daveboy19....I know! It is so easy to over think. Psychologists studies show that the lost utility from losing £1k is ten times what the gained utility from gaining £1k. We mourn losses. The fear of losing what we have already gained begins to prey on our minds.

That is why constant research is key. It keep the future path clear so that we KNOW that the right decision is to SIT ON OUR HANDS!!!!

I remember many years ago (early 2000's) owning 200,000 AHT shares bought at well under 10p. Think that would've been worth almost £10m if I'd just held! Sadly I sold at 25p banking what I thought to be an amazing profit at the time.

[daveboy19] 16/4/2021 09:55

Just took my initial £11K stake off the table at 3.98. Shame but had been burnt on some others at the time which affected my decision making on this. The rest are a free ride (half a million), and have negated most of my current paper losses on my heavily invested, FDA approved bow-wow !!

zak mir will be all over this

As ever it is always a personal decision. Someone who went in heavily at under 2p might sell half and let the rest run at 4p. Others who had a much smaller stake may let the whole thing run and see what happens. It's never wrong to take a profit. My best results have always come from buying and holding for a period of at least 6-12 months + rather than scalping a few percent here and there but to each his own.

Thanks to all the posters of really interesting and useful information here.

Completely agree with your sentiments - its a very rate occurrence.

[andyview] 16/4/2021 09:28

Agree with both of you and the sentiment; I do have irrational trading tendencies and I'm overmuch trying to keep them under wraps here..so far so good !

Thanks both

allstar4eva.....fully agree. I have shares in "boring" things like RDSB, NEX, SAGA, etc etc. Those will never 100 bag. I have shares that might 5 bag like AGL, MCRO. I have shares that might 100 bag like ITX, ENET, ARS. The latter are keep as a dream.

With ITX the dream is becoming real. It makes up for all the past failures on the "dream" shares. How many times have i walked the Boulevard of Broken Dreams (Green Day)

[allstar4eva] 16/4/2021 09:22

Andy for me the whole point of investing in these types of stocks is to dream. 5 10 20 100 bagger possibilities. You can never have a chance if a 100 bagger if you sell after 100 or 200 percent increase...

[purchaseatthetop] 16/4/2021 09:21

andyview....normally I would. However, there are really rare shares where I will not sell. ITX is one. We have still only just begun the journey with ITX. It would be like selling Tesla when they were $10 a share.

[janhar] 16/4/2021 09:20

Definitely:)

[purchaseatthetop] 16/4/2021 09:19

9p sell now.

Is everybody in the ITX Club enjoying themselves still?

Hell yes!!!!

[andyview] 16/4/2021 09:18

how do you manage to refrain from selling 'purchase' when you're sitting on such a healthy pile !

[purchaseatthetop] 16/4/2021 09:16

dougerboy...I hit 1m when the share price was 4.9. Now up to 1.6m but still buying small amounts. Added 16,905 this morning. Every little helps!

Blimey, I'm feeling car sick!!

9.06 to purchase on IG ..

[dougerboy] 16/4/2021 08:52

That’s a good shout patt on a NDA being possible reason for not fanfaring the descaling patent hxxps://patents.justia.com/patent/10738139
Our CEO loves keeping some of his powder dry I think. I thought I was adequately invested at 1M+ shares. Now I’m not so sure. Aarghh!

[purchaseatthetop] 16/4/2021 08:39

Word is out. Bit like when you loved a little rock band and it was your personal secret. Then they hit it big.

[andyview] 16/4/2021 08:36

looks like they are after stock for sure - bid up to 8.7

[purchaseatthetop] 16/4/2021 08:35

There was a 1.1m sale yesterday that was disclosed. It had been keeping the price down. Now it will rise to 10p IMO. Buy now and enjoy later.

[andyview] 16/4/2021 08:22

me at 8.70...it hurt but buying is strong agin !

gla

[purchaseatthetop] 16/4/2021 08:21

Just added at 8.698p. My highest ever price paid beating the 8.08p previous record

[purchaseatthetop] 16/4/2021 06:39

Parob...it is all about having more knowledge and understanding of where ITX are going than the rest of the market. The list of products that is done by those dedicated to that process added to the scouring job adverts to patent applications mean that we know better than everyone who does not read the Management Accounts.

It is why we were buying heavily when the share price drifted at 4.7p. Others were selling and we were buying. It is why I still am buying at 7p and 8p. Because Thordon is right....if we have patience we will get 100p.

All IMO only and do not believe a word I write (except you know I am right)

Another find by AJS.Blog post by Puracy (an Itaconix client that uses Sodium Zinc Polyitaconate in their deodorant) 7 days ago.Why Puracy Deodorant Was Worth the WaitYou can't rush perfection: From research to launch, discover how Puracy created (what we believe) is the best natural deodorant on the market today.April 9th, 2021hTTps://puracy.com/blogs/wellness/why-natural-deodorantThe Missing Ingredient In Our Deodorant Itaconix recommended trying sodium zinc polyitaconate, a natural odor blocker that's clinically-proven to be a safe and effective solution for sensitive skin. After thoroughly reviewing their clinical data, we incorporated sodium zinc polyitaconate into our formula. The results? Three simple swipes ("up, down, up") and every customer got at least 8 hours of odor protection. In many cases, odor protection went up to 14 hours.
