Well, finally couldn't resist it.
I think next week's price is going higher after weekend press comment etc.
I'm in for the long haul.
I guess EVO's 20p target will be nearer 25p short term with this current upward momentum.
So I went 50% overweight.
If I'm wrong, I'll just have to buy even more on the dips.
Woof, woof!

What is overweight, does that mean your portfolio is top heavy with SEO.... Still learning the technical jargon...

My strategy is to divide my available funds equally across all holdings. This is described sometimes as equal weight - a fairly good basic ploy for a relative newcomer.
Evidently, if one can pick the right ones, investing more heavily in winners will enhance your profits.
For the first time, I have decided to allocate 50% more cash to SEO than to my other holdings, since it is the first time I a) have enough practice at simple buying and selling and b) have identified a stock which can't lose - at least over say a further 2 year period, but probably much nearer term as well.
Hope this helps. Wish me luck!

Thanks Stockdog, appreciate the lesson... Think I am very overweight on SEO now...

I am overweight too - at 18 stone - but I have also approx 50% of my portfolio in SEO - not something that I have done before - I usually try to keep a balance portfolio like Stockdog

I don't blame you bhunt. A nice position to top slice from as it goes up through certain levels. Where do you reckon that first level might be?

Are you saying that you should have the same amount invested in ,say BP,SHELL,TESCO,etc: as well as Caledon resources, New millieneium, and Toledo mining ? don't think that would be very wise, if you don't mind me saying.

Being a novice at this I am following the advice of other more seasoned practicioners who seem to indicate that 20p is a realistic target - although this seems to be being talked up.- I still a bit concerned about the 38m shares being released to the market on Monday

Those investers who are overweight in SEO, have you any stop-losses in place or have a short on say 25% .

No, I should qualify that, you're right.
I was referring only to my FastBuck Portfolio (as I call it) not core long-term holdings of dividend growing major companies, which I lazily (cowardly?) leave to Fund managers. I've also got the recommended immediate cash resources available on deposit for the various unexpected turns of life. My FastBuck fund is money that would not change my life if I lost most of it (heck, I'd be damned annoyed though!). Oh, I feel so ADULT saying things like that!
I've set myself a little competition to see if a relatively small portfolio personally, actively managed will result in the same pension fund as a much larger fund (4 X) managed by professionals. So far I'm where I want to be.
I'm also having a lot of fun on the way, finding out about biodegradable plastic meat lids, coffee houses in Warsaw, oil (and gold) in the Falklands, but especially meeting to all you guys on the boards.
I have a bizarre fantasy about actually visiting all the places where the companies in which my money is invested operate around the world - Jules Verne, but in a bit more comfort. Do you think there'd be any takers for a charter flight one way round the world?
Happy weekend everyone.

Amities / Bonsoir mon ami, - ,Superrod. une clappe dans le dos !!!! pdv .....ln knowing most serious traders are percentage players, i concede, i somewhat envisaged, a friday afternoon of sizeable sell trades as considerable profits were turned from mere paper gains to tangible banked profit! and mms cosed the book for the week . . Especially considering SEO'somewhat prodigious percentile rise this past ten days . But not even the ovule of serious sellers materialized. Pity as i was hoping to accumulate . .... . Albeit volumes appear almost 50% down it was the scale of the 200k purchases above 17p that makes me think SEO will hit Evos target of 20p early next week . ,,,,,,,,soyez patient!! ..lol mais ma patience des a' bout !! ,nous vous souhations tres bonne chance ,,,a 'bientot .....@+ J ,...Lets all hope for some decent exposure in the press over the weekend ,

Bosley, only just back from a hard day on the road selling packaging materials. Like you I agree we are all big boys and girls and should be able to vent our feelings if we want. So will the doubters who keep bringing the CC up, shut the fuck up and enjoy this for what it is "a brilliant chance to make a huge amount of money". I know Andy S through the trade and we have talked about SEO non stop for nearly a year. Let's keep the site upbeat.

I normally keep a fairly evenly balanced portfolio, but SEO seems to have gone heavyweight of it it's own accord. :-)

I agree. I am currently up over 45k having taken the risk at 6.5p & 9.5p.
I will see how things go next week before cashing in !
Good weekend to all, especially SEO holders.
