[fewdollarsmore] 08/2/2011 20:38

Jibba any chance you can add the daily volume to the header?

[sir rational] 08/2/2011 16:35

37.76 decent volume

[98viilage] 08/2/2011 16:23

Big jump for RDW. Aren't they the next one to report?

[sir rational] 08/2/2011 16:07

Bit of catch-up tomorrow?

[sir rational] 08/2/2011 15:50

There's good churn here, that's another 10m traded.

[fewdollarsmore] 08/2/2011 15:08

this has rebounded a couple of times now with the US opening... perhaps some interest from accross the pond!

[sir rational] 08/2/2011 15:00

Back into the blue...

[imastu pidgitaswell] 08/2/2011 14:43

To be honest, I think that's exactly what I should do - fire and forget for a few years, or at least until the next election is looming and all manner of feelgood bribes are being thrown at the electorate. By which time, housebuilders will be enjoying large profits and valuations some way in excess of current prices.

As I have demonstrated many times, I am totally unable to trade in and out with any degree of success, but I do seem to keep trying.

:-)

Looking quite good now for an intra-day reversal - very bullish...

[homeboy35] 08/2/2011 14:33

I bought at 31p then watched them drop to 22p.............. gonna keep for a couple of years though.. just thought I would tell the whole world that

[imastu pidgitaswell] 08/2/2011 14:15

Wendsworth - not likely, at these prices.

I'm certainly not selling for a loss, it's just that if I (after 15 bloody months and seeing the investment almost half in value at the trough) see a profit, many nice logical thoughts and principles might go out of the window.

It is really the simple concept of support and resistance - I am one of the people inclined to sell (some) at a certain price, hence making it resistance. If it goes through it without much trouble, then I wouldn't be tempted any longer to sell, as I believe its true value to be somewhere above 50p - after all that's why I bought the bloody things for between 41 and 44p...

:-)

[sir rational] 08/2/2011 12:16

That's a bit more sustainable than the 'wonder channel'

[wendsworth] 08/2/2011 11:57

kfp : Indeed!

imastu ; Don't weaken! As the MMs drop the price so the buyers come in.
Just waiting for the key U.S. news for the next significant leg-up.

[sir rational] 08/2/2011 11:57

I'm perfectly confident that the uptrend will continue after a bit of consolidation.

[imastu pidgitaswell] 08/2/2011 11:35

I did - on both counts.

Just that I didn't anticipate that the potential spread of the averaging would have been so wide - my lowest purchase was around 41p...

Uuuurgh.



Some stop-seeking going on right now?
Edit - just a 500,000 conditional trade. Low volume today so far, makes it hard to shift anything...

[smurfy2001] 08/2/2011 11:27

imastu , did you buy a considerable chunk of shares then? Just wondering if you considered averaging down?

[imastu pidgitaswell] 08/2/2011 09:44

I don't think anyone wants house prices to rise (it will only end like last time) - nor to fall.

Just predictable stability and an increase in transaction volumes back to something like normality.

Too much to ask? Probably.


Quite a lot of resistance levels this side of 44-45p, unfortunately. Might result in some swings between 38-40 and 45 for a while. Which would be bad for me, as I don't see myself selling this side of 45 'cos I won't be in profit until then. I suppose that thinking may change as we get nearer, weak as I am...




And to re-open an old debate, I am wondering if the relatively lacklustre response to the golden cross a while back was because it was not a true golden cross - if you use the simple moving average rather than the exponential ma, the 200 day average was not moving up at the time. Just a thought, irrelevant as always...

House prices rise as supply dries up
By BFN News | 07:01 AM | Tuesday 08 February, 2011

The latest data from the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) shows house prices at a six-month high in January as the availability of homes to buy shrank. The number of estate agents and surveyors saying prices fell exceeded those seeing gains by 31 percentage points, the highest reading since July, and compared with minus 39 in December, RICS said today.
