(The following is all IMHO) Perhaps after yesterdays charade where I believe it possible that a considerable amount of damage was done to DDD's prospects, at least in the short term, by perhaps a single mm it could be that he/she/they are trying to make the manipulation a little less obvious? Be interesting to see if DDD remains up after trading. This "rise" is on one (apparent) buy of 10,000 today. How convenient for THAT mm to get more than the opening book price. Guilt? Can a mm "do" guilt?

Thu 15:47---(Name of Poster)---(Title)---PRICE 4.13///////Thu 16:37---(Name of Poster)---(Title)---PRICE 3.88. Between those times, if I have calculated correctly 114,400 were bought and only 18,000 sold (Possibly by someone who needed a sale to force the price back down), 78,000 were bought AFTER the 18,000 sale. IMO The House of Commons is not the only place where indecency is rife. Buy in early with this as there are people who know the value of what they are holding, IMO DYOR.

Yep, and a big rat at that. Yesterday the only transaction was a buy and they still pushed the price down. I'm sure we aren't the only ones who notice.

West11, take heart. Going through my (very) old records. In Oct 2003 I bought very many fewer DDD than I own now and paid 35.5p, they had signed an important contract with Sharp I sold them 7days later for 45p. OK, that was then, this is now and past performance is not an indicator of future etc, etc. But the potential is so good here, who knows?

This seems to be a great product. If IP Navigation Group, the newly appointed agent can get the licence agreed with the major manufacturers DDD could have an indusry standard. From the RNS: Chris Yewdall, CEO of DDD, said: "DDD has invested heavily over the past twenty years to invent innovative 3D products and solutions that have been used by leading brand name licensees in tens of millions of 3D products, confirming the relevance of these inventions. We believe that IPNav brings a depth of experience, worldwide coverage and flexible approach that we did not see with other intellectual property advisors." Erich Spangenberg, CEO of IPNav said: "DDD's 3D conversion and rendering technology patents and related intellectual property are well established in the 3D market globally. This appointment will allow IPNav to assist DDD in its ongoing efforts to achieve fair value for its significant investments in research and development." So there are some really promising times ahead. As ever, DYOR. GLA

ExFactor, I understand. Certainly not a foolish buy at these prices.

High of April! Chris Yewdall does seem very competent indeed. Fingers crossed for more progress.

"we may see that as a foot note to earnings next week..." Yes, that would be positive and help change recent sentiment. Who knows, perhaps Chris Yewdall is labouring away in a small dark room at DDD HQ with his Brother portable typewriter even now. Well, I think us loyal long-termers deserve a bit of a break too. DYOR

I expect you have seen the February RNS but it only says this, "DDD expects to publish its full year results for 2013 during the week of 14 April 2014." The cheeky little tinkers stuck it below another, more positive RNS so goodness knows what they will do next time! I am hoping for a Projected Earnings RNS sometime though. Having said that, I am talking anything up to about 3 months, but with luck, could be quicker. GLA DYOR

AND ME!!! Still a bargain though. I'll try to be fair to MM's, I suppose they've been holding a long time to get a return on these, but who knows.... those results? Will there be an RNS with speculative projections on latest contracts? The one thing they have missed is definite predictions and as we know, the reduced profit is already priced in. DYOR

Apologies for getting your name wrong, especially as I am wearing my best glasses(!) I was wondering, as the shares have only declined for the past year I suppose there must be plenty on MM books. Perhaps it will take a while for a turn-around. Even so, provides a little space perhaps for me to raise extra funds. DYOR

Whatever you decide, good luck to you. I see a couple of buys this morning. "Do not try to catch falling daggers". That makes a nice change. "Buy in when everybody else is selling". So difficult to make a decision guaranteed to be right.

I think I have paid over 30 for them when they had a Sharp contract back in the tech bubble, it was so long ago I have genuinely forgotten. I made a profit on them even then. The market has changed and they admit to being hit by the decline in PC sales but with products that suit tablets and mobile phones they are well placed to profit from new markets, plus proven products and licencing, this should be a growth explosion, soon, perhaps very soon. I am very seriously thinking of topping up (again!) even though I had convinced myself not to, but DDD needs, and more importantly, deserves many more friends GLA (DYOR)

" I foolishly thought I saw the right time to top up...." I don't think you have been foolish at all. This has been oversold for a long time and ANYTIME has been the right time to top up. Plus which averaging down must be the right way to go for those with the money to invest here DYOR Please nice mr mm don't drive this any lower, I couldn't stand it. ;-)

£5.57 Million. This share is an even bigger bargain and the more they drive it down the bigger bargain it becomes. One trade, a buy of 10,000 and the price drops 3.13 per cent, I do hope the directors ARE watching this mm charade and do some stealing from them soon. DYOR

Surely! Don't forget folks, in profit, no debt and a company that has been around for well over a decade in IT regularly used to negotiating contracts with companies like, Sony, LG, Sharp...(Bit of a ramp I know, but they do deserve it. DYOR GLA) "This time next year Rodney!"

"""Then hopefully directors can start buying..." I know I would if I had it spare. There are some really exciting things to come here, I know you know, I hope you know I know, We are just waiting for everybody else.

I think somebody has recognised the potential. That 100,000 is a buy. What a bargain price too.

Very strange these regular sells every day. I suppose just keep an eye on it and perhaps buy on news. The profit warning is more than in the price here. I thought the year end results were next week but I see now they are due the week after.

I'm pretty sure that this was shown down at 08:15 this morning on no trades whatsoever. I check it regularly a few times every day, for comments as well as price.
