Indie - I was wondering whether you consider that the 11.5p resistance level has been well and truly breached?

pa,

It's beginning to look like it, but we've seen that its influence extends well above and below that actual level. It broke out past 11.5p to rise to ca. 13p but still fell back to the lower part of that S/R level, forming and breaking downward from a small triangle in the process. The triangle should be a dead letter in terms of influence by now.

I'm looking for a further move to confirm the upward break, and on increased volume. Remember that mine is a medium/long term risk-averse stance, so I'm not disagreeing with anyone with a different stance who thinks otherwise.

To add to the previous post-

A look at Bigcharts using Price/Vol bars shows that the clear S/R which used to be evident around 11-11.5p shows as being spread equally between 11 and 12p on the 6 month chart. On the 3 month chart, however, the picture looks different and this should be the main influence now.

It looks to me as though the S/R level is generated by the apexes (apices?)of the 2 triangles in that period and that both are now offering support. Although there are no overt signals (secondary indicators not looked at) yet, the picture is beginning to look more positive and there is even the possibility of a significant move shortly.

anyone any views on the impact of all the extra shares to be floated tomorrow?

judging by recent trading no-one has a clue.

Superrod - correct, none of us have a clue. I had assumed that in the run up to the the dilution that the share price would fall but "it seems" that the dilution has already been factored in - otherwise we would not have recovered from the sell off that took us down to 9.5p. Of course, everyone might wake up tomorrow and see red. Perhaps the static nature of the price reflects the continuing "mystery" of the deal to most holders. The deal sounds good but it does make price predictions even harder over the next year.

so thats cleared that up..........LOL

tomorrow will tell....i would say it bodes well that a mm is paying 2 ticks above bid for sells, but it wouldnt be the first time a mm strayed from their primary function to make a market and take a chance on the market like the rest of us punters.

could also be that tad will continue to trade in this range for weeks or months yet..........oh for a crystal ball

Superrod
IMO there will be no impact as no one can sell the new shares for 60 days.
If they could sell them I doubt they would as they know what deals they already have lined up.
The softbank deal is a massive deal and the holders of the new shares know the potential of the deal and the current shareprice doesn't reflect the potential hence why would they sell.
They might sell at 50p! There again they might not.

The present chart position is evolving positively, but at the moment it's all potential. The price lies on/above the 50 day EMA and not far below the 200 day EMA. Both are almost flat and it wouldn't take much to push above the 200day EMA. As long as the price then stayed above it on decent volume, a new medium/long term trend will be confirmed.

yuff
dont think im being negative ( been a tad holder over 10 years ) but if the softbank deal is so massive, how come no buys to speak of, no volume, no nothing?

Indieman

I have included the EMA's that you refer to. I am not too clever with
pasting graphs etc, but I think I have done it correctly.

Until its signed and sealed people will remain weary about the deal, also the only part that has been released relates to the $9m initial payment, the fact that Steig & co negotiated up to $150m in the first 2 years lets us know what he expects to get from the deal and as he expects to take the majority in shares one gets the feeling he doesn't expect the share price to drop when his deals hit the public domain.
Steig looked a pretty switched on character and with broadband penetration increasing daily so does our potential.

Looks right to me ML, thanks.

Yuff,
Not sure why you should be tired prior to the actual announcement; stress? (Joke).

Despite the EGM and documents, I get the feeling most people still don't feel that they understand the financial side of the deal. I know I don't, but then I don't make the effort to understand it. Lack of understanding tends to breed either inertia or concern, neither being positive. What is needed is a positive price trend so that people can become positive on the basis that others must be happy with the deal otherwise they wouldn't have bought.

Pregnant is the word right now.

i thought you were past it Indie LOL
