It jut will not give way, seems there is ii pressure from somewhere keeping this floating. Don't see why although volume is very low. Boiler room pumping it? Is that why the one post wonder showed up with some bull **** about take-overs? What a load of rubbish

I'm having your stupid post removed.

Momentum?

It's almost as if every attempt to drop is quickly counter balanced. I wonder if the trader's computers are out of sync and fighting each other with different stratergies. The sp just seems to be stuck in some endless loop.

Come on computers, make your mind up, this is getting boring. Some people are resorting to making up stories about calls from the states offering to buy shares off book - how that is supposed to be accomplished with your shares in a retail account I have no idea. WE'RE BORED _ DO SOMETHING!

Hapster, how did they know you have any shares? You didn't recieve such a call did you? You are liar aren't you?

Yup, looks about right, and right time of day. RNS about some green crap helped.

Nobody knows what the re-entry point will be. Essentially some pis are waiting to see what reaction there is to results, some waiting to see if this new high is really smoke and mirrors. It is a bit of a gamble at the moment. Let's just say, more experienced pis are keeping out of it for the moment. But nobody knows what is going to happen really.

metallic kids too lolololol

Oh oh, into the red.

Fantastic escape at 192. You must have lots of kids!

EasyJ is confined to the boundries of Europe.

IAG is confined to the boundaries of Earth.

Next question!

inferno, I let myself get dragged back into the day trading bug. Now I have to see this through. You are correct, doesn't matter as long as the end is greater than the start. But where is the fun in that, and if I can't use this excuse I have to go back to sanding down all the filler in the bathroom as the fitters are due in a week or so. This is a very useful procrastination tool!

The city traders will have a comprehensive calculation on the actual value of the company. There will be a whole set of indicators regaridng debt, cashflow, market share and the like. Based on all of that there will be a number which is in effect a technical sp. It will be roughly the same across the traders as these computations have evolved over the years, some are external equations and measurement techniques, some are in-house and some are a little wild form the new kids. The computers are constantly re-evaluating the variables and using a wide variety of sources to estimate what the variables will be in the future and what different permutations will do to the technical sp. A very big game of chess where the peices can be made to move differently.

In amonst this comes joe with his pension pot. Those city boys have joe factored into their number crunching routines. Those computers do not do ethics. Those computers are set to maximum gain. Second guessing large swings in any share that has automatic trading is a basic casino game. There are some patterns to follow, but mostly if they want joe's pension pot in their bank accounts, they will eventualy drain it dry if joe doesn't hedge and avoid get rich quick trading.

Good fun this isn't it deepblue?

Could get lucky and pay for a dive in the Maldives, or unlucky and end up diving for bricks at the local puddle!

yup, it looks so good, it must be true!

Lot of pis will have signed on during their lunch hour, see the sell and bought back in for a rinse and repeat. Good luck with that!

There is probably some profound quote to offer regaridng the sp today, but that wiggling worm on the end of the hook is not for me at the moment. I do not trust the city on this, there is far to much money on the spinning plates for the opportunity not to be missed by the barrow boys. Mid-afternoon was my prediction. Let's see what the next fall back goes to.

There's no insider dealing going on - 'they' are far too clever for that.
But if your online trading account can offer you managed funds, it means they are trading or have links to traders and every single bit of information you give them in terms of stops, orders and the rest, is used to build up a pi picture and believe me, that data is used without mercy to part you from your money. It is why I never trust automatic trading.

Now look at that intraday graph. Convince me that was not a deliberate dip to test the stops!

RNS most likley before market opens 7am

NOT TEMPTED, no matter what BoA says, lol. A lot of stops were triggered and cleared there, balloon being pumped back up for a bigger pop????? Good luck to the day traders. Way to risky for me to think about this, too many dark forces down at Canary Wharf for my style of investing.

I still don't think the big red button has been pressed. The sel at the stops is being absorbed quite well, not a lot of volume. BUT, when a ii dumpd a million, then time to login in to your tradeing platform and prepare. WHEN, well that is the question. If this does go into a free fall cascade of stops then the bottom today may well belower than the dips many have said they expect tomorrow, so tomorrow could open blue on the results!!!
