thanks

melfaraj
that's an exellent idea

[melfaraj] 02/5/2002 14:45

prm, nearly. risen today by nearly 20% on successful blood test result. resistance at 50, which can be considerable and therefore if broken can be a decisive breakthrough for this stock.

sham: how about compiling a list of all the stocks in this thread into a portfolio and monitoring its progress.

[the jitters] 02/5/2002 14:42

.....or Paladin resources (PLR).

What about Old Mutual (OML), anyone care to comment on the chart?

Phil

[johnv] 02/5/2002 14:16

Fanta, thanks for your opinion Johnv

[melfaraj] 02/5/2002 13:59

here is a selection:

- hrn, just about?
- atu, a tiddler with tightly held stock. hasn't broken through yet but likely to do so very soon if it vertical recent rises is anything to go by. the graph has described one mighty 'w' figure spanning some 5 and half moths. and buy a jaccuzzi with your profits!
- brs, just about.

[melfaraj] 02/5/2002 13:36

here are 2 in the investment companies sector:

- gss, no breakout here, for simply there has been no dips in the graph, up all the blooming way! and has gone up 50% since sept 11th.

- try, again no breakouts because of lack of any dips to speak of. but the rate of climbe is not as hectic as gss'.

i pointed out 'cost' earlier in this thread. this has been since going through the roof, up over 13% today, lots of institutional buying disguised under the 'not known trade' banner. but while advfn's software cannot work out the nature of these trades my own, located somewhere in the upper extremities of my body, has worked them out.

[melfaraj] 02/5/2002 13:28

dj, you have share in a tea plantation company?!

i am not so keen on investment companies and insurance although recently i came accross a couple useful charts. will post them here for you if i manage to find them.

howabout ukc

[djalan] 02/5/2002 13:15

try this for all sectors

It lead me to the insurance sector about 3 weeks ago
now looking at INVESTMENT COMPANIES quite a lot

MELFARAJ any tips in this sector???

PBB---well worth a fiver a month, is that 2.5 pints of beer?
or in my case 250 tea bags

good luck

Theape
Where do you look for over/under valued sectors???

[melfaraj] 02/5/2002 12:57

fanta, just my own effort without the help of software. i look at the graph of a lot of the stock that captures my attention and sift out those of interest.advnf's premier service has a breakout and constantly rising filters, among others, not bad for £5 per month subscription.

here is another one, wos, it has peaked and been trending for a while within a very restricted range, not really a flag pattern as the latter would require the general direction to be against that of the preceeding main trend, i.e. downwards. a breakout should be due any day, suggest northwards myself! the stock is in the right 'construction' sector and i like the shape of the graph, a classic for a rising stock.

[fanta] 02/5/2002 12:16

melfaraj....how do you find/select these stocks?, your last 2 look good..this one is a v.nice chart...



also:


TIA
F:-}

[theape] 02/5/2002 11:23

pick an overvalued/ undervalued sector.

find the vulnerable/ strong ones within it (M.As)

watch the price/ volume 5 days

measure your nuts.

[wholden] 02/5/2002 11:19

fanta: what charts do u use?

can u show ceu for us breakout on highish vol etc.
cheers wh

[fanta] 02/5/2002 01:37

Johnv re:IMX



does seem to be staging a small breakout...however (there's alway's one!)..I see there is fairly strong resistance at around 12p (going back to nov 1999) with a "gap" to close 12-15p (april 2001)..this will take a lot of volume/conviction...again late night disclaimer applies :)

F:-}

PS trying to comment on Plasmon but I'm emotionally involved ;), perhaps it would be a could exercise to try and comment on it as if I weren't...I'll make that tomorrows (today's) attempt!

also melfraj...will look at BVM tomorrow...first glance is interesting tho'
nite all

[wholden] 02/5/2002 01:21

cheers fanta!

[fanta] 02/5/2002 01:04

wholden...as requested: ceu



breakout is on an uptick in volume, but imho only...I'd be wary for a fallback to 30-35p(@) to test the strongest resistance (now theoretically the support) Mar-Sep 2000)approx...also it's been in a long term downtrend so wary as to the seemingly suddenness of a reverse in trend......

late night disclaimer: it is late and only a glance...and I know nothing, fundamental about this stock!

zzax99, thanks not a PBB member any chance of a cut`n paste on this occasion.It would be very much appreciated.

[fingers xxd] 01/5/2002 22:24

I wish I'd known all that at the time.

You are not the only one with regrets.
I got out on the 25th Feb at 292p, as the
'Baugur' deal fell through, and it was
struggling to get past 300p.

Still, I'd held from 55p, so I shouldn't
be too greedy.

[smoketrader] 01/5/2002 22:03

It's an inverted head and shoulders pattern. The price rise from the lowest point to the neckline at 300p was about 250p, so according to the textbooks should rise the same again from 300p = 550p target IMHO. The pattern is only confirmed when the neckline is penetrated, in this case the 21st March looked like the best time to get in.

I was going to buy in at 310 but someone once said "if it looks too good to be true, it probably is". How I wish I hadn't listened to them.

[fingers xxd] 01/5/2002 21:50

Arcadia (AG.) is one of the success stories of the last 12mth.

I've just been looking at the 5 yr chart on the III site. Talk
about a 'mirror image'. Looking at the chart, I would say 500p
is guaranteed.

Could someone please display a 5yr line chart.

Do these patterns occur very often?

Thanks.

[melfaraj] 01/5/2002 18:53

smoketrader, there are ups and downs in most trending stocks, in relative terms that is,and the rsi should change reading accordingly. i would also combine rsi with stochastics. again as i wrote earlier in this thread, to fine tune timing a trend.
macd works both in a trending and ranging stock and its divergence with price is a good indicator as to where the stock is heading.macdm is considered the best of indicators.
