I think I see - so the buyer said "I want 500k, and its got to be at 6.25p or less" so they MMs had to encourage sells while keeping the price below 6.25p.

The thing is, by doing this they have encouraged more buys than sells?

paulmasterson1 - 30 Jun 2005 17:09 - 1998 of 3776

mjr1234 hi,

T buys are big orders at a pre-agreed price, and at a discount to the current ask price, and the MM's usually take time to fill the orders, by dropping the price to get private investors to sell. When the buying continues, they don't raise the price, because they still need to buy from PI's at a price lower than the T trade pre-agreed price, until the order is filled, and then they raise the price.

Cheers,
PM

mjr1234 Hi,

You've got it :)

If the buying continues, the price still won't go up, until the order(s) is filled, so the MM's sometimes do B trades, buying from another broker to fill the order, but they will push the price down, to get the stock cheaper than the pre-agreed T price.

Cheers,
PM

Paul, Why don't you put your email in your profile?

Dil - 30 Jun 2005 23:17 - 2001 of 3776

Pauly ... why don't you stop talking b*llox ?

Dil - 30 Jun 2005 23:22 - 2002 of 3776

iPublic : "5m at end of March and operating postive EBITDA since then and profits forecast, July-Sept."

Is that why they issued a profits warning ?

Would you also like to explain to the ladies and gentleman in laymans terms exactly what "operating positive EBITDA" means compared to making a real profit ?

Doubt it.

jimmy b - 01 Jul 2005 01:01 - 2003 of 3776

Fact is PM1 got it right , i don't know him and i don't care for him ,if you put your money in 2 weeks ago and got back out you would have 50% in two weeks , not bad ,so stop slagging him off,, do it when he get's it badly wrong...Dil i usually respect your view .JB.

aldwickk - 01 Jul 2005 07:55 - 2004 of 3776

Paul also got it right with SEO.

aldwickk - 01 Jul 2005 07:59 - 2005 of 3776

Whats Dil got right? you would have made vastly more profit following Paul with SEO and YOO.

Dil - 01 Jul 2005 08:58 - 2006 of 3776

errr jimmy ... I've been telling everyone its a pile of crap from 20p. You could have made money from the dead cat bounce but this in no way proves Pauly right , his postings are b*llox.

Lets see if it gets back to 20p or goes bust.

aldwickk ... your a pratt for one thing.

aldwickk - 01 Jul 2005 09:08 - 2007 of 3776

Dil,

Am a right pratt but your a wrong one, just answer my post if you can.

jimmy b - 01 Jul 2005 09:22 - 2008 of 3776

I agree Dil , the bounce from 4p to 7.50p , he called right,,i wouldn't want to be in for anything further, just credit where credit is due..

SeamusH - 01 Jul 2005 09:23 - 2009 of 3776

What is your interest here Dil? Whether you agree with Paul's posts or not, he has stated his position and comes up with more than just "this share is great" or whatever the reverse of your "this share is b*llox" shout is.

You may well be right and this share isn't worth as much as some people would like us to believe.

I am however, very suspicious of people with undeclared positions who hang around bulletin boards when they've supposedly no interest in the share and hate it with a passion. Why waste your time when you could spend it positively researching other investment opportunities? It's not as if you're here to gain a better understanding of what this share is doing or if you should reinvest is it? You either like stirring things up and getting on peoples backs or are shorting this - which one is it?

Barry Harris - 01 Jul 2005 09:23 - 2010 of 3776

Dil, Where in th Yoos` last statement are there any figures to back up your claim " CRAP."
Until any proper figures are annouced its all guess work. The shares have been oversold if the following statement (16th Jun) is true:-

"Yoomedia plc today announces that, whilst significant progress has been made
since the acquisition of DITG at the end of 2004, and strong performances have
been achieved by a number of its business divisions, Yoomedia's Games & Gambling
division has experienced lower than expected profit growth, leading to a
revision of the forecast outcome for the full year. As a result the Directors
believe that the results for the year ending 31 December 2005 will be
significantly lower than the Directors had originally anticipated.

Overall, the Company achieved its initial objective of EBITDA break-even in
March this year and has continued to be EBITDA positive. The Directors believe
that the Company will be cash flow positive during the third quarter of this
financial year. Under the Company's banking arrangements, the Chairman has
agreed to replace a guarantee over an element of the facilities previously
provided by a former chairman and director of DITG."

IMO there is more upside to the sp than down to come

Dil - 01 Jul 2005 09:54 - 2011 of 3776

Barry , how many good companies do you know where the chairman has to guarantee part of the companies banking facilities ?

Being EBITDA positive is a lot different to being profitable.

aldwickk ... seek and yee shall find

SeamusH ... didn't you say you were leaving or have I got the wrong person ? Go back and read my posts , there are a lot more facts in them than you will find in some other peoples.

iPublic - 01 Jul 2005 11:10 - 2012 of 3776

Does anyone know why EVO have not produced an updated research note for YOO since the warning? Someone stated it was on the Reuters site, but I can't find it and none of the other resources like ft.com have been updated. It's not on the EVO site either!

It's very odd and leads me to speculate EVO are about to be given the sack, so they have not bothered. What do you chaps think?

Dil - 01 Jul 2005 11:14 - 2013 of 3776

I would be grateful if you would answer my question iPublic.

iPublic - 01 Jul 2005 11:21 - 2014 of 3776

Dil

Could but won't, you don't deserve it!

Dil - 01 Jul 2005 11:25 - 2015 of 3776

I agree but I already know the answer ... how about enlightening the wider audience you know , the ones your continually ramping to regarding being EBITDA positive ... do they not deserve to know ?

iPublic - 01 Jul 2005 11:31 - 2016 of 3776

Dil

The majority of posters know the difference between EBITDA positive and true profitabiltiy. You are assuming posters do not, which is insulting.

5M in cash at end of March and company will be profitable on a month by month basis, in the 3rd quarter, July to Sept.
