Going the way as I expected and hit 585.

[ali47fish] 12/7/2019 08:24

thanks aktybod- not a case of adding then

[actybod] 11/7/2019 21:42

It's been on a good run. Maybe support at 585 before bouncing again.

[ali47fish] 11/7/2019 10:03

why does this one keep dripping down?

[ali47fish] 25/6/2019 09:30

how come with the move to the 250 footsie, its coming down?

[bellymonster] 25/6/2019 08:43

Yeah I thought we'd got away with that directors deal as it was a week ago but I don't mind too much if it was to help satisfy institutional interest.They've had a good run so bit of a pull back might be expected.

[hazl] 25/6/2019 08:37

Disappointing director sales though Institution added this morning.
Make of it what you will.

Tree shake?

RED SURELY NOT?
Get to it KNOS!

[irishlass2] 09/6/2019 10:03

We should also have more funds buying in now that we have been accepted for FTSE250.

[hazl] 09/6/2019 09:44

It has a dividend later in the year ,which adds to the over-all effect.

[ali47fish] 09/6/2019 09:04

thank you Andy very appreciative i have also decided to do nothing for the moment-i hope i am right

[andygibb101] 08/6/2019 18:03

Hi Ali- just to avoid confusion I would add more at 40% up and when the total amount has doubled I would sell half.

I think KNOS has a bright future ahead- head count growth is always a good indicator for future growth and I am sticking with it.

[someuwin] 08/6/2019 18:02

I'm not selling any. KAINOS is growing fast and constantly hiring ever more staff. The world will never stop needing high quality software (especially as automated processes take 'real' jobs. So there's nothing to stop KNOS delivering double digit gains for many years to come.

Yesterday was a landmark day. We were promoted to the FTSE 250 . It's the cherry on the cake of an already hugely successful year, and we want to say a massive thank you to our people and our customers - it's all thanks to you Check out our recent highlights #KResults

thanks andy-the comment is specific to kainos and the 3d para in your statement is a bit ambiguous- you can't slice and average up at the same time- i have learnt and some pepole have commented on the high valuation being a risk. i think also that it is near the point where it might move to a the main market but when i am not sure- that might change the picture as the trackers can come on board!

[andygibb101] 08/6/2019 11:27

ali- I don't think it is Kainos specific, they mention a gain of over 200% since the tip. If that gain applied to your holding you should definitely have taken some profit along the way.

It is good to run your winners but you should have a plan for slicing off some profit every now and then.

I like to sell half if I double to recoup my initial stake and let the rest run until the company story changes. I also like to average up if a share has done well, usually doubling my stake if I get 40% share price growth from the initial purchase.

I am sure everyone has their own strategy and would be interesting to hear other peoples too. People have a plan on how to get rid of losers with stop losses etc but there seems to be less out there on when the best time to sell out for a profit should be. Sometimes that decision is made for you if the company gets bought out.

[ali47fish] 08/6/2019 08:37

can't work out why scsw says some profit should have been taken- is this because of the high pe?

The Dow is on our side today,sending stocks like this back up.

[hazl] 04/6/2019 09:24

continuing to creep up....

[irishlass2] 31/5/2019 16:21

Insideryou probably still taking steroids.

[ddav] 31/5/2019 15:21

Lost insideryou !

[stopps] 31/5/2019 15:17

Insider- you seem to have a character bias unduly concerned with the downside!

Can see this posting a 3 digit retreat sooner rather than later. Massive and continual rises even on bad days with pe in the stratosphere... Looks like a private plaything of those with very deep pockets, who as we know leave for the exit simultaneously and on to the next.
