Blue day peeps :)

That all makes sense to me - about time we had a bit of proper blue here imo.

lolz

;)

Well according to the local fundys, the Mengo hit alone could put up to a 1,000 bpd on the radar so if that doesn't make this a profitable business at 10-20x their current production then clearly there's something very wrong and the entire enterprise is a write-off anyway! :)

You'd like to think that the wider marketplace knows that already and the current fannying around at the 10p placing price is just that, trying to mug off PIs before moving it back up to properly reflect the Mengo hit, never mind anything coming from Djeno.

It took me years and a ludicrous amouint of hours to "get it" and stop losing money :)

You're right - learning to take decent profits when they're offered, or at least learn to put immovable stops on is 95% of the game. I leave loads of profit on the table for the next guy all the time, I just do not give a flying if I take 40% and it does 240% later on because I know the next one is just around the corner and the guy rocking +240% is still sweating it on paper lol

There are 100x as many +40% trades as there are +400% - nuff said!

I like a gamble too mate - like AAOG for instance lol - but yes, you've gotta get yourself into a position where you've got some kind of formalised/regular system going to stop you going off on one and blowing your stash on something you've not properly weighed up :) Everyone wants to get rich quick and that is absolutely possible but you'll have to be a crook to do it like, y'know, "those guys" :) For everyone else - patience (learn to be early!) and discipline are key as is research, over and above TA :)

Oh and don't listen to a thing anyone says on these boards - virtually every person/ID is a book-talking liar :)

GL :)

Impossible to know wtf is going on behind the scenes of course but equally difficult not to be encouraged by the "trading" and those monster trades that even I, as an arch-cynic of how trades are printed on the lse, has trouble seeing them as anything but genuine buys but who knows :)

News soon and then we'll know for sure :)

@ Spike

FYI, I have real-time (yeah, well, kinda ...) trades on here but not L2 which is nonsense imo as is every other piece of "information" made available to the public, it's only there to misinform ...

Look at Technical Analysis articles around the web, Stockopedia etc for patterns and whatnot and get to grips with Fibs (especially)/RSI/MACD etc. If you're proper bonkers then get into Elliott Wave (I'm not) :)

I'm homebrew myself and you can see my stuff via Googling me - I get by pretty well on TA alone, currently rocking a 4.5x high:low swing ratio over the past couple of months but I trade quarters at a time via weekly charts and I see you're looking at getting real-time charts and I've no idea why you would want to do that but each to their own. I'm a buy it and forget it, wait for the profit move to come in or the stop to be hit, however long it takes kinda trader but if you want to sit there watching everything in real time then that's up to you :)

HTH & GL :)

Right on the "TD" though timing-wise lol

Who knows what that was about but it looked like someone pushed the bid to colect shares for half an hour - all good fun, I suspect news real soon :)

Chunky :)

Agree.

This could well be the rump of the placing going before ...........

Well someone has obviously blinked lol

Touchdown

Let's go :)

TD?

Just keep 5.10p off the ask and we'll be fine :)

It is VERY interesting "trading" imo :)
