Looking for a breakout on the weekly.

Two trading sessions to pull it off:

citigroup has an aggressive price target

[stromboli1] 15/5/2007 08:18

Whsh I had followed my own instinct with these and purchased a year back!

[stromboli1] 12/4/2007 07:32

look at highlights section in prelims 6/03/07.
Agree Hyper - this may not apply to Edinburgh!

"is we know wickes going well"

As far as I can see not in Edinburgh!!

But it is next door to a very large B&Q!

Must admit I still pop in!

[stromboli1] 11/4/2007 19:20

chart is beginning to look like last years! maybe should be short not long....hmm. Difference is we know wickes going well?

Anyone aware that TP are undergoing a massive Store upgrade programme?
sorry if this has been mentioned before.

Edit for 'upgrade' replace with 'Building'
New stores are being built on existing premises with the intention of leasing of part of the land to others.

jeffian makes a good point i work for TP and wickes we are told have been performing well, we expect them to be a big part of the group, weekend/late opening and all that, tp and keyline and the rest wont they will concentrate on trade and let wickes take on homebase etc

[mickconn11] 20/12/2006 09:08

Looks like it wants to test the all time high now.

[jeffian] 11/12/2006 09:46

The difference is that Next is a fashion retailer which has been very much at the top of its game for several years and priced accordingly, but vulnerable to any downturn in consumer spending, whilst TPK has substantial wholesale exposure (still underpinned by strong housing market) and seems to be integrating its retail arm - Wickes - rather better than the market had dared to hope. There's charts, and there's real life!

Regards, Ian

[mickconn11] 11/12/2006 09:28

Could be a triple top situation.

Very similar chart to Next before a 200 plus points drop.

[jeffian] 26/10/2006 11:42

The shorters have gone very quiet here. What does it cost to be short from 1712 to 1850?

[jeffian] 14/9/2006 09:40

jeffian:
and those who bought at 1714p...what happen to them? nursing their losses?"

Errrrr......no (but some of the shorts may have singed their fingers, eh?)

8-)

[penycae] 14/9/2006 07:30

There she goes.

[penycae] 12/9/2006 08:42

Only a very wide spread holding this up as far as I can see.

[jeffian] 04/9/2006 22:16

How're the shorts going?

[watwungyi] 31/8/2006 07:51

Unless it breaks 1700 another time, I think it's not wrong to short it. That's one year resistence. I already did now putting stop loss at 1720.

[jeffian] 29/8/2006 18:31

Jaafar1,
Depends whether you're a daytrader or investor, I suppose. I paid 587 at the end of 2000, so today's +34 seems quite a nice rise to me but I can see that those paying 1714 today and expecting an instant profit within 24 hours may be disappointed. On the other hand, they may think it has further to go in the medium term. We shall see.

Regards, Ian

[jaafar1] 29/8/2006 14:52

[jaafar1] 29/8/2006 14:27
