Afternoon all,
Just logged. Haven't been trading today, too many things to do.
Don't seem to have missed much.
Will have a look around and see if anything looks
worth starting to build a position in.
Doubt I'll find anything, I'm not expecting a lot
of change today.(Famous last words)

LGEN looks interesting again.
Trouble is the daily chart looks like a staircase that's
still going down.
I'd prefer to see if it holds the 100p support level.
It dipped below it yesterday and came back up.
If it goes much below 100p I would imagine that there
are some stops there, that if triggered could precipitate
a steep decline.
Think I'll leave it and see what happens. Not happy about
taking new positions prior to the weekend in the current
geo-political situation.
Melnibone.

At least as the afternoon is progressing the screen is showing a
bit more 'green' and a little less 'red'...I suppose the odd splash
of 'blue' is asking too much!

Looks like I picked a good day not to trade.
Nothing much really moving.
I still reckon nobody wants to take the risk of a
new position.
People are sitting pretty after the last 7 months,
so why spoil it with a bad call in the current uncertainty?
Logging off now, see you all around.
