re - Why today's drop

On looking at the order book... it looks that despite more buys and even larger sizes, the order book has been manipulated putting multiple small prices on the selling side, making it negative on the DEPTH ( trades )

Most likely "Spreadex LTD" the one taking a SHORT last week, did not like yesterday's rise and today acted upon.

LOL, anyone dim enough to set a stop under the 100 day.

[bocase] 15/6/2022 10:44

I don't know what triggered the drop and temporary suspension. Anyone seen any news?

Maybe just a sell trade going through on a thin order book.

Sutardja seems confident in the future, now owning nearly 13%. Are we missing something?

I agree with the article in the link and have just started to drip feed into the SOXX. The future of demand for semis will only grow each year over the foreseeable future.

Did a say IQE moving to 37+ by the end of the day?.
well is 35.75p +0.35p as "AT"

and the market is well down yet.

[master rsi] 14/6/2022 09:27

Plenty of shenanigans this morning, but eventually the share price will be around the lower 37p by the end of the day.

[master rsi] 13/6/2022 23:31

Will the 50% retrace will do or the stock will need 61.8% for any bounce back?

[master rsi] 13/6/2022 16:29

A bit of bounce back at the end of the day.
Maybe are the ones who sorted this morning and buying back.
Order book has been stronger on the bid side since after 3.30pm
DEPTH was 37 v 30 not long ago

I think 41p was either shorters or someone taking a big bite of IQE stock shifting market. Selling at 41p seems a good thing now in hindsight as there was no real news to back the climb. Someone may know something. Aa it gets closer to 30p worth a punt.

In 30 years of dealing with shares and the like I have never seen a time that seems so hard to see where things are going, for the economy, individual shares, family finances etc…

I have just sold up house and can’t see good value one to buy so will rent. How people are affording the petrol, food, mortgages, energy bills and more and house prices staying where they are I don’t know…

But to IQE. I think tech will find it hard to sell without innovation, people don’t want just the same and I believe the markets IQE are in will drive growth from new features like insulin monitoring, VR etc as apple and others compete for the upgrades they will be forced to announce exciting new things to tempt people. Same old thing will be ignored by consumers so the next wave could be quite interesting to see what are the features that drive the growth.

On Boris etc. whoever is running the ship is going to have to throw incentives at tech, pharma etc where we are quite good in this country but always sold off cheap to US or other countries. The likes of Richard who just bought 5% could help keep companies like IQE in with a chance to be important in 5 years time when the new tech of today becomes mass market.

I think you'll find Putin & the pandemic have a bit more to do with where we're at than Brexit (or Boris come to that).

[longtallsally] 13/6/2022 11:44

I’m not convinced that Boris will still be in power by next year. He really has managed to get the country to a place of being broken, how the masses didn’t see what the effects of Brexit would be beggars belief. I wasn’t dead set against Brexit but I could see that it would severely effect our growth ability. I suspect it will take us a decade to put it behind us.

[crosswires] 13/6/2022 11:36

I imagine a bumpy summer in the markets so we will be relying on some news flow to move us up now. It’s a shame 40p didn’t hold but then I didn’t think it would as it’s been a ceiling so far this year. Won’t be long before we’re in a technical recession and with the current PM in place i’m not convinced he’ll make the right spending moves to get the country back into growth in the short term. Fingers crossed that in September we meet the market expectations of low single digit growth 🤞

I don’t think the ruble will have any effect on IQE 😉

[horneblower] 11/6/2022 15:16

These days the price of money is set by the availability of energy, so the strongest currency right now is the ruble. This will last as long as the west needs to fill up reserves...which is not too long, as there is a finite capacity. When western reserves are full the ruble will fall and the dollar/euro rise (and the oil price stabilise).

[longtallsally] 11/6/2022 11:44

US$ is seen as the only safe haven currency at the moment and is back to $1.23 / £1, and I suspect the £ could be weak for the next year or two, helpful news for IQE.

Below is the chart with smma90.
I do not use moving averages myself and do not recommend them.

[master rsi] 10/6/2022 15:29

Provonar

Any chance of a link to that 90 days SMMA chart?
There are not many places of able to do charts with the SMMA

Smoothed Moving Average (SMMA)
The Smoothed Moving Average (SMMA) is similar to the Simple Moving Average (SMA), in that it aims to reduce noise rather than reduce lag. The indicator takes all prices into account and uses a long lookback period. Old prices are never removed from the calculation, but they have only a minimal impact on the Moving Average due to a low assigned weight. By reducing the noise it removes fluctuations and plots the prevailing trend. The SMMA can be used to confirm trends and define areas of support and resistance. It is often used in combination with other signals and analysis techniques.
