Was tempted to get back into alent and have a buy which didn't get triggered i'm a bit nervy at the moment due to macro issues so not too disappointed to hold some cash. Was also looking short term at RMG.

Hi Rabbar Alent taking a bit of hit. Looks nice swing trade buy 325-330p sell 370p pity I sold too early lol. Traded Rmg today Closed half before close. Got rid of some drax as well had far too many.

[wipo1] 10/2/2015 11:40

I can't see much else, small cap FIF one to watch still good value.

[wipo1] 10/2/2015 11:36

Hi Rabbar I am in Drax for short to medium term looking to get out around 450p.

[rabbar] 10/2/2015 09:46

Wipo Think I will lower my re-entry looking for a short term play any snippets on Drax? looks like there is upside there. Is your purchase long or short term?

[wipo1] 09/2/2015 14:17

Hi Rabbar ftse 250 back out of favour which was a good time to buy last time? You might get the Alent stock you sold for £3.40 or £3.50

[wipo1] 06/2/2015 16:04

sold another 1000 today stuck some cash in Drax

Hi Rabbar Yes it's good to have long and trading positions in good quality stocks it lets you have profits in volatile markets.A rally underway today I am not chassing anything though. Nothing I fancy atm

[rabbar] 02/2/2015 15:53

That's the aim Wipo - profits. I was doing quite a lot of that when the markets were more volatile but missed out on a couple of major profits by selling out too soon [TW.] being one of those. Now I have some long-terms and some which I intend to dip in and out of.

[wipo1] 02/2/2015 15:08

Well done Rabbar great price. £3.80 looks the top of market maybe £4.00 at a push for ALNT. I sold some vsvs because of weakness in europe strong pound as well. Needed funds for Statoil on Friday now sold that on the bouce happy days pity about expensive exchange rate fees. Still a profit in bank.

[rabbar] 02/2/2015 12:06

Wipo sold about 1/4 of holding at £3.80 but still hold a fair amount. Think if markets remain stable will go back up so may buy back same amount but want to hold some cash if markets show signs of jitters. Still think there may be some problems due to Greece and our own elections coming up.

[wipo1] 02/2/2015 10:51

Hi Rabbar, Well done ALNT, I hope you got out at better price than me, I got caught in bear trap or when JP Morgan selling, I would not chase now, would buy lower down, good luck.

[rabbar] 01/2/2015 12:53

Hi Wipo, thanks totally missed the RNS. Sold some ALNT prior to Greece elections to hold some cash. Typically though result has hardly affected market (yet). Might buy back if price falls below 350.

[wipo1] 30/1/2015 16:09

I sold a 1000 odd at 441.7p trimming my portfolio, would rather scalp a few points here and there and sit on mostly cash. Just a bit nervous with overnight positions

[wipo1] 28/1/2015 14:18

Hello Rabbar I am still watching mgam, I do prefer vsvs though. I will do some research and get back to you.

[rabbar] 05/1/2015 15:35

I think, like a lot of people, I must have missed the RNS about the proposed merger falling through which was mentioned 1st December. Anyone know anything about the other company Morgan Advanced Materials?

[wipo1] 11/12/2014 11:30

Does anyone know any reason for fall today? I don't have flash headline access!

[wipo1] 24/10/2014 14:16

Interim Management statement looks ok, However I don't like the use of the 'challenging' word being used a few times. Just a hold for me atm not adding.

[wipo1] 13/10/2014 12:51

Codek - I would not take much notice of broker notes. Ubs last month upgraded the stock obviously to suck in buyers to allow their clients to sell.

[codek] 13/10/2014 11:08

Seems analyst confidence is falling too, also on no news. However, still implies an 11% upside from here

Broke 410p now. I am breaking my rules not selling here. Stop loss shifted to 399p

[wipo1] 10/10/2014 09:49

Rabbar Yes sounds wise not to panic, there is no major fundamental change that we known of atm. My gut feeling is we are near the bottom as long as we hold 410p. Still sitting on my hands but very tempted to drip feed a few at these low prices. Good luck

[wipo1] 10/10/2014 09:45

Codek - You can't rule out someone has info of forthcoming bad news, but it does look like a cyclical stocks sell off everything from gkn mro to tw. Ect.

[rabbar] 10/10/2014 09:37

Hi wipo1, no money to invest at the moment otherwise might be tempted also, but not too concerned regarding drop. Just taking dividends and waiting for Cevian to show their hand regarding these but mainly with Alent.
