Picking up very nicely since the early October sell off. I feel quite good about these following very good trading reports and also the hefty and apparently sound yield of over 6%. Just looks so attractive at the moment that I am tempted to add further.
DYOR etc.

Morning All

Drifted off a touch this morning. No apparent reason I can see, though I guess "we" would be the last to know. Decided to have a handful and see where the ride takes us in the medium term.

Seems to be making some recovery. Ive seen massive trades the last 2 days(25-80K each, multiple a day). Hope it is time for a rebound, AIM has been punished recently.

I've covered a lot today, will hold the rest to see if the triangle can expand further.

[its the oxman] 06/8/2014 15:04

Got your 415p and breaking through 400p this afternoon.

[matt123d] 22/7/2014 19:26

Looking for 415p here.

[matt123d] 16/7/2014 19:03

Appears to be playing out here to the short side. Technically just walking down the triangle. Triangle needs to expand for greater downside momentum.

[its the oxman] 16/7/2014 18:55

Any holders with views on this at current level 445p.

What does a stock have to look like for it to go higher. A series of outside candles across all time frames, green month, week, day and 60. This shows that demand is greater than the supply and institutional buyers are in control. Just look at nearly any chart in this bull run. Now what does a chart have to look like for it to go lower, simple, the reverse of the above. Ie. this one.

Hi Matt
"Supply is present for all time frames and when they all align a fast move develops." Sounds like what my friendly astrologer would say :). Please can you elaborate.

[matt123d] 20/6/2014 01:17

Nothing suspicious about it. The supply/demand equilibrium was broken to the downside. Supply is present on all time frames and when they all align a fast move develops. Until the time frame continuity changes on the shortest time frame there is no knowing how much supply there is and how far price will fall.Tomorrow morning will give the next signal.

Hi Matt,

Do you have any information about the company that would lead you to believe that the share price is going to go down?

I think that an 8% drop in a company's share price the day before results are due to be announced is suspicious.

[matt123d] 19/6/2014 23:46

Hi,Valuation metrics aside due to the fact they give no indication of future share price performance as they do not display supply/demand relationships on differing time frames. Currently displaying full time frame continuity to the downside. Red on the month, week, day and 60. Seeing more and more stocks like this and the most since the start of this current bull run.

Hi Matt,

Why would you think that it is a 'major short candidate'?

Everything about it looks good to me - consensus estimates for tomorrows earnings put them on a PE of around 17 and consensus estimate for next years earnings put them on a PE of around 14 - both of which compare extremely favourably to their average PE over the last few years - in the 20's. In addition to which their is forecast to be a fantastic dividend.

But given the 8% drop in the share price today I am a bit suspicious that the results tomorrow are going to contain a nasty surprise... do you know what it is?

[matt123d] 19/6/2014 14:07

Major short candidate here. Reports tomorrow 20th.

[trytotakeiteasy] 08/5/2014 13:54

[4wingrove] 12/2/2014 22:01

Also bought in , recommended in this weeks Moneyweek and both fundamentals and technicals look good, also like the fact that the bosses hold a lot of shares

[philo124] 10/2/2014 09:19

[tommy ten chins] 03/2/2014 10:55

Ouch - whats this fall about? 550 down to below 500p.

[tommy ten chins] 10/12/2013 08:16

I hope so after such excellent results! I would like to buy more but POLR is a very high % of my portfolio. Currently 500p - bound to rise as its been stuck here for weeks.

[shammytime] 03/12/2013 08:58

Could see a sharp rise here this week...
