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

Did you say you went long on this Cynic?

yes, but cut

Hmm - fallen below 400p: may after all retrench to 360p?

or back to 220p!

but the stock cannot be shorted either in london or ny

Well that ain't gonna please hlyeo then!

I have already shorted from 500p. Great day!

did you really? ...... not sure how as market has been closed for shorting for a lot longer than just today

see post 2628

you did indeed .... and shame i did not take my own advice in the post 2629!

never mind, next time, cynic. I am aiming for 280p.

Strewth! You had a nervous time the 2nd half of august then! But came good.

don't get over-greedy ... there is so much stock borrowed (hence inability to short for last 7/10 days) that a heavy bear squeeze at some point is inevitable

I suppose that depends on wether your broker physicaly covers in the market.

Rensburg are open to shorts on the stock but daily carry over is more expensive than other SBs.

Dont forget cyners blind shorting goes on with sola aswell. Not sure if the Berlin market takes part in this anymore.

Neither short nor long on anything at the moment just waiting for direction.

Figure for latest positon here...

Over 27% on loan. Would be nice to get in on the trap unwinding as the SP shoots up.

That is a high %age. Elder's days to cover ratio measures the number of shares on loan that can easily be traded with the average daily volume so if there are a million shares on loan and the average daily volume is 100,000 it will take 10 days for those shares to get processed. Areading of 10 is safe but anything over is at risk of panic rally.

372p...cross my fingers

Falc, are you refering to Dr Elder here?. Which book please?.

The new one??.

Yes gold, sell and sell short. He refers to yahoo which usually gives short interest ratio and days to cover on key statistics but not it seems for sola in terms of crowded exits

Ive got the 'come into my trading room' so I will add this one.

many thanks.

It's only come out recently and you can also buy a workbook, about 30.
