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.

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

mornin all........;-))))

overgrowth

I hope that you are right.

The date is just over a week earlier than last year but I can't really see why this should be taken as a positive indicator.

There must be more to it than that ie. some real info must have leaked out.

I agree with Washlander......
For the rest of the year I think we're gonna see the share price rise.
But there are going to be bouts of profit taking along the way.
Remember where the share price has come from (3p in less a year).
I do think that those levels are difficult to predict.
I have seen paper profits evapourate very quickly....... so if you're
happy with yours.....Bank it.
This is not intended as advice...I'm not regulated by FSA etc.etc.
Good luck to all RTD holders.

Armadev,

Probably best to add a caveat - to make sure that you don't keep looking at the share price once you've sold, unless you're happy to buy in again at the higher prices.

There's nothing worse than banking your profit and watching the price rise 3x again - that's speaking from first hand experience with LCI.

Apple,

At the very least, an early date confirms that there is no hidden bad news - this always causes delays (because it takes longer to "massage" the figures).

OG

It's gone really quiet on this thread.
We had lots of great banter about this stock when it was trading between
15/20pence.
Would love to hear comments/views from all you traders/holders etc.
Thanks in anticipation.
Regards

We are waiting in "anticipation" of the earnings statement. lol
