.. Hi .. I live on the 'FAR3' thread, a 'house' full of chartists. We are regularly visited by 'non-chartists' wishing to know what the charts say with regards to certain stocks. Most of the stocks are priced under 100p, and having spent this year looking at thousands of charts, and providing my thoughts, I have noticed that at certain 'KEY LEVELS', I am repeatedly saying the same things. I have therefore identified a number of 'KEY LEVELS' under 100p, in order to produce a 'price guide', to which I have added my thoughts. Obviously this will not be as accurate as viewing an individual chart in detail, but for those unable to read charts, it will hopefully provide a good 'general guide'.

The lower the price of the stock, the greater effect each of these 'KEY LEVELS' will have upon price movement ... Always take guidance from the 'CLOSING' prices.

This 'price guide' is just my personal observations and thoughts, and to ascertain the accuracy of this guide, I would be grateful for some feedback from anyone that may use it .. feedback relating to accurate results, will assist others in deciding whether its worth using or not, and feedback pointing out any innacurate results, will allow amendments to be made .. Thankyou.



15.00p - CONSOLIDATION RANGE CROSSOVER POINT (strength 2)

For a rising price, this is quite a strong resistance level, which may need a period of consolidation to overcome. Its the crossover point into the next range above, which is centred around the 20p level, and as this next range stretches to 25p, it is unlikely to enter this range until it feels confident enough to continue its uptrend..



For a falling price from the range above, this is a very strong support range, that is unlikely to fail easily, and should provide a good opportunity for a bounce back up into the range above. It also acts as a good support level for failed attempts to break through into the range above, and from this support, there is a greater chance of a breakout being achieved.

12.50p - MAJOR KEY LEVEL MID PRICE (strength 4)

For a rising price, this is a major resistance level that will hold it close to the 10p centre of the range until it can build up sufficient strength to break through. When the breakout does occur, it may well be achieved in very sharp strong moves that could see the price propelled to the 15p ceiling of the range.



For a falling price, at these low levels, each of these key levels will act as strong support. It could find itself consolidating around the centre of this range for quite a while, in order to build up the power and strength, to break through the 12.50p MAJOR KEY LEVEL above. If this support fails, and it closes below the level, then this should be treated as a warning of possible further falls.

10.00p - CENTRE OF CONSOLIDATION RANGE (strength 3)

For a rising price, at these low levels, this is going to be a major psychological level to overcome, and it will act as strong resistance. It will probably need a good period of consolidation nearby in order to achieve a breakout, and when the breakout occurs, it could be completed with sharp strong moves that propels the price through the resistance level.



For a falling price, this level will provide support to help lift it back towards the 10p centre of the range, providing a tight consolidation range. Should the price fall through this level and close below, it is normally a warning sign of possibly falling on through to the 5p floor of the range, if not further. At these low levels, each 1p interval will provide support.

7.50p - lower mid point resistance/support level (strength 1)

For a rising price, it is important to rise above this level as soon as possible, because whilst below, there is more likelihood of falling through the floor of the range into the lower range centred around 10p. This level will often halt a strong breakout from the lower range, sending it back for confirmation that the 5p floor of this new range will provide support for it.



For a falling price at these low prices, this is a major support level, as it is the floor of the consolidation range centred around 10p, and its the crossover point to the lower basement range. If the price closes below this level, this should be treated as a strong warning signal, because the lower range stretches down to 0.0001p, then disappears !!

5.00p - CONSOLIDATION RANGE CROSSOVER POINT (strength 2)

For a rising price, this is a major resistance level, as its the crossover point into the next range above, which is centred around the 10p level. As this next range stretches to 15p, it is unlikely to enter this range until it feels confident enough, that its recovery is underway. This breakout is not usually achieved until a long period of consolidation has taken place, and when the breakout does occur, it is usually done with sharp strong moves as it releases the strength that has been built up.



For a falling price from a failed attempt to break through the 5p crossover point into the next range, this offers the last major support level, where it can rest and gather some more strength to attempt another breakout. It has a greater chance of achieving a breakout of the basement range from this level, than below. If the price has fallen down through the 5p level, then this offers the last major support level to try for a bounce back into the range above. At these very low levels, there is possibly support at every 0.5p interval.

