Very good to have you back wyn!
(incidentally, and you weren't know, PL75 used to hold RMS; maybe still does!)

PL you did get your Rec in the end, for your post Coughs and Sneezes as I screen grabbed it and sent to wife (WFH in the other room) as she's had a headache and running nose all weekend.

PL, you know, I was pondering posting this – well something very similar – just 5 mins ago, but decided it could have the opposite effect:
'PL, just gave you a Rec for sticking to Positive Sentiment and not getting drawn into a subject you'd left behind'.
I mean it too. What a shame you let us down.

Woodstock, you didn’t say; was the engagement ring for your gf?

Cheers Wyn! I will monitor closely (as the tech is interesting) but I understand exactly what you're saying there regarding failing to hold gains and, in fact, further falls.
As for Eve, we could get an Eve update RNS the-week-after-next with a date for the July TU.
June TP figures are indicating a slight softening for Eve (75 reviews in 13 days) with us heading for perhaps 175 reviews, give or take, and last June – 2020 – was 197 reviews. Still, only 13 days in and we could get a burst of reviews at the start of the week and that could bring us back to par.

Shawshank Redemption: “How can you be so obtuse?”
Warden Norton:” What? What did you call me?”
(Mild by your standard PL :-)

WillHunt, you wrote:'Trusted the charts. The charts according to Wyn were pointing south this week. Then news moved it north. News has always controlled this stock. News made us drop. News. Not charts. News. This fella is ******* bonkers.’

Now, I am not especially bright – I get by – but even I can very easily understand what wyn has said and he never said what *would* happen based on the charts, just what was more likely than not based on herd instinct and how the herd usually deals with the situation as it was. I don't actually remember back more than a few posts but Wyn usually says *IF* this happens, then *that* might follow (based on herd behaviour).

(My interpretation of herd behaviour might be similar to saying 'If someone shouts 'fire' then the most likely crowd behaviour would be for people to run for the exits. Did I say there *would* be a person shouting 'Fire'? No I didn't. And if news breaks that a sprinkler system has just been finished then the herd behaviour might react to the news differently. And people here dispute that..)

Nor is it true to say, PL, that you haven't found his posts un-interesting; if you hadn't you wouldn't even have had a dialogue and you certainly wouldn't continue to be as gratuitously rude as you are – and I thought you saw green boxes when wyn writes anyway? If you're not interested, just ignore; it's SO simple.

Anyway, thankfully wyndrum is thick-skinned enough to carry on sharing his views on the charts and his own view of AVCT's prospects in this continuing pandemic.

I don't actually trade (wish I were lucky enough to be able to make the trades work). I top up on the dips and even some of the spikes so I'm not a user of 'the charts’ though, like everyone, I look at previous prices (doesn’t that mean everyone relies on TA to some extent?) To me, anyone here who ignores useful data in such an important area as buying a selling valuable chunks of stock reminds me of a line in the Shawshank Redemption. I'll save it for if I need it; see if you spot it.

Bank balance '£6m to £5m' is what I meant to write, and in a fairly short time.

Not sure if you'll pop in over the weekend Wyn, but you've probably heard of RMS. I sold out completely a couple of days ago as they came out with more bad news.
The thing is, I wonder if they might not be a little like Eve, but a year or two behind – so still in fairly dire straights. The bank balance has gone to £5m from £6m; they don't have a CEO, and seem to be late to the market with a covid mask that's not selling particularly well.
However I do see that they have potential with their copper nono-tech. Once I have a bit more spare cash I may buy a small amount and try to trade it to a larger amount. Do you see any potential there? Not asking you to do research on my behalf but you have a good sense of what has potential from the charts.
The first boost will be if they hire someone good, perhaps in 2 or 3 months.. I think 'someone good' will take some persuading to join the ship, which is why I sold.
I have no attachment so it'd be an easy one to trade.

The photo in The Times shows the LFT being held; it should be on a flat stable surface. Not the correct way to use it, even if it is rubbish.
Getty Images for you..

