Still sitting on my hands, apart from very tiny nibble on Vanl @90p yesterday. Much longer and the blood will cease to flow.

Had a quick look at ECSC last time you mentioned it. Didn't pick up your one stop shop point. I assumed that cyber security was a crowded market and couldn't see what was special about this as a new float. Looked interesting though.

GAW - couldn't agree more about contact. I looked at GAW and my head was reeling - shops with strange bits of plastic. I'm not sure my background fits me for understanding it - looked at Steam and there was a similar effect, mod. Wondered how it has ip and how it protects itself in a crowded market. Bloody amazing track record.

attrader - no, but use their payroll and accounts software every day. Very impressed with it. Its sticky - companies wont change it, and they have moved to a monthly subscription basis from annual billing, huge cash flow advantages. There are tonnes of add ons to the programes which they bill on top. Integrated HR, Payments, staff portals, and many things I probably dont know about.

1 in 5 business's globally dont use software to help with in day to day operations.

Hugely bullish on SAGE. ADP the market leaders globally, but massive opportunities. They can easily rise prices as well without much fall out.

On a day curiously void of bombastic small-cap highlights, it seems appropriate to go for a situation which has classic fundamental merit, in the form of Venture Life (LON:VLG).

By Zak Mir 22 March 2017

On the face of it (pun largely intended), Venture Life has almost everything that matters to a chartist who has just hit the half century mark. The company focuses on developing and retailing products for the ageing population. Given that this is the demographic time bomb which is ticking rather more frantically year by year, the investment argument here is increasingly attractive.

Oral hygiene, nail fungal infections and Rosacea are among the ailments which Venture Life is addressing in its product line currently. As once can imagine, these products and many more like them have will have an increasingly receptive market in years to come. The icing on the cake on the fundamental front was the announcement at the end of January that revenues were up 57% and the group had achieved its maiden EBITDA profit.

The technicals underline the good news in the sense that we are looking at strong progress within a rising trend channel on the daily chart, which has been in place since as long ago as the beginning of last year. The message is that provided we hold above the former post November resistance at 60p, the upside here could be as great as the 2016 resistance line projection at 100p on a 3-6 months timeframe.

APAD, GAW - like anything its what I grew up doing as a hobby as a teenager about 10 years ago. If only I started investing continually in GAW 10 years ago. Would have had some sub £2.00.

Now I work with Sage products every day and im not letting that one go :)

Best investments come from contact with the companies i find. Scuttlebutt investing i think its called?

Apad, have a look at ECSC, it's in the right sector at the right time and it's a one stop for cyber security which is currently fragmented. The management has a big holding in the company, unicorn vct has taken 17% stake in the company and very few free float available.I have put it on my watch list

For the record I have taken out my original investment out last week, so letting the rest to run for free.FXPO, a good set of results ECSC a small company in the cyber security sector, which has had good revenue growth, it looks interesting

Has anyone taken a look at WEY Education (WEY)?
AIM Business Support Services sector.
Newish company 2012 only now making some headway.
Sound business concept
Eminently scalable, UK and abroad.
Net cash.
Mkt Cap possibly a bit small £5/6m for the general taste on here.
Chairman taking shares instead of salary.
Recent share price rise a bit sudden and perhaps a bit silly but falling back now.
Good backers.
Thread a bit frothy atm due to sudden rise but some good contributors.
Not gone into it much deeper than this yet but probably will.
