Optimus: --- sorry to hear that ,---- yes the markets are a bit unsettled atm . especially the Dax -- Managed a few points of a short and a long but it's a bit " topsy turvy " still atm ------ GS: ----- have you taken some profit from Ashtead or not yet ???? ----- I'm still down a bit on AV, IMG, & TSCO ---- but not looking that bad overall , could be a lot worse !!!!---- Looks like lower to come on the Markets atm but fingers are firmly crossed for some sort of a Santa Rally soon --- GLA ----

I really have no desire to "fall out" with you sir about something that we both can only make an assumption on in this case !!!--- I'm merely pointing out to you that your post about Peel Hunt and their change of recomm. can be clearly explained as i have outlined !!!--- It may or may not have happened this way , this time but was entirely possible given the nature of Brokering Houses like Peel Hunt !!!--- They did release a "reduce" note with a lower target price because of the falling SP and they did issue a "buy " note when the stock had gone seriously daily RSI oversold at around 136p ---- These facts cannot be disputed !!!--- So in that respect, as i posted at the start of this thread ---they have got it spot on as far as i can see !!!!--- Any more than that and i would need a crystal ball --- Perhaps Peel Hunt can give you their reasoning themselves if you care to give them a call ??? --- I really think you and i may have exhausted our assumptions in this case !!!-- Gl sir ----

With respect sir i really do think that you have missed a very basic point here in the way that Brokering Houses act towards / with their major clients on a daily basis ??? --- Unlike you and i ( well me anyway) ---- Peel Hunt would probably have E-mailed or directly contacted their major clients in late tuesday trading with a buy note .--- It began its rise to 141 by close ----- follow thru' buying then on wednesday morning i would expect occurred before the rest of us mere mortals were even aware of their change in recomm. direction !!!!!--- Then again it could all have been some form of market manipulation -----who knows for sure ???? --- GL sir ------

Market levels falling like nine-pins ------- a sea of red again tomorrow if this continues !!!!!! --- 300 point swings on both Dow and Dax today --Ftse100 looks set to breach 6000 !!!! ---- shocking !!!-- GLA -----

Long order triggered again for a few more pts. !!!--- GLA ----- AHT seems to have topped out today around that 1128 level ??? ---

Reason why not !!!! ---- Peel Hunt still have the same target of 200p --- They issue a "reduce" recomm. -----price drops to around 136p intraday ---- goes seriously short term daily rsi oversold ---- they note this and jump back in with a "buy" recomm . ---- price rise to 166p today ----- Seems to me that they've got everything spot on so far , wouldn't you say ??? -- Let's see what they say tomorrow !!!!--- I averaged down yesterday and am now almost back in the black !!! -- GL sir ----

Managed to offset almost all current ETO losses with Dax/ Dow longs from the afternoon lows !!!--- Out of everything atm ---time to wait and watch a little ---- Finspreads platform playing up for me so using it thru' City Index atm. ---- GL ----

Lol----- yes , Tech Advisor has AVAST as one of the top free antivirus software packages for 2015 !!!-- Panda Pro 2015 that Optimus uses comes with very high ratings also ------ the Free version being just as good for private use as the Pro for business use apparently ( sorry Optimus ) ---- I'm glad i topped up( averaged down ) on ETO yesterday at 141p ----allowed me to close out two long positions leaving just two open long positions --- gives me an overall 172p price, so not that much in the red now at all GL ----

Mine's a nice bottle of something deep red GS !!!!!!--- GL --- nice purchase -----

My AVG anti-virus has just updated and given me something called AVG Zen ???? --- Have removed it completely and installed AVAST !!!--- Comments anyone ??? -- GLA -----

Morning All ----- GS :--- yes, nice buy yesterday into Ashtead ---i've been in and out a lot of times over the last couple of years and made good money but missed it this time unfortunately !!!--- Optimus:-- yes, slippery slope still very much in tact this morning ---my Tesco and Aviva and IMG all back to suare one i'm afraid --- ETO ticked up a bit , i see !!!--- Difficult trading times , i'll have to start going short more often than i have of late !!!--- Hanging on to these longs just ain't cutting the mustard atm (lol) ---- GL all------

Evening All ---- just got back in ---- just as well i've had a couple of drinks , will help me ignore the sea of red until tomorrow !!!---- Optimus :--- if you'd have stuck with your RDSB buy in plan at 1503 you would be a few quid up now !!!---- ETO is a longer hold than i was anticipating now unless a bid or two materialises perhaps ??? ---- Almost everything on the slippery slope ----- Dow, Dax & Ftse100 plummeting !!!!-- The pundits early in the year may prove to be correct on market year end levels !!-- The US has got to raise interest rates as well yet ---what's that going to do i wonder to an already depressed market ????? ---- Spent a damn fortune today ----last thing i wanted to see was my PF doing a downturn as well ---- May have to break out a few bottles in a minute for a top-up to drown my sorrows !!!!---(lol) ----- GLA -----

Again ---more damn christmas shopping ( lol) ----- GLA -----

Down to below rights issue price and bounced a tad ------- extremely unsettling atm. with no news !!!--- The last RNS about the refinancing was a positive step , surely , --- wasn't it ??? --- GLA -----

Good Luck with your purchases !!!-- Lots of things including AHT, RDSB , TSCO, ETO, PMO to name but a few are now due a technical bounce --- Let's see where it's all going (lol) --- GL----

So good luck Optimus if you are thinking of going into RDSB !!!--- It's approaching daily RSI oversold in the short -term and brokers are all still positive but technically the signs are still fairly dodgy for oil atm !!!--- GLA -----

Yes ETO taken another hit this morning, i see !!!!!--- What's going on is anybodies guess but i'll have to hang on in there for a while longer !!!-- Optimus : -- well done on EZJ !!--- Oilies all taking a battering atm. ----PMO , ENQ , RDSB etc, all falling fast ----the Saudies are holding fast & firm on their over production levels apparently so possibly lower to come for oil --- So good luck Optimus if you are thinking of going in RDSB !!!---- it's appproaching dailyb rsi oversold in the short -term but technically and brokers are all still positive the signs are still fairly dodgy for oil atm ---- GLA ----- bought some Tesco yesterday at 52 week lows ---fingers crossed (lol) ----

NOW even !!!-- GLA ----

Well, i would say that something " underhand " is possibly going on atm. ------manipulation , panic selling , call it what you like but nothing falls this far so fast without a very good reason and as yet i really don't see one !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!---- GLA ----- one thing it's favour is that no it is so technically oversold short-term that a bounce is almost a given any time soon !!!!!---

MetalGuru .----- GL both ----
