Good performance here today considering the strong rise yesterday

Ciavacco and Minervini play opposite sides of the same coin. Ciavacco has a solid process for market direction, and that is very important. Operate with a Minervini style and his tactical approach will pay the bigger dividends. Note that both are primarily concerned with not losing capital. For the former the slow accumulation can decline rapidly and take a long time to build back up, whilst for the latter it is vital not to blow ones stack in the fast accumulation and fast decline companies he is looking for. The balance comes that a Minervini style is much harder work, and selling what isn't working or worse requires much more decisiveness. I agree with Brahms and chester - Ciavacco's videos are essential viewing.

Thanks for the useful information - really good discussion and a great day for FDEV:-)

[mad foetus] 03/1/2018 17:15

Will look him up. Meantime, FDEV has more than covered this week's holiday in Venice with the kids. Not to mention HCM as well. Things going very well at the moment, portfolio up around 10% in last 2 weeks. GLA.

I fully agree with Brahmsnliszt . Chris Ciavacco has kept me long this market.
Brilliant Weekly Videos.

thanks never heard of him so will read up - I guess the key is to find some useful methods and people to learn from which suits your own methods, personality and timeframes.

[brahmsnliszt] 03/1/2018 15:39

i prefer chris ciavacco

worth following him on twitter and his weekly macro views on markets. very good indeed

he has certainly helped me remain fully invested and also long on a DOW spread bet since 20,000 which has been a fine trade thanks to him.

Thats what i meant ashezi - he would have bought on that November breakout point - its just interesting to me the stock went through the bottoming cycle he talks about etc in his book - decreasing volatility between peaks and troughs of the bottoming before almost flatlining while sellers were exhausted. This stock has all the characteristics you should look for super performance returns including low number of shares in issue.

[malcontent] 03/1/2018 15:26

there she blows!

[ashehzi] 03/1/2018 15:23

According to my understanding of Minervini, he tends to buy when they are about to breakout or have broken out. He keeps watching the stock till then. It helps him to keep his money working harder, rather than sitting at the base level. Correct me If I misunderstood his books.

[brahmsnliszt] 03/1/2018 15:09

lovely breakout indeed.

I like Minervini's book like everyone else here, but I do find him very fickle. Can change his view like the wind and can tend to report trades a long time after the event.

[ashehzi] 03/1/2018 15:07

you're so right numbo1. I bought it in that range also and happy to hold it long term.

[nimbo1] 03/1/2018 15:02

For those who have read the minnervini book this is very possibly a minnervini stock - ticks all the boxes as far as i can see - the narrow range trading from the 9.30 placing to c.£10.20 was the base forming. The buy signal was obviously that first breakout beginning of november. Any views on this?

V often see 100% plus from the base level over time - which could take us to my £25 target - which I have picked for no other reason than it seems like a global games company with a blockbuster on the way should be worth c.£1 billion in todays market.

So Christmas really does start earlier every year.

[nimbo1] 03/1/2018 14:45

no could about it at the mo

[allstar4eva] 03/1/2018 13:10

Agreed nimbo. This could be one of the shares of the year (again:-)

[nimbo1] 03/1/2018 12:28

Not too shabby. Really think we'll see £25 this year around the time JE is released assuming of course it is as excellent as everyone is anticipating.

[bigbigdave] 03/1/2018 12:23

What a corker of a breakout!

[ashehzi] 03/1/2018 11:53

all time high...

[bamboo2] 02/1/2018 12:51

Cool. Eod close above 1383.5 confirms min tp 1588

[mark4231] 02/1/2018 12:30

There you go, malcontet, 1400p broken. :-)

[bamboo2] 02/1/2018 11:43

Adam, thanks for the clarification! It makes sense to me now. Just shows how misunderstandings can occur.
