only allow naked shorting in the top 250 fully listed shares. I don't think people/companies should be allowed to profit from spreading false fears on shares - I feel this is pretty close to criminal activity. It doesn't just affect investors but could result in job losses and companies struggling.
I'm very lucky to have made millions on the market and I feel the majority of the money has been made by topping up and building larger stakes in good companies as they go up.
I feel many people make losses because they do the opposite, keep buying shares on the way down.
And so I have added shares in a few where I still think there is good upside.
So I bought some more of recent buy Flowgroup (FLOW) - plenty of good newsflow coming out here which makes it worth buying more as it goes up.
News over the last couple of weeks includes its first volume boilers rolling off the production line and an expansion of its Jabil manufacturing deal.
With more good news hopefully to come I'm continuing to build my stake.
I also bought more in other recent buy Quartix (QTX) .. as I said last time
QTX looks to have plenty of growth potential ... profits and revenue have risen nicely every year over the last 3 and it can carry this on, the shares will gradually re-rate higher.
And I have bought more of Vectura (VEC) where I now have a very big stake. The shares are starting to re-rate again after its half-year report last week. There's a good chance this one could end up being a massive company.
It's picked up a milestone payment after its astma inhaler's newest approvals. A long-term tuckaway which could bring massive rewards with a little patience.
I topsliced a few OPG to bank a profit of £1,522 but hold onto the majority of it and as I sold at a nice price, 105.75 so now as it has come back a little I am tempted to buy them back at under 100.
PORTFOLIO HIGHLIGHTS
Some pretty upbeat reports from one or two portfolio holdings.
Sprue Aegis put out a fantastic report, expecting to beat market expectations - a really strong update. As I mentioned when I bought this lower recently it looks like a lovely company in a growing area.
It's the type of share any investor should be in.
Telecom Plus reported well - big increases in profits and dividend. Indeed a big dividend is on the way after it goes ex dividend tomorrow for 19p. (The shares should open up 19p lower tomorrow to account for the dividend). So it means next month I'll pick up a big fat cheque which should pay for Xmas and a holiday in Dubai!
It looks like water is on its radar next as that is likely to be open to competition soon and insurance too. Simply a nice sleep at night tuckaway that should continue to provide good income and capital growth.
Renew put out a sparking statement targetting over £500m revenue in the next few years. Bit of profit taking on the statement but once that is over I think it it onwards and upwards.
BTG Group tries to conquer 800p. Hayward Tyler's share price has had a nice boost this week.
Amino Tech has come back a tad after a spike up but is on an undemanding rating and with tons of cash and could have another nice run up in price given a good market.
Recent buy Mission Marketing goes well and Spire continues to shoot up and remain a holder of both.
Energy Assets still looks a good thing. I can't believe I did do well out of the British Airways spreadbet now up 100 points, or whatever it is called International Consolidated..
Pets At Home which is trying to hold above 200, looking for a push up to 220 ish. Iomart has gone above 200 again and Regeneris is looking strong.
GVC continues to be a lovely share. Super profits but the dividends are simply amazing and I got a nice juicy payout of nearly £2,000 recently. Iomart is holding well over 200 again.
GB Group where I have made a fortune (£12,000 profit for the site so far) I'm now hoping for a bid to take it out in the 200 area.
For those of you thinking of playing the Santa rally in late Dec, might be worth opening an account here in readyness as the FTSE spread is only 0.8

** Two Newer Spreadfirms I Use
It is hard to find a firm that does prices on the very small companies but this company does:
http://www.spreadex.com/nakedtrader
It does spreads on smaller ones other companies don't like Dillistone so worth having an account for that, been using it for a while and very happy so far. They also have an Ipad offer at the moment which is on that link

TIGHTEST SPREAD FOR TRADING THE FTSE/DOW ETC
If you're into trading indices this one is the cheapest with just a 0.8 spread which is fantastic - execution is top too
http://www.spreadco.com/nakedtrader/
If you start using them and find any problems please let me know.
IG
I also use IG's spreadbetting service too along with other firms. Great execution of trades and nice trailing stops which to me is a pretty sensible way of trading. Also with this link there is an excellent education programme and it offers the biggest range of smaller shares.
http://www.ig.com/nakedtrader
As usual before opening accounts please read all the warnings on the sites. You can lose a lot of money if you're not careful so pay close attention to them and make sure you always understand what you are doing and what your potential losses are.

Telecom Plus Offer
You get to sell great broadband, phone packages and energy to friends, relatives, contacts and anyone else you find and you get cash for each sale but more importantly you get a cut of their spend EVERY MONTH for as long as they are a customer!
It's called residual income and is a far better way to enjoy a ripe old age than relying on a pension. Because even after you stop selling the money STILL comes in!
I still get paid EVERY MONTH for sales I made back in 1999! Every time a customer uses broadband or the phone or switches on a light you get paid.
It's a great business and backed by a stock market company (Telecom Plus), a dedicated team of advisors.. and me to help you on your way!
Not only do you get paid out every month for each customer you can take on distributors. encourage them like I do and get paid on their sales as well.
One day, say you could made redundant, needed a year off or wanted to retire early can you imagine what joy it is to have the regular income coming in. It's wonderful.
You have to work at it, but if you do genuine repeat wealth could be yours. I did it. You can too. For full details, why not email me at robbiethetrader@aol.com.
An overview is also available at http://www.utilitywarehouse.org.uk/fabdeal you can sign up directly there but do tell me! (Click become a distributor and follow links)

Trade tables follow! Trades are current open and recently closed trades. Closed trades feature the closing price and the amount I won or lost. All others are open. Trades get updated a little later than the narrative. Trading costs are ignored, however I also do not add in dividend payments and with the kinds of companies I buy, dividends tend to equal or outweigh costs. Spread rollovers ignored for web purposes. Tables as accurate as poss however a mistake or two can creep in and very occasionally if I forgot I sold or bought something it will be added at a later time. Trades first reported in the diary under Markets
on every other Wednesday afternoon.
