Tanfield Group is the new company name of Comeleon. As I understand it, Comoleon was getting into trouble so TAN (paerent company?) took over. Since this has happened the share price has dropped by 0.25p each day for the last week or so (on average) and are now around the 3p mark with very little activity.

Does anyone know much about this company or previously held stock in Comeleon? There is virtually no info out there other than on the company website.

cheers

Mike

Ooo yeah , should have been Curtis M. Faith.

Dil,

Downloaded chapter 2 of Way of the Turtle and read it quickly.

Reminded me of workshops I use to go to in the 70s and 80s run by Americans coming over to Britain with a lot of hype coming before them, well advertised and slickly operated. (I was lucky and not paying the fees for attending myself.) Often there were joint speakers who heaped adulation on one another. When one stepped back, the ideas and theories pushed were appealing until one questioned how long they had been practising those methods, the numbers and the results and why if they were so successful why werent they practising them rather than making money out of them.
Another thing peculiar to some of those meetings was the age of the ministers at the prayer meetings was that it was very young and that they could not have had the time to practice what they were preaching.

Having said that, one generally came away with some new way of thinking about a topic.

Without reading the entire book it seems to be based on swing trading within channels and throwing in daily range movements of day on longer period movements.

If, when you have read it and want to get rid of it, I will buy the book off you at second hand price. (As long as it is within normal daily price range).

The thing I liked about the TA for Dummies books range, although I found the style initially irritating, is that they remove the hype and are at my level, ie. a dummy.


The longer I play this game, I feel the most important thing of all besides the picking of stock, is stopping your losses and protecting you winnings and being disciplined enough not to overrule you system for "market reasons". I wish I could remember an implement the latter consistently.


Let us not pray and hope TAN does the works. It improved my portfolios a lot in the past and I hope so in the future.

Been in and out again this morning for another 6p gain.

I'm keeping the book for reference sorry Fred.

I hear EK has just gone short on TAN saying its all "green hype"

in this instance, he's definitely a twerp ...... TAN's vehicles actually work and are in demand and they have a full order book etc etc ...... this company is very different from CWP which is fairly borderline stuff and the company still unproven

It is going to cost EK big time now...TAN is just starting to shoot upwards...good luck to EK!

Hi Cynic,know about you buying TAN.Did you buy shares in PET-Petrel Resources Fatastic AGM.Apologies for o/t feel more to come PET over the next few months holding 2-5 years.

struggling to break resistance at 150p, which after all was support level for a while on the way down. In the absence of a further sell off in the next few trading days, i would imagine it will fly past 150p, of course the same in reverse is true, a swift drop to 130p could also be on the cards in the event of further bad news from the states...

having tested 150p nearly every day and hastily retreated, could it be significant that finally it has closed just above... tomorrow will tell...

hi lex .... no i didn't, but I see PET has rocketed away .... good luck on that one .... for myself, am still trying to invest but cautiously for the nonce which means, in particular, avoiding E&P mining/oil stocks

has held and indeed continued to gain as expected, will be interested to see its new trading range 150/165p perhaps? now have (thanks to the correction a core holding) but consider this a great share to trade in and out

looks as though 50dma will converge with resistance at approx 168p, think this is as far as it will go until the credit problems are truly forgotten...

I do not hold TAN. You guys may be interested to know that TAN in this weeks top ten buys! Fits with bullish chart and general positivity.Good luck to you all.regards lex:o)

Top Ten Retail Investor Buys & Sells for week ending 31 August 2007
31 August 2007

Angus Rigby, Chief Executive Officer, TD Waterhouse, commented: Investor interest has been high in resource stocks this week, with a number of TD Waterhouse customers taking the opportunity to increase exposure to the oil and gas sector by buying heavily into Petrel Resources. Share price in the Company is hitting annual highs of 148.50p, up over 219 per cent this year on last.

However, some of our other customers took this opportunity to take profits with Meridian Petroleum and Max Petroleum reaching number six and eight respectively on our sells list. Share price in Meridian which is due to announce its interim results next Thursday is up over 5 per cent on last week, possibly boosted by reports that commercial sales at its Orion 36 well in Michigan; USA are exceeding initial expectations. Meanwhile, Max Petroleums share price continues to slump further from last week, down over 10 per cent, a slide of almost 50 per cent month on month.

Elsewhere on the markets, investors sold off stock in solar cell producer Renesola, the Company had recently warned that its financial target for the year could be adversely impacted by a cut in its 2007 production outlook. Profits were surging early this year but August sees share prices down by almost 50 per cent on July, slipping 7 per cent this week. Despite this fall, share growth in the Company is still up by over 70 per cent on the year after stellar gains from production capacity expansion and a number of sales contracts wins.

4 Northern Rock

6 Standard Life
7 Tanfield Group
8 BHP Billiton PLC
9 Empyrean Energy

Is it just me or does the TAN chart look worryingly similar to the WNG one of a month or so back?

Hmmm.

no idea, but i guess a grapefruit looks something like an orange too!

could today see a close above 160p? seems to be struggling at each increment of 10p...

lively this afternoon in the absence of no rns...

possibly due to interims scheduled for 25th September !!

at long last, TAN has broken back quite decisively through a quite stubborn resistance at 160 = 50 dma ...... i wonder if it is too much to hope that the old high of 200 will soon be challenged>

Wait for interims tomorrow. Probably drop back for a day or two before advancing. Very little volume to recent rises.

I intend holding this longterm in SIPP. probably for 2-3 years. Longterm holding is a bit unusual for me generally, but in this case unless they do something "dumb" should be one of those companies with an ongoing uptrend.
