Sopheon Share Discussion Threads

Oh no here we go again with another tipster..

From the Naked Trader Article today. That might explain the rise this afternoon.

And I added some more Sopheon (SPE).

Already going very nicely since I bought the first lot there seems to be more interest in it now after it said it expected profits to be "significantly" ahead.

One magazine claimed it could even double from here which seems a bit rich to me, but perhaps at least 500p from here is possible. Maybe more.

I suspect a few disillusioned holders who bought on the shares mag tip.

[interceptor2] 07/2/2017 16:48

fwiw cfro, I have approximately the same EPS pencilled in to the full year.

And agree that today is just normal profit taking, nothing goes up in a straight line. Well apart from G4M which I sold a few weeks ago, mustn't complain because I still made a decent profit :o)

[cfro] 07/2/2017 16:17

Healthy profit-taking today..

I think the upcoming results to be released on March 23rd will show just how cheap these still are...despite a strong rise in price over the last year.

I have penciled in eps of c.40p which would mean a Pe of only ten at this price.

Can't keep going up, profit taking.

[luckymouse] 07/2/2017 11:25

Just a few different ways to establish targets which seem to suggest the same area

[runthejoules] 04/2/2017 19:11

I got shaken out of the tree (my own fault - silly panic, never sell a good stock that goes down for no reason) just before the shares tip - and had to go out that day, bought back in on Friday, only to have it drop! Still, long term prospects are great. But you think it falls or rises sharply due to liquidity issues? I thought that it fell c.25% during Sept / Oct simply because it had risen too high on August's low volume and then fell with the US election uncertaintly (and because they're just bad months). Was it down to low volume selling?

Hi Lucky Mouse
Can you explain that chart - what are the lines drawn and what are the indicators saying. Thanks

[chadders] 03/2/2017 23:09

firtashia, I can relate to that, but again no hard and fast rules for me - other than watch and wait before pulling the trigger.

[firtashia] 03/2/2017 07:37

Enjoying the discussion about averaging down. I'm happy to average down when buying under the radar small/micro caps like SPE which can fluctuate >20% for no discernible reason except for liquidity. For the larger, liquid companies which are teeming with brokers and analysts there's no way I'd average down. I bought here at 2.90 and was sorely tempted to pick up some more at 2.40 about a month later, but I didn't have the £. Anyone doing so would have been handsomely rewarded.

[chadders] 02/2/2017 23:15

PJ, if you do your research it often pays to average down. In my experience anyway, but certainly never try to catch a falling knife. Patience required in every case.

[janeann] 02/2/2017 22:14

well it did a power of good for spe today!

[pj 1] 02/2/2017 22:10

LOL very true

Strangely janeann I find sharesmag articles rarely have any direct infuence on the share price short term, and they do have a fair share of losers. Med/long term though I wouldn't have a clue except they raraly report an average return >10%, if they beat the market at all?

Its great for background/ research notes though

[janeann] 02/2/2017 21:41

Has anyone done any research into the average percentage rise following a shares mag tip - would be interesting here!

PS Im selling Pel on the way up as its easer to get out!

[pj 1] 02/2/2017 21:34

Janeann-yes fair comment, In my defence that was the last share i have done that on, with the benefit of hindsight, I would have waited until the quite long consolidation period and the breakout from that range.

Still valuable lessons learned though and I'd still advise (esp new investors) to never average down.

[janeann] 02/2/2017 21:13

sorry trinko - will be on the shelves either today or tomorrow....


and PJ - didn't you buy any PEL on the way down?

[pj 1] 02/2/2017 20:55

Easy. Buy shares going up

Sell shares going down.

Never reverse the above tactic.

[qs99] 02/2/2017 18:58

haha, Chadders priceless, main thing IMO is that momentum is with the share price and the business it would seem, and financial metrics appear IMO still attractive DYOR but market is showing the way higher!

[chadders] 02/2/2017 18:31

Fantastic stuff guys, I just wish I understood it! Can you recommend an idiots guide to charting. Cheers.

[bamboo2] 02/2/2017 13:34

Hi trinko, I was just looking at the chart. Minimum tp for INVH&S is 494, so very similar to the target for the Rising Wedge[486]

In fact pattern is called a Complex INVH&S

[trinko] 02/2/2017 13:34

janeann do you have a link??

Thanks

[kryptonsnake] 02/2/2017 13:28

Added some more just now. Should have done it while it was under £4! oh well it's looking good anyway.
