NOW I WISHED I BOUGHT SOME ON FRIDAY...!!!

I bought RTD shares at 13p thinking they would rise quickly to 15-20p in next 2 weeks. Now I do not think that will happen.
I think I will need to keep this stock for at least 3-6 months to see what happens and hoping it will reach 15-20p at least in that time.

Does anyone have any ideas of a sort of target price in around 3 to 6 months time?

Thanks

To be honest i think your initial feeling was right....the price will rise significantly in the next few weeks.
Why do you think your short term has now become a mid? what do you base this thought on?
Results are out in a few days time and they are reported to be very good, the mm have had there fun / profits over the last few days and the price is on the up again.
There are a lot of us out there holding this stock and i wouldnt have held on so long if they looked like needing another six months to come good.
Personal target is 16p by the results day.
Could be proved wrong, has happened before!

Lol why do we put ourselves through this?

Plantec-
Couldn't reist just bought Huge fresh batch of stock at 12.15p...I think punters will dive in late today and monday...

READ THIS:

Read SHARE MAGAZINE page 21 includes Positive write up in this week issue.

RETAIL DECISONS - Reporting on the same day, is also likely to please. It isued a bullish trading statment in July, saying it made 2.5million pre-goodwill.

REATIL DECISIONS SOFTWARE TOOLS GAURD AGAINST CREDIT CARD FRAUD. The online market is a new and growing market. Retail also has big exposure in Austrailia and it will benefit from stronger Aussie Dollar.

So thre u have..phewww.....!

Never had any doubts on this one , still dont, still flying a rather large flag here!!!

All in all, i dont think its going to turn into a bad week....Apart from HRR which has disapointed a bit the rest is going to plan...gxn, csv on the up, red stable and rtd will show the softies......roll on next week

Although i bought these for short term, i think i might hold onto to them for medium term atleast as i think they will rise quite a lot in future.

Just need to be patient on them. I think they will at least double in price and maybe even more within next 3-6 months.

still holding Jules?

i do, besides Bought fresh batch of rtd's on friday for 12.13p...

I trust they will reward, hence i hold for short..medium..and long term...

y.

thought youd buggered off to the bahanas jules, had a ten bagger you forget to share !!!!!
still holding here too, but have to say getting a bit impatient, still this week should see some fire lit under the kettle.
think the question was more of a sneer but apologies if it was more genuine

personally think mm's have been cashing very well on demand for stock, upto results day...

with o much sellinng done..expect it to go north from here...the demand is still there for RTD...target 15p... and later breaking towards the 15-20p...just my thoughts naturally...

A RTD Scenario tomorrrow could be...

7.20am - RTD Results are announced...Very Good.

8.00am - Stock opens 11.25 - 12.00 -0.5

8.10am - Weak Investers suddenly panic thinking price is going to drop...and start selling or closing out positions...

11.00am - MM's know results are very positive and have bought enough stock to satisfy demand, and taken out all weak investors...

11.10am- MM's raise price to 11.75-12.5- The rise begins for next 2 weeks...

4.00pm 13 -13.5p...

Wednesday.....TBC...

any thoughts..?

will the conversion of securities today maybe bring price down a little.
8 million plus new shares at 1p each.

Looking forward to some positive gains in the stock price to match.

Good luck

MM's are manipulating again... hold on to your hats!

Nitefly I was expecting that to happen...

Thankfully the results are excellent...

I dont see any reason for the price to drop, except to weed out any wannabe sellers, the surge in price will happen, but patience is going to be required from my part...

Sticking to my personal target of 15p followed by 15-20p.

could be good day to buy if sellers bring price down and spread stays same. only 2%at moment.

good morning all

Absolutely jules99, i was expecting the same!

I remember Corus and many others doing this, dropping on good news and then rising strongly a day or even a week or two after... only for everyone that sould out... well, to be caught out!

Luckely I managed to get in at 10.5p before the initial rise.

Best of luck to you all.
