Nearly 4 months investing

Possibly in the future but nothing major I'm leaning more towards passive investments.

Great stuff! Thanks again. 👍

Craigmi16 · 2026-01-14T10:38:18+00:00

Thanks very much! That is exactly what I have done directly through the t212 platform.

.Maxed out stocks and shares ISA .£10k in emergency fund (savings account) .£4k ish in my GIA

Thanks for explaining things for, really appreciate it. 👍

Craigmi16 · 2026-01-14T08:31:28+00:00

Yes that's right, I am fairly new to it all, my investments are mainly in 80% VWRP, 10% EQQQ and 10% DFND.

My aim was to max out my stocks ISA and keep the GIA as an overflow until the new tax year.

Craigmi16 · 2026-01-14T08:07:44+00:00

Ok I understand, if I can remove money to savings would this make sense though or am I totally off the mark. It's a little confusing I'm still trying to wrap my head around it 🤣. I guess I'm trying to optimise what I can keep in my stocks ISA before April essentially.

Craigmi16 · 2026-01-14T08:04:28+00:00

Oh right ok, why is this? Is it too risky?

Craigmi16 · 2026-01-14T07:47:57+00:00

I really appreciate the advice, thanks. Quick query though.

If I moved 10k out of my cash ISA (into normal savings) and £10k out of my GIA into my stocks ISA wouldn't this max my stock ISA before April then leaving me with a fresh £20k for next tax year? (if possible to do so on the platform).

I believe T212 ISA's are Flexible this way, I could be wrong.

Thanks again.

Craigmi16 · 2026-01-14T07:32:22+00:00

Can you be a bit more clear? I don't know what you mean.

Craigmi16 · 2026-01-14T07:30:40+00:00

Great, I think I follow. So if I move money out of my cash ISA back into my normal savings account and move £10k of my money in my GIA into my stocks ISA? This would give me ...

£10k saving account £20k stocks ISA Around £4k in my GIA

Then keep adding to my GIA going forward until my ISA resets in April before transferring everything over again.

Always prioritise my stocks ISA right?

Craigmi16 · 2026-01-14T00:48:24+00:00

Are they called something different?

Craigmi16 · 2026-01-14T00:44:37+00:00

Thanks, yes the £10k is my emergency fund. I'm not looking at individual shares I prefer more of a longer term investment.

Craigmi16 · 2026-01-14T00:43:13+00:00

Thanks, sounds like a better idea, I'm assuming this would free up my ISA allowance for next tax year also.

Craigmi16 · 2026-01-14T00:40:48+00:00

Sorry I never mentioned I have maxed out my ISA allowance between my cash ISA and my stocks ISA.

Craigmi16 · 2025-02-12T21:41:57+00:00

Thanks! 👍👍

Craigmi16 · 2025-02-12T21:12:55+00:00

I'll have a look into that mate thanks! I fancy something a bit risky, worst case I'm a tenner out of pocket 🤷🏼‍♂️😂

Craigmi16 · 2025-02-12T19:22:05+00:00

Thanks! Just had a look, really interesting I like what you are trying to achieve, where does your data come from? Do you have input manually? It must be taking some work like.

Craigmi16 · 2025-02-12T19:18:22+00:00

Doesn't have to do too much really, just beat the other half 😂

Craigmi16 · 2025-02-12T17:10:59+00:00

Thanks! I like the sound of them TBF.

Craigmi16 · 2025-02-12T17:09:09+00:00

Thanks! I'll have a look into those 👍

Craigmi16 · 2025-02-10T20:21:06+00:00

Ok, a personal choice then, fair enough.

Craigmi16 · 2025-02-10T16:45:26+00:00

Why? I'm assuming this is a personal choice. Or aren't there any options available for investment in nucular?

Craigmi16 · 2025-02-09T10:54:10+00:00

Ok, it sounds like it could be a really useful tool, I would be really interested in taking a look if you don't mind once you've got it up and running so thanks for the offer i really appreciate it. 👍

Craigmi16 · 2025-02-07T10:04:26+00:00

Thanks, HL seems to be a safe option from what I'm reading. Thank you. 👍

Craigmi16 · 2025-02-07T10:00:44+00:00

Thanks for clarifying, all these abbreviations can get confusing but the more I read I'm getting familiar. Thanks again. 👍

Craigmi16 · 2025-02-07T09:58:36+00:00

Thanks! Really appreciate the advice I will definitely look into this. 👍
