Pre-tax losses have also nearly halved from 6.4 mln to a loss of 3.4 mln on cost cutting. They have also had a successful fund raising.
Also chart indicators show that it may be time for the next leg upwards past recent resistance at 7.5p. and please remember you are responsible for the timing of your own buying and selling actions.

I'm stuck with these too - bought at 2.9p (think I was trying to unsuccesfully trade these and got caught with them rather than selling at a loss...oh for a pair of hindsight spectacles). Anyway no point selling - will end up with thruppence ha penny. Lots of stuffed bottom drawers with IDD in them I think.

I bought shares in this company because they are in a growth industry & with the present government talking about id cards could make this sector one of the biggest. I am not saying that IDD would get the contract, but they might get a Peace of the action, thats what shareholders have got to hope for.

I deal with the Halifax share dealing & they don't have stop loss tools, about two year ago the Halifax said they were talking about having stop loss tool but nothing to date. I must change my broker.

You need to change urgently, stop losses are an important investment tool, unless you can view your shares on permanent basis then authomatic stop losses are a way to protect your investment funds....

Sorry to be off topic. AdieH, I have had no problems with the Halifax in fact they are very good, but when you cant get to a computer i:e holidays, you need a stop loss as you rightly say. Any recommendations?

Mr Mole,
Whoever bought these at .75 has made a handsome profif if they have sold already,i still think they could turn this around,what do you think?
Cheers,
Everytime i look at these ASHTEAD comes to mind and look how there share price came back from the brink.

I'm a wee bit worried abouth their debt/cash flow. I've only a relatively small holding of these, but I'd lose a bundle if I sold now (worth just about 25% percent of my original investment). Decision is...shall I hold out for a return to the giddy heights of 2p+++ or sell now and invest what's left in something that has a better chance of doubling/trebling in the next year or so. Can't make my mind up. Wonder if there are any investors out there who bought at 10p and still holding?
