Ok moving up you are forgiven lol! 🤡✌A039;

[justiceforthemany] 17/8/2017 13:21

Nortic please enlighten us as to what made you buy in here? Had you looked into the fundamentals of Hikma or just after a short term trade?

How did you choose your buy in point because at -15% it blasted through at least 4 or 5 support levels.

Could have gone much lower - please share.

Thanks Nortec I was £1200 up in 5mins now £500 lol! Well done mate 🤡✌A039;

[bantam175] 17/8/2017 13:09

I expect most shorts are closed now and up we go.

Numis target 1560. Mine is considerably more

[nortic 007] 17/8/2017 13:09

Quickest 15k profit ever. Sold 7500 and running the balance . Books can't teach you that!!!

[richtea2517] 17/8/2017 13:04

Managed a couple of tranches at 1153. For once timed things ok.

[glenkaz] 17/8/2017 12:58

Onwards and upwards lol! 🤡🤞

[glenkaz] 17/8/2017 12:56

Hope my £48k helps 🤡✌A039;

[rimmy2000] 17/8/2017 12:54

my thoughts too bantam, this sold off a fair way ahead of results, anticipating the bad, dipped in sub £12 today

[bantam175] 17/8/2017 12:53

Odds on a blue finish?

Was already oversold on expected profits drop imo.

Stop loss losers are going to feel very ripped off if this finishes up today.

[richtea2517] 17/8/2017 11:57

That's one heck of a shake. No doubt lots of long term holders threw the towel in. Wonder what close of play will be

[qruz] 17/8/2017 10:58

FT Article this morning is very negative.

[mrthomas] 17/8/2017 10:55

If this gets down to 11/10 then would buy in as would then be 5 year but they do have a strong bs and could debts free In a few years

They are good cash flow so that good but one wonders if this co will go private or get taken over at these levels

I just glad that I made good profits in the past but Some one above said this is like catching a falling knife

[tsmith2] 17/8/2017 10:18

no FY 2018 guidance, not really inspiring

[bantam175] 17/8/2017 09:22

Well they are forecasting a much stronger second half now, but that's still pie in the sky imo.

Also believe last years price was based on performance achieved not promises.

Performance that has been matched albeit little in the way of growth.

Still that all just my opinion.

I'm buying at this level.

Peel Hunt reiterate 2150 target today.

[qruz] 17/8/2017 09:16

tsmith2 I agree.

HIK as it stands is a stale company, and as mentioned in the note with more competition in the U.S., top lines could decline further, to grow they need to expand their pipeline or do another acquisition.

As I mentioned before don't buy a share in a downward trend wait for it to bottom and find support & resistance in stage 1, you are all catching a falling knife.

Do yourself a favor and read Stan Weinstein's profiting in bull and bear markets book, you will save yourself a lot of money!!

[tsmith2] 17/8/2017 09:08

They were higher this time last year because they were forecasted much higher profits so a higher P/E..now forecasting lower guidance...

[demo trader] 17/8/2017 09:02

SHP is a better BET to be in, 3870p, IMO.

HIK if recovers then it will out-perform SHP but high risk.

[bantam175] 17/8/2017 08:58

Nuts.

Figures are on a par with the previous year despite problems and net debt reduced by 64,000,000. Yet these are half the price they were.

Guidance is only ever pie in the sky.

If they hadn't given any no one would be disappointed.

A steal at these prices imo.

[tsmith2] 17/8/2017 08:08

Reduced guidance (again)...

[johnthespacer] 17/8/2017 07:39

Half Year results out this morning...

[coppertrader] 11/8/2017 22:33

Many thanks... they will need to do more than that to halt the share price demise.

[sandeep67] 11/8/2017 10:28

Copper..the RNS are not dealings. Just holding commitments

[g2theary] 11/8/2017 07:49

I'm not 100% but I'd imagine the are types of margin calls? I'd assume it's part of the 21% of the holding... anyone else confirm?
