This appears to be the most stable I have seen this in a while, hopefully slowly up as the day goes on.

Don't need nothing dramatic at this stage as it usually goes backwards afterwards.

November 1st, typically after blackout period

Nice 1st ;0)

Apologies, I cannot write. Time for sleep and may the morning bring good luck and fortune to all.

Interesting reading all the different comments on here tonight, I have no idea either way what way this will go, deep down I probably do ;0( if I did I guess I would be very rich my now.

I like the confirmation at the end of the RNS which sounds really positive but may just me trying to find good news to assure myself.

I'm sure I read BB to BB+ like others, confirmation bias on my side and wanting to see just the good things.

My mistake , I guess we will see what tomorrow brings

That's great news , the credit upgrade should help nicely tomorrow.

Fully agreed, I've learnt quite a bit from observing the comments from all sides, sometimes it does make you wonder if you can trust anyone . I do see a few on here that seem genuine.

Didn't even know what DYOR stood for but fully agree with this term ??.

Anyway, back to observe mode for me and keep the discussion going.

Fully agreed, I think it's down to us all getting battered on the share price for the last few weeks.

It's nice to see this share have a nice slow rise up for a change instead of the rapid rise and then fall, as you pointed out 15% on Friday and almost 4% today.

That's good with me, my loses are slowly reducing. That's the main thing ;o)

If the Q3 results are good this will just add to the share price increase

Same as, fingers crossed this comes good for all the longer term guys that have really been through the ringer.

It's definitely bizarre behaviour especially when you see on twitter customers raising concerns which will only amplify, there is a standard reply to each one. As soon as a bad story appears in the papers people will panic further, I've lost a fair bit here.

I wonder if it's due to being just before results

Quick question, are the shorts having to fight hard to knock the value down here i.e. spending crazy amounts against buyers or are they just manipulating and slowly taking down a couple of % everyday i.e. couldn't they just smash it hard and make a killing then get out?

Feel your pain, I'm in the same boat.

Was about to hit the trade button last week when it was up around 3.10+, it's a good lesson for me in self control and not getting greedy.

I will make the money back, it will just take some time. I hope this ends up well for everyone involved and you get what you need out of it.

I'm also learning what a ruthless business this

Yep, and learning the hard way, interesting to observe the different dynamics and characters on the board

What I don't understand is all these large buys and its still not moving or being knocked down, buy seems to massively outweigh sell.

Are these algorithms really that strong, anyone got a link so I can understand these a bit more. I love a good technical read.

Thanks appreciate your response, this Metro business has taught me a lot of lessons and learning more everyday ;o)

No chance of me trying to short, saying that given my luck with buying shares. If I attempt to start shorting this it will start going up.

Fingers well away from trade button until I do more learning

HI,

I'm still new to this game and learning, I'm invested here for the good or bad and finding the chat interesting.

Just a question, why would you buy and then loan and potentially risk losing your money, is it the rent they get from the share loaned out that makes it worth it. Otherwise, why would you loan someone your share to effectively destroy.

Looking at the buys and sells, there are a large amount of buys but the small algorithm shares just batter anything, I find this interesting given most are tiny compared to larger buys.

Hi All,

I don't have the same insight as a lot of you (don't have l2) or anything like that so a bit blind, what do you make of a few large buys 140k+?

Interested to get peoples take on this from a newbie perspective.

Thanks for your response, definietely don't disagree with your comments. Learning is a life long skill for me ;o)

That's a fair point about the directors, probably me just venting my frustation. I've worked for a couple of IT security start ups where I have been lucky enough to get shares prior to acquisition, even if they knew somthing was going on they wouldn't admit it.

As you say the shorters know their game, I don't really resent them. Just shows people like me have a lot to learn about this industry.

I will keep reading and hopefully learning.

Hi All,

I've only just joined the forum recently and been reading for the last month others comments, I've been doing fairly well from Funds over the last few years, so I thought I would try buying shares directly.

I've done okay out of shares like Saga which I think may have given me a bit of over confidence, brought into Metro and increased having seen the price going up. Managed to get some at 250, 290 and today at 190..... Each time thinking I was into a winner.

Probably down around 20k On 60K worth of investment at the moment, at first I was angry and the shorters but then realised it was my own mistake and despite warning signs I was getting too excited over what it could be. I have been taught a valuable lesson today.

The directors seem incompetent, the shorters appear to know that something is happen (meant to be illegal to inside trade) plus all the professional rampers/derampers makes me wonder if it's plain old luck whether you win or lose.

I'm now in the age old dilema wondering if this will come good or go down... can it get any worse. Probably so, but what if it gets taken over.

I've decided not to invest any more of my money until this is over and take a few months to reflect on this, I hope all the people with losses come good.
