Bioprogress (BPRG)     

scorpion - 13 Aug 2003 13:54

Bioprogress is a stock I have been in and out of quite a few times since it floated in May but not much mention here on the Investors' Room. Does anyone else follow this stock. I see it is up 1.5p today and a few good buyers seem to have appeared.

Can't really see a purchase yet, Dil. Still think it'll take time to get all the skeletons out - usually does.

However, there'll be time to go long eventually

Fred1new - 23 Jun 2005 10:58 - 2000 of 2372

What do the wise men say about the SP movement to-day. Smallish Volume B/s 54/45 larger sized buys than sells, but SP down by 3.5%. Is there a large protected sale going through. I would have read the recent announcement as fair and reasonable. But ?????

Dil - 26 Jun 2005 01:33 - 2001 of 2372

Still 22p target Fred ... sorry.

Snip - 26 Jun 2005 08:47 - 2002 of 2372

me singing to Dil:
`it ain`t necessarily so` de dum de dum

short term chart I know but it`s sometimes that kind of stock

macd showing positivity

Fred1new - 26 Jun 2005 10:00 - 2003 of 2372

Dil I don't think it will dive to 22p but 29-30p is possible, but I think from looking at the indicators and this miserable chart the sp will be up over the next few days and weeks.

Dil
