ASOS have dropped quite significantly in the past week for no particular reason and I view this as the perfect opportunity to invest as I can see them bouncing right back up to the 5.50p mark in the next 2-3 weeks. STRONG BUY!!

Not a good candel to have today when shorting hence I closed my position and took a profit. Lets hope we're not about to test highs again!

Testing resistance yet again this morning.

Resistance is futile!

I used to have a thing about 7 of 9..!

I'd be worried if you didn't! :-)

Bet she doesn't look like that anymore...

Still not bad for 46.

Not so hot anymore... :-(

You dogs!!! lol.

Inverted hammer today.... Maybe a short signal coming tomorrow..

it'll be interesting to see how the market reacts to those numbers
i may well be wrong, but they don't look as strong as usual, and retail gross margin down c.30bps on prior year may get a dull reception

Great numbers , still strong despite heavy investments on the agenda, will pay off later and 1bil sales already made, amazing.happy to hold.

and i'm even more glad that i'm running a small short, albeit that i did it far too early and at too low a price ..... but now juicy juicy juicy!

as i shall be out for much of the day, i have posted a stop, but even if that is hit, there'll still be a juicy, juicy, juicy £10.25 per share profit

sell that dingy tomasz ..... on second thoughts, you'ld better hang on to it to use as a lifeboat!

stop hit, so i'm out with big big big smile
