I think that was true in the last great bull market 1989 to 2000. Not so sure now though. I think the debate may centre round the expression "so-called" in truth.

"if you stick a pin in the F.T share page you will do just as good as the so-called expert"
Thats what Evil K does , but he picks the share next to the share that the pin went in.

Driver - you mean I should stop using that method? I've been trying to stick triangles into the FT when they're only two thirds complete. I keep breaking out - in a lather. What thread is this by the way? Looking good for Monday.

Triangles, sounds like a hair dressers shop. Is someone taking the p***, there is only one sort of triangle worth studying and it's not the Bermuda triangle or what's beed discussed above. Let's get back on track with the thread and talk about why SEO will move north. I believe Andy S was taking the mickey in his post.

it all seems to be taking a long time for anything tangible to appear...does anyone feel a 60 day exclusive option to anyone [however grand in volume terms] when there is considerable interest by others, is a mistake, particulary as no fee appears to have been paid...if asda reject for whatever reason [royalty too big etc.] seo and all of us will be up a gum tree.

I would think that 60 days is a pretty tight turnaround to negotiate conclusive heads of agreement for this deal.
I think ASDA may be considered to have paid an option fee by paying for the trials in the first place.
I think we're all a little impatient - what does 30 days matter over a 1, 2 or 5 year view?
Whilst we're waiting, we talk of triangles. What do you do with a triangle in a hairdresser's by the way?

tipton , if asda reject there will be others. there were others before asda, there will be others after asda, whatever happens.. seo was always going to rise. all that the asda trial has done is give us more profile. i disagree totally with your last remark.nothing has changed, the potential of seo is still the same. asda being interested merely confirms the potential. my feeling is that asda will do a deal because they are american owned and they want to be number one. seo's technology can help them do that. if they want an exclusive deal they will have to pay for that.

sd, would love to talk triangles but it depends which ones you want to talk about. hypotenuse or isoseles?

Accord, apart from the FT book which I mentioned in my earlier message, and which is a good introduction, the best book I have ever seen on TA is "Encyclopedia of Chart Patterns" by Thomas Bulkowski. This is the only book on TA which I know of which provides a serious statistical analysis of each of the patterns he describes, backed up by back-analysing decade worth of share price data.
But this highlights the key point of TA - it is primarily a statistical tool and in order to profit from it you need to be willing, in my opinion, to trade a lot of shares frequently, keep your eye on them and sell the one which have failed in their pattern.

I dont know what some of you are getting jittery about,,has SEO got something special,, yes,,are Asda ,Tesco, Sainsbury,,etc going to want it,,yes,, .There may be some ups and downs along the way but look back in a year or so.....JB

Yes, Jimmy, we agree, but back to TA for a moment, Bulkowski is a perfect example of trisyllabic serendipity. The first two syllables mean look at me whichever way you want, I can be your dream whatever it is. The third relates to the graceful decline in value of the pure chartist's portfolio.

well said jimmyb.i dont want to speak too soon but it does seem kind of embarrassing how happy i was when we hit 8p not too long ago.we are all sitting pretty on nice profit margins, and we all know there is going to be more coming soon; if not from the asda announcement then from someone else.
driver, you must be psychic...........
