A lot more sellers than buyers through the day and the offer price held up very well. Doesn't always mean a lot but as you say it looks promising for tomorrow. Took the precaution of buying 50% of what I originaly planned so I can average on a drop or buy more on an uptrend.
Good luck

looks like going to get back to 34p at this rate could it break that barrier ?

Not looking too bad this morning 'in the money' already. Just to balance things up (or down) Shell caught a few out today, including myself. As the saying goes you can't win all of them all of the time. Will keep trying though!

more sells than buys yet prices going up dont have level 2 any idea why ?

Have a look at Logica thread Chartist2004 Jan 9 03.43
good postings by Quento & Croc covers this subject.

Chart breakout. Look at moving averages! If price breaks 34 its blue sky!!!!!!!!

First new contract news for 2004: THUS chosen as preferred supplier of Various services to Virgin Group. Full details on THUS website.

Over 45 million shares traded in THUS this morning.
Something in the wind or is it lots of investor/traders joining in the new uptrend?
Any info anyone?

60 million plus shares traded, must be pretty near the top of the volume board today!
Dunskey, broken that 34p resistance now looking for that 'clear blue sky'

When to get out that is my question ?

Make it easy on yourself just remember you will never do exactly the right thing when trading shares If anyone knew the answer to your question we would all be millionares
A profit is a profit whatever

Things are looking up I feel. I'm in for the long haul. Although nothing is certain Thus's future is looking bright. I'm going back for more!

The chart dosen't lie. Unfortunately I'm out. Thought it might test 34p. Hoping to get backin loweeeeeeeeeeeer! Only a break thru 34 would be bad. Good luck longs.

A BUY trade for 1 million shares just gone through @ 37.43p Trade type entered as type 'BC'. Anyone help me in what type BC actually is?

Closed with a buy for 1,801,762 shares @ 37.35p possibly a late reported trade but what a buy, just tops my holding by a small margin + a bit.

Not opomistic then?

Thanks Fundamentalist,
Error corrected, it must have been the wine gums.
Will buy you a drink in the Tea Rooms.
cheers optomistic

Some more positive news - little reaction in the share price yet tho
