Interim results tomorrow. 500p breached early doors, toss up, heads profit taking, tails pump up the volume and go higher. Not overbought yet on RSI, MACD looks promising. Fingers crossed.

Breakout.

the blast , nice .

Love this share :0)

Even this stock in this environment is not safe, but i will b first in the que to top up on any weakness.

On watch list to add.

Every year throughout this Bull Market stock has rallied at some point in the final quarter and gone on to print an all time high. (Full year results 02/12/15)

Will this year be any different? Trend is your friend till it isn't.

See flavour of the month Canaccord have stuck their oar in here as well (no sense of humour). Probably change their mind within a week who knows? :0)

Wee punt long @ 544p on the spreads, tight stop.
