    I don't post on mums net.

      "I'd have to return 20% every year just to match" Swing trader does not think about the portfolio size, as long as the percentages are good / safe / risk measured.

      I started with a portfolio in 2017 with only 4 figures. By now I've exceeded my contractor income easily but that does not even enter my mind much to be honest. Rather I enjoy what I'm doing, like finding your calling.
      If you are that successful why not borrow from bank and make billions, instead of making millions?

        It would be vulgar to say just how much but I hasten to add that my capital gains is f*cked if I withdraw the cash!

        Anyway, DYOR and YMMV.

          I was thinking this. Why on earth would you buy/sell FTSE shares outside an ISA or SIPP. Makes no sense at all?

                Scoots still says that Apr 2020 didn't mark the start of a new stock bull market.

                  The Crypto short remains open also. Thinking of opening another...
                  You seem to have developed an obsession with shorts. Even your beloved crypto.

                      The 3 shares he mentioned are listed on AIM, and I don't think you can hold AIM shares in an ISA, although I think you can hold them in a SIPP.
