Recent newspaper reports of counter bid might have some merit. Lots of buys are a bit larger than usual uninformed punters.

I agree something is happening up another 2p. Hopefully we're getting away from the lows!

Going strongly this morning.......

Not complaing but preferred slow & steady. May now have to consider selling before my target is reached.

Pull back so Ive added a few. Not a lot...... just to get a round number.

Good move, gf. Or should I say, good timing!

LOL yep dead lucky Harry.

Does this qualify as a cup + possible handle in your chart in post #14?

Harry more of a ladle :-)

Cheers skinny. It always seems a little bit down to interpretation as 'cup & handle' can be a variety of shapes and over a number of time scales. Still, in this case when sp hits the 200 DMA I will be profit taking (probably a little before it hits!).

Nudging 90p. Nearly there!

Through it Harry. Hope you havent sold. Is some resistance at about 96p/97p.

Been a good week so far. Also is support in 92p area whith S/R equation , yep might consolidate for a while, but seems to be on a run.

Wondering if I should add again before my 120p SP target.

Skinny you genious .........Ladle chart pattern. Get a copyright on it.

Yep, sold at 92p. I bought at 79p and also will get the divi, so more than happy. Plus getting a little nervous that my profit is at risk. Plus I need the cash for IGG when it gets sub 420p! (hopefully).

Well done to those who bought this, If it can get past 96p got to hit 100p as a limit surely?

Well done harry. im holding. Holding for 120p if Mrs Merkel allows me to.

Well played Harry - my close order @95 now looking doubtful.

Are all you guys still hanging on or have you closed?
