first buy

[gavin_sharples]

ive just bought $50000 worth of vodaphone does anyone think was a bad move at 138 per share

If you got them for $138, then well done - a bargain, sell them immediately
Otherwise...
You ask an apparently simple question.
Not wishing to pour cold water, but it raises many others, such as :-
How long you are intending to hold them and how much profit you are aiming for.
Is this a day trade, position trade or what ?
Have you set a stop loss ?
Why didn't you buy them last September at 80p support ?
Why didn't you wait for a break above 140p ?
etc etc.

i havent the faintest idea what im doing but will accept all help that is given thanks

Astonishing !

If you haven't the faintest idea what you're doing, why in hell's name are you buying shares in relatively large numbers ?

Suggest get rid of them while the going is good and start again - small - like 100 shares.

Build it up slowly.
