The stock has retreated from its high and is meandering around the 2.7 mark. I would imagine people are seeing the way it has behaved in the last month (spike, retreat, consolidate, spike and repeat) and are wondering where the floor is to get in on. I personally think 2.7 is where it will stay for a few days then there may be more positive sentiment next week.

Lord Houghton doesn't start as chairman until the first of October so they don't even have their leadership team in place yet. They have targeted December for the rollout of Project Ixian so the proof will be in the pudding then. Seems like this could be just the start as the personnel they have involved have a wealth of military experience to say the least, so I think they have more physical world applications in their sights going forwards.

I am a long term hold for reference.

This chat thread is fraught with people saying that AJBell & Interactive Investor keep blocking trades. a colleague of mine has moved his ISA to Trading212 because they seem to be able to facilitate it. Might be a problem with your trade size mind I don't know.

I used Hargreaves Lansdown for mine as although I got stung for a little on trade fees I am keeping some money in this for the long term so I didn't mind if it meant actually being able to buy in!

After all the volatility we’ve had it can be difficult to see the bigger picture, the reason I invested wasn’t to make a quick few quid it was because I believed in the company.

Sitting here now I’d gladly have the share price where it is because anyone who listened to the SLT conference knows they have a lot in the pipeline, the odd storm in a teacup will be completely forgotten as soon as they can put concrete news out there.

I’m holding what I have for now because I’ve committed a lot of my spare cash to it but it’s all plain to see on their x page:

Looks like for all the negativity the aye’s have it!

Yes the derampers really are scraping the bottom of the barrel when this is the hill they’re dying on. This shares account for one third of 1% of the shares in circulation!

That amount probably gets traded by others every half hour during a busy period of which there have been many. It’s a drop in the ocean

Just post your honest views regardless of what they are, the reason people are sceptical of you Stockmaiden is for the last few days you have been slandering the stock as if your high school bully was the director then all of a sudden you’re it’s biggest fan and then back again!

Just comes across poorly when you type out every single thought that goes through your head sometimes seemingly with the intention of de-stabilising things by just floating rhetorical questions rather than anything of substance.

Yes of course it’s a forum and you’re free to post anything you want but when someone takes issue with it then there isn’t really a moral high ground to be had either way.

Speaking of trades I’ve just seen there was a £69k buy at 16:35 someone is confident!

Tomorrow is a new day, and we've seen a lot can happen in just a few hours!

Worth putting into perspective they're about three months into a five year plan, and Lord Houghton hasn't even started as non-executive chairman yet (1st of October.) Note this is the same Lord Houghton who has been heavily involved in everything defence and security as far as the UK Government is concerned for about 15 years.

Early days but with a bit of 'YOR' it's not hard to see why there are plenty of eyes on this one

Haha always be careful what you wish for! It's easy to get carried away when numbers start to get crazy.

I'm cautiously optimistic about an uptick however. I was discussing earlier regarding Ixian being a tool to fight misinformation and today's whitepaper really dials in on the narrative of there being a cyber warfare 'frontline.'

Guess that ties into what the CTO was discussing in the video conference, when he mentioned moving at a wartime pace. After what happened with the fallout from the Southport attack and the subsequent uptick in aggressive rhetoric online leading to mass protests, I wouldn't be surprised if the government sees this as a real crisis that needs to be addressed.

Yeah I'd be very happy if it does! Appetite for a run is yet to be determined after the volatility this morning but still early days, want time to hurry up I'm very interested to see where it goes in the coming months as well as the coming hours haha

Exactly, we'll see what shakes out this afternoon as it was near yesterday's close when it really kicked up. Glad to see 2.7p was where things stabilised as it gives me confidence that will be the low tested if it drops again.

Seems like the day traders have cleared off and a lot of the riff raff too coincidentally

Read instead of looking

I have an ISA with HL and it did come a cropper when it came to short term deals, lovely platform for long term holdings

Yeah plenty of people on II and AJBell jumping ship, trading212 has been great for me. Careful on HL's fees mind, got have a lot of conviction!

Also nice to see 2.92 I think the smoke has cleared

well to be honest i've never been part of a startup but you'd have to be a little naive to say the least if you didn't have a stake in the firm. and good on you if you're on 100k+ and have this much free time! i'm not one to judge but personally i'd be in the sunshine ****tail in hand rather than trawling forums trying to ruin people's days

Yeah the wave riders seem to have gone, 2.7p seems to be where things are stabilising and I don't mind that seeing as we were there yesterday, a lot of hot air at the minute but seems to be clearing up

Exactly. Klarna's ipo made millionaires out of many people that trusted the process and took share options rather than salary because I for one could get by fine on 80k a year if i thought a million was around the corner!

Congrats. Does beg the question though as to why you've spent all morning trying your best to put a stain on the face of humanity when you earn 160k a year. Can think of a long list of things I'd rather be doing, unless that is if you're not telling the truth?

Can't take you seriously when you start a post with lol.

Guess you can add 'software engineer' to that list of non-existent achievements too lol.

You've done enough damage here 'real talk' and I think I speak for a lot of people when I say we're starting to get bored of you. You can add 'knocked defence holdings down a peg or two' to what I'm sure is a very long list of personal achievements.

I hear Orosur Mining has doubled in price recently maybe knocking that back could be another feather in the cap?
