It would appear that since the end of 'amateur hour', whilst those pesky amateurs were buying, the share price has advanced a further full percentage point (if not more).

...and what ever became of that bear-trap & all those sharp claws eh?

[jenny tulwought] 18/9/2017 09:43

There speaks an 'amateur hour' expert.

Monday mornings are amateur hour, the bears sharpening their claws as the punters buy.

I am not back in but i did say i would have got back in last week. This is such an easy share to predict

2.7948 and 2.806 on Friday.

2.82 Thursday.

I thought there may be a bounce with the Stoxx 50 reshuffle from Friday's close.

ESWhat level you see to re enter pls?

[essentialinvestor] 18/9/2017 08:14

There's the bounce to 285. Sold half.

Apart from digging diku out of the sh*t what exactly would that achieve?

[diku] 17/9/2017 17:50

US telecom or a European Telecom should just buy this outfit out...or a consortium of Telecom companies...

Meanwhile, an "interesting" article from simplywall.st.



"With profit expected to grow by 82.38% over the next couple of years,"

PMSL.

But of course it is true, profit is expected to grow by this amount - surely therefore monty this justifies your extravagant PER of 15.

(Disclaimer - if you don't understand why that is "funny" please do not rely on either the 82% profit growth or the PE of 15, but instead DYOR)

Every reported trade has both a buyer and a seller.

The flags are merely guesses based on the quoted spread at the time of the trade.

The theory is :
(i) Where a Market Maker is involved it is the other party that is the buyer or the seller.
or (ii) Where settled by SETS, whichever party crosses the spread is deemed to be the "active" trader.

eg if the spread is 99-101 that means that the highest price anyone is prepared to buy at is 99p and the lowest price anyone is prepared to sell at is 101p. These "passive" orders are effectively regarded as "the market".
So if a trade goes through at (or near) 99p it means a seller has become active and crossed the spread, so it is "A SELL"
Conversely if a trade goes through at/near 101p a buyer has crossed the spread and it is "A BUY".

A trade at 100 would probably come up as "?" which would probably make sense as effectively both the buyer and the seller have entered the neutral zone.

It makes some kind of sense but I wouldn't personally rely to much on Buy/Sell stats.

BT drop out of the Stoxx 50 index from today's close.
Some recent tracker fund selling as a result.

[eaaxs06] 15/9/2017 18:07

I still can never work out why the 'buys' and 'sells' don't ever match each other.

If someone buys a share, then someone has sold a share...... so why don't they match up?

Montyhedge = LOL

[montyhedge] 15/9/2017 16:55

Lol buy side.

[eaaxs06] 15/9/2017 16:00

It's because there was 4 trades of 14.5m all recorded on the buy side, andy.

They were negotiated trades, so probably a bit of swapping between market makers.

[andy84uk] 15/9/2017 15:33

Massive volume here today. shares changing hands so someone is buying them all up at this price

[montyhedge] 15/9/2017 15:24

Bulls holding this well at 280p, they know they have to otherwise, freefall, my view.

[dmf] 15/9/2017 14:44

If there is any suggestion of a dividend cut - 200 is almost certain

[1224saj] 15/9/2017 13:41

City index, now there's a story, broker all negative 20% down. But is he right??

[smurfy2001] 15/9/2017 13:19

New lows here. Starting to get tempted.

[shanieboy01] 15/9/2017 12:30

No it will go lower and rebound. No spare cash tho

[dmf] 15/9/2017 11:59

Sboy1

[shanieboy01] 15/9/2017 11:36
