Okay, I will check with my brokers.
Bought using cash account instead of cfd..... Normally like u said u buy before the result and contra on xd date, u earn the dividend and maybe on xd date u sell at the buying price..... U can really make money !
Ec did u get bt to confirm this method ?

Yes ep. In fact (to me),  the right to sell  at anytime with other market players  is  one's entitlement in ownership of  the  stock.    |

EPL, i have not once  mentioned  anything like this before. Neither had i advised anyone  on how to manage the pre dividend position, you should  not  quote me as such.
There is no free lunch  nor sure win in this market. I've not used contra before &   neither  the faith  to believe that trading with a restricted timeframe  would help in  managing  a position.

just be aware that in most cases, on the XD day, the stock will open gap down, and usually the gap is as big as the dividend or even more.
but i thought on xd date itself the stock price will drop which equates to the dividend?

what i understand from ig market is that if i want to get the dividend,  the earliest that i can sell sembmar is on 27th April 2011. However, do check with your broker on this. different house might have different policy.
for the dividend you will get 31c per share. so if you have 1 lot of sembmar, you'll receive $310.
share price on xd 26th april...... i don't know.  it might drop 31c or maybe more?... or maybe  drop  20c or  maybe lesser?  nobody know |
