I bought shares in this company at 4.5p in September 2003. I see they are rising. Can anyone tell me please the growth potential for this company as they have just been awarded several new contracts ?

Dipys,

Volatility in this type of share certainly appears to create a problem with stop losses. I suppose you can go one of two routes; except that the SP may fluctuate widly and don't use stop losses, risking your hard earned capital when a share underperforms like CMS or use stop losses, accept a dent may be made in your capital, but still be able to move onto something else. I think it really comes down to personal choice and exactly how much you are willing to lose. I think the hardest aspect of investing is to be disciplined, set targets and acceptable losses then move on whatever the outcome.

The other side of the coin is of course, Feeling that after waiting so long the sp has finally turned the corner and the price will rise to the heady levels speculated about. BUT only then see the sp reverse back to a loss and realising that you should have taken a smaller profit and sold rather than hoping for more and more.

How low is this going go ? We must be getting near to the point where it levels out and is then worth a punt ! I reckon about 3.0p-3.5p ? anyone any views ? apart from what a pile a pants this is turning out to be !)
Anyone, besides me, still holding ?
apart from what a pile a pants this is turning out to be )

Sorry, this is double pants !

Skyhigh

I am unfortunately still holding at a much higher level than the current SP, (too embarrassed to say exactly what level!). Probably level out at about 3p, but wouldn't be surprised to see it go lower. Desperately need some good news.

PTH

A jump today. Is there a TDI contract in the pipeline? One contract will see this double to 8p.

Also, a small rise yesterday on practically zero voume.

CMS WebView and ACTIV Financial agree joint marketing relationship
Published:
18 October 2004

Real-time data companies CMS WebView plc (CMS) and ACTIV Financial Systems, Inc. (ACTIV) have agreed a joint marketing relationship.

As part of the agreement CMS will create an interface for ACTIV's ActivFeed service, a composite exchange data feed, to be compatible with its own TDI(tm) system. TDI(tm) is a suite of software which processes, analyses, redistributes and stores vast amounts of real-time financial data.


Bob Antell, CEO of CMS, commented:


"While marketing TDI(tm) to the banking sector, we've seen a need for a quality consolidated equity feed that has minimum latency yet the full complement of data. Being able to offer TDI(tm) with an interface to the ActivFeed means there is a significant increase in the service we can provide to clients. The ease with which we have integrated the ActivFeed is an endorsement of the flexibility and format of the API and is also further evidence of the adaptability of TDI(tm). We look forward to further development of our business relationship with ACTIV."


Separately, CMS will market ActivFeed in parallel with its own TDI(tm) Feed, which carries a wide range of real-time data directly from many of the world's leading futures and options exchanges including the London Metals Exchange, New York Mercantile Exchange and the International Petroleum Exchange.


The Company has recently embarked on a sales and marketing initiative aimed at selling TDI(tm) to international banks. This is in addition to its existing market of international exchanges, including current customers the Chicago Board of Trade and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. CMS has sales operations in New York City and Chicago, as well as in the City of London.


ACTIV Financial Systems, Inc. is a vendor of low latency exchange content and real-time data management technology. Its ActivFeed provides real-time and/or delayed quote information together with integrated historical data, news and company fundamentals.


Steve McNeany, President of ACTIV, said:


"We see this relationship as endorsing our position as the provider of a world class, high quality direct feed product. The availability of an ActivFeed handler on TDI(tm) offers both CMS and ACTIV joint opportunities to provide a direct feed capability to our customers. We see the TDI(tm) platform as being uniquely capable of handling the high message rates and data volumes coming out of the US equities and options exchanges being delivered by ActivFeed."

GN

we're approaching the final two months of the year. No anouncements of contracts. CMS were hopeful of 5 this year. One would be nice to get the ball rolling. I'm down big time on this because I thought they were going to become industry standard. Please CMS,win a contract.

What does this mean?Is it a full TDI contract? If it is then I expect 2-3p to be added to share price.

Excellent news the market now requires speed of information more and more
organisations are going for direct data feeds this fits perfectly with the
Activ agreament. Cms could well be at the forefront of the new direction that
the industry is heading.

Bloodhound.

Just incase you haven't seen the RNS, can't see it on here.

profitmaker - its not a TDI contract, but it forms a much better position for TDI to be used. If people want TDI now, they dont need the full system/infrastructure setting up, they simply pay for using it through radianz. Makes the whole process a lot easier. Still think there may be some bigger news on the horizon.

How do CWV benefit from users going through Radianz? Wouldn't it be better for CWV for users to buy the system themselves? i.e. 1 TDI sale must be better than 10 Radianz users.

Yes I would imagine they would get alot less than a full TDI, but they don't need to do much marketing etc. It makes everything alot quicker and easier and also available to 10,000 potential customers.

How much lower can this one go???
Is it time to bail or sit tight???
Help anyone please
