Hi pb1,

Volume does appear more than the average over the last few days so we shall see how it plays out. I've got an exhaust fitting taking place at 4:00 pm so I might miss the action as Friday afternoons can be interesting to say the least.

[pbutterworth1] 26/1/2018 13:26

An interesting pattern is developing here with some strong support at around £1 over days.
The longer this goes on on a wash rinse the less the committed will fear
I dont think its going below 99p.
Shorters still making money at that level may give up. We will see.

Who knows on this one - just pointing out that we're back to the recent lows.

[poombear] 26/1/2018 13:23

What you saying Skinny double bottom?

[pbutterworth1] 26/1/2018 13:23

LW425 : PE 8 due to lower phone sales China
REALLY? Lool

[lw425] 26/1/2018 13:15

So say 4p EPS

PE 8 due to lower smartphone sales in China

IQE is worth in my view 32p.

IT has DEBTS also.

Afternoon Rich,

No this is it, I won't bore you or the board with my life story, but this is what I do. Regarding your experiences yes I've been in that exact position. I suppose though I am a fear based trader and not a greed based trader, i.e. I'd rather take small loses than bigger loses, (I've been there). However I am working on giving the positions more time to play out, as long as the risk is acceptable. I trade almost exclusively off of charts so don't go in for funny-mentals. (I suspect there are quite a lot of retail accountants, although I've no evidence of that, who punt on companies.)

I find a lot of the books are great primers but I print out various chart patterns which you don't find in books as such apart from the usual known ones obviously. I use level two quite heavily.

One author of psychology I did find very helpful was a guy called Brett N Steenbarger. I've noticed a couple of anthors toffeeman put up, so I shall search them out in due course.

Cheers.

prokartace, interesting to see a well reasoned remark on these boards, worthy of a gold star ;) What matters is future earnings, future market opp and indeed current value. No way it'll sink to 40/50p as PE would be ludicrous, I think £1 ish will hold, but 80p could be possible, at which point there will be much money to be made by new and old investors.

[monty9] 26/1/2018 13:08

Well I bought at 9p in about 2009 I think, and have seen some fairly big gyrations. I did offload 33% when it reached about 80p last and have sat on the balance since. I do thing the company has an exciting future and will likely buy more if the price goes anywhere near 80p again.

[prokartace] 26/1/2018 13:07

As an investor I think that it is very strange to watch the reaction of many of the threaders here. No matter how good the story there will come a point when the share price is clearly over bought. Its like any other bubble where everyone has stopped looking at the fundamentals and goes into an 'I don't want to miss out' mode. If you factor in the potential growth, assuming there are no headwinds, then 180p is hugely overvalued at this stage. in line with all bubbles the fall back can be over done too.

The only way to deal with this is DYOR and decide at what level the share has real value and then look at technicals. See at what stage the share price has settled down and beginning to show signs of recovery i.e. higher lows and higher highs. You don't have to be the 1st person into the share to enjoy the next move up. Let others take the risks.

So what we are looking at here is normal movement to an exciting story, not some conspiricy theory. Yes there are always large shorters in these situations and it is this that causes the over-shoot. Patience will be rewarded

[techno20] 26/1/2018 12:59

Topped up again 101p. Expect this to recover before the close. GLA

[squire007] 26/1/2018 12:54

One of them is almost out ........... ;-)

[ejirem] 26/1/2018 12:50

RF chips has nothing to do with IQE.

[jugu] 26/1/2018 12:43

Tommy, looking to get back in by trying to drive it down more after you have exited?

[yankeekraut] 26/1/2018 12:42

we dont need fake news here. Go play somewhere else.

[bushranger] 26/1/2018 12:36

Fuji99 - Its made up nonsense like yours that discredits these BB. Please do not post fantasy fiction on here.

[az4hr] 26/1/2018 12:36

I can’t take much more of this consistent brutal price destruction what an earth are management doing they need to put out a statement people are losing money

[tomyumgoong] 26/1/2018 12:32

Could this be why we're being heavily shorted:Qualcomm were believed to be developing a fully integrated rf chip before which would upset the incumbent rf vendors such as Skyworks and Qorvo. This was dismissed by lots of people although Qualcomm purchased a wafer fab from TDK. hTtps://finance.yahoo.com/news/qualcomm-signs-2-bln-sales-123341421.html;_ylc=X1MDMTE5Nzc4NDE4NQRfZXgDMQRfeXJpZANibmhkajd0ZDZtN2MxBGcDZFhWcFpEeHVjejR5Tm1ObVpXRTFPQzAxTVRFMUxUTmlPRGd0WVRrNFpTMWtOemd3WmpJNE9HWXhPVFIxZFdsa1BHNXpQa0ZXUjA4PQ0KBGxhbmcDZW4tR0IEb3JpZ19sYW5nA2VuLUdCBG9yaWdfcmVnaW9uA0dCBHBvcwMxBHJlZ2lvbgNHQgRzeW1ib2wDQVZHTw--?.tsrc=applewf

[richardc77] 26/1/2018 12:32

It won’t go back to 40/50p. In hindsight of course should have sold at £1.80 but c’est la vie and all that ;) will buy heavily if it sees 80p level (but don’t think it will see lower) x

[grity] 26/1/2018 12:27

Are you guys who bought in the 20s and 30s & not averaged up like me are prepared to let it drop back to 40/50p (worst case senario)& not blink a eyelid just because you can wait 12/24 months ? That’s crazy . It’s sounds like falling in love with a stock , IMG comes to mind .

[richardc77] 26/1/2018 11:58

H2, agreed, we were very lucky, many got carried away with “where we could be” instead of thinking, “wow I’ve just 8 bagged”, a sharp rise can always take you quickly back down, although many of us are still 500% up so should not be crying over spilt milk. Happy to accumulate here and further down, agree 12-18 months will look different, expect £2+. Guess how annoyed by the fall depends on how much time you have for the rebound and what % of your net worth is in IQE. Either way what happened is another good investing lesson to file away...
