Pad I am trying to ascertain whether to short this to oblivion or go long. Short signal is imminent but not yet. The failures of this board are going to latch on to this message and say I am short. Again I am not. But looking to be.

Dunderhead you are a liar. I have only one identity and it is this one. I am the one that gives you raw truths and no cuddling. For god's sake you are all old age pensioners. Grow up. Do you still have mummy issues?

Reality is if there was any truth in these stories even in an unfavourable market, the prized asset that the losers here will have you believe, would be bid. It isn't and the usual rose tinted spectacled ones are once again in hiding in yet another disbelief session.

Admit it you are losing. Acceptance is the one of the phases of grief. Deal with it

Truth hurts Malcolm and for years I have been saying the same things here but these losers believe and drink hopium and copium

Like a parrot the only mantra of the losers board is undervalued. Do you know about opportunity cost? The capital I have in the past used to enter long or short ITV is deployed elsewhere. Yours is sitting waiting for a bi-annual divi while it has lost value because you are definitely underwater and like every loser here waiting to get your money back and cheer for the 9% you made. I suppose it is a better than a savings account or a mugs version of a bond issued by a retail bank

Mate have you seen take over deals happening elsewhere? By this time there should have been an offer on the table. There is nothing of the sort.

Everyone in hiding once again. Stay with heads under sand losers

Reality is you have been mugged once again. Fool proof play since June. Get the price above the long term descending trend line at 82p run it to 82.90 getting the lemmings to believe and then reverse back down and close below 80p. That is not a convincing close above 81p I was mentioning yesterday.

Mugged again because the lame dame does nothing and let's things drag on looking for a price to save her dignity after the total and abject failure she has been

There is only one real divergence there and it's the one I mentioned between Sep 22 and Feb 24. This has fully played out.

You are forgetting the Hidden bearish between Feb 23 and Jun 25 which is still in force and hasn't been negated yet.

This is what you get by not having a bias

Right since BushyTail cannot recognise a divergence even if it smacked him on the head and to avoid any of you acting on misinformation let me tell you what's going on technically regarding divergences. First you need to understand that It is a technical piece of analysis. Second, you do not immediately act upon it but you wait for confirmation (what that is and how it manifests, I suggest you study). Thirdly, the presence of a divergence even with confirmation of a reversal in price does not mean guaranteed success as outside factors like a significant RNS announcement or a geopolitical event can negate it.

Now on BushyTailed nonsense.

There was a regular bullish divergence on a monthly timeframe between Sep 22 and Feb 24 that has already played out and finished in July 24. There was also a hidden bearish divergence, the hidden ones are stronger here, Feb 23 and Jun 25 which also looks like it has fully played out (Nov needs to close).

Playing divergences on a monthly timeframe requires patience and years for them to play out. Thus big pockets and ability to stomach big fluctuations. So BushyTailed even thinking at a monthly level is total nonsense.

On the weekly front.

There is a hidden bullish divergence 7 April 2024 and 27 Oct 2025 that is confirmed but since we are at a resistance level the jury is out if it will continue or not. Thus if you want to buy you are buying at a local top and drinking the bid cool-aid.

On the daily front

You have a hidden bearish divergence (remember hidden ones are stronger in my experience) between 15 Sep and 12 Nov that is not confirmed yet and will require 2 more signals for me, which I shall not say here to trigger a potential short opportunity. Since of course we are in Mickey Mouse time and allegedly bid negotiations are taking place (I doubt they are serious), shorts are ill-advised and more than likely would be a speculative action or a hedge to against longs.

Still waiting for you Bushy to show me the bullish divergence on the monthly lol

Short reduction is retrospective - They closed long before you could ever take advantage. It is a meaningless thing to track. If there were options volume now that would be a thing

BushyTailed where do you see the divergence on the monthly? There was one in Feb 2024 and now there is a bearish one from June. Tell me where to draw the lines amateur

Thankfully the world of investing is full of thickos I thank you for your service.

I make money on ITV whatever the scenario is. It is called being astute

You seem very sure Jed that this will hit 1 pound. It is part of this copium that you all have had since you were buying at 1.6, 1.2 wishful thinking without thinking. Your brains are mash because you stubbornly believe this will rise.

This is why you are cannon fodder to us really clever traders. This is why we have been making money shorting this dog while you were crying and groveling to your wives that one day you will be proven right and you will get your money back from your dumb investment and the really poor execution of your trades.

And this is your lesson. You will at best get your money back whereas I have made thousands on ITV by playing the clever game.

Jed you are getting you literal knickers in a twist. I have never said it is going to 50p. Tom said that.

I had ITV from 64 which I previously sold at 80ish. look thru my history. I have also shorted ITV heavily and made more out of that than being long.

I am a trader not a dumb bury your head in the sand investor like you and others here who just blindly buy every dip. I consider the wider context in my decisions and technicals. So yes if I see a convincing break above 82p then yes something has changed. What convincing means I will not tell you because even if I did you wouldn't understand it.

McCall is after legacy not money anymore and rest assured she will be paid off handsomely by the establishment if she were to leave. The old hag wants fame and craves for it. She has done a poor job at ITV and she knows it so a BBC chief job would be a 2nd chance. Do not forget incompetence within corporations get promoted upwards so that they are out of the way

The price is presently capped at the longer term descending trend line from 2023. If it breaks above 82p convincingly I will think about buying but at the moment I think this is another pump and dump scheme just like the buybacks were and all the previous rumours. This is enabling Liberty and other players to exit of course.

I will laugh so hard if nothing come if it and like lambs you have been led to the slaughter.

Please take her - I will personally pay for an UBER XL or Premium to take her to BBC HQ. Please let it be good riddance of the lame dame.

If that were to happen I am buying ITV - That would be my signal

To whoever bought my 1000 shares in this held from 700p :) :)
