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

for once it looks as though we all agree, insofar as trading in either direction is fraught with danger.
Dow finished a tad above the psychological 11400 barrier aqnd there may be some follow through in F/E overnight ..... if so, a solid start in London looks to be on the cards

516p, so well past the 500 resistance. Wasn't confident it would go that far so sold yesterday. Damn! Small profit instead of medium profit.

Don't worry Harry a profit is a profit especially in this snakes and ladders market! Quite interesting the trading strategy where you buy a week prior to results, particularly when a share has been heavily sold off with a lot of stock on loan e.g. sola, rio , dnx which have rallied considerably possibly because of nervous shorters and a bit of ping pong sector rotation thrown in. The dollar seems to be key

I have got to admit that with this stock in particular I tend to trade the chart & forget about most other influences. I do watch what SOL is doing on the U.S. exchange as a guide, but as the latest figures are unaudited chinese accounting, best to watch the trend, imo.

I have to admit dual listed stocks do freak me out a bit because they can move 5-10% overnight and gap accordingly, life is stressful enough with just uk trading hours! B.P. rio for example.

Looks like SOLA is trying to form another 'W' (the previous W was completed over a much longer time-frame and actually exceeded the chart target by some distance). In this instance an initial target of 560p might be on the cards.

It's got a bit bogged down around the 500p level.
Don't currently hold, but looking forward to some kind of movement as this is normally a good trading stock.

Well Harry at the moment the SP has just made a higher high on recent performance (assuming this level is held). Not only that, it's through a pretty hefty resistance level of 500p (previous comment applies). I still think 560p may be on the cards.

Intraday it seems to push past the 500p level, but settles back at the close.
Wouldn't be comfortable long or short at the moment, especially on such thin volume.

Looks like a good call, pth. 520p & still climbing today.

given that london is about to close, a position (if you must) on ADRs would seem more sensible

Back down to 350/360p now?

Wouldn't be surprised Harry, looked for a while as if my target was on the cards but giving up 500p support is not good. At least a fall will cheer up Hyleo who was supremely confident of a big sell off, mind you that was two weeks ago :)

steer clear is my advice, as NY is rather dictating London ..... imo, Dow will recover quite significantly today(?) as peeps slowly wake up the fact that falling oil prices are really good news both for inflation and the economies in general

Down 10% so far and collapsing

if you look at the ADRs, that will tell you why

Good for the shorters. Hlyeo will be chuffed.
And good for us guys waiting to get back in for the upward cycle. 340p ?
What's an ADR, Guv?

ADRs are what are quoted in NY ... ticker there is SOL

Finally, the graph shows my way.

It's called a chart Doh!

And I guess if you wait long enough you might eventually be proven correct. Pity it went up 12-15% first though!