2.50p - upper mid point resistance/support level (strength 1)

For a rising price, this is a major resistance level that will try and keep the price held in the basement. It is also a good level to consolidate and build up its strength to break through the 5p ceiling of the range, and into the upper range centred around 10p. Once the price starts rising above this level, then expect a breakout attempt, but at these very low levels, every 1p interval will act as a resistance level.
.. My cute 'baby photo' for the ladies !!

bigbobjoylove - 30 Aug 2004 15:13 - 10 of 211

reminds me of 3dm worldwide,breathtakin potential and a chance to get in early this time round.



By Brian O' Connor - Daily Mail

Geoff Russel is having a hard time smashing the front passenger window of an opel Vectra. He bashes it hard four times with a hammer before the glass breaks - but the window holds firm.
He beats it with his fists and kicks it full force. Finally he uses the hammer again and the window gives way.
Russel is the co-inventor of SupaGlass, a thich film bonded to a car window by Pentagon Protection. It has taken a full minute to break into the Vectra. Studies suggest most thieves give up if they cannot break the glass in seconds.
Russel is doing the violence in Pentagon's Acton plant in west London, where a massive new Rolls Royce, a heavyweight armoured Hammer and several sleek Mercedes are getting Protective treatment. Cars for James Bond film have been toughened up here, as (the talk goes) have various cars with royal owners.
When Russel and Peter Mukerjee pioneered Supaglass in 1990's, they intially focused on tinting car windows. But after a top BBC man and a dairy chief executive suffered car-jackings, they began working on security glass. A car break-in happens every 21 seconds in Britain.
Having Supaglass fitte to your car can cost 900 plus VAT - a pittance for VIPs but quite alot for the ordinary Motorist. The Big prize is to offer it as an option when you buy. Mercedes has already done so, BMW may follow.

Protecting Buildings is the next big opportunity. Eight months ago Pentagon bought Filmtek, which provides protective coating for windows and glass roofing.
No film can shut out a major bomb blast. But it can do much to lessen the terrible injuries caused by the shards of glass flying at 100 miles an hour.
Terror attacks across the globe have bought in huge customers - major banks, HSBC, Standard Chartered and Bank of America among them.
At the eurostar terminal in Waterloo, Pentagon is replacing and protecting the roof glass. At changi airport in singapore, it has just completed a 450,000 contract. It has four projects in china and has opened offices in Singapore and Bahrain.
At home, it is talking to Health and safety Authorities, the fire brigade and police. Chairman David Thomas says: "there are huge opportunties for us'.
Founded in 1992, Pentagon floated on AIM in April 2003 at 3p. The shares are now 6.37p valuing it at 8m.
Progress has been slow in the year to september last, it lost 270,000 on sales of 1.17m. In the half to march, it broke even on sales of 1.5m, half from Filmtek.
Thomas and Chief Executive Graham Bannerman, who joined with Filmtek, are confident that the pace is picking up. Filmtek alonehas won 750,000 orders in the last two months. Profit Margins are healthy.
If sales in the coming year hit 5m and profit reaches on a low tax charge, that would push earnings to 0.4p and justify the current share price. If all goes as Pentagon hopes, profit growth thereafter could be rapid.
Early-stage Companies offer some more shares to replenish their coffers. But Thomas says: 'I would be disappointed if we had to go for additional funding. Our aim is to grow organically.'
This is a small company and things could go wrong. But the team is enthusiastic and confident. Thomas says: 'A great deal of sweat has gone into this. Now we feel we are at the tipping point.' That goes for the shares too.

I don't know about others on here but when I hear ramper expressions such as 'mind-boggling', 'explosive' (even when used by non-rampers!) I immediately turn negative on a stock. Just my two cents worth.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Sound as though you are easily turned off and negative.ASC has been ramped like mad for good reasons.Simply mind boggling,explosive even up from 3p to 80p!

