This news is probably worthy of a "wow". Well done Factom.

[doodlebug4] 18/11/2016 19:36

I've just started watching the golf coverage from the Sea Island tournament on Sky Sports and there's been a "WOW", "AWESOME", in the first five minutes!:-)

[doodlebug4] 18/11/2016 18:57

Agreed bdog, I find these silly "wow", "awesome", "exciting", comments on the Twitter feed really irritating, it's part of the problem within the different cultures between the USA and the UK.

I understand your frustrations namkrad, I feel it too. Sentiment can turn around very quickly though, once we get some positive news to restore confidence.

Couldn’t help but notice a marked increase in the tweeting again this week. On the FFWD Twitter feed so far this week, we’ve had these (rather irritating) comments: Amazing! Great news! Awesome news! Excellent! ..and Awesome!

Well that’s certainly not how I’d describe the share price right now. Dreadful or dire perhaps?

All that said, I’m expecting to see a good bounce off these low levels (yes, I still feel optimism about the prospects here, mainly because of the quality of the investments we have). After all it’s been a long enough wait for us all with no tangible news to keep investors’ interest / confidence. Our time will come (hopefully).

Namkrad and any other shareholders who feel so strongly I suggest you contact Jim Mellon directly, it will surely prove more effective than venting frustrations on a public bulletin board. For your info I spend a lot of time researching about Blockchain and Bitcoin because I find them both fascinating subjects and I post the links on this thread because I'm sure there are like-minded investors. Factom in particular is making huge strides in leading the way into Blockchain technology and I'm particularly encouraged by their progress in a highly competitive market.

You can start your own thread/s if you are not happy with the content on this one.

Nam,
With u.

[namkrad] 18/11/2016 18:07

yeah and I do not understand this comment about putting me on filter. so, does my criticism hurt him so much? does it mean I can only say "everything will be good" when everything is no good and this is the only statement that can be accepted? so, can I moan? Obviously, I can not moan, I can not express my dissapointment, I can not ask for data because people put me on filter? Convince me you are not Lorne Abony, convince me you are not one of the FFWD owners who just paste here random s... about bitcoin, blockchain technology etc while we wait weeks for some news from FFWD? Mate, I am one of the few the dissapointed shareholders here and believe me or not I am willing to express my bad emotions because I do not know any other place where I can express it while I am loosing my money. And yes, we wait for some news, we wait for some meaningful information, we wait for the moment when FFWD will stop pasting some s..... info at their twitter and will convince us with some good data please. I don't mean anything wrong about yourself doodlebug but I am honestly frustrated with waiting and watching the price going wrong direction and not one direction.

[doodlebug4] 18/11/2016 16:47

I think that comment is directed at flashheart, namkrad and since he has you on filter I think you're unlikely to get a reply. To be honest you contribute nothing worthwhile to this thread whether or not you're a shareholder.

[namkrad] 18/11/2016 16:34

can we get some data behind the statement about Lorne Abony not used to dissapoint not deliver? please give some data as this example here is an obvious dissapointment so far.

[mustardmark] 18/11/2016 16:20

Perhaps one of us should volunteer our services - all we ask is some very favourable share options ;)

[doodlebug4] 18/11/2016 16:00

With so many Investee Companies, based in different parts of the world, there must be a lot of time and work involved keeping track of what each one is doing - I hope Lorne Abony is good at delegating.:-)

[flashheart] 18/11/2016 15:13

I think we all agree that it's certainly been wanting in that regard.

[doodlebug4] 18/11/2016 15:11

There could be quite a lot of reading involved when the next RNS lands. I agree with the comments about not using costly PR agencies, but I think it would be a good idea to have someone solely in charge of FFWD's media and marketing which appears to be rather haphazard at the moment. It's an area of the business which could be far more effective without spending vast sums of money.

[flashheart] 18/11/2016 15:03

Lorne Abony is not in the habit of disappointing.

[flashheart] 18/11/2016 14:58

I agree guns which makes me feel that when the next RNS does land that it's likely to be something very significant. Just a feeling.

[gunsofmyown] 18/11/2016 14:35

I understand the timeframes mustardmark having been invested in a couple of dattels/Mullins ventures before.
I was talking the trading patterns.
For a company that was regular with RNS and tweets to now fall silent has only helped to the share price fall.
Thanks for reply anyway

I very rarely use stop losses 8881CB, particularly in shares like this one where there can be very quick turn around in the share price on very little volume.

[doodlebug4] 18/11/2016 14:02

Good post mustardmark, one of the requirements of being a successful investor is to be able to keep your head while all around you are losing theirs!:-)

[flashheart] 18/11/2016 13:58

We can't be far off, 888ICB

[888icb] 18/11/2016 13:56

I suspect stop losses may get triggered as we get near 10p.
As we keep saying news is required ideally involving large amounts of money flowing into the company!

[flashheart] 18/11/2016 13:53

Wise words mustardmark.

[mustardmark] 18/11/2016 13:49

Gun - lots of aim companies have been hit over the last week - could be investors repositioning themselves to take advantage of the Trump effect and see better opportunities for a quick profit elsewhere (imho). What we need to remember is that FFWD is providing an opportunity for us mere mortals to invest in non listed / start ups companies - historically this type of investment is normally associated with the super wealthy/Venture Capitalists. Personally I'm unfazed by the lack of updates, I would prefer these companies to excel in their relevant field rather than incur the unnecessary expense of PR consultants. VC's have a typical timeline of 3 - 5 yrs, I've taken a similar view and have invested an appropriate proportion of my portfolio here to suit this time frame. Cheers

[flashheart] 18/11/2016 13:40

It does indeed! Once this seller has gone and this suggested buyer has had his fill we should start to move up to proper realistic levels. Probably this seller clearing has been cause of the weakness over the last month to accommodate him/her.

[doodlebug4] 18/11/2016 13:31

That's a delayed trade from earlier this morning. Let's see if the share price holds up, hopefully it will - which suggests there is a buyer in the background.

[gunsofmyown] 18/11/2016 13:17

Here we go again,the big afternoon sell off.
Rinse and repeat!
