Goodness me that was a dullish day.
Highlights:
Alterian (LON:ALN) slipped a little but all I can do is wait for numbers to show how they are doing
Bellzone Mining (LON:BZM) got bought again. I hope the timing is good but we'll see. Over a 3-4 year view I have no concerns.
Dialight (LON:DIA) continues to consolidate over 400; long may it last
Education Development Intl (LON:EDD) continues to show strength and my buy was well timed. No, not luck, MACD and RSI told me the time could be right.
Medusa Mining (LON:MML) gave back some gain, not really surprising after such a nice rise.
Ram Investment Group (LON:RAM) continues to move upwards. Another one where numbers are required to support the price but with everything seemingly going well it's just a question of sitting tight and waiting to see if the contract momentum is maintained. Nasty spread makes it impossible to trade.
Shanta Gold (LON:SHG) got bought again and is now in profit. See, not mad at all!
Vatukoula Gold Mines (LON:VGM) moved down a smidgen, which is not a problem given recent strength.
Nothing much else moved!

Nothing like some decent stock specific vol. :)
The idea of my round-up is to build up a picture of what is bought when and why. Transparency is the name of the game. I have started in the middle because there's no other way to do it but if I continue then the idea is to provide value in allowing people to follow my ups and downs on an end-of-day basis.
I see two people have given a thumbs up your post but nevertheless, could I please ask that comments on my blogs relate to my content and discourage further posting of percentage based lists on them.
Many thanks.
Sure,
I just thought it was misleading of you to say "Nothing much else moved!" in what purports to be a Daily market round up.
If you'd said that your comments were specific to your own personal watch list/ portfolio, and what is bought when and why on it then I've no issues at all. But to head it as a "Daily round up" and then seemingly ignore some major markets moves whilst claiming it was a dull day with not much moving gives a false impression of what has been going on.
I'm not trying to be confrontational for the sake of it.
Fair comment. I will make it clear in future that I am doing the daily round up on my portfolio.
In reply to smarm, post #2
Hi, I am enjoying these roundups so thanks for taking the time to post them.
One thought is that it would be interesting to have some kind of running portfolio balance to see what the net effect of the various changes has been. I appreciate that you might not want to disclose your portfolio balance - fair enough! - but perhaps as an index at the bottom, where say today is 100, and then showing what % move you have seen versus the market. For example:
Portfolio now 105, up 2% on the day versus 3.4% (or -1.6%) for the market.
Or something like that. Just an idea.

betasurfer - sorry to take so long to respond; I am new to Stockopedia and struggling a little with the format. Yes, what you ask could be the next step but for now I'm just going to continue giving highlights.
