Bottom chart 'fast stochastic'

Financial co's this size usually manage some sort of recovery - they have already done a lot of the ground work - so it should just be a matter of time if they are going to come good!

hyphan,
Don't you think that should be 'Before they come good'

OH DEAR/// I hope it not just dreams///after ALL I HAVE PUT MONEY ON THIS ONE////also I thought the figures look alright ///

brisltelad, I am also well into RSA but apart from the reality of the figs, which I am not unhappy with, I still like to have my dream. I think I could well describe myself as travelling hopefully :-)

opto - I'd like to have said WHEN but it is best to say IF or maybe IT IS LIKELY - I previously heavily invested in MONI and TWT and so I've learned the hard way to not be categorical - but I do think RSA will come good in time.

Increase in activity today. Nice to see.

Yes namreh, nice to see the price rise on a good trading volume.

A lot of punters in 77-78p in the last 2 weeks before fall back, and SP hasn't languished in 72-75p range as in last few months.Range 78-82p before Xmas break with spiking to 80-85p to trade in and out (IMHO). Watch this space.

If we breake out of the 80p resistance we might see the price go up rapidly.goal.

Digits crossed.

Have noticed tends to trend up in months to beginning of Dec and then fall back until Mar. Historical nonsense, no doubt.

Bit of a lacklustre week due to the ongoing US litigation and dull markets. C'est la vie!

I'm with Goal on this one. Break 80p and we could then see some good movement.

May be some time until the litigation appeals re Twin Towers is resolved. Unless bid approach materialises or market upturn will range trade up to 78p in MHO. Hope I am wrong though!

THERE IS AN ACTIVE THREAD RUNNING IN "TRADERS ROOM" under the title of "RSA VERY ACTIVE OVER THE LAST WEEK "

Ok I was wrong about my posting, 1 before christmas, it will have to wait to the new year.I will hold. Merry christmas every one.goal.

Not Christmas yet goal, but you are probably correct we will have to wait for the new year.
All the best to all,
opto

Optomistic & gang, HAPPY NEW YEAR & a prosperous one too.goal.

HNY to you goal, let's hope that this year is going to be a little more kind to us than last. If you are a chartist you will have noted that 'TA' is looking more positive than it has done for some while, so let's hope we don't have to wait too long for that 1
