sorry to read the discourses on PDN
they are so incidental to the main game that it's a shame ill will resulted
we should not feel compelled to reveal and prove our actual trades on this forum
if there is a desire to dispute "facts" at a personal level, the dispute should remain between the parties via email or another means - not here
i hope the light of another day sheds clarity and mosaic's worthy contributions to this and other threads is maintained
pax vobiscum

Bro Hilarius - your offer is noted - thank you. While I feel that I should not have to prove anything, I will attend to the matter tonight when I get home. I am currently at work, and as you know, I am restricted to a hospital PC from here in the OT, where I will be until sometime late tonight.
Regards, NightStalker

As you wish. Still totally lost why the dummy spit but whether your in or out is fine by me. Nobody is forcing anyone and if your not happy with how things are panning out then that is fine too.
Hilarius and I are trying to be as flexible as possible with this and rely on each individuals honesty as a professional trader. At present I have no reason to doubt the integrity of any member of this trial.
Your imput would be missed. Just let me know when/if you change your mind.

Good Evening
In a remarkable display of transparency and integrity, in circumstances where he might well have declined to do so, Nightstalker has provided me ... as an independent intermediary ... with a copy of his contract note for the purchase of 50,000 PDN
All but 860 of these were acquired at 51 cents, and the 860 at 50 cents produces an average price before transaction costs of 0.509828 ... a trivial & immaterial difference from 51 cents amounting to $8.60 in the total outlay
I trust this resolves the issue and any further comments by anyone should be sent to me by private message
I thank Nightstalker for his frankness in this matter and I do hope that Mosaic ... a long standing, respected and able contributor to IC ... will continue to make his exceptional analytical skills available.
It would be a sad day if a technicality such as this were to affect the friendships which this Forum nourishes so well
An excellent conclusion would be if all parties could put this behind them ... moving forward in firm friendship & treating this like any family problem ... as something to be forgiven with the generosity of which I know they are capable
With Best Wishes
Hilarius
I come in peace to share my thoughts and to shine my candle light on possible long term opportunities

Thank you Bro H for being the intermediary. I admit to a slight error - I was quoting the price of 0.51 from my portfolio manager, but as you can see, the actual average price was a tad under that, and was rounded for entry into the portfolio manager. I only realized this when I got out the certificate to send you. For that error, I apologise.
I too hope that this little tiff/misunderstanding/whatever is now laid to rest, and that Mosaic can see fit to remain in the exercise - after all, he is running second! 
Regards, NightStalker

Hiraius, NightStalker,
Firstly I must apologise to NightStalker for inferring that he was telling porkies.
However, what you are saying does not reconcile with my Course of Sales data, and clearly their is a problem with the data that is being provided.
I use, and rely upon course of sales data on a regular basis. Hence, I want to follow this issue up with my data provider. To assist me to resolve this issue could you please provide the following information if available:
a) the quantity of PDN purchased on thursday 14/10 at $0.51 and at $0.50 (860 already stated)
b) the quantity of PDN purchased on friday 15/10 at $0.51
From a previous post I understand that the purchase was done via CommSec.
Your assistance would be appreciated,
Cheers,
Mosaic

Changing to the real purpose of this thread, I am today pleased that the murderous LUM (Lumacor) part of my original 10 has today delivered the announcement awaited by party faithful for the past year.
It's difficult to tell if a company is stringing along investors, or if their announcements can be relied on.
LUM will have the best possible advertisement (literally) of its potential if and when its sign is in place and working atop 4Times square in the big apple.
Next, Minara Resources (MRE) yesterday announced a great first quarter result yet its price has hardly moved. I reviewed the result - near record production of both nickel and cobalt: Nickel prices sold 50% above same time last year and cobalt 2.7 times last year's prices. Allowing for statutory down-time next March, if MRE were to continue at present production rates and market prices, we are looking at a profit increase greater than 50% higher than last year's $100m - but nowhere in the announcement was guidance provided!! My view is that MRE remains undervalued and is due for a BIG correction.

Mosaic - apology accepted Thank you.
Now, can we all get back to doing what we do best in here - discuss trading, take the p*ss out of each other, and generally have fun? That's what's been missing the last couple of days, so let's get back to it
Regards, NightStalker

Shawky - now that the 'dust' has settled, and just in case there is any lingering perception that my PDN shares somehow were bought at an advantage (they weren't, but never mind), please make the following adjustment if possible:
PDN Sell @0.51 on Fri 15th Oct (i.e. last week)
AOE Buy @0.455 on Fri 22nd Oct (i.e. yesterday)
This gives me one week running at one stock short, with PDN deleted last week, and AOE added as of closing price yesterday. That may make Mosaic and others happy, and given that this is just an exercise, it really doesn't matter to me. I still hold the PDN in my real portfolio, and have been holding AOE for about three weeks anyway.
Hopefully that will put any demons finally to rest, and we can all get on with this.
I did send a personal message to Mosaic with the info he asked for above, just so that full transparency can be maintained. I'm also glad that he has elected to remain in this exercise.
Regards, NightStalker

We tread a fine line in the markets.
Sometimes we need surgical skill to navigate safely through dangerous and unpredictable waters.
Sometimes we need to know that our charts and their data are accurate.
When conflicts arise, blood can be spilled
Shallow wounds heal quickly
Hilarius has shone the torch
That lights a fresh path

I am having some trouble here, Rob, in restraining myself from laughing
BWAHAHAHAHA
Now that chuckle is out of the way, I would just like to say that I really don't want to see myself as somehow having "won" anything over anybody - let's just say a misunderstanding has been resolved
But that is a clever bit of work Rob - heheh And re-introducing some humour is definitely what's needed!
I hope nobody, especially Mosaic, takes offence where none is intended. At least I would use an anaesthetic....

In the interest of balance and unfair play....
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil; for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff, they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of my enemies