PPR listed on AIM @ 3p in April 2003. The company produce safety glass for cars and bought Filmtek latter part of 2003 which produces safety glass for other industries/buildings.Holding PPR from 4.5p a 70%+ profit to date therefore have more than a few cents worth to rub together.Recent contract announcements Thursday evening confirm further contract wins in the UK on top of those projects already completed.You add it up,projects completed and new wins since last results.Comes to ms.Aim is to have 20m turnover in five years. Company have clear strategy of international expansion.Huge growth potential.Airports,Train Stations,Banks in fact anything with glass.You name it and Pentagon can protect it.Sadly a world of terrorism,extremists,violence in one form or another.People and lives need protecting.Products are high quality and recognised endorsement in respect of vehicular glass.Worth researching and placing on your monitors is my two cents worth.Glib comments like yours do not impress me.Research is perhaps another word that turns you -ve as you clearly have not researched this company in my humble opinion.Very enthusiastic about the company and prospects.Advfn down or would copy and paste another poster where favourable comparisons made between Pentagon and Coca-Cola.Early stage and small cap.I'm bullish and have every reason to be.DYOR!

PENTAGON PROTECTION PLC
CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

Introduction and Financial Review

I am pleased to report that the period under review has been one of notable
progress for Pentagon Protection. The integration of Filmtek Ltd., Pentagon
Protection's first acquisition made in December 2003, following the April 2003
flotation on AIM, is progressing well. Our turnover has grown significantly and
we have made a robust recovery on profit with a stronger and fitter Company.
The Group's financial results from continuing operations for the six months to
31 March 2004 show turnover of #755,757, compared with #531,930 for the same
period last year.

Including the effects of the Filmtek acquisition, half-year turnover increased
to #1,464,819 against #1,165,914 for the whole of the year ended 30 September
2003. On profit, the Group significantly improved on last year's pre-tax losses
of #270,000 by breaking even for the period.

These results are broadly in line with management's expectations and strategy.
As indicated in my annual report for the year ended 30 September 2003, we
acquired Filmtek in order to underpin the Company's leadership in the delivery
of improved security and safety for glass of any kind, and this is reflected in
our figures and more broadly based business mix.

BUSINESS REVIEW

Filmtek Ltd.

Filmtek has, as anticipated, strengthened the Group's objective of becoming a
leading supplier of protective glass products across a broader client base and
adds substantial flat glass expertise to the Company.

Filmtek is in the process of undertaking several major projects both
domestically and internationally, especially in the Middle East. The Company's
clients include a number of global banks, international business houses and
government departments.

Pentagon Glass Tech

Pentagon Glass Tech Ltd., the original core of business of the Group which went
public on AIM, has been managing the market downturn in window tinting resulting
from recent legislation adjustments which have slowed demand for normal vehicle
tints to the driver and forward passenger windows. Significantly, your Company
has taken the opportunity to promote its proprietary SupaGlass higher protection
laminate across a number of existing and newly developed client opportunities.
We are actively engaged with the Department for Transport to promote our
product's safety and security aspects and, in addition, your Directors have
been strengthening relationships and business with the Fire Brigade, the
Metropolitan Police, the Ambulance Service and the Ministry of Defence.

Pentagon's progress with Original Equipment Manufacturers in the automotive
sector is also encouraging. We have secured business from Honda, Citroen, and
Wrightbus, and are due to commence projects with Volkswagen. Pentagon has become
the recommended supplier for all London-area Mercedes dealers, a first for a
company in our sector.

Pentagon Pro-Marker

As you know, your Company has been working on the development of a product that
provides a technically improved glass-etched security mark for use by glass and
glazing industries in the face of new legislation. This new legislation (FENSA),
driven by the UK's Glass & Glazing Federation, dictates that all new building
glass must be marked or etched with the confirmation of its compliance with
building regulations.

Pentagon has commenced production of the first batch of etching units. In the
meantime, we have conducted very successful tests with these units in one of the
world's largest glazing manufacturers, Pilkington. We look forward to being
able to report progress on this exciting project in the future.

Outlook

It is evident that the steps taken by your Board to strengthen both critical
mass and senior management these last few months have resulted in a
significantly improved stronger business.

In our two lead companies, Pentagon Glass Tech and Filmtek, we have clear
demonstration of product appeal both for SupaGlass and for our other protection
technologies. The need for protection across glass of all types continues to
grow, driven by urban criminal violence and terrorism. We are investing too in
the expansion of our presence to the two potentially high growth territories of
the Middle East and Far East.

We have also seen an improvement in the confidence of our client companies to
increase levels of business with us, resulting from further improvements and
performance accreditation of our technologies and from our client service
levels.

Pentagon Protection is well placed to take advantage of market opportunities at
home and overseas for both its Filmtek and Pentagon Glass Tech subsidiaries.

We look forward to continued progress across all areas of the business.
