Morning.

Missed a couple of early movers, but trigger finger never good on Mondays! ;-)

Have a good day.

mornin all

Long MRS 237

Big Al - you'll have to work out a warm up programme for that trigger finger! In reply to earlier question, I was away in April. See BHG small rise again today, I like to support the local product!

Have a good day.

jj - tell me about it! ;-)

MRS going well though, so happy there.

Morning all,

Been catching up after that long weekend break.
This thread's really taken off now, took ages to read
Thur/Fri threads.

Need to tune back in after the break. At first glance, the
Ftse has finally closed the gap open from last Monday and
Asia has took the US futures down and Europe has followed it.

So I've took the profit on the Nas100 short whilst I try and
sort out what's going on. Will open it again if US shows
weakness or closes the gap down open and starts to drop again.
Just 2 Ftse Mid-caps longer term longs open at the moment.
Small positions that seem to be going nowhere at the moment.
Nothing to get excited about, either way.

Melnibone.

Morning! DNX continuing to firm in nice uptrend. Target 320p initially then a bigger breakout possible.

Hawick

Nice to see! Hopefully the long term trading range has now been broken and it will be upwards from here. I am holding these for the long term (i thought i was the only one interested in these on this board) - the fundamentals are strong - some good drilling news would be nice!

You probably know fundamentalist already, LSE ran an article last week saying:

As well as upgrading Cairn to buy, Teather has raised Melrose Resources, Venture Production and Burren Energy to buy and Dana Petroleum to a strong buy.
It believes Dana's exploration programme could add 100p to the share price, which closed up 3 1/2p at 282 1/2p yesterday.

DNX is one of my long term holdings.

MRS going up nicely, Big Al will be happy.

Hawick

thanks, yes i did see that. all good news.

jj50 - good to see all the DNX holders coming out!

jj - just a bit!! ;-))

JKX might be another to conisder in the oil portfolio.

Went long PLR on the earlier drop.

Loads of volume now with some rather massive trades. Not sure what's going on, but happy as long as 120p holds pretty well.

MRS got a shake on.

Afternoon all

left my short CTM position open over the weekend (they pay me interest for being short, so I don't have to close the position!)

I'm going to let it run a little more - I have a tendancy of not letter shorts run long enough, so its going to be hard letting this one continue.

Anyone follow Torotrak and know why it is up 10%+ today - is there leak of a deal at long last? Cant find any news anywhere.

Aslo, Melnibone, do you still follow SKP. Up 5% today on good volume. Strikes me as too much of a rise just for a broker upgrade. Is the final deal coming?

Stuck ROK in the ISA before it popped. When it moves, it moves.

Just happy to see SKP rising - thought it was because they expect to license their pulmonary franchise in the near future. Dresdner gave a figure of 94p.

Hello campers:
Went to a meeting organised by Hargreaves Lansdowne at chester on Friday.The speakers were from t1ps -Tom Winnifrith,Monisha Varadan and Zak Mir.
Monisha talked about the ofex market -the pros and cons etc. It was quite informative.
Zak Mir -talked about technical analysis and was basically touting for anyone to subscribe to his Ta site. Offered a freebie for month to evaluate his site.I have done nothing as yet.
Tom Winnifith -talked (should say mumbled)about long term investing.He was the most boring and quite frankly dont know what he was on(either sozzled or spaced out).Didnot rank him at all. I think their company must be in dire straits to say the least. (not hargreaves landsdowne)

The SKP pulmonary deal is approx 6 months overdue already. The sooner it happens, the sooner we can get a proper profit estimate for the next 2 years and get a fair value on the share price. I dont believe the broker upgrade would move the price as much (they havent before) hence was wondering if the deal news is being leaked. Be interesting to see what happens when the US opens
