Seems to be having great trouble in keeping it up :-) So a very good time for adding for those that have the cash I would say.

has yorgi sold out of AVN and moved it all into CGNR ?

that's a bit of a dramatic way to start completing the right-hand reverse shoulder !

[peterblok] 15/7/2011 17:32

Seems like its you backmarker.....

[backmarker] 15/7/2011 16:51

I'm waiting with interest to see who is the first person to suggest we might have a reverse head-and-shoulders pattern ;~}

p.s. target 500p

Not surprised, he played mostly to the pit band.
He had a dummy monkey called Jim Pan-See, possibly a relation of the starter of this thread.

Yes , a good blend of comedy and ventriloquism , though he had mixed reviews.

I don't know where this Data explorer outfit comes from all of a sudden but it is simply not possible that anyone can provide reliable data. No-one is obliged to report to any one info on a short position. It is even difficult getting info on long positions from registers because most stocks are held in nominee accounts.

See from dataexplorer.com that the shorters piled back in yesterday!

[bonty] 12/7/2011 17:22

I don't know where he is now but Ken Wood was a very funny ventriloquist.

[blackberrydrop] 12/7/2011 16:04

I said to the gym instructor 'Can you teach me to do the splits?' He said 'How flexible are you?' I said: 'I can't make Tuesdays'

BlackberryDrop; classic, quirky song! :-)

the chart has a much healthier tone and I believe we have broken the downtrend.

450p didn't provide that much support on the way down, so I don't think it will pose much resistance on the way up. that said it's an obvious place for the uptrend to take a breather. 500p and 600p look more like the key resistance points to be aware of.

jeffian, forgive me, but I'm not sure your understanding of "close period" is entirely accurate. here are a couple of definitions that may help. as you will see, it has more to do with restricting directors and insiders share dealings than an embargo on trading updates, and its duration is linked to the date of publication of results rather than the date of the end of a financial period

=================

A close period is a period, usually of two months, prior to the release of results during which directors and other insiders are not allowed to trade in a company's shares.

It is also usual for companies to refrain from making other price sensitive announcements (e.g. trading statements) during the close period. This is not required, but it is usually regarded as good practice.

Many companies issue a trading statement immediately before the start of the close period so that investors have information that is as up to date as possible during the close period.

It is always possible for a company to be overtaken by events and put in a position that makes it necessary to make an announcement during the close
period.

===================================================

What Does Close Period Mean?
The time period between the completion of a company's balance sheet and the announcing of the results to the public.

Investopedia explains Close Period
Typically occurring for the two months preceding an earnings announcement, the close is a period during which insiders are not permitted to transact a company's shares.

=========================================================

30 June is the year-end for this company, so I would not expect the Annual Results before 3 months but more probably in 5 months around December like last year.

however I would expect a trading update. most companies issue these a few weeks after the end of a quarter. our last one was 18th April, so I'm expecting one in late July.

[yorgi] 08/7/2011 08:17

Still holding our gains and moving on back towards 450p :-)

[geheimnis2] 07/7/2011 16:53

jeffian - i dont think that is correct

lots of companies issue a trading update a week or two after their year end and before the numbers are completely finalised

a recent example on AIM is Blinkx

[jeffian] 07/7/2011 16:38

I doubt you will get a trading update as we are now in a 'close period' until the results are announced. Those companies that do update usually issue a 'pre-close update' just prior to their year-end, but this date has passed for AVN.

[yorgi] 07/7/2011 16:27

Still taking it's time but a good day for us today :-)

[yorgi] 07/7/2011 16:15

All quite possible Geheimnis.

[geheimnis2] 07/7/2011 16:14

thanks par555 - i doubt they will wait that long this time - perhaps we will get a trading update this month? (next week even?)

my personal view is that the trading update may push these as high as £6

[jonnib] 07/7/2011 15:42

i take it the 250000 sell was a buy judging by the sudden move?
