HITS referred to your genius so I had to log out to see your mind boggling post.
Two maths exercise and both wrong - I think I'll do my own maths.

Advice to sell SXX should bring home what your advice is worth - remember that folks when SXX raises my profits from 300% to 1200% once ST2 is finalised.

And £600 sounds like a lot of money to MTB so his advice is really worthwhile to many of you who invest that sort of amount for a bit of fun.

Here is my filter list .... do you doubt me now?

"he'd be nuts to average down " could be interpreted as meaning 1.60 is very achievable!
MB makes that sort of assumption all the time which is why he is filtered.
Suffering fools lightly has never been my forte.

Back to my more hopeful investments ....

I wonder why SS did not work this out for you MTB? I don't really!
Never thought anybody would be so intrigued about my holding, but I knew there are several simultaneous equation in the data which should make it simple.

I have some more with another broker but having bought SXX in low single figures makes AVN losses a small itch.
I spend my time salivating over that company and not here which is why I am so amazed MTB spends his time here! I have an iron in the fire and the fire still burns ... until it is out I still have hopes.

My main interest is in Commonwealth Bank Of Australia who pay handsome dividends and made me a mint on sp.

Once I decide which company to invest in I buy in and leave the money to manage itself most of the time.

MTB post has disappeared now I am logged in but there was something stupid deriding selling at 2.71 and buying at 2.13 whatever went before is immaterial FFS! It did drop my average significantly.

If I need somebody to handle my affairs it would not be him, HITS would be fine, his approximation is closer. MTB might mean Mathematically totally b*.

I once had to code an anti-missile missile system using simultaneous equations to decide on range and speed of a mach 3 missile - if he wrote that I'd be seriously worried! It worked by measuring doppler shifts in radar signals at various frequencies.

One frequency gave you a set of ranges e.g. 3 9 12 15 18 21 24 27 miles etc...etc
The next frequency produced a different set e.g. 5 10 15 20 25 30 miles etc...etc
A third frequency might be 3.75 7.5 11.25 15 18.75 etc for belt and braces!

SS have you worked out that the target must be 18.75 miles away? I hope so :O)

Nice surprise there. I cannot remember doing this but I made a big sale at £2.71 and then bought back at £2.13 so my average, which I believed was north of £2.20, is actually £1.60

Never thought it would go lower than £2.20 even with DW at the helm knocking over yachts and beaching the boat.
So it makes sense but I don't bother with my portfolio on this one. It will either lose the last few quid or recover to a value that is worth withdrawing.

Hmmm ... I reduce my break even price to £1 from £1.60 for an outlay of just over £600 , and to 50p would cost around £2400 , and to 25p is about £6500 at today's price of 4.49p

Cost rockets to get it much to much lower e.g. 12.5p would cost me £18000

50p @ £2400 takes my eye - but would it be better spent on TLOU or AVN which look to be bargain prices for a more certain outcome? Decisions decisions! Less risky rather than more certain is maybe better wording.

£600 for a target of £1 maybe more sense. A rise from 4.49p to £1 may just keep rising and we were at £7 in the early days. 4.49p to 50p is the same scenario but at 4 times the price?

Can someone please move it off the top :O)

HTS your explanation was unnecessary - I am sure 99% of this board understood your original post.
What else could you have saying?

Thinking of creating a spreadsheet to optimise my holding here. There must be a number of 4p shares which won't cost much that brings my target price down to realistic levels. If all the lth's in my boat did the same we might just boost the price a few pence.

Fairly simple really - Tokyo - Cal rode well mate?

Good stuff, HTS, - you are compatible with Rachel (same solution) who has agreed to spend a weekend in Monte Carlo with you.
She suggests on her 80th birthday :O)

Had to log out to see the filtered message which is cut and pasted.

Sure, why not
8+3=11
11x75=825
825+50=875
2x3x3=18
875-18=857.

Do I win a prize?

Yes, if there were 3 3's!

Are merging with Clydesdale & Yorkshire Bank to become UK's 6th largest bank.

Branson has moved a bit closer

This one can be done - Rachel got it.

857 from 2 3 3 8 50 and 75

8.31% rise today though the SP is higher than the Ask is more difficult to fathom?

Poly4 makes spaghetti trees and parmo plants grow well, no doubt.

Buy a small plate of it, Chesh, a bucket full could be fatal.

Eustus - my old headmaster's name btw (phonetically) - your p was a typo?

In 2007, North Yorkshire Trading Standards conducted a survey of 25 fast food dishes. A large parmo with chips and salad they tested contained about 2600 calories and 150g of fat.

The parmo is said to have been created by Nicos Harris, a chef with the American army in World War II. He was wounded in France, but was brought to the United Kingdom to be treated in a British hospital. Eventually, he moved to Middlesbrough and opened a restaurant on Linthorpe Road, where he created the parmo at The American Grill in 1958. His son-in-law, Caramello, still lived in Teesside as of 2014, continuing the family tradition.

Take care around the mine and port .... has anybody tried parmo?

DTE, I am sure we are happy to sell the whole lot to Botswana but, due to Tlou's diligence, the deal is going to be close to the prevailing average spot price around each extension. Botswana was selected partly because it has a stable Govt compared to some other African countries. Maintaining electricity supplies across Botswana alone sounds easier than supplying a whole region which will be dependent upon some Botswana links anyway.

Transmission losses will also be reduced - currently reckoned to be 5% across the USA

At risk of sounding like a scratch record that won't advance, Sekaname was definitely quoted a while back as stating they are not interested in this project UNLESS they are given a sizeable order t make it worth their while.

Botswana are not inundated with tenders so were they pushed into 100Mw by Seka?
They may prefer our 2M to 10Mw to limit their losses if the worst happens.

Tip - don't type with your fingers crossed , sorry about the typos.

I have said several times this was the way to go.
Show the Africans a working system here and give them the confidence it will work for them at better prices than we were probably offering.
Expecting them to invest a lot of money on a brand new venture from a start-up company was cloud cuckoo land Mr DW.

Discounting the price to get a captive audience is a similar thing. It will make it worth taking a chance on it working and once it is proven they won't want to lose it! Paying more than a bargain price won't be a problem at all?
Whether they'd pay 3 times the discounted price i.e. current recommended price, will be subjective depending whether fast broadband was cost effective. New online businesses could easily pick up that unwanted bandwidth if it happens.

Poole Pirates becoming speedway champions on October 10th after this headline ...

19th June 2018
PIRATES' priority will be to try and lift themselves back off the bottom of the SGB Premiership league table when they travel to neighbours Somerset on Wednesday.

looked so likely ..... fingers crossed Cornwall will be the kickstart for .... Poole won in Somerset and never looked back.

I attended the same school as Arthur_C._Clarke - I was there in the year that he performed end of year school presentations. Shame I was never into sc-fi or it may have been more exciting. I guess DH Lawrence was unavailable :O)

Cherokee you make smile with "Of course if everything goes to plan, over a long enough time frame, you may make triple your money (over 10 years?)."

Tell that to those who bought close to 2p upwards :0)

blooming predictive text - becomes a frenzy of course - like their instead of there Glossy!
