Think it's a couple of months away so this rise may continue for some time. i am adding now on any pull back.
Talk of the company actually purchasing their own stock for cancellation !! Now if that is confirmed hold onto your hats.

Hi Moneyman, the ECK, broker comment you posted 168 of 182 is very positive IMO and wonder if this has something to do with the SP rising 11.86% on the day.
Interestingly, the broker comment does not seem to mention or include in any of its forecasts about the ITV revenue making contract Eckoh won that commenced on 1st March 04 and whereby since then the SP has consistently been falling to the low of yesterday @ 7.5p. Perhaps also the news today of ITV now owning 75% of GMTV through acquiring SMG's 25% for 31mln and as a result will this give a significant boost to the ITV revenue stream ECK now has from this contract? The remaining 25% of GMTV is owned by The Walt Disney Company and ITV is now obliged to offer Walt Disney the same terms for its stake.
Looks even more positive for ECK

Morning leggins. Yes this was very oversold and no factor of the note had been taken into account. Continuing it's upward momentum today which is surely a good sign.

takeover bid?
just had a look at the last set of Accounts.....
company has 10m cash
tax losses of 100m - say 30m to someone who can use the losses
last EVBG report projecting 1.9m PTP
say 20x on 1.9m = 38m
38m+10m+30m = 78m
shares on issue 271m
value per share - 29p
say a 30% bid discount - 20p per share!!!
could be worth a serious punt!

interesting press release...sounds like a nice little earner!
'I'm a telco', says Eckoh 'Get me into here!'

There is a 'real need' for more collaboration between the telecoms and television industries if interactive TV is to realise its full potential.
So says Paul Parry, managing director of Eckoh Technologies' Communications division, speaking at the 6th Interactive TV Show in Barcelona today. The message comes as Eckoh prepares to deliver interactive voting services and viewing software to ITV's 'I'm a Celebrity Get me out of Here!' next month.
"Telecoms and television projects need to share a vision for the future," he says. "Conceptual collaborations generate robust formats that, in turn, generate real ratings success, enhance revenue streams - and improve broadcast intelligence."
Eckoh will provide premium rate Interactive Voice Recognition (IVR) vote lines for 'I'm a Celebrity', including - for the first time - real-time phone, red button, SMS and web statistic viewing using Eckoh's VISTA software.
"Interactivity is central to the 'I'm a Celebrity' format," continues Paul.
"The key is entertaining voting opportunities that enhance rather than interfere with the audience experience - how many other programmes can offer that range of interaction and involvement?"
Both Parry's speech and the 'I'm a Celebrity' deal follow a series of interactive collaborations with ITV following the announcement that Eckoh is preferred supplier for the channel's telephony services. It also comes hard on the heels of the launch of VISTA, Eckoh's own web-based software package that allows broadcasters to track viewer phone, red button and web votes in real time.
"We are on the cusp of a revolution in television - and in telecoms," says Paul. "There is huge potential to capitalise on the great work that has already been done to develop enhanced products and services in both market sectors."
The 6th Annual Interactive TV Conference is one of several industry events that Eckoh has been involved with in the last few weeks, including the Edinburgh TV Festival, the Future of Music TV Conference and the Broadcast Commissioning Conference.
Note to Editors: The 6th Interactive TV Conference took place on 14 October 2004 in Barcelona, Spain.
Eckoh Technologies plc designs, builds, hosts and manages speech solutions for large corporations and organisations using ASR (Advanced Speech Recognition) and IVR (Interactive Voice Response) technologies. It is a leading UK service provider and infrastructure owner/operator, and intends to exploit the anticipated growth in demand for Speech Solutions across Europe.

I'm tempted to top up, but the price keeps moving against me. Never mind, I expect the weekend press will be tipping this one.

looks like 9.375p mid price is a significant closing price...no negative reaction at 9.25p today so hopefully this will now become the new support and the next resistance level is 11.7p...
Investtech from this morning said:-
Has broken through the ceiling of a falling trend channel. This indicates a slower falling rate initially, or the start of a more horizontal development. The stock is approaching the resistance at p 9.25, which may give a negative reaction.

Yep, the chart looks pretty good, 10p should be easily broken by the end of the week as fundamentals support the buying, especially the level of cash to market cap!

smell something fishy going on here!
just tried to buy 100,000 shares online and was unable to do so....best my broker could offer was 50,000 @ full ask - 8.75p
when I asked for a quote to sell 250,000 shares I was offered 8.625p
think the MMs have dropped the mid to accommodate a 'big boy' who wants to pay well under 9p for a large chunk of ECK
time to accummulate again I think...
Mack 1705

100,000 buy at full ask(8.75p) and we get a tick up...suggests the MMs are not overly keen to release a large amount of stock at below 9p
