i was wondering if anyone out there had any strong views? this company appears to be delivering and has just turned EBITA positive after a great trading statement last week. seems like upside to +200p once results are out.

any comments or thoughts would be appreciated.

has to be an internet trade...what a rip off!

If thats the case then the guy has a seriously bad broker! Looks like others were paying 111. Oh well, bring on next week..... and a contract or two!

you said it, and soon it is results. LLU me up a contract for next week!

Excellent. I like the news of the analyst meeting the same day. Hopefully an upgrade on decent numbers or contract news. Perhaps something may get announced around the same time.

lets hope so. a flurry of newsflow please sir!

Did you get the post craig.

yes thx, sent one back...

Quiet day so far, a fall from the open and now back up. Roll on the 24th!

i know. great price move today. down 2.5 and a decent rally to here. wouldn't be surprised to see a positive close. MM moving up i am sure when being quoted. buyers still around...125p soon!

Bid jumped 3p on just a few trades so perhaps some delayed trades will show up later. At times like this I miss L2! The free trial was excellent.

i know what you mean. i am setting up a GNI account with L2 so i am closer to the action

I believe Etrade do a similar deal but not sure what the minimum is to open. I use s/bets instead of CFD's but no free L2 with them. I think IG markets do that as well with DMA access on CFD's.

i also use the spread guys but when actively trading i need to slice those spreads...

Agree re the spreads are somtimes garbage at Fins and IG on certain prices. But IG cover a lot of the smaller comps which I like, hardly use Fins these days. Looking at opening a D4F acc for trading the large comps.

great idea...i may do same and compare to GNI

Just had a quick look at GNI, seems you still have to pay 50 for the L2 access. From what I've read on D4F, they seem to offer the best spreads on FTSE shares and indices with a margin of 5% on bets.

the think is that i have negotiated a great dealing rate with GNI and they have waived the 50. it is really for the active trading and not for the likes of ESY. ie banks and ftse stuff. D4F is great, i just had a peek as well.

RNS out, a bit of shuffling of holdings I think. Seems like you got a good deal with GNI, forgot that costs can be negoitiated with CFD's.

So quiet today all round, light volume here.
