Hence all the small PI buys you mentioned. Shorters closing.

BUT dont forget mining sector looks to be recovering in last couple of weeks so this MAY be a catalyst here for recovery.

See chart thread for others that look in good nick.

KAZ Daily chart.......

Support at 220p. Spread small enough to day trade here???.

Daily High 231.82.

you can trade it if you like, though it is now much more risky than it was first thing when i jumped in (where angels fear to tread)

i certainly don't much fancy KAZ as a portfolio stock, but then for hard commodities, i have long favoured the likes of BLT and RIO

What alerted you??

Very astute. Mind you seem to like miners.

my name's not jimmy!

hey Jimmy.

You'v lost me ?

that looks like the end of that excitement, and indeed the foolhardy may now choose to go short rather than long

as has been the case all morning, sellers book far heavier than buyers
with that in mind, it is getting ever more tempting to dabble short

now modestly short at 219.2

Jimmy Saville.

oh i get it (very slow) ,i thought cynic was implying i bought lots of mining stocks ,i'll have to have another sleep and wake back up .

he he.

pretty smiley on this one ..... successful long banked earlier and now a similar size short showing a profit of +10.5 ..... i'll prob encash that one tomorrow

not selling (buying back) yet, that's for sure :-)

shame i only took diddy positions in both directions, but really shouldn't grizzle
very many thanks to rek!

out at 204.1
there's probably more to go for judging by the order books, but with my small holding, not really worth gunning for
