Why are we again at 10.5p bid?

It doesn't add up...

Good Results + Strong buying pre results + Christmas online buying soon = Price drop

Then again some companies that have debt for equity hanging in the balance, poor results and bankruptcy around the corner and they go up!

Why sell now at a loss?

Wont that be a kick in the teeth when we see 13.5p 14p again!

Best of luck all.

D, This chart stuff appears to be gobbledegook but there are certain formations which seem to appear again and again where the pull/push of prices caused by market psychology moves in almost predictable waves.

The head and shoulders and inverse head and shoulders are favourites of the technical analysts.

Now that the inverse head and shoulders has been fully formed at the bottom of the price band, the next step is up and up to where they came from. If all goes to plan (speaking chartwise) we're looking at 1 by the end of the year and knocking on for 2 by the end of next.

I think this is a bit over-ambitious and I've set my target for this year at 60p, but can see 1+ next year all going well.

Re: the buys and sells - I got them from another site (there seems to be a slight variation between all sites in recording buys and sells oddly enough).

with the results less than a month away, Why the drop?

Tokyo - RTD is up today 7.79%.

The rise of a share is never all on the positive side. There will be many drops along the way to earning serious money, however if you have the resolve and courage to ride out the dips you'll emerge with a very handsome profit in 1-2 years time.

well said OG

I'm holding these this year to see where they get to and then review. Can see these going to about 1 by end of year. The chart is like a role reversal from the bad old days, just hope they rise as much as they fell

Now wouldn't that be somting, scotinvestor, back up to where they came from!!!!!!!!!!!! I'd love to pay the tax on that :-)) D>

Overgrowth - thanks for the boost, i do need to sell some shares at the end of March (any speculation on a possible price, before and after the results are posted?), but I will be holding about 80% of my shares in RTD for the next year or two, just to see where this company is going, one pound a share sounds great, one pound fifty would be fantastic, well here is to hoping!!!!

Good luck to all

I have been watching this share 5 years now. I am starting to go grey, not with worry though...things have taken a turning point.

This was well oversold. The MMs have tried flushing out a few sellers by pushing sub 20p yesterday which I watched with interest. There is support at 20p and it id steady. A fall below this was not sustained. With the imminent results and positive feedback this from 20p this share will go to 28p before it goes to 20p.

Bought back into this share quite recently.... Large quantity.
I would certainly like to see it at your price target Justmoney.
Best of luck to all holders.

RETAIL DECISIONS PLC

NOTICE OF PRELIMINARY RESULTS

Retail Decisions PLC will announce its preliminary results for the year ended 31
December 2003 on Tuesday, 2nd March 2004.

16th February 2004

Are we thinking good or great here?

This has sparked some buying & pushed up the price.

A simple date announcement attracts attention.

From the figures that are available another 25% mark up on 22p is not unreasonable.

the 497850 sale shown was actually done an hour ealier at 12.53. These money makers are a real slippery lot.

Washlander..........
Are you suggesting that the trade was actually a Buy.
I know that with some of my other stocks, I've had my buy reported later as a sell.
You comments welcome ...... and good luck to all holders.
Regards

It would appear that way. On my level 2 it showed up as a late trade by an hour which was a buy price at the time

Greetings to all holders......
Closes at it's previous high.
I know we're all looking for a decisive breakthrough.
Javid....... would love to hear your views on any patterns between now
and ResulTs Day.

Apple - not just a simple date announcent.

Various sages were guessing at the date being more like 14th March. To announce results this early, there must be plenty of good news in there.

I have been looking at the five year chart for RTD and NSB and if you ignore that great big blip when the tech boom took place the price of RTD then was about a pound.

I would imagine they are in a better position now than then so hopefully should over the next couple of years see a retrace back to those levels.

Am I missing something or RTD now turning over more and making more profit than pre tech boom?

As I type it is up to 23.25 bid, the build up to March 2nd is going to be very interesting. What will also be interesting is whether people will hold after the results or sell for the profit. Any thoughts?

There will be a lot of profit taking. But by then there will be known resitance points. Afterall it has tested the 23-24 range before. The next resistance point up will be 25. At least until the results are either nearly due or when they do become known. Either way a lot of people will lighten their holdings. I think to sell all would be extremely shortsighted, but what the heck do I know. lol