Indian is the 4th variant; Delta is the 4th letter in Greek alphabet. They are the same.
Gamma - Brazil variant/P1
Beta - South Africa variant/B1351
Alpha - Kent variant/B117

Username, this is something I posted a couple of weeks ago:
'last year they gave us the release date of TU (up to 30 June) on June 23rd, a Tuesday. The actual TU was in July.
So I have pencilled in Tuesday June 22nd for the same notification, or maybe it'll come on the 23rd again, so a Wednesday.'.
All imo of course.

Not that it’s terribly interesting but I made a small top up here as I sold out of RMS on news there. Seems like RMS had £6m in the bank; now £5m, and they are not doing well at getting their main product out. I’ve been through that with eve but now, fortunately, eve are now doing well at getting their main product out.

Eve’s Cheryl Calverley: Stop chasing data perfection
https://www.marketingweek.com/eve-perfect-customer-data/
Marketers should stop wasting time and energy striving for the perfect dataset by listening to consumers and proving the commercial impact of a fantastic customer experience, says the Eve Sleep CEO.
(Is it just me or do we have more of these articles 'between' news. Fair enough; good way to get interest in the company during the flat patches.)

'Morphée sleep aid review: Is the £80 device really worth the money? 100,000 people already own one – should you add one to your bedroom too?'
Eve don't seem have exclusive rights to sell in the UK (Available for £79.95 on www.morphee.co, with a 100 nights return policy) but they do seem to be the people to go to for UK buyers. Be good if 100,000 (50,000 would do) bought one from Eve

Maybe info will arrive in due course for evesleep.fr Thanks for something I'd missed completely.
Have just seen this headline (which has a link that won't work for me). Anyway, unless the headline misrepresents the article, it seems to be good news:
'The Independent
9 best white noise machines that will suit you to sleep
The best white noise machine is for 2021 are: Best overall – Eve sleep morphee sleep aid: £79,'

Personally, I like the extras. It makes eve stand out a bit from the other manufacturers and undoubtedly boosts brand awareness. I bet they will indeed sell a few morphee gadgets for Father's Day. And there is a lot of money in pyjamas these days; I know two people who have designed PJs for sale in high street stores. I would like them to increase their PJ range and not just for Christmas.

I've impressed myself: Just found a screen grab from January I'd forgotten I'd taken. So these are the approx number of visits the eve site received in the months before the current graph begins:
Dec 20; just under 200k visits
Nov 2020 (Black Friday) just over 300k visits
Oct 200k
Sept 270k
August 185K
July 160K – all approx reading from the line on the chart.
So the May figure of 222.91k visits to eve site seems perfectly respectable.

It's the lack of French data that's the main issue, and Eve uk is still searchable with the slight redesign of the site:
https://www.similarweb.com/website/evesleep.co.uk/#overview
May traffic was down 6.2% on April.

https://www.similarweb.com/website/evesleep.co.uk/?competitors=evematelas.fr
They've updated but most of the info is missing.
I don't recall the number of visits in April so the May figure (Total Visits 222.91K) could be up or down.
We were 67 and now we're 68 in the category rank which could be down to us doing well but someone else doing even better.
Anyone remember how many visits in previous months?
I hope they'll add the info later.

PJx, from your description I do think I may have been one of the people (how perceptive of you not to call us 'friends') who said your car was utter rubbish.. It's a few weeks – maybe months – ago now but if it was a 'P' reg Mazda 323 (and I get a hint from your handle that it was) then I'm absolutely sure it's you.
TBH, the car was fine; were it anyone else who'd bought such a classic car from their grandma we'd have been a tad envious, but we really just didn't take a shine to you – and that's being kind. Anyway, it's great to read your latest posts (such as "Hope all you angry posters didn’t buy in at 4p though!, that would be hilarious") and realise you've really learned to make yourself – and it's all relative you'll understand – a lot more popular these days ;-)
(Apologies to most for this tripe; I spent a short while on it and didn't want to waste the effort!)
