Some good news at last from this weeks Shares mag. Tim Freeborn revisits the company and altho no firm details are given about new deals he says they will be announced this quarter. I would think that this could be at the same time as the interim results are announced. I for one will be holding on cos they will fly sooner rather than later! ( 8.30% up today!)

Looks like we are on our way.

Not too risky at this price so I doubled my stake when it dipped the other day.

Unless they rise too quickly then I expect to hold on to these for a couple of years.

Agreed, altho i have some way to go to break even! Nice 1mil "T" trade i see just gone thru!! Happy days!!

Shares mag update this morning;

Plays Updates

Earthport (EPO) HOLD/BUY

Earthport hosted an investor meeting last week at its new City office. (a detailed report is on the MoneyAM bulletin board.) On Tuesday, the company announced a deal to handle micro-payments for Wanadoo, the rebadged Freeserve. Last week the company said four major contracts were 95% agreed: this seems to be the first. Earthport looks longer term than hoped when we tipped it at 2.62p on 8 April, but the writer remains happy to keep his 1.2 million shares at 2.5p.

Turning to my Newstand copy of Shares this morning ( the walk does me good). I read that there was a presentation to investors (by Earthport, see p.6 Col.3) in London last week - I wonder who went? No nominees please.
"Shares" goes on to say that there is a report on the MoneyAM Bulletin Board - - so where is it?
Although I'm a regular reader ( I have copies going back to close-on the launch ), I don't subscribe (thereby doing WHSmith out of a turn) as the Post here is so late. [Difficult to imagine but I guess I'm at the end of the Round]...so I buy my copy on the way to the train, or whatever. It's a routine that suits me and I can read the whole mag before Postie sets foot on the step.
Or whilst revising my thoughts for a City meet. S----so er, I mean I can't view the "Trader Bulletin" - although I pay more for my copies that several I could mention!
Anyone know where this "report" is?
Ho

hangon,

If you click on the previous button on this thread, you will see it posted further back.

Big trades right at the mid price I wonder what is going on?

i bought 40k at the mid price yesterday, for some reason, my broker was able to get me in @2.55

no i'm pretty sure the contract note that barclays sent me this morning was for 2.55, and a friend of mine bought 19,000 fo the same price, i've got no reason to lie about something like that...

o'neill
you need to make sure your checking the right day it was the 13th yesterday, there were loads of trades all morning at 2.55,

and before you come back and try and tell me that they were all sells....

they are recorded as sells but not all of them were, i know for a fact because i can see my trades, size and time and price and my friends at the time he bought his recorded as sells,

oneill

I have previously seen one of my buys reported at more than the price I paid.

So MrDavis could be correct.

my trade is there at the price i paid, 2.55, it's just that it shows up as a sell,

Guys,

This may help with the above - it is the disclaimer from our trades page:

It should be noted that all trade declarations made by the market do not include a buy or sell indicator and therefore we have to derive this information ourselves. The policy we have adopted is based on the mid price of the stock at the time of the declaration. For example, a trade declared at a price that is higher than the mid price at the time of declaration would be put in the buy column, a trade lower than the mid price would be put in the sell column. A trade which matches the mid price would be considered unknown. Please also note that the market can delay declaration of the trades for up to an hour in which case we will not make any assumptions and place that trade in the 'unknown' column. Please also note that many investors are able to buy and sell within the spread and also users of level 2 systems will actually be buying at the perceived sell price, these trades might therefore appear to be wrongly categorised.

Cheers Ian...

Now where have I seen that copy & paste before :-))

Apple,

It is one of my favourites :)

12 new posts to look at got me a wee bit excited and then I read them :-))

you may as well get rid if it is that inaccurate, just show trades but without buy or sell.
