Yeah it doesn't work all ways. SAR goes up then normally PYC does and then VAL to a lesser extent. However, SAR went up last week and I didn't see PYC rise though VAL did a little. Must be something going on at PYC or else maybe sentiment for the "love triangle" has dropped off. VAL is still a great punt now that it's dropped tho.

AH ok. In that case I don't think it's possible unles you've seen it done before. Problem is this particular site does not support what I would call standard forum HTTP protocols. So in the instructions I gave you below, on any "normal" forum site I would simply paste the entire URL for my picture which would INCLUDE the [IMG] and [/IMG] parts. The system SHOULD then interpret those keywords and embed the contents of the URL in the post. LSE doesn't support this though so unless it has some other kind of unique protocols I don't think it is possible. If I'm wrong I'd love to know what key words it uses.

I was also in SAR prior to it's previous big rise which did me very nicely. It's a nice share which I think will keep spiking any time there is a hint of a new successful drug. If you're in there it's also worth being in PYC and in VAL as PYC previous was linked to SAR and though it isn't now people still expect PYC to do whatever SAR does. So if people rush into SAR on a rumour they also tend to pile into PYC and VAL.. VAL has recently taken a big drop so currently bargain prices for a while. GL

Happy to help here. To put a link in here that goes straight to a picture you have created, such as a chart, you simply use one of the many free websites that allow you to host pictures. I use www.tinypic.com. It's really easy as follows: 1. Create your chart by doing a Print Screen from whatever site you saw it on 2. Paste your screen into Paint (found in accessories) 3. Edit your picture in Paint as needed and save it as a JPEG pic on your PC 4. Go to www.tinypic.com 5. Click the Browse button and find your JPEG pic 6. Click the UPLOAD button 7. Answer the security question that pops up 8. The site then gives you 3 URL links to your picture 9. Copy the middle one. The one that says [IMG]http etc 10. Paste that URL into your LSE Post BUT REMOVE the [IMG] and [/IMG] chunks at the start and end Job done x

Still watching this after your tip here. Really wanted an entry point somewhere near 300 where it was at least 3 times in the past 2-3 months but it's never happened. I'll keep watching to see what develops. GL.

Interims last year showed the first small glimmer of light with small profit. End of year results though closed the door on that with another reported yearly loss. To find interims this year also showing a loss is very disappointing. Admin costs are double the revenue !! There is something not working with this business model it would seem and though I admire the bunch of directors who are piling their own money into this, I'm not willing to share their gamble. What little I have invested here I'm treating as written off and there is no chance I will be adding to average down. If I get the chance to break even I will take it. This is one BODs that I would love to see stand in front of the Dragon's Den panel to put their business model forward. Loads of enthusiasm for sure, but with losses year on year I can still see Peter Jones with his head in his hands.

Saw your tip for MML on CNR BB, so had a brief glance. Interesting one I think. The charts show that whilst other companies were having a hayday in 2010 and a big fall in 2011, MML actually rose at the tail end of 2010 and well into 2011 before it then presumably got hit by the markets when it dropped from its high of over 500p down to 300p. Could be it was flush during the recession and had time to react. I like the fact that MML has a large £807m Mcap and a relatively low number of shares in issue for that (189m), compare with RRR who's Mcap is £38m but has 880m shares !! This should mean that when the SP moves, it moves quickly (in either direction!). On the charts I see a clear line of support at 300p and 2 lines of resistance at 3.50p and 400p. However the support line has been tested 3 times recently whereas the resistance at 400p only the once. I'm not sure therefore whether now is the right time for me to come in, assuming I wanted to. The more times a support line is attacked, the more chance there is of it breaking. I will certainly keep an eye on this though to see what transpires. Other interesting punts for me include TOMco and good old GKP (which I was in but sold out recently as it appeared it was taking a dive, but then quickly recovered grrrrrrr. Big possibilities there). GL

I dare not hope really Last year's interim report was profitable but by end of year that had changed. This needs some big contracts to be landed I reckon.

This is a penny share. There are 354m shares in issue (ish). If Chan holds say 30% of those then that leaves over 200m in issue. To be restricted to selling no more than 50,000 of these at bid price is not a good sign. It means that: 1. There are no PIs out there (at this time) who want those shares and 2. The MMs themselves do not want to pick up and hold onto these shares The latter is the bigger problem imo. If the MMs dont believe this is tradeable then there's obviously a problem. If great news were imminent they would know about it and snap your hand off when you sell. Anyway, bygones, I managed to get out for a small loss as I needed the funds elsewhere. GL for the longer term.

