Aphro - you still in, the drop below 37p has been on less average volume bwdik.

I am still holding I think we can do with the sale news to push north of 40p.

Into the blue

The sub 37.5p days have NOT been particularly high or low volume - about 8 million or so.

Higher vol days can often be 10 million +.

Lower volume days can be sub 5 million.

Just looks like churn to me and TW. following the mkt's lead

Well, rip-off copies...

Good company XYZ.

I think they make zips.

[clarky5150] 12/7/2011 10:04

The problem with the markets nowardays is a hell of a lot of people have exposure to it through modern communications so everybody and their dog fancies stock trading cos we all know of the freind of a friend who made easy money on XYZ.
Low exposure to the worry of the day matters not a jot, people top up and sell their holdings when they see movement. It creates instability in good companies and blurrs actual recoveries or failings in the short term.
Unless you are a day trader look at your exit point and timeframes. Anything imbetween is just turbulence.

IMHO (and no i dont hold any XYZ)

[sir rational] 12/7/2011 09:45

Easy 3% recovery here today

[imastu pidgitaswell] 12/7/2011 08:36

Yes, TW has a large exposure to the Italian property market, as we know.

Erm...

(Really wouldn't mind seeing the TM deal closed, pronto...)

No real reason is the answer.

[shaws37] 12/7/2011 08:03

what a humping this is getting, and for what real reason ?

[sir rational] 11/7/2011 14:40

What's good volume? lol

[aphrodites] 11/7/2011 13:08

Depends on which portfolio you are dealing with.

That's why it is so important to differentiate between a trading and investment portfolio.

A trading portfolio is, as you say, short term and you must have firm rules to operate around.

The traders are obviously chart driven on this one and they will test the 37p barrier.

[imastu pidgitaswell] 11/7/2011 10:26

Thanks. Makes sense, although tough to play the medium term game when the short term gains are declining - I know I would always cut and run, but that's why I'm not a trader.

[aphrodites] 11/7/2011 09:55

imastu

37p was an important break level for me on the way up and I bought in size just after the break. It was the 3rd wave in the series of 5 and as I have said many times here, it is usually the strongest. It also took the wave up through the previous 37p which was wave 1.

As you will see from the 6 month graph, wave 3 has been the strongest wave in this series of 5 and I hope it would test the 40p level. I did warn that "big figures" always prove a barrier as they have this time.

So wave 3 has now peaked at 38.75p and we are now in wave 4 downwards.

37p will need to hold to take us back up into the 39p region and hopefully to test 40p.

I have not commented on wave 3 patterns that do occasionally follow a 5 wave series, as this would only confuse everyone. But a break of 37p on good volume would make me look to sell my position.

If it breaks 37p on good volume then all the bets are off.

APHRODITES - 30 Jun'11 - 13:05 - 8896 of 8982


Bought in size today on the break of 37p.

Looks like we are in the third leg of 5 which is usually the strongest wave.




Genuine question - have you given up on this move yet? Or still expecting 40p+?

Hello Sir Rational, hope you are well. Just to advise that before you can sell a share you first have to buy the blighters. If I can be of any further assistance please ask. Ed
