Mowerman and Ipod, Thanks for your responses. I guess if a loss has to be taken, now is the best time to do it. Losses can be carried forward into the new financial year whereas tax has to be paid on profit. My accountant may be more happy about that than I presently am. And yes, it is back to the rules.

I have been trading shares for YEARS, and I still feel I know so very little, so that the info that I , and a lot of others, get from the daytrading thread is a big help. Of course, my decisions are my own but the DT thread is such helpful and positive input ( as a rule) that it is generally well worth factoring in - to a lesser or greater degree - to the day's decisions.
Thanks guys
