When will this get taken out?

Funny old game!

Honestly cannot remember how long I've been here but recall having an extremely tasty paper profit when they hit 29 / 30p a few years ago. I was unfortunately unable to trade at that time and, possibly like others, have sat and watched them since then, extremely frustrating!!

I've been accumulating and hold a reasonable no. @ circa 8.24p average price.

There are numerous positives here and if a few come good then we're 'off to the races'!!

Cheers

Obviously i'm disappointed at my decision yesterday, can't win them all. I'm honest enough to put my trading on here when I do buy and sell (which is often). You do unfortunately cop some flack as well !

FTC have a habit of allowing people back in so will watch quietly from now on. I'd rather not encourage any share price rises at the moment for purely selfish reasons :)

Good to see. Wait.

[beeks of arabia] 24/2/2021 07:44

Good point BazThis isn't a cash rich ftse 100. No director ever has to put his hand in his pocket, it's free will. Whatever the amount it's a positive.

[bazworth] 24/2/2021 07:37

We have no idea about their personal financial situation and therefore should not criticise the size of the purchase. Filtronic are not paying the Directors huge salaries so any share purchase, in my view, is positive. £19k is a good chunk of cash, at least it is in my world!

The boss was also granted a good number of options a little while ago, he therefore has a very good incentive to see success in the business and the share price should follow.

[beeks of arabia] 24/2/2021 07:32

Mesquisa - haha!You cant get them all right!

[donald pond] 24/2/2021 07:31

True enough, about £23k spent in total by 3 of them a year ago. All a bit low key really.

[bazworth] 24/2/2021 07:24

A number of Directors bought about 12-18 months ago, I think at a similar or higher price.

[donald pond] 24/2/2021 07:19

Better than nothing but at this price you'd like to see more director buys. Another couple down here and the price might start reacting.

[mesquida] 24/2/2021 07:10

Well Beeks, it was good of you to give the new man a cheap buying opportunity !

[bazworth] 24/2/2021 07:10

Pleased to see that the boss has put his toe into the water!

[buywell2] 23/2/2021 21:04

I still believe in the longer term story here Sir. Happy to trade it as and when the risk/reward changes

[buywell2] 23/2/2021 20:56

Good to see you have taken your head out of the sand beeks


So will you be slinging your hook soon ?

Not me wasp.

I expected a drop from the IG fallout when I saw FTC was omn the list on Sunday. I've been selling down my position for last two days - out relatively flat with just a token amount left.

[beeks of arabia] 23/2/2021 20:45

Talking of well made spanners......

[buywell2] 23/2/2021 20:32

Bet they wished they had taken profits now

Averaging down is not considered to be a sound strategy

Falling in love with a share likewise

One needs to be adjustable , like a well made spanner

Boeing now in trouble again , one wonders if espionage is involved as too many bad things happening in a short time frame does not look like coincidental imo

Conversations seems.to heading towards extreme speculation here!

Our big investors didnt sell on the spike to 30 odd p a few years ago and have topped up since. I doubt they are going anywhere

When you add something to the thread except vitriol then maybe i'll converse with you again. In the meantime on the filter you go.
