Tim, I have never been out since my first purchase in the summer. I ended up trading this stock from around November when it seemed likely to me that Q4 was not going to happen but always kept a core holding of around 40,000 shares. My posting style may have changed due to a couple of factors. One is the constant vile abuse from a few posters every single time I comment which obviously makes it less fun. The other is I am not a "fan" of AVCT per se. Its just a vehicle to try make money from just like any other stock purchase. So, if I felt like many of us did,that expectations had been raised and then not delivered on, it may well have affected my view at the time.
The stupid thing on this board, is that people are too eager to decide they "know" another poster. So even now you are saying "when I was in... when I was out" and I never was out.
I only do this (buy and sell) to make money and the BB's can be a pleasant way to kill some time chewing the fat while waiting for developments. However I also believe in capital protection, so will trim my holdings depending on my view of the risk at given time.
I try and share in good faith what my thoughts and actions are, but that ship would have seemed to have sailed some time ago now as some posters are just abusive for the sake of it towards me.

Of course you have no idea what I am talking about. You don't care what people think of you, and yet you are so anxious to tell others your thoughts of them. (somewhat egocentric). And again, of course you "will leave it here" because you always, have to have the last word.....again possibly full of your own importance?

Egocentric: thinking only of oneself, without regard for the feelings or desires of others; self-centred.
"egocentric loners with an overinflated sense of self-worth"

PL, your vindictive, small mined view only demonstrates your obvious insecurity. Quite why you feel the need to look so crass so often is beyond me. But please realise I don't care what you think... you do know that, don't you?

Hi D, yes, it looks like take off at last after a few false starts. But EVE is looking good today? GLA

probably of less interest now with the developing newsflow but it looks like the SP will have another go at getting above 195p today

I am surprised too Ben, it seems very muted after the cracking first hour.
If we take it at face value I think it must be a lack of demand from new investors. Hopefully this should pick up through press reporting and investment houses informing their clients now its less of a risk.
Hot money cashed in quick, then all us lot (or anyone who has been jn here for awhile or at least before today), have nothing left to top up with, so when the quick profit types left there was not enough volume to push it on.
That's my theory anyway, but like you I am feeling a bit disappointed after the lovely news first thing.
Not even FOMO going on and tomorrow could be the TU!
Still, perhaps a reality check of what the wider community think rather than us in the echo chamber here?

Thanks for being so frank Tom.
If you look at the words you used, "Irrational", "Tempted", "too good to be true" they are emotional terms for what should be or you think is, a rational decision.
You want to get in lower because you are greedy (thats ok, I'm not being rude). If it picks up to 98p you might, (through fear of missing out), buy then instead of now. Fear and greed are 2 of the most powerful human emotions.
The market is not a benign place for people to buy and sell shares. It is actively trying to take money off you for its own gain.
That's why MM's when they can, play around a bit with prices to get the reaction they want from those susceptible to emotional pressure.
Again fwiw I always have a plan, I have 2 exit prices on where I will sell, (one if it goes well, and one if I am wrong and it goes south), and approx. time line and then from there I can judge a risk reward.
I buy at 68p and think 100p is a target. Gain 32p. If I am wrong out at 65p, 3p loss. That is a 10-1 risk reward. ( Brilliant!! anything above 3-I consider adequate).
I don't understand how anyone with their hard-earned cash, buy stocks not knowing why they got in where they did, no idea when they will crystalise the loss if they are wrong and having no idea of a target for when to sell or in what time frame.
Its like backing a horse where you don't know the distance or the odds or when the race will finish, and instead of a £5 each way (which you wouldn't do by the way because that would be madness), you put on £10k to win.

Hi PH25, I know and although I accept the criticism that my posts are all the same, they are in fact different questions on a theme and the theme is people's psychological reaction to price movement. hence my question to Tom.
If Tom for instance as the example, (no offense Tom), believes the SP will be 200p in the next 6 months or so, why is buying at 88p (which may never come) so important to miss buying now at 92p? What is makes Tom believe 88p is worth waiting for (and potentially missing out on buying at 92p), and what is that based on?

Just for conversation Tom, whats so special or significant about the "80's" as a buy in point for you?

Just my opinion Tom, but there is a an RSI reversal pattern in right now with a low of 91.2p My only caution is that it is the 15 minute chart and for longer term then the day chart might be more reliable?
The 15 min chart however shows an RSI down to 36-40 and typically, the rule of thumb being that around 40 oi a rising trend (which AGL is clearly in), is a signal to buy. So, its confirmed range wise and pattern wise.
So, this could be a good entry point using chart technicals.
personally I have lot of faith in the above but its an odds game. It could still go down further in which case that to me would be the exception rather than the rule, but it could easily happern.
Thing is, whatever "system" is used, you have to pull the trigger at some stage. So again personally, just as an example, if I was looking to top up then this it. (I could be wrong, but my experience say Its more likely than not to be the right call). It has fulfilled my criteria therefore I would buy. (what would be the point of ignoring the very system that tends to work more often than it fails?)

Its going to be a swinging day I think. The scale of the rise first thing this morning immediately put the stock into overbought territory and has now sufficiently unwound to allow further rises. Who knows where this will finish today but I would expect above 200p ( it shouldn't be, but I think will be, a psychological barrier for a bit, but will get busted nevertheless.)

Well assuming its my post you are all referring to. (why it could not have been under the thread I posted I am not sure), but jeeze… grow up guys. Whether you approve or like it or not , people do trade stocks. (Shocker!)
I could have said "covid stock" but this is not a Harry Potter Screenplay for goodness sake.
I know some here hold more than one stock and bio pharma's have a lot of what I call hot money, going from one to another to try and surf quick gains.
This stock (oh hell I'll say it) AGL, has had a very sharp increase over the last 30 days. At some time it will have (it has to), to have a day when it goes down and pulls back to technically come out of its overbought status.
All I was saying that today could be the day based on that AVCT,.... sorry another Covid Stock, ...has had good news and therefore that could be the catalyst.
Personally the sooner the better so further gains can take place.
(All stocks are a roulette wheel... We don't if this will get FDA approval do we? We are just assuming it will based on the evidence to hand. That's no different to most bio-pharma's, whatever field they specialise in.)
And lastly when will the penny ever drop that no posts here or any BB, ever affect the SP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gerkin, are you referring to my post "Hot Money"?

Wiggly, it really is going to be difficult to value AVCT right now, so who knows in the next few days where "fair value" now is?
200p is a meaningless figure I think. It will take some time to settle down, in the meantime... HAPPY DAYS!

I imagine some money will come out of here and go into Avacta. Today could be our pullback day

I think its just called Greed, DaP

Phew,... Panic over...

Looks like MM's are short of stock.

Hi Hants, all charts are, are a graphical representation of buys and sells. People buy and sell and people are in fact largely irrational and work off emotional stimuli, fear and greed being 2 of the most powerful. And as a result, as crowds are predictable, so past chart patterns often repeat themselves giving TA proponents an edge.
I would actually take issue with the statement that its Horse sh.t
I have found it to be very helpful. (and profitable).
However, I have found some indicators to more reliable than others. But hey, it normally attracts more abuse than its worth to waste the time even bothering to try to explain the relatively simple concept behind it.

I meant to say...That's fair Res and like I said if its irritates I'll stop. GLA
