now mug punter, its taken out its old high are you a buyer ? but if your a mug punter, you won,t be.

[chipperfrd] 27/5/2004 18:55

Mug Punter - you have to admit it looks a damn fine chart !

[mug punter] 27/5/2004 09:30

British Bear,

Let the trend be your friend - except for the bend at the end - is a very sound adage.

Looking at the chart again even if it failed to take out 89p it would not really be a very convincing double top since it is in such a strong uptrend.

Last time I shorted from 88 was when market sentiment very weak. If anything now I would be a buyer if it takes out the old high.

[britishbear] 27/5/2004 08:53

Let the trend be your friend. The slow but sure rise continues.

Still looking for a £1 short/medium term and more later.

data-cash are only going to make a small profit this year , because of the cost of setting all the systems up, from 2005 onwards, thats when you will see some big figures. data-cash profits are also ongoing for many years to go, not just a one off payment of 3.5 mill, over a long period of time data will, make many millions, its just the tip of the ice berg, at the moment. the p/e will come right down, and the price will continue to go north.

125000 X .86P.

Couldnt have done any research,just a wild guess.

LOL

Mr Tilt,

A correct observation but a somewhat narrow viewpoint if you don't mind me saying so.

Things change on mnarkets.

As I said if DATA fail to take out 89p to make a new high then its a double top which is a SELL signal.

[mr tilt] 26/5/2004 14:01

If in any doubt compare the charts ALM v's DATA over the last 6 months you will clearly see only 1 winner DATA

[britishbear] 26/5/2004 13:57

OK, apart from ALM - fair comment. Data is after the smaller retialer so are not actually in direct competition with the ALM for the same customers. The RNS about the IBM deal makes this clear. Point taken though.

[mug punter] 26/5/2004 13:14

igoe104,

DATA's profit forecast for December 04 is only £1.4 million.

I don't know what their margins are, but on that basis I would not expect any contracts worth a lot more than £3.6 million.

[igoe104] 26/5/2004 12:49

also nsb retail have a peice of the acton, i think hardware or something., i somehow think data will make alot more than 3.6 mill, than alm deal

[aderemi] 26/5/2004 12:32

from times today

ALPHAMERIC, the developer of bookmaking and retail software, lost ½p at 84p, despite a £3.6 million deal to provide JJB Sports with point-of-sale terminals and software for the "chip-and-pin" regime. The tie-up will see Alphameric replace JJB's entire estate of 1,600 terminals in 447 stores before the January 1, 2005, deadline for compliance with the chip-and-pin system.

[britishbear] 26/5/2004 12:02

If people want a piece of the chip and pin action this is about the only quoted company that will give them exposure.

A good share to stick away for a few years

[igoe104] 26/5/2004 11:42

hi there just signed up to this board, normally on on iii board, i,m quite excited about prospects for the next 18 months , with this company. i hold 15,000 shares and will be looking to top up , if i get the funds available. i think this company will be near £2 or maybe more by the end 2005, its got a good chart forming, and should not be to long before it takes a visit to the £1 barrier, they should be a strong rise as we get ready for the interims, in august, looking at at start of the year statement, its bound to be bullish.

[peterz] 21/5/2004 09:51

Been away for few days - nice price rise!!

AGM seems promising for future development

DATACASH GROUP PLC ('DataCash' or 'the Company')

AGM STATEMENT


DataCash Group Plc, the AIM listed payments service provider, held its AGM today
and all resolutions were duly passed. Chairman David Bailey made the following
statement:


"This has been an eventful and busy year for the Company during which we have
firmly established ourselves as one of the country's leading payments service
providers.


"During the first four months of the current year the Card Holder Not Present
business has continued to grow rapidly and we have won some important new
clients particularly in the travel and ticketing areas. They should contribute
to revenue growth going forward.


"One of the most significant events of the year was the announcement that we
are working with IBM in a team to market a complete Chip and Pin solution to
mid-tier retailers. Initial marketing has been encouraging and we are
increasingly confident that this outsourced multi-channel proposition will
generate significant revenues and opportunities for the Group in the future.

in early August."

Bit quiet.

[britishbear] 13/5/2004 06:35

Indeed it could. Would make an excellent addition to their European drive.

Should at least keep the DATA share price steady with gains coming from good performance and chip and pin hype.

[aderemi] 12/5/2004 21:42

'Although the listing on AIM has been seen as a success, the shares have slipped back 7 points to 193 mid valuing NETeller at £231m. Growth is likely come from its foray into Europe and Asia as previously stated. But the company could have its sights set on a complimentary acquisition as a way into new markets. However, mutterings are already emerging that the company could be snapped up itself by a larger rival, or by one of the major credit card operators.'



Could datacash be a target.

[britishbear] 10/5/2004 06:54

There will be a lot of noise and publicity when chip and pin systems kick in next year. The only listed company that offers good exposure to this market is DATA.

This will set it up as a takeover target but will also highlight the great JV with IBM etc.

Holding but expect a pound before long

[rocketeer] 09/5/2004 12:10

This looks like a good buy, but it needs a price correction first.
Always a bit of a worry, when 'takeover' rumours are needed to
maintain upward momentum.

[mug punter] 09/5/2004 11:57

Sorry make that 5 trading days later - Monday was a bank holiday.

So 5% profit after costs in 5 days. Could have been better if I'd covered at 80 of course.
