AMGO looking good today as well - +14.65% - I never got round to taking a position again so may have missed the riverboat.
Hhmm, i've been waiting for the drop back to the 13s or less.
Still time.
Hi Chris
Beginning to think we've missed the boat here.I can still get in lower (just) than I sold but but but...
Sailing back to port to pick up the late arriving passengers?
If I miss out, so be it. It's still a risky proposition.

Green stocks looking a bit better today. Even Nikola is in the positive.

I did consider chucking more money at BLNK, BEEM, Quantum and also to reduce my holding in Nvidia. Nvidia is one of my winners and maybe it's a bit soon to be taking money off the table.

Increased my TED stake by 20% at 150p should be good support level here, looking at it from a previous resistance perspective.

Stalking you but at 152.2p
Doubled to 1500 shares

that was part of my AMGO fund but still waiting for the Amigo ship to dock to pick up late passengers.

All this talk of Amigo and ships reminded me that the old Radio Caroline ship was the Mi Amigo and I had a really warm feeling.
Then realised it sank in a storm.

Keeping an eye on LAC as a future gamble.
Hi Mr O. What are you thoughts on ABML at the mo? It's been totally battered, but it's not worrying me too much right now. What will worry me is if they don't get planning approved on May 12th. Then we'll be properly f-cuked.
Put too much in already, don't want to take the loss, so will just stick it out now.
Ah crap another 10% down today so far. $1.20 now. Fingers crossed for May 12th then.

Anyone any thoughts on:

Active Energy Group (AEG) who try to persuade coal fired power station owners to go to bio mass

and

Remote Monitor Systems (RMS) who are mainly an engineering / tech company it would seem but have got mixed up with CV19 masks.

I've been in both for a while, AEG has great potential but doesn't seem to be making progress, RMS just seem to be a money pit going nowhere with a mask that won't be a long term prospect (hopefully). No idea about the rest of their business.

I am hoping for a RNS fuelled P&D on RMS to allow me to exit. Currently have the finger on TED!

Anyone else got ICON - Iconic Labs.

I bought 1 million shares as a complete punt after a friend suggested it. I have done no research, but gone up 63.5% today.

Current share price is 0.013p, in 2018 they were above 10p.

That could be quite an unlikely recovery, but nice to dream!
I tried to buy ICON yesterday, but the market order on T212 didn't fill. Bunch of front bottoms. I understand the no fees thing and netting off clients orders / positions before going to the market, but it's put me right off them. The HL fees sting a bit, but at least your get instant quotes (or failure to match).

It took 2 days for my ICON purchase to go through on 212. I have a friend who bought on HL and he said it took a long time too. On the plus side, I did a market price buy and by the time it went through the price had dropped - could have gone the other way though!

I'm in RMS and went minus 25% when the old BoD issued a load of new shares to raise funds. Then I went plus 50% but held as I was greedy and they haven't even started selling masks yet.

Currently at minus 13.58% and losing patience with the current BoD lack of communications. Other projects are nano technology in farming and windfarm testing. For me the masks are the biggie as even post Covid restrictions there will be a market for them abroad and maybe some in the UK. Missed the boat for a big Covid related win though IMHO.

For fun but also interested..

Starting from scratch. If you had no stocks today and couldn’t hold anymore than 3, what would you buy for LTH’s?

I agree. T212 has definitely got far worse for SETSqx stuff over the last month or two. They were never brilliant but usually got traded within the next two auctions or so, now it can be days which is ridiculously bad. That said T212 perform fine for standard stuff like TED, RR etc where their trades are virtually instantaneous and comparing their prices with HL they are as good imo. So I tend to use T212 for the boring stuff but any penny share SETSqx stuff I use HL.

Mine would maybe be something like EZJ, Shopify, and CCIV.

I believe in EZJ coming back, and possibly more. Shopify I think will only get stronger. CCIV, probably a gamble but I quite like Lucid.

Now I think about it it’s quite hard to answer hehe

Disclaimer: Phooey currently holds CCIV. At a loss.

held L&G since before CV19, dropped significantly then and have been climbing back up ever snce. Seem solid, good divi, I quite like Nigel Wilson when I've seen him interviewed. Recently put some ISA money into a couple of L&G funds. Good LTH I'd say but I'm no expert. (DYOR as they say).

Tesco are in a very tight market, whilst the biggest of the supermarket chains they have huge stores to maintain. They keep having to price match Aldi etc.
I held TSCO many years ago, but dropped them and haven't really looked since. Would suggest a Steady Eddie, interested to hear others views

My 2 biggest individual shares are still 4d and itx.

4d is not progressing as quickly as I hoped, but having said that I always knew it was at least a 2-3 year hold.

Itx is my favourite currently. Partly because I'm now over 130% up, but becsuse I think there is much more to come! Basically no debt, a good product line, patents, a growing industry being helped along by regulation and a low mcap.

Still got brh and pow as my risky gambles.
