Bought into this the other day on the back of the Zachs' research note and subsequent commentary and research. Does anyone here have an explanation for or an idea about why there are so many low volume / value trades here - i.e., 3 or 2 shares bought at a time - or 10?

Thanks in advance.

Well they lost the business unit director in December I believe - but I think that chap was replaced, by Adam Gooch - sounds like business development managers would work under him, so either he's further building his team or he's replacing people who have moved onto what they believe are greener pastures. Could even be both of course.

Broadly, the constant turnover of staff worries me - but I don't know enough about the industry to know whether this is normal. I think I asked something about this before, so apologies if it's already been answered.

*Trading is a mugs game*

For you maybe

...I've had an extremely successful 12months day/week trading.

Whereas my long-term holds, are down. If I'd traded them I would have many more shares.

People normally criticize something they can't get their head around.

Interestingly, a new job advert appeared today for a 'product approval engineer' - in fact, all recent jobs are engineering / quality control type posts. Makes you wonder.

"Trakm8 is a market leader in the fast-growing vehicle telematics market sector. Based in Coleshill and other UK locations but with a global marketplace Trakm8 is well placed to take advantage of current market opportunities. Increased fuel costs, reduction in operating costs and numerous employment laws such as Duty of Care are all driving increased interest in our products and services. With our own on-site manufacturing facility, we can offer our customers the end-to-end service, from Production to Sale, and as such we now have an opening for an experienced Product Approvals Engineer to join our established Operations team here at our Head office in Coleshill on a full time, permanent basis."

I like the 'driving increased interest' bit.

Let's hope increasing demand for quality-controlled stock, rather than tech problems is the reason for the recruitment.

Yes, I thought so too.
Odd that there's been nothing.

Agree Pokerchips. These BBs have zero influence on share price movements. I suspect though that some do sell (and buy for that matter) on the basis of nonsense posted here.

Interesting drop - I wonder if news is on it's way.
Will top up if it gets near a £1 again.
Absolute bargain here at the moment.

In terms of timing, I would expect it to be inline with previous years last week of April.
What we got a short while ago, was a profit warning, so it was outside of the normal market update schedule, which I would expect them to stick to.

I suspect we'll get very little new information.
Possibly some forward-looking guidance, but I wouldn't count on it.
Now driving lessons have resumed, I'm hoping that an uptick in tests and new drivers hitting the road has an impact on our numbers.
SB should also get a lift.
Also hopeful that DVS has impacted positively on the business.

There’s no pay wall that I encountered.
What it says is that these companies have advanced to the next round of talks. Bids on the table in May apparently.

Ah, not after all.!

Back to sleep it is then.

Don't worry folks it will come good here, IMHO.

*80's*

Yes ..over 3 decades ago?
What's your point?

Looks like...

Just maybe...

Pianista: indeed.

I think we all know what happened here.

Back to sleep it is then...

Complete waste of time.
The 'no news' range is well-documented and understood.
Only worth keeping a close eye, when we enter an important news cycle.
IMHO.

Pianista: completely agree.

*one investor or small group of investors could engineer with limited funds, bearing in mind the small free float.*

Very interesting sentiment - one I had shared myself - prompted by recent activity here.

What do you call small amounts?

Depends if there's a big seller, in the background. Some people have clearly taken advantage of the rise today, to unload themselves of the burden of this share. I wouldn't get the beers out just yet...

*most of the trades are small beer*

That's because it's often very difficult to get hold of large amounts without being affected by significant price swings. Whenever I've had large orders filled, it has always happened incrementally.

Coming back to early now. I'd like to see a finish above 18p. Touched 20p earlier. If it is director buys, then there may be a more of a sustained rise after Easter.

Cheers
