in your view, is the week going to be weak, hold steady or some gains to be made??
Please tell Sir, by the way it's Bristol way...:))

Back to 36 off a double bottom??

Would be good to see that theory (T/A) work. ENRC chart also doing the same.

BB - volatile is i think the most likely, and remain that way for a little while ..... i go down to b-on-a quite regularly and actually need to get my act together to take a bicycle frame down to bristol for repairs - so you could s=twist my arm if you were desperate


PTH - would like to think so, and have just topped up modestly, but 3300 needs a decisive break before next upward surge

i see the gold price has been back in the 1100's and rio ticked up above 33 are we going to see 34's ????

how the f* do you expect me to know????
i'll be more interested at this juncture to see if it can hold above 3300

Cynic....chill, only asking the sodding question.....take another vallium. lol

so you got the f'ing answer - hoho!

come on cynic should be dancing on your dictionary.....broken through 33

i know .... almost posted here earlier to that effect, for your benefit.
very happy that i bought a few more yesterday

Better do another dictionary dance cyners, might see 34+ today if we're lucky..

it's already (been) there

RIO goes ex-divi on 24th feb '10.
