Oh well, it turned out to be less than 12 days until the mid term chart above became useful....and what a difference it makes!

Cheers, OTU

There's around 12 trading days to go before that mid-term chart above will change. And then I think a few more folk may notice CKSN's potential better.....

The chart 'cliff drop' at share consolidation point destroys the recent performance of CKSN when measured against wider indices. I'm very much looking forward to a refreshed chart that recognises what's happened here since 'green shoots' appeared.

Cheers all, OTU

[marbles1234] 28/8/2009 10:29

[marbles1234] 28/8/2009 09:20

looking for 400 again !

[marbles1234] 28/8/2009 09:20

closed it yesterday afternoon with a small profit, gone long this morning at 279.2p

[dawsonpaul] 28/8/2009 09:18

Are you still short? :-) Or closed that one?

[marbles1234] 28/8/2009 06:26

Guys I did mistype. I meant 360, Been trading this for a long time and had forgottom we had moved from the 200s to 400s so quickly.

[dawsonpaul] 28/8/2009 06:17

The last trades were some big ones at 375. Resistance at 270p, I think the correction is now over. I hope.

[on the up] 27/8/2009 22:37

Some form of correction is inevitable.

The climb has been impressive (and I sold at 260's!) but consolidation is required. And if bobsidian was around (hello????) I think he'd probably look at how the FTSE250 has been a little over cooked in recent times.

CKSN remains on my 1st watch list...but I reckon marbles could have mis typed with 260 rather than meant that (ridicuously cheap price when I'd be heavily tempted!)

dyor, etc ;->

Cheers, OTU

260 - you are marbles.

[dmf] 27/8/2009 13:04

Blimey......where will this 'bottom-out' ?

[marbles1234] 27/8/2009 10:45

[dawsonpaul] 27/8/2009 10:40

[marbles1234] 27/8/2009 08:57

[marbles1234] 27/8/2009 08:54

[dmf] 26/8/2009 23:46

Take profits on Cookson, says Evo Securities
26 August, 2009

Broker urges investors to take profits on Cookson, saying that it believes the balance between risk and reward in the current share price has run into the risk category.

[dawsonpaul] 26/8/2009 12:45

FTSE is down. CKSN have been rallying lately so we're likely to see profit taking. Good to see resistance at 400 There's also some sceptisim in the chinese and american markets.

* Bank of America upgrades Atlas Coco to buy from neutral, upgrades Morgan Crucible to buy from underperform, downgrades Cookson to neutral from buy

[marbles1234] 25/8/2009 17:11

Why the drop here today, or was it just a touch of profit taking?

[dawsonpaul] 24/8/2009 20:39

good news re Corus & ArecelorMittal firing up steel plants after previoulsy mothballing them ..... demand for Cookson product should see an uptick going into 3rd & 4th quarters & with overheads cut back should have a quick shot to the profits. Good long term hold this one imo
