Had a couple of top ups as well Watching2. Will be interesting to see if there are some large delayed sells as the volume of buys to sells is totally out of sync. Something doesn't add up. With the exception of the recent placing, Avacta have been a very tight ship re news, so I'm not buying a leak of something negative. I suspect that the volume of post by suspects unknown would point to a targeted attack on the SP...and i also suspect an MM or two have been playing to their own advantage as well. Time will tell and the clock is ticking.

Starting to lose count of how many 10k sells have now come through.

You won't get any reasoning for the £1 target except for the simple fact that those behind the downwards driving of the price are hoping/aiming to get to £1....Iveco is not the first new avatar to mention that price today. Not much we can do except sit back and watch, remind yourself of why you are invested, hope that an RNS catches the scum out...and perhaps add a few more if you have funds.

Lots of 10k sells being dropped in at strategic moments and also in little groups...wonderfully orchestrated.

Oh well, yet another little top up for me while we wait for news. Bitter sweet type of day.

Anyone else notice that Admin are due thanks for removing a very recent post by TW666. Good to see that 'report' button works in getting disruptive nonsense removed so efficiently. Far more effective than simply interacting with such pests.

I'm not 100% certain but i believe that the article that buy_buy_buy is referring to in the Guardian was the same news piece that other press had mentioned on 21st/22nd June re the Optigene test being piloted by the Government.

Other articles about this trial also mentioned "In addition to the new application of using saliva from Optigene being piloted in Southampton, we are currently exploring the potential of other no-swab saliva-based coronavirus tests with companies, including Chronomics, Avacta, MAP Science and Oxford Nanoimaging (ONI).

Flurry of buys expected in the last hour or so of the day. Interesting to see the MMs keep such a wide spread throughout the last few hours. If they keep shorting for the next hour, there's a few who will struggle to close their positions at their intended price....now that would be justice.

Bid dropping 2p with only 3 sells

I was charged £19.50 for mine @SherlockBones

I actually tried a dummy 5000 sell and got NT from 08:00 until 08:03.....from 08:10 until 08:13 i was unable to buy. The risk of actually selling and not getting back in again is far too high as it seems that only those and such as those are able to trade in the first half hour.
I had set a limit trade yesterday morning first thing. I called Barclays at 10am to ask why it didn't complete as it was within the correct range for at least 6 minutes at one point. I was told that it simply didn't go through despite being appropriate for completion....once again, it seems that ability to buy and sell early doors is high risk and sometimes only open to those with some sort of superior access.

Correction: make that 5p and no doubt a little more by the time this post appears. Lol.

Less than £41k of trades (mostly sells) and the SP drops by 3p....I wonder if we'd had the same on the buy side if we'd have gone up by 3p. MMs playing games to get your shares...sit tight.

Is it this one?

All buys bar one...someone feels confident and is happy to take your shares. Follow the money.

Interesting timing. Is news imminent?

looks like they are doing all they can with a massive 5p spread to hold us static

It goes ahead and completes on Wednesday

You really ought to try and keep up with current affairs @cristalball.

Another addition to my green box list: LBM....but only after being reported as a serial stalker

If anyone has paywall access to the Times, perhaps you could confirm, but I think you'll find that the BBC and Times are reporting on the use of PCR testing which is being facilitated by Collinson on the Govt behalf at airports, however The Times continues with a mention of a rapid saliva test being trialled very soon...but with very little detail.
