Yes what will tomorrow bring. We'll see.

A lot of the weather problem is 2010.

Very nice recent trend.

Green line hit.....will it be breakout?

so we ended the day with a healthy 4.13% rise - I wonder what we can expect tomorrow? But if anything I don't feel tremulous of the trading update as I had been in the past. My only real worry to some extent is whether the weather has negatively affected trading...but if insiders are right and the rises over the last few days were due to insider trading the update shouldn't be bad.

And i noted shares mag have recommended rank shares today.

Interesting, up 2 1/2p on virtually no volume???

[grizzly bare] 07/1/2010 09:22

Well done guid.

We are hitting green line upper resistance of uptrend channel intraday.

As you say, will it hold interday?

We will see.

hey morning climb has already reached my target lol if only it will hold! ;)

[guidfarr] 06/1/2010 21:39

86p has held which is good and I expect some buying tomorrow from traders wanting to have a position before the trading update...hope it inches up another couple of cents!...this should be trading at over 100p +

Some ones a seller at the moment and the share price is not really being effected???

130,000 'O' Sell with Conditions attached.

Just a reminder ...... a trading statement for The Rank Group Plc for the 52 weeks to 31 December 2009 will be released at 7am on Friday, 8 January 2010.

04-Jan-10 Panmure Gordon Buy Target Price 124p

guidfarr - I think that 'O' trades, especially those with Conditions attached and late after hours reported are far more important to look at.

16.51 - 140,500 'O' SELL plus the 16.52 - 19,500 'O' SELL (total 160,000) both with Conditions attached for example.

[grizzly bare] 05/1/2010 17:56

Logan - thats why, as it was only this late UT which affected the price by such a large amount, that I thought for charting purposes I might ignore it, particularly as it was immediately reversed first thing this morning.

This is the close of play chart for today if we ignore that single late UT trade at the end of yesterday. The test will next come when it heads towards magenta again ....hopefully after first hitting green. Another higher high is good.

guidfarr - I Personally I never take any notice of 'UT' trades as they are pretty much meaningless on the actual state of play. Usually they tend to be either the first trade of the day or more usually one of the very last trades of the day, after 16.30.

'UT ' Uncrossing Trade - This is used for the single uncrossing trade, detailing the total executed volume and uncrossing price as a result of a SETS auction.

[grizzly bare] 05/1/2010 12:12

Wow now shot up to 86p!

Maybe that trading statement is gonna be good after all ....or maybe word getting out that Guoco are getting ready to pounce :-)

Will the gain hold?

Intraday the possible uptrend channel looks like this at the moment.

Well we've opened this morning straight back into that forming uptrend channel. Let's hope that's where we stay. Maybe we can ignore that single end of day UT trade which took us out of the uptrend.

Actually guid the Rank share has followed textbook charting in the past. The problem is always identifying the exact paramiter of the channel in it's early days. Once formed it's been relatively easy.

Fingers crossed for the trading statement.

[guidfarr] 04/1/2010 21:06

haha grizz i don't think guoco follow charts - the only adversity i can think of is the weather which might have dampened out some casino visits. and that UT trade of UT trade of 565,793 was that one order?

[grizzly bare] 04/1/2010 17:11

Now chartwise this doesn't look good! And on a day when the ftse 250 is up over 200 points.

Guess the trading statement may not be what the market had been expecting.

[guidfarr] 04/1/2010 17:10

what is that UT trade of 565,793 at 80.23!!? a poor day on low volume and then you get this?

[grizzly bare] 04/1/2010 08:49

Yes missed it. Good old Goldmans. Never know what they are up to.

My holdings are only 40,000 shares now but 110p would be very acceptable. I am back in at an average of 82p.

Maybe they are trying to encourage Guoco to make a bid now before the share price reaches this level!

Grizzly xx

[loganair] 03/1/2010 16:04

Just in case any one missed this.

On the 17th December dear old Goldmans Sachs gave a NEW increased price target for Rank of 110p with a BUY recommendation.

I wonder if this is the likely Guoco bid price should a take-over materialise???

[grizzly bare] 01/1/2010 15:37

Thanks Logan, Happy New Year to you too.

I am in UK, back to Thailand in a week or so.

Enjoy your holiday.

Happy New Year to all the hard suffering Rank share holders and hopefully a prosperous one (Guoco and Goldmans willing) from a cold, snowy and sunny St Petersburg.

[grizzly bare] 30/12/2009 13:42

Guid - out in Thailand they teach you that life is about suffering and Bhuddism is about how to handle it! We've had good experience with Rank.

Oh well. At least we appear to be back in an uptrend channel and with Guoco now unable to increase their stake without a full bid, there is always the daily possibility of that happening.

[guidfarr] 30/12/2009 09:41

slow and painful up climb - why did it crash so fast then, recall grizzly how much we used to suffer everyday grrrr

[grizzly bare] 29/12/2009 17:07

Still looking ok. Uptrend channel intact. But should hit magenta interday before hitting green again if all goes to plan.