I'm sure LED like most companies will come good in the longer term. The point I was making is that currently either no-one is interested in these shares, i.e there is literally no demand or that the MMs here are simply ripping people off rather blatantly. The auto trading happily accepts a sell price of 0.32 but it's a nonsense because it only applies for £154's worth of shares. The MMs won't take anything off you unless you accept a 0.30p price which is pretty pathetic. The upshot of this to investors is to know that if you come in here now, it has to be for the long term because you can not get back out without paying the MMs their large pound of flesh. As shares go, it's the only one I have ever experienced this kind of "mafia" like treatment. To iterate, I can buy, automatically online, well over 500,000 of these (£2000s worth) and probably much much more at the press of a button. Yet I can not sell more than a mere £154s worth in the same way. Anyway you cut it, the MMs have clearly got millions of these they need to shift. No-one is buying, and presumably many would like to sell. GL with the long haul approach, I'm sure it will come good, just not one for me at this time.

I finally managed to out of here today but as you found ut earlier I had to settle at 0.30p. You can sell at 0.32p but only 50,000 shares (£154s worth) which is quite pathetic. I needed the funds for more lucrative opportunities. Essentially no-one wants these shares it seems and the MMs can essentially hold you to ransom as a result. Caveat Emptor.

Yep, you can get a price (0.32p) to sell a mere 50,000 shares which at this level is utterly ridiculous !!!! Thre are 354 million shares in issue and the markets won't take even 75000 off you. If you have money in here it's locked up tighter than Fort Knox (unless I assume you're willing to take a huge hit on the price you want)

I concur. I have about 300K and can't sell. Fill/Kill order was rejected. Not a good sign when the MMs don't want your shares.

So you claim to have shares in TSTL but you've never posted here on LSE before. You reckon to have some inside info which makes you want to sell and instead of just selling you actually take the time out to register for the first time here on LSE and make a post to tell as many people about this news as possible ! Doesn't sound rational to me old bean. One of the worst deramps I've seen yet. Note of course that your post is entirely full of libel, whether the comments are from your "contact" or not, YOU still decided to post them up on a public forum, that makes YOU liable for the consequences. Not a good move to be honest. Suggest you let your contact fight his own fight by gathering the necessary evidence and dealing with the matter in a court of law if indeed he has that.

Always encouraging to see directors buyng shares. RNS from 14th June: "Paul Swinney, Chief Executive Officer, today bought 10,000 ordinary shares of 1 pence each . . .at a price of 28.5p per Ordinary Share. . . . Mr Swinney now holds 1,092,742 Ordinary Shares, representing 2.73% of the issued share capital of the Company." http://www.tristelplc.com/pdf/Directors%27%20Dealings%2015%2006%2012.pdf

I believe the main reason for this share's behaviour is that the are very few shares available. I looked at ths back in Jan/Feb and if I remember right it's about 9 million. This is because the lion's share of the pot is owned by the BOD and large investors. Thus with almost any buy/sell even of small volume, the SP moves quickly. A number of people love it for this reason but it makes for a slow burn. You could buy in at say 0.38 and set a limit order up to sell at say 0.45 automatically and make an easy 18%-20% ish, just set it up and let it do it's thing. I suspect some regs here have already bought loads of the small available shares, have made their positions and now are just sitting on them until RIIG makes its first profitable year return. My advice to RIIG would be to issue more shares, get more liquidity and encourage trading. B ut hey ho!

Ok it's downward movement but movement nonetheless. Seems a harsh drop in SP though for so few people selling up.

They will let you buy 100,000 of these easily, but if you try to sell, I find I can only sell 10,000 of them. A mere £36's worth !!! Theyclearly want buyers !

Enlighten me please. PPI (Payment Protection Ins) is the "big thing" currently flooding day time TV almost 24x7, not positively I might add, negatively as is "have you been mis-sold PPI?". Billions are being paid back to customers because of mis-selling much lke we saw with endowments years back. Given this and the stigma that now hangs around PPI, why is it a good "thing" for RIIG to be in a PPI related contract? Are we assuming that going forward with people beng much poorer, they will be increasingly forced to take out loans and be forced at that point to also take PPI ? All seems a bit spewy to me. Doubtless I'm missing something here and I apologise if so. I'd be very happy for you regs to explain it to me.
