Read the latest interims.......just make sure that you are sitting down.

Interesting cyners.

You do know that 3 days of important US data is comimg up weds?.

Will be back in if that goes Jack the Harry.

Wheres that big bloater, kitos?.

Slats, sit down and give your brain a rest. You are a bore.

Holding up well today.

Small rise today is not really indicative of overall strength or indeed weakness in SOLA's SP, only 80k shares traded and not much activity on the book. SP still in a downtrend and needs to rise somewhat to break out of that trend, no indication it's showing much inclination to do so. IMHO of course

Are you so H as in IMHO? Self praise is ....

Go back to what you do best Hyleo.....................losing money................or continually asking for help................... or jumping on the bandwagon after it's ground to a halt.........................you don't have any spare capacity to wind me up. LoL

NRK, WOS, BDEV and SEG are doing very nicely 4 me. Thank u

piss off Peter (lol!)

market is now doing what i expected it to, even first thing this morning ...... am contemplating doubling my short here .... have already (just) moderately shorted both Dow and FTSE

Richard :)

Gutsy move Richard, US data at 1500

hi peter .... i think the only data due is Biz Confidence which i can't really see having a great impact .... being historic, it must surely be horrid anyway

anyway, said i was only contemplating doubling short on SOLA!

Consumer confidence Richard - Quite significant on the FX markets

Think SOLA is still a short btw

not called Dow correctly at the mo ..... let's see what happens next!

not a lot!

Following weaker cons conf. my money's on 2 more US cuts of 25bp in Dec and Jan. Hence the Dow holding up and gaining.

Dow ended up with the rally ive been expecting.

Hope you havent been too badly burnt cynic.

burnt on rise in Dow ..... i don't think so!!!!! ..... not sure where i left you on this, but was ultimately long both Dow and FTSE and made the bank manager very happy indeed ..... both now closed.

which brings me to SOLA
the indices are too difficult to read at the moment, and while my inclination is to think there will be a correction following the headlong recovery, the indications are unclear.
howver, SOLA seems totally disinclined to move upwards and is now (i think) building up quite a resistance at the current 350/360 level .... with that in mind, i decided to double up my short this morning, as that looks a pretty short odds bet.

in fact, while checking a figure just now, it seems others are now selling too with sp just falling below 340 ...... if no rally, then 300 is certainly next stop


Peter - your invaluable input please!

Richard, I haven't changed my opinion re the short scenario. Since March the SP remains in a downtrend and recently broke down through the latest bounce. 300p certainly appears to be a realistic goal, keep an eye on that uptrend line which if broken may signal a bullish reversal. Personally I would place a stop somewhere in the vicinity of that line.

if you mean the lower line, then fuilly concur - i.e. about 375 i should guess ..... i'll post one of my simplistic charts in a mo, but am sure it concurs in this instance

Yep, that's the badger :)
